Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0372.
The pressure gauge (8)
may read higher than the
actual tire pressure while
the compressor is on. Turn
the compressor off to get an accurate pressure
reading. The compressor
may be turned on/off until
the correct pressure is
reached.
Caution
If the recommended
pressure cannot be reached
after approximately
25 minutes, the vehicle
should not be driven farther.
The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire
sealant and compressor kit

Remove the power plug
from the accessory power
outlet and unscrew the
inflating hose from the tire
valve. See Roadside
Assistance Program
0439.

compartment on the bottom
of its housing that can be used
to inflate air mattresses,
balls, etc.
