WARNING!
•Do not attempt to repair 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 operating the jack or repairing a tire.
•Cuts or punctures larger than approximately 0.16 in (4 mm), tire
damage caused by driving with extremely low tire pressure or on
a flat tire, or a damaged wheel can pose a hazard while driving.
TIREFIT should not be used in such circumstances. Do not drive
the vehicle under such circumstances. Contact your nearest autho-
rized dealer for assistance.
•Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT to come in contact
with hair, eyes or clothing. TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, swal-
lowed, or absorbed through the skin: It causes skin, eye, and
respiratory irritation. Any contact with eyes or skin should be
flushed immediately with plenty of water. If clothing comes in
contact with TIREFIT, change clothing as soon as possible.
•In case of allergic reaction or rash, consult a physician immedi-
ately. 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.
•Keep away from open flame or heat source.
