WARNING!
²Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle close to traffic.
Pull far enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when
using the TIREFIT kit.
²Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following
circumstances:
þ If the cut or puncture in the tire tread is approximately 0.24 in. (6 mm)
or larger.
þ If the tire has any sidewall damage.
þ If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire
pressure.
þ If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
þ If the wheel has any damage.
þ If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
²Keep TIREFIT away from open flame or heat source.
²TIREFIT is not a permanent flat tire repair. Have the tire inspected
and repaired or replaced after using TIREFIT. Do not exceed 55 mph
(90 km/h) until having the tire repaired or replaced.
²A 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.
WARNING!

come in contact with hair, eyes, or clothing. TIRE-
FIT is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed
through the skin: It causes skin, eye, and respira-
tory 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.

allergic reaction or rash, consult a physician imme-
diately. Keep TIREFIT out of reach of children. If
