If you must replace your vehicle’s tires with those
that do not have a TPC Spec number, make
sure they are the same size, load range, speed
rating, and construction type (radial and
bias-belted tires) as your vehicle’s original tires.
Your vehicle’s original equipment tires are listed on
the Tire and Loading Information label. This
label is attached to the vehicle’s center pillar
(B-pillar). SeeLoading Your Vehicle on page 264,
for more information about the Tire and Loading
Information label.
Different Size Tires and Wheels
If you add wheels or tires that are a different size
than your original equipment wheels and tires,
this may affect the way your vehicle performs,
including its braking, ride and handling
characteristics, stability, and resistance to rollover.
Additionally, if your vehicle has electronic
systems such as, anti-lock brakes, traction control,
and stability control, the performance of these
systems can be affected.
{CAUTION:
If you add different sized wheels, your
vehicle may not provide an acceptable
level of performance and safety if tires not
recommended for those wheels are
selected. You may increase the chance
that you will crash and suffer serious
injury. Only use Saturn specic wheel and
tire systems developed for your vehicle,
and have them properly installed by a
Saturn certied technician.
SeeBuying New Tires on page 350and
Accessories and Modications on page 287for
additional information.

Tire Sealant
The kit contains a liquid sealant that when injected
into a at tire, might temporarily repair nail holes
or cuts in the tread area of the tire. The tire sealant
cannot repair tire damage caused while driving
on a at tire or a tire that has had a “blow out” or
a tire that has punctures in the sidewall areas.
The tire sealant solution is to be used for a single
tire and can only be used once.
Check the tire sealant expiration date on the
sealant canister. The sealant might not be
as effective beyond the expiration date. If needed,
see your retailer for a replacement canister.
Using the Tire Inator Kit
To use the tire inator kit, do the following:
1. Place the inator kit on the ground and unwrap
the sealant lling hose from the compressor.
2. Remove the air compressor accessory plug
from the unit. To do this, pull the top portion
of the wrapped cord out rst, then the bottom,
and then unsnap the plug. Do not insert the
plug into an accessory outlet yet.
3. Remove the valve stem cap from the at tire
by turning it counterclockwise.
If an object, such as a nail, has penetrated
the tire, do not remove it.

4. Attach the sealant lling hose (A) onto the tire
valve stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.
Make sure the inator kit on/off switch (B) is in
the O (off) position.
5. Plug the air compressor accessory plug (C)
into an accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
SeeAccessory Power Outlet(s) on page 154
for more information.
{CAUTION:
Idling the engine in a closed-in place or
with the climate control system off can
cause deadly carbon monoxide (CO).
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 125.
6. Start the vehicle. SeeStarting the Engine
(Automatic Engine Start/Stop) on page 113
for more information. The vehicle must
be running while using the air compressor.
{CAUTION:
Inating something too much can make it
explode, and you or others could be
injured. Be sure to read the inator
instructions, and inate the tire to its
recommended pressure. Do not exceed
36 psi (248 kPa).

7. Push the inator kit switch to the I (on) position.
The inator kit forces sealant and air into the
tire. Sealant can leak from the puncture
hole until the vehicle is driven and the hole
has sealed.
8. Make sure there is a proper connection
between the tire valve stem and the
sealant lling hose by looking at the air
pressure gage. If there is not a pressure
reading while the compressor is running, the
connection between the inator kit and
the tire is bad.
Check the attachment between the sealant
lling hose and the tire valve stem.
9. Inate the tire up to the recommended
ination pressure, found on the Tire and
Loading Information label located on
the vehicle’s center pillar (B-pillar) below the
vehicle’s door latch, using the air pressure
gage on the top of the unit.
The pressure gage reading is slightly high while
the compressor is on. Turn the compressor off
to get an accurate pressure reading.Notice:If the recommended pressure cannot
be reached after 15 minutes, the vehicle
should not be driven farther. Damage to the
tire is severe and the sealant will not be
effective. Remove the air compressor plug
from the accessory power outlet and unscrew
the inating hose from the tire valve. See
Roadside Assistance Program on page 413for
more information.
10. Push the inator kit switch to the O (off)
position once the correct tire pressure is
obtained.
11. Turn off the engine.
12. Unplug the air compressor accessory plug from
the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
13. Disconnect the sealant lling hose from the
tire valve stem, by turning it counterclockwise,
and replace the tire valve stem cap.
Be careful when handling the tire inator
components as they could be hot after usage.
14. Wrap the sealant lling hose around the air
compressor channel to stow it in its original
location.

15. Stow the air compressor accessory plug back
in the air compressor. To do this, wrap the air
compressor accessory plug, snap in the
plug, and then push in the bottom and then
the top of the wrapped air compressor
accessory plug.
16. If the at tire was
able to inate to the
recommended
ination pressure,
remove the
maximum speed
label from the
sealant canister.
The maximum speed label reminds you to
drive cautiously and not to exceed 55 mph
(90 km/h) until you have the damaged
tire inspected and repaired.
17. Place it in a highly visible location such as the
inside of the upper left corner of the windshield
or to the face of the radio/clock.18. Return the equipment to the proper storage
location in the rear of your vehicle. To do
this, insert the tire inator kit back into
the foam container and place the foam
container onto the storage bracket. Securely
tighten down the foam container with the
foam retainer bolt.
{CAUTION:
Storing the tire inator kit or other
equipment in the passenger compartment
of the vehicle could cause injury. In a
sudden stop or collision, loose equipment
could strike someone. Store the tire
inator kit in the proper place.
19. Reverse Steps 1 through 4 under Accessing
the Tire Inator Kit earlier in this section.
