spare parts can be obtained and replaced

dealership or tire dealer. Empty sealant
bottles may be disposed of at home;

tire dealer, or in accordance with local
waste disposal regulations.

Note: After the sealing compound has been
used, the maximum vehicle speed is 50 mph
(80 km/h) and the maximum driving
distance is 120 miles (200 kilometers). The
sealed tire should be inspected immediately.

Note: After sealant use, the tire pressure
monitoring system sensor and valve stem
on the wheel must be replaced by an
authorized Ford dealer.

You can check the tire pressure any time
