TEMPORARY MOBILITY KIT

Note: The temporary mobility kit sealant compound in the canister is to
be used for one tire only. See your Ford authorized dealer for additional
replacement sealant canisters.

The temporary mobility kit is located in the floor of the cargo area. The
temporary mobility kit consists of an air compressor to reinflate the tire
and a sealing compound in a canister that will seal most punctures
caused by nails or similar objects. This kit will provide a temporary seal
allowing you to drive your vehicle up to 120 miles (200 km) at a
maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h).
