BRAKE- Brake Warning Light
The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or the parking
brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock Brake System problem.
Please have your vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have
failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the vehicle
checked immediately.
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the
MIL after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several typical
driving cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and not require towing.
If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead to
immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. We recommend you do not
operate the vehicle. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.

We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have the vehicle
serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle and
shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound when this light turns on.

CAUTION!
• The metal end fitting from Power Plug (8) may get hot after use, so it should be handledcarefully.
•
Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) can result in sealant
contacting your skin, clothing, and the vehicle’s interior. It can also result in sealant contacting
internal TIREFIT kit components which may cause permanent damage to the kit.
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle closest to traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of being hit when using the TIREFIT kit.
• Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
• If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately 1/4 in. (6 mm) or larger.
• If the tire has any sidewall damage.
• If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire pressure.
• If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
• If the wheel has any damage.
• If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
• Keep TIREFIT away from open flames or heat source.
• A loose TIREFIT kit thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the TIREFIT kit in the place provided. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers,
and others around you.
• Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT to come in contact with hair, eyes, or
clothing. TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through the skin. It causes
skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush immediately with plenty of water if there is any
contact with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon as possible, if there is any contact with
clothing.
• TIREFIT Sealant solution contains latex. In case of an allergic reaction or rash, consult a
physician immediately. Keep TIREFIT out of reach of children. If swallowed, rinse mouth
immediately with plenty of water and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting!
Consult a physician immediately.
• TIREFIT is not a permanent flat tire repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired or
replaced after using TIREFIT. Do not exceed 55 mph (88 km/h) until the tire is repaired or
replaced. Failure to follow this warning can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you,
your passengers, and others around you.

2.Rotate the nut to the left until the winch mechanism stops turning freely. This will allow enough
slack in the cable to allow you to pull the spare tire out from underneath the vehicle.
3. Assemble the winch handle extensions to form the spare tire hook, and pull the spare
tire from under the vehicle.
NOTE:
If either front tire is flat it may be necessary to
jack up the vehicle to remove the compact
spare tire/cover assembly from under the
vehicle.
4. Stand the tire/cover assembly upright and remove the wheel spacer by squeezing the
winch retaining tabs together. Push the re-
tainer through the spare tire to release it
from the wheel.
Preparations For Jacking
1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level surface.Avoid ice or slippery areas.
2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
3. Set the parking brake.
4. Place the shift lever into PARK.
5. Turn OFF the ignition.
NOTE:
Passengers should not remain in the vehicle
when the vehicle is being jacked.
• Block both the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite the jacking position.
For example, if changing the right front tire,
block the left rear wheel.

Jacking Instructions
1. Loosen (but do not remove) the wheel lugnuts by turning them to the left one turn
while the wheel is still on the ground.
2. There are two jack engagement locations on each side of the vehicle body. These
locations are on the sill flange of the vehicle

12. Stow the jack, jack handle and winch handle tools back in the stowage compartment.
13. Check the compact spare tire pressure as soon as possible. Correct the tire pressure, asrequired.
Securing The Spare Tire
1. Assemble the winch handle extensions to form a T-handle and fit the winch T-handle over thedrive nut. Rotate the nut to the left until the winch mechanism stops turning freely. This will
allow enough slack in the cable to allow you to pull the wheel spacer out from under the vehicle.
2. Assemble the winch handle extensions to form the spare tire hook, and pull the wheel spacer from under the vehicle.
3. Turn the compact spare tire so that the valve stem is down, and place the tire into the spare tire/cover assembly. Slide the wheel spacer through the center of the wheel and spare
tire/cover assembly, so that the two retainer tabs snap out and engage the spare tire cover on
the opposite side.
4. Using the winch T-handle, rotate the drive nut to the right until the compact spare tire/cover assembly is drawn into place against the underside of the vehicle.
5. Continue to rotate the nut to the right until you hear the winch mechanism click three times. It cannot be overtightened. Check under the vehicle to ensure the compact spare tire/cover
assembly is positioned correctly against the underside of the vehicle.
Road Tire Installation
Vehicles Equipped With Wheel Covers
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. To ease the installation process for steelwheels with wheel covers, install two lug nuts
on the mounting studs which are on each
side of the valve stem. Install the lug nuts
with the cone shaped end of the nut toward
the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
3. Align the valve notch in the wheel cover with the valve stem on the wheel. Install the cover
by hand, snapping the cover over the two
lug nuts. Do not use a hammer or excessive
force to install the cover.
4. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug nuts.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
