If the tire pressure is 19 psi (1.3 Bar) or higher:
1.Push the Power Button (4) to turn on Tire Service Kit and inflate the tire to the pres-
sure indicated on the tire and loading information label on the driver-side door open-
ing.
NOTE:
If the tire becomes over-inflated, push the Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure
to the recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
2.Disconnect the Tire Service Kit from the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the valve
stem and unplug from 12 Volt outlet.
3.Place the Tire Service Kit in its proper storage area in the vehicle.
4.Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity at an
authorized dealer or tire service center.
5.Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the instrument panel after the tire has been
repaired.
6.Replace the Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) assembly at your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.Refer to (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement”.
NOTE:
When having the tire serviced, advise the authorized dealer or service center that the
tire has been sealed using the Tire Service Kit.
(F) Sealant Bottle And Hose Replacement:
1.Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) (clear in color).
2.Locate the round Sealant Bottle release button in the recessed area under the sealant
bottle.
3.Push the Sealant Bottle release button.The Sealant Bottle (1) will pop up.Remove the
bottle and dispose of it accordingly.
4.Clean any remaining sealant from the Tire Service Kit housing.
5.Position the new Sealant Bottle (1) in the housing so that the Sealant Hose (6) aligns
with the hose slot in the front of the housing.Push the bottle into the housing.An
audible click will be heard indicating the bottle is locked into place.
6.Verify that the cap is installed on the fitting at the end of the Sealant Hose (6) and
return the hose to its storage area (located on the bottom of the air pump).

CAUTION!
•Mixing of coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology
(OAT) coolant (antifreeze), may result in cooling system damage and may decrease
corrosion protection.Organic Additive Technology (OAT) coolant is different and
should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Technology (HOAT) coolant
(antifreeze).If a non-OAT coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the cooling sys-
tem in an emergency, it should be replaced with the specified coolant (antifreeze)
as soon as possible.
•Do not use water alone or alcohol-based coolant (antifreeze) products.Do not
use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible
with the radiator coolant and may plug the radiator.
•This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based coolant
(antifreeze).Use of propylene glycol-based coolant (antifreeze) is not recom-
mended.

Wheel And Wheel Trim Care
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels, should be
cleaned regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corrosion.
To remove heavy soil and/or excessive brake dust, use MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equiva-
lent or select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner.
CAUTION!
Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes.Do not use
oven cleaner.These products may damage the wheel's protective finish.Avoid automatic
car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel's pro-
tective finish.Only MOPAR Wheel Cleaner or equivalent is recommended.
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
NOTE:
The front and rear wheels are different sizes and cannot be used in place of each other.
Rotate the wheels “side-to-side” as shown in the diagram.
The tires on the front and rear of your
vehicle operate at different loads and per-
form different steering, driving, and braking
functions.For these reasons, they wear at
unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely
rotation of tires.The benefits of rotation
are especially worthwhile with aggressive
tread designs such as those on all season
type tires.Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow and wet traction
levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.The reasons
for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed.
