Second stage: Checking tire pressure
1. Stop driving after approximately two miles. Refer to theTips for use
of the tire inflation kit for safe operation of the tire inflation kit. Then
check the air pressure of the damaged tire as follows:
• Ensure the compressor is turned off by pressing the “O ” side of the
orange button.
• Remove the hose and the cable with the electrical plug from the kit ’s
storage compartment.
• Remove the valve cap from the sealed tire, then screw the hose firmly
onto the tire ’s air valve.
• Start the engine (only if the vehicle is outdoors or in a
well-ventilated area) to prevent the vehicle’s battery from draining.
• Insert the electrical plug into the vehicle ’s power point.
• Read the air pressure gauge on the inflation kit.
2. If the air pressure reads 19 psi or higher, switch the air compressor on
by pressing the “I” side of the orange button and adjust the air pressure
to the recommended pressure. This pressure can be found on a label
affixed to the B-Pillar. If the air pressure is higher than the label states,
reduce the excess pressure by pressing down on the pressure release
valve (8).

2. Press the red START ENGINE
button on the instrument panel,
then release the button as soon as
the engine starts. Excessive
cranking could damage the starter.

its dangerous effects.
If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer
inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes.
Important ventilating information
If the engine is idling while the vehicle is stopped for a long period of
time, open the windows at least one inch (2.5 cm) or adjust the heating
or air conditioning to bring in fresh air.
