AVENSIS_EE (OM20B44E)
NOTICE
Vehicles with a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat tire.
Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the
wheel beyond repair.
When performing an emergency repair
Perform the emergency repair without removing the nail or screw that has
punctured the tread of the tire. If the object that has punctured the tire is
removed, the repair using the sealant in the emergency tire puncture repair
kit may fail.
When fixing the flat tire
Do not put the valve core on dirty ground or in the sand.
Store it in a clean place.
Do not remove the inside cap of the sealant bottle.
Turn the valve core tool with your hand when screwing it in. If you use
another tool in conjunction with the valve core tool, damage may occur.
Do not operate the compressor continuously for more than 7 minutes. The
motor may overheat and be damaged. Let the compressor cool before
using it again.
Compressor precautions
The compressor power source should be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use.
Do not connect the compressor to 24 V DC or any other power source.
The compressor is an oil-less type. Do not lubricate with oil.
