11.The sealant is injected into the tire when the air compressor is
switched on. After the sealant is
injected completely, wait until the
tire in flation pressure increases to
the specified tire in flation pressure.
NOTE
The infl ation pressure may increase
to about 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm2, 3
bar, 43.5 psi) temporarily to inject
the sealant through the valve.
Normally, the in flation pressure
decreases gradually and it reaches
the actual infl ation pressure after
about 30 seconds.
WARNING
Never use the air compressor
above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm2, 3
bar, 43.5 psi):
Using the air compressor at an
in flation pressure above 300 kPa
(3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi)
continuously is dangerous. If the air
compressor overheats, hot air will
be exhausted and you could get
burned.
NOTE
Check the tire in flation pressure
label rear door on the driver's
side for the correct tire in flation
pressure.
Do not operate the air
compressor for a continuous 10
minutes or longer because using
it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.
If the tire in flation pressure does
not increase, repair of the tire is
not possible. If the tire does not
reach the speci fied tire inflation
pressure within 10 minutes, it
may have received extensive
damage. In this case, the repair
using the emergency flat tire
repair kit was not successful.
Contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

cannot be viewed.
14.When the tire in flates to the
specified tire in flation pressure, turn
the air compressor switch o ff, turn
the sleeve of the injection hose to
the left, and pull it out of the tire
valve.
15.Remove the air compressor hose from the injection valve of the
bottle. After that, install the
injection hose to the injection valve
of the bottle to prevent leakage of
any remaining sealant.

CAUTION
The remaining sealant in the hose
may spray out when the hose is
removed. Remove the hose
carefully because you may not be
able to remove the sealant
contacting clothing or other
objects.

warning light will illuminate (page
4-180).
19.After driving the vehicle for about 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles),
connect the air compressor to the
tire using Step 8 of the procedure,
and check the tire in flation pressure
using the tire pressure gauge on the
air compressor. If the tire in flation
pressure is lower than the speci fied
tire in flation pressure, turn the air
compressor on and wait until it
reaches the speci fied tire inflation
pressure.
WARNING
If the tire in flation pressure has
decreased below 130 kPa (1.3
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 18.9 psi), stop
driving and contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer:
The repair using the emergency flat
tire repair kit was not successful.
If you see a decrease in the tire
infl ation pressure, even if Steps 8
to 19 of the procedure are
performed repeatedly, stop
driving:
Contact an Authorized Mazda
