TIREFIT Usage Precautions

• Replace the TIREFIT Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) prior to the expiration date

(printed on the bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the system. Refer to “Sealing

a Tire with TIREFIT” section (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement.”

• The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) are a one tire application use. After each use,

always replace these components immediately at an authorized dealer.

• When the TIREFIT sealant is in a liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will remove

the material from the vehicle or tire and wheel components. Once the sealant dries, it can

easily be peeled off and properly discarded.

• For optimum performance,makesurethe valvestem on the wheel is free of debris before

connecting the TIREFIT kit.

• You can use the TIREFIT air pump to inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with two

needles, located in the Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bottom of the air pump)

for inflating sport balls, rafts, or similar inflatable items. However, use only the Air Pump

Hose (7) and make sure the Mode Select Knob (5) is in the Air Mode when inflating such

items to avoid injecting sealant into them. The TIREFIT Sealant is only intended to seal

punctures less than 1/4” (6 mm) diameter in the tread of your vehicle.

• Do not lift or carry the TIREFIT kit by the hoses.

Sealing A Tire With TIREFIT

(A) Whenever You Stop To Use TIREFIT:

1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.

2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is near

to the ground. This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the valve stem and

keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground. This will provide the best positioning of the kit

when injecting the sealant into the deflated tire and running the air pump. Move the

vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this position before proceeding.

3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission)

and cycle the ignition to the OFF position.

4. Set the parking brake.

(B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:

1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to the Sealant Mode position.

2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end of the

hose.

3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.

4. Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the Sealant

Hose (6) onto the valve stem.

5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power outlet.

6. Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
