FIAT Freemont - Manual (Page 251)

If the sealant (white fluid) does flow through the
Sealant Hose (6):
1. Continue to operate the pump until sealant is no
longer flowing through hose (typically takes 30 -
70 seconds). As the sealant flows through the Seal-
ant Hose (6), the Pressure Gauge (3) can read as
high as 5 Bar. The Pressure Gauge (3) will decrease
quickly from approximately 5 Bar to the actual tire
pressure when the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty.
2. The pump will start to inject air into the tire
immediately after the Sealant Bottle (1) is empty.
Continue to operate the pump and inflate the tire
to the pressure indicated on the tire pressure label
on the driver-side latch pillar (recommended pres-
sure). Check the tire pressure by looking at the
Pressure Gauge (3).
If the tire does not inflate to at least 1.8 Bar
pressure within 15 minutes:
• The tire is too badly damaged. Do not attempt to
drive the vehicle further. Call for assistance.
NOTE: If the tire becomes over-inflated, press the
Deflation Button to reduce the tire pressure to the
recommended inflation pressure before continuing.
If the tire inflates to the recommended pres-
sure or is at least 1.8 Bar pressure within
15 minutes:
1. Press the Power Button (4) to turn off the TIREFIT
kit.
2. Remove the Speed Limit sticker from the top of the
Sealant Bottle (1) and place the sticker on the
instrument panel.
3. Immediately disconnect the Sealant Hose (6) from
the valve stem, reinstall the cap on the fitting at the
end of the hose, and place the TIREFIT kit in the
vehicle storage location. Quickly proceed to (D)
“Drive Vehicle”.
• The metal end fitting from Power Plug
(8) may get hot after use, so it should be
handled carefully.
• Failure to reinstall the cap on the fitting at the
end of the Sealant Hose (6) can result in sealant
contacting your skin, clothing, and the vehicle’s
interior. It can also result in sealant contacting
internalTIREFIT kit components which may cause
permanent damage to the kit.
(D) Drive Vehicle:
Immediately after injecting sealant and inflating the tire,
drive the vehicle 8 km or 10 minutes to ensure distri-
bution of the TIREFIT Sealant within the tire. Do not
exceed 88 km/h.
