 Warning

California Proposition 65

Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle or off-highway motor vehicle can expose you to chemicals, including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle. Certain components of this vehicle, such as airbag modules and seat belt pre-tensioners, may contain Perchlorate Material. Special handling may be required for service or vehicle end-of-life disposal. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

You should not drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) after the repair kit has been used on your tires.

Compressor

The compressor is intended to be used for temporary tire repair and is approved by Polestar. You can also use the compressor to check and adjust the tire pressure on your original tires when needed.

The compressor is an electrical device. When it's time to dispose of it, be sure to follow local regulations related to waste management.

Sealant fluid

The sealant fluid works as a temporary repair. It is effective at sealing a tread puncture but should not be used to seal a puncture in the sidewall of the tire. If the tire has larger slits, cracks or similar damage, you should not use the sealant to repair it.

The bottle of sealant fluid needs to be replaced if the expiration date has passed2. The old bottle is considered hazardous waste.

  1. 1 Also called temporary mobility kit or TMK
  2. 2 See expiration date on bottle.
