5. Slide the base of the tire sealantcanister (3) into the slot on the top
of the compressor (6) to hold it
upright.
Make sure the tire valve stem is
positioned close to the ground so
the hose will reach it.
6. Remove the valve stem cap from the flat tire by turning it
counterclockwise.
7. Attach the sealant/air hose (2) tothe tire valve stem by turning it
clockwise until tight. 8. Plug the power plug (9) into the
accessory power outlet in the
vehicle. Unplug all items from
other accessory power outlets. See
Power Outlets 096.
Do not pinch the power plug cord
in the door or window.
9. Start the vehicle. The vehicle must be running while using the air
compressor.
10. Press the on/off button (5) to turn the tire sealant and compressor
kit on.
The compressor will inject sealant
and air into the tire.
The pressure gauge (8) 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
inflates with air only.
11. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge (8). The
recommended inflation pressure can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Tire
Pressure 0325.
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 cannot inflate the tire. Remove
the power plug from the accessory
power outlet and unscrew the
inflating hose from the tire valve.
12. Press the on/off button (5) to turn the tire sealant and compressor
kit off.

VEHICLE CARE 343
The tire is not sealed and will
continue to leak air until the
vehicle is driven and the sealant is
distributed in the tire. Therefore,
Steps 13–21 must be done
immediately after Step 12.
Be careful while handling the tire
sealant and compressor kit as it
could be warm after usage.
13. Unplug the power plug (9) from the accessory power outlet in the
vehicle.
14. Turn the sealant/air hose (2) counterclockwise to remove it from
the tire valve stem.
15. Replace the tire valve stem cap.
16. Remove the tire sealant canister (4) from the slot on top of the
compressor (6).
17. Turn the air only hose (10) counterclockwise to remove it from
the tire sealant canister inlet
valve (1).
18. Turn the sealant/air hose (2) clockwise onto the sealant canister
inlet valve (1) to prevent sealant
leakage. 19. Return the air only hose (10) and
power plug (9) back to their
original storage location.
20. If the flat tire was able to inflate tothe recommended inflation
pressure, remove the maximum
speed label from the sealant
canister and place it in a highly
visible location.
Do not exceed the speed on this
label until the damaged tire is
repaired or replaced.
21. Return the equipment to its original storage location in the
vehicle.
22. Immediately drive the vehicle 8 km (5 mi) to distribute the sealant in
the tire.
23. Stop at a safe location and check the tire pressure. Refer to
Steps 1–10 under “Using the Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit
without Sealant to Inflate a Tire
(Not Punctured).”
If the tire pressure has fallen more
than 68 kPa (10 psi) below the
recommended inflation pressure,
stop driving the vehicle. The tire is
too severely damaged and the tire
sealant cannot seal the tire.
If the tire pressure has not dropped
more than 68 kPa (10 psi) from the
recommended inflation pressure,
inflate the tire to the
recommended inflation pressure.
24. Wipe off any sealant from the wheel, tire, or vehicle.
25. Dispose of the used tire sealant canister (4) at a local dealer or in
accordance with local state codes
and practices.
26. Replace it with a new canister available from your dealer.
27. After temporarily sealing a tire using the tire sealant and
compressor kit, take the vehicle to
an authorized dealer within 161 km
(100 mi) of driving to have the tire
repaired or replaced.

16. Tighten the wheel nuts firmly withthe wheel wrench.
When reinstalling the wheel cover or
center cap on the full-size tire, tighten
all five plastic caps hand snug with
the aid of the wheel wrench and
tighten them with the wheel wrench
an additional one-quarter of a turn.
Caution
Wheel covers will not fit on the
vehicle's compact spare. If you try
to put a wheel cover on the
compact spare, the cover or the
spare could be damaged.
Storing a Flat or Spare Tire and
Tools
{Warning
Storing a jack, a tire, 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 all these in
the proper place. To store the flat or spare tire and
tools:
1. Open the liftgate. See Liftgate019.
2. Replace the jack and tools in their original storage location.
3. Lower the load floor.
4. Place the tire, lying flat, in the rear storage compartment.
5. Place the loop end of the strap through the liftgate striker.
6. Route the strap through the wheelas shown.
7. Attach the hook to the loop end of the strap.
8. Tighten the strap. 9. Replace the cargo cover,
if equipped.
10. Close the liftgate and make sure it is fully latched.
The compact spare is for temporary
use only. Replace the compact spare
tire with a full-size tire as soon as
you can.
Compact Spare Tire
{Warning
Driving with more than one
compact spare tire at a time could
result in loss of braking and
handling. This could lead to a crash
and you or others could be injured.
Use only one compact spare tire at
a time.
If this vehicle has a compact spare
tire, it was fully inflated when new;
however, it can lose air over time.
Check the inflation pressure regularly.
It should be 420 kPa (60 psi).
Stop as soon as possible and check
that the spare tire is correctly inflated
after being installed on the vehicle.

Additional Maintenance
and Care
Your vehicle is an important
investment and caring for it properly
may help to avoid future costly
repairs. To maintain vehicle
performance, additional maintenance
services may be required.
It is recommended that your dealer
perform these services —their trained
dealer technicians know your vehicle
best. Your dealer can also perform a
thorough assessment with a
multi-point inspection to recommend
when your vehicle may need
attention.
The following list is intended to
explain the services and conditions to
look for that may indicate services are
required.

the Wi-Fi hotspot and myCadillac
mobile app. Make these passwords
different from each other and use a
combination of letters and numbers
to increase the security.
.Change the default name of the
SSID (Service Set Identifier). This is
your network’s name that is visible
to other wireless devices. Choose a
unique name and avoid family
names or vehicle descriptions.
Wi-Fi Hotspot (If Equipped)
The vehicle may have a built-in Wi-Fi
hotspot that provides access to the

password, and on some vehicles,
the connection type (no Internet
connection, 3G, 4G, 4G LTE), and
signal quality (poor, good,
excellent). The LTE icon shows
connection to Wi-Fi. It is possible
that the icon may not illuminate
even though the vehicle has an
active connection.
3. To change the SSID or password, press
Qor call 1-888-4ONSTAR to
connect with an Advisor. On some
vehicles, the SSID and password
can be changed in the Wi-Fi
