Practical hints<br />

Flat tire<br />

After 5 minutes, the pressure gauge must<br />

display at least 26 psi (1.8 bar). The air<br />

hose can become hot during inflation.<br />

Please exercise appropriate caution.<br />

If this tire inflation pressure is not attained,<br />

turn off the electric air pump,<br />

detach the filler hose from the tire<br />

valve, and drive vehicle back and forth<br />

very slowly approximately 30 ft (10 m).<br />

This serves to better distribute the<br />

TIREFIT sealant material inside the tire.<br />

Unscrew the air pump’s air hose 5<br />

from flange 6 of the TIREFIT<br />

container.<br />

Screw air hose 5 onto tire valve 7.<br />

Inflate the tire again.<br />
