- Always ensure the valve connector is fully seated to depress the core of the valve stem for proper inflation.
- DO NOT use inflator continuously for more than 10 minutes. Allow unit to cool approximately 25 minutes between uses. Do not leave inflator unattended.
- ALWAYS use a pressure gauge to check tire pressure. DO NOT over inflate.
- Soft inflatables (i.e. rafts, balls, etc.) may not have recommended pressure markings. Be careful not to inflate items beyond their capacity.
- While operating, never block the inflator input or output.
- Keep inflator out of reach of children.

Product Overview
FLAT TIRE REPAIR (AIR + SEALANT) INSTRUCTIONS
Check your tire warranty prior to installation of this product.
NOTE: Seals punctures up to 1/4 in. (6mm) in tread area for flat tire
repair. Correct tire pressure can be found in your vehicle’s owner’s manual or
driver side doorjamb.
-
Select AIR + SEALANT.
NOTE: Lay Flat Tire Repair Kit on the ground facing upward. -
Screw air/sealant hose onto tire’s valve stem.
-
Plug inflator into 12 volt accessory power outlet. Do not run vehicle while inflator is operating. Your vehicle may need to be in accessory or on. Please make sure emergency brake is set and car is in park.
-
To set the Inflate Right™ Technology, press the + or – buttons to desired pressure. The gauge will flash three times and return to current tire pressure. Holding the + or – button will enter into fast-setting mode. Hold and press the power button for 3 seconds to initiate air/sealant mode. Once in air/sealant mode, LED screen will flash three times. Press the power button to start inflation. When the pressure gauge reaches the pre-set value, the inflator will automatically stop inflation. Once desired tire pressure is reached, disconnect the air hose and unplug the power cord. The ON/OFF button can be used to override the pre-set pressure value if required.
Drive two miles with speeds less than 25 miles per hour to disperse sealant throughout the tire, allowing it to seek out and seal the puncture. Recheck tire pressure to verify that the puncture has been sealed.
Slime® provides a quick emergency repair. Treated tires should be repaired by a qualified tire professional at the earliest opportunity to ensure safety and proper cleaning of tire pressure sensor, if so equipped. We recommend treated tire be repaired within 3 days or 100 miles after use of Slime Tire Sealant, whichever comes first. Advise tire professional of product use.
AIR ONLY INSTRUCTIONS
The AIR ONLY mode can also be used for bicycles, sports balls, rafts and other inflatables.
-
Select AIR ONLY.
NOTE: Lay Flat Tire Repair Kit on the ground facing upward. -
Screw air/sealant hose onto tire’s valve stem.
-
Plug inflator into 12 volt accessory power outlet. Do not run vehicle while inflator is operating. Your vehicle may need to be in accessory or on. Please make sure emergency brake is set and car is in park.
-
To set the Inflate Right™ Technology, press the + or – buttons to desired pressure. The gauge will flash three times and return to current tire pressure. Holding the + or – button will enter into fast-setting mode. Press the power button to start inflation. When the pressure gauge reaches the pre-set value, the inflator will automatically stop inflation. Once desired tire pressure is reached, disconnect the air hose and unplug the power cord. The ON/OFF button can be used to override the pre-set pressure value if required.
IMPORTANT! When using the supplied inflatable adapters, the valve depressor adapter (Fig. X) must be used in conjunction with the inflatable adapters. Failure to use the supplied valve depressor adapter with inflatable adapters will result in over-pressurization and failure of the Flat Tire Repair Kit. To install, remove the valve depressor adapter assembly from the back of the Flat Tire Repair Kit. Unscrew the Presta valve adapter and set aside. Thread the valve depressor adapter into the air hose of the Flat Tire Repair Kit (Fig. Y) until fully seated. Thread on the desired inflatable adapter until snug and inflate item.
USING THE DEFLATE BUTTON
The PRESSURE RELEASE ensures optimum PSI pressure. Push the area to deflate the tire if it has been overinflated, or if there is too much air prior to inflation. Check your gauge for the desired PSI level. NOTE: Correct tire pressure can be found in your vehicle’s owner’s manual or driver side doorjamb.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Inflator fails to operate when plugged in:
- Check the power plug and push it firmly into the receptacle, twist back and forth..
- Check receptacle and plug terminals for dirt, or debris. (Use a non conductive probe, not fingers or metal).
- Check vehicle power outlet fuse. It should be 15 amps minimum.
- Check the fuse. It may have blown: 12V fuse is located in the plug adaptor: unscrew the tip, remove fuse, and inspect. If necessary, replace fuse with 15A 250V 5mm x 20mm.
- Check to see if the pre-programmed INFLATE RIGHT digital gauge is set to a lower PSI than your tire currently is reading (i.e., the digital gauge is set to 15psi but your tire is at 20psi; in this scenario, the inflator will not turn on) and set the PSI to the correct tire pressure. Refer to Inflate Right™ Technology operating instructions.
Inflator runs but does not inflate:
- Be sure the air hose valve connector is fully secured on the tire valve.
- Check tire for leaks, and check hose for breaks and leaks at fittings and check valve core for damage.
Inflator runs slowly:
- The inflator may have overheated from excessive use. Shut it off and allow it to cool for 25 minutes.
- The voltage may be too low. Check the condition of your vehicle’s battery.
NOTE: If tire is totally deflated, it is possible that the tire could separate from the rim allowing air to leak out when trying to inflate. In the event this situation occurs, you will have to jack up the tire prior to inflation. Dispose of this product at an e-waste recycling collection point or facility. Do not place in the trash or standard recycling receptacle.
