Warning! When replacing a blown fuse, always
use an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of
higher amp rating. Never replace a blown
fuse with metal wires or any other material.
Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or
disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact an authorized dealer.
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.
If any lights, accessories, or controls do
not work, inspect the appropriate circuit
protector. If a fuse has blown, the inside
element will be melted. If the same fuse
blows again, go to an authorized dealer
as soon as possible.07031502-201-001

10. Install the bottle to the air
compressor and push it in until the left
and right tabs are engaged securely. 11. Insert the air compressor plug into
the accessory socket inside the vehicle
and place the ignition to ACC.
Note: When inserting the air
compressor plug into or removing it
from the accessory socket, make sure
that the air compressor switch is off.
When turning the air compressor on/off,
use the air compressor switch. Before
checking the tire inflation pressure using
the tire pressure gauge, turn the air
compressor switch off.
12. The sealant is injected into the tire
when the air compressor is switched
on. After the sealant is injected
completely, wait until the tire inflation
pressure increases to the specified tire
inflation pressure. For the correct
pressure, check the tire inflation
pressure label on the driver's door
frame.
Note: The inflation pressure may
increase to about 43.5 psi (3 Bar)
temporarily to inject the sealant through
the valve. Normally, the inflation
pressure decreases gradually and it
reaches the actual inflation pressure
after about 30 seconds. Warning!Never use the air compressor above 3 Bar
(43.5 psi). Using the air compressor at an
inflation pressure above 3 Bar (43.5 psi)
continuously is dangerous. If the air
compressor overheats, hot air will be
exhausted and you could get burned.
Caution! If the tire inflation pressure does not
increase, repair of the tire is not possible. If
the tire does not reach the specified tire
inflation pressure within 10 minutes, it may
have received extensive damage. In this
case, the repair using the tire service kit
was not successful.
Do not operate the air compressor for a
continuous 10 minutes or longer because
using it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.
13. Adhere the speed restriction sticker
to an area where it can be viewed easily
by the driver.08020202-03A-004AB

12. Pull out the injection hose from the
valve.
13. Reinsert the valve core into the
valve and turn it clockwise to install.
Note:
The tire sealant cannot be reused.
If the tire sealant kit has been used, or
is expired, purchase new one at an
authorized dealer.
Do not throw away the empty tire
sealant bottle after use. Return the
empty tire sealant bottle to an
authorized dealer when replacing the
tire. The empty tire sealant bottle will
need to be used to extract and
dispose of the used sealant from the
tire.
14. Install the injection hose to the tab
of the bottle to prevent leakage of any
remaining sealant. 15. Adhere the speed restriction sticker
to an area where it can be viewed easily
by the driver.
Warning!Do not adhere the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering wheel.
Adhering the speed restriction sticker to
the padded area on the steering wheel is
dangerous because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting in
serious injury. In addition, do not adhere
the sticker to areas where warning lights or
the speedometer cannot be viewed.
16. Pull out the air compressor hose
and the air compressor plug from the
air compressor. 17. Install the air compressor hose to
the tire valve.
18. Insert the air compressor plug into
the accessory socket inside the vehicle
and place the ignition to ACC.
19. Turn the air compressor switch on
and inflate the tire carefully to the
correct inflation pressure. For the
correct pressure, check the tire inflation
pressure label on the driver's door
frame.
Note: When inserting the air
compressor plug into or removing it
from the accessory socket, make sure
that the air compressor switch is off.
When turning the air compressor on/off,
use the air compressor switch. Before
checking the tire inflation pressure using
the tire pressure gauge, turn the air
compressor switch off.08020202-03A-007AB
