  2. Connect between compressor and the vehicle power outlet using the cable and connectors.

  1. Make the ENGINE START/STOP button position on or ignition switch position on.
  2. Switch on the compressor and let it run for approximately 5 ~ 7 minutes to fill the sealant up to proper pressure. (refer to "Tires and wheels"). The inflation pressure of the tire after filling is unimportant and will be checked/corrected later. Be careful not to overinflate the tire and stay away from the tire when filling it.

    When the tire and wheel are damaged, do not use Tire Mobility Kit for your safety.
