How to Use the Tire Repair Kit
All Canadian models with automatictransmission
To reduce weight, your vehicle is
equipped with a tire repair kit instead
of a spare tire. This kit will allow you
to temporarily repair a flat tire under
the following conditions:
● Only one tire is flat.
● The puncture is smaller than
3/16ths of an inch (4 mm).
● The puncture is located within the tread.
● The wheel rim is not damaged.
● The tire bead is seated.
When making a temporary repair,
carefully follow all instructions in this
owner's manual and in the
instructions that came with the kit. If you have a flat tire while driving,
park the vehicle on a level surface in
a safe place, put the transmission in
Park (P), set the parking brake, and
turn the hazard lights on.
Thoroughly examine the tire for a
puncture or other damage.
If a puncture is wider than 3/16ths of
an inch (4 mm), or is located in the
tire sidewall, do not attempt to repair
the tire. Have your vehicle towed to a
Honda service center. In Canada or
the continental U.S.A. simply call 1-
800-465-PLUS (7587) for Honda Plus
Roadside Assistance.
If the damage is smaller than 3/16ths
of an inch (4 mm) and within the tire
tread, proceed with the followinginstructions.
1. Park vehicle on a level surface in a
safe place. Set shifter lever into
PARK and engage the parking
brake. Turn hazard light on.
Remove valve cap from tire valve.
