Using The Power Button
• Push and release the Power Button (4) once to turn On the TIREFIT kit. Push and release the
Power Button (4) again to turn Off the TIREFIT kit.
Using The Deflation Button
• Press the Deflation Button (2) to reduce the air pressure in the tire if it becomes over-inflated.
TIREFIT Usage Precautions
• Replace the TIREFIT Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) prior to the expiration date
(printed on the bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the system. Refer to “Sealing a
Tire with TIREFIT” section (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement.”
• The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) are a one tire application use. After each use,
always replace these components immediately at an authorized dealer.
• When the TIREFIT sealant is in a liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the
material from the vehicle or tire and wheel components. Once the sealant dries, it can easily be
peeled off and properly discarded.
• For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem on the wheel is free of debris before
connecting the TIREFIT kit.
• You can use the TIREFIT air pump to inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with two needles,
located in the Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bottom of the air pump) for inflating
sport balls, rafts, or similar inflatable items. However, use only the Air Pump Hose (7) and make
sure the Mode Select Knob (5) is in the Air Mode when inflating such items to avoid injecting
sealant into them. The TIREFIT Sealant is only intended to seal punctures less than 1/4”
(6 mm) diameter in the tread of your vehicle.
• Do not lift or carry the TIREFIT kit by the hoses.
Sealing A Tire With TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that is near to the
ground. This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the valve stem and keep the
TIREFIT kit flat on the ground. This will provide the best positioning of the kit when injecting
the sealant into the deflated tire and running the air pump. Move the vehicle as necessary to
place the valve stem in this position before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmission) and
cycle the ignition to the OFF position.
4. Set the parking brake.
