light BUICK ENCLAVE 2009 Owner's Manual

When using the tire sealant and
compressor kit during cold
temperatures, warm the kit in a
heated environment for 5 minutes.
This will help to inate the tire faster.
Always do a safety check rst.
SeeIf a Tire Goes Flat on
page 5-56. Do not remove any
objects that have penetrated the tire.
1. Remove the tire sealant and
compressor kit from its storage
location. SeeTire Sealant
and Compressor Kit Storage on
page 5-70.
2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (F)
and the power plug (H).
3. Place the kit on the ground.
Make sure the tire valve
stem is positioned close to the
ground so the hose will reach it.4. Remove the valve stem cap from
the at tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F)
onto the tire valve stem. Turn
it clockwise until it is tight.
6. Plug the power plug (H) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items
from other accessory power
outlets. SeeAccessory Power
Outlet(s) on page 3-18.
If the vehicle has an accessory
power outlet, do not use the
cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette
lighter, use the cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug
cord in the door or window.7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle
must be running while using
the air compressor.
8. Turn the selector switch (A)
counterclockwise to the Sealant +
Air position.
9. Press the on/off (B) button to
turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject
sealant and air into the tire.
The pressure gage (C) will initially
show a high pressure while the
compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is
completely dispersed into the tire,
the pressure will quickly drop and
start to rise again as the tire
inates with air only.

The compressor will inate the
tire with air only.
10. Inate the tire to the
recommended ination pressure
using the pressure gage (C).
The recommended ination
pressure can be found on the
Tire and Loading Information
label. SeeInflation - Tire
Pressure on page 5-42.The pressure gage (C) may
read higher than the actual tire
pressure while the compressor
is on. Turn the compressor off to
get an accurate reading. The
compressor may be turned on/off
until the correct pressure is
reached.
If you inate the tire higher than
the recommended pressure you
can adjust the excess pressure
by pressing the pressure deation
button (D), if equipped, until
the proper pressure reading is
reached. This option is only
functional when using the air
only hose (G).
11. Press the on/off button (B) to
turn the tire sealant and
compressor kit off.
Be careful while handling the tire
sealant and compressor kit as
it could be warm after usage.

the accessory power outlet in
the vehicle.

Compact Spare Tire
The compact spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, was fully inated
when the vehicle was new, however,
it can lose air after a time. Check
the ination pressure regularly.
It should be 60 psi (420 kPa).
After installing the compact spare
on the vehicle, stop as soon
as possible and make sure the
spare tire is correctly inated. The
compact spare is made to perform
well at speeds up to 65 mph
(105 km/h) for distances up to
3,000 miles (5 000 km), so you can
nish your trip and have the
full-size tire repaired or replaced at
your convenience. Of course, it
is best to replace the spare with a
full-size tire as soon as possible.
The spare tire will last longer and
be in good shape in case it is
needed again.Notice:When the compact spare
is installed, do not take the vehicle
through an automatic car wash
with guide rails. The compact
spare can get caught on the rails
which can damage the tire, wheel
and other parts of the vehicle.
Do not use the compact spare on
other vehicles.
And do not mix the compact spare
tire or wheel with other wheels
or tires. They will not t. Keep the
spare tire and its wheel together.
The All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system
will be automatically disabled
when you use the compact spare.
To restore the AWD and prevent
excessive wear on the clutch in your
AWD, replace the compact spare
tire with a full-size tire as soon
as possible.
Notice:Tire chains will not t the
compact spare. Using them can
damage the vehicle and can
damage the chains too. Do not use
tire chains on the compact spare.
Appearance Care
Interior Cleaning
The vehicle’s interior will continue
to look its best if it is cleaned often.
Although not always visible, dust
and dirt can accumulate on the
upholstery. Dirt can damage carpet,
fabric, leather, and plastic surfaces.
Regular vacuuming is recommended
to remove particles from the
upholstery. It is important to keep
the upholstery from becoming and
remaining heavily soiled. Soils
should be removed as quickly as
possible. The vehicle’s interior may
experience extremes of heat that
could cause stains to set rapidly.
Lighter colored interiors may
require more frequent cleaning.
Use care because newspapers and
garments that transfer color to home
furnishings may also transfer color
to the vehicle’s interior.
Service and Appearance Care 5-83

Instrument Panel, Vinyl,
and Other Plastic
Surfaces
A soft cloth dampened with water
may be used to remove dust.
If a more thorough cleaning is
necessary, a clean soft cloth
dampened with a mild soap solution
can be used to gently remove
dust and dirt. Never use spot lifters
or removers on plastic surfaces.
Many commercial cleaners
and coatings that are sold to
preserve and protect soft plastic
surfaces may permanently change
the appearance and feel of the
interior and are not recommended.
Do not use silicone or wax-based
products, or those containing
organic solvents to clean the
vehicle’s interior because they can
alter the appearance by increasing
the gloss in a non-uniform manner.
Some commercial products may
increase gloss on the instrument
panel. The increase in gloss
may cause annoying reections inthe windshield and even make it
difficult to see through the
windshield under certain conditions.Care of Safety Belts
Keep belts clean and dry.
{CAUTION
Do not bleach or dye safety belts.
It may severely weaken them. In
a crash, they might not be able to
provide adequate protection.
Clean safety belts only with mild
soap and lukewarm water.
Weatherstrips
Silicone grease on weatherstrips will
make them last longer, seal
better, and not stick or squeak.
Apply silicone grease with a clean
cloth. During very cold, damp
weather frequent application may be
required. SeeRecommended
Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-12.
Washing Your Vehicle
The best way to preserve the
vehicle’s nish is to keep it clean by
washing it often.
Notice:Certain cleaners contain
chemicals that can damage the
emblems or nameplates on the
vehicle. Check the cleaning
product label. If it states that it
should not be used on plastic
parts, do not use it on the vehicle
or damage may occur and it would
not be covered by the warranty.
Do not wash the vehicle in direct
sunlight. Use a car washing
soap. Do not use cleaning agents
that are petroleum based or
that contain acid or abrasives, as
they can damage the paint, metal or
plastic on the vehicle. Approved
cleaning products can be obtained
from your dealer/retailer. Follow
all manufacturers’ directions
regarding correct product usage,
necessary safety precautions
and appropriate disposal of any
vehicle care product.

Maintenance Footnotes
(a)
Visually inspect brake lines
and hoses for proper hook-up,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Inspect disc brake pads for wear
and rotors for surface condition.
Inspect other brake parts, including
calipers, parking brake, etc.
Check parking brake adjustment.
(b) Visually inspect front and
rear suspension and steering
system for damaged, loose, or
missing parts or signs of wear. Inspect power steering lines and
hoses for proper hook-up, binding,
leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
(c)
Visually inspect hoses and have
them replaced if they are cracked,
swollen, or deteriorated. Inspect all
pipes, fittings and clamps; replace
with genuine parts as needed. To
help ensure proper operation, a
pressure test of the cooling system
and pressure cap and cleaning the
outside of the radiator and air
conditioning condenser is
recommended at least once a year. (d)
Inspect wiper blades for wear,
cracking, or contamination. Clean the
windshield and wiper blades, if
contaminated. Replace wiper blades
that are worn or damaged. See

Replacement on page 5-36 and
Windshield, Backglass, and Wiper
Blades on page 5-88 for more
information.
(e) Make sure the safety belt
reminder light and safety belt
assemblies are working properly.
Look for any other loose or
damaged safety belt system parts.
