Auris Touring Sports_EE (OM12G98E)
Before repairing the tire
Stop the vehicle in a safe place on a hard, flat surface.
Set the parking brake.
Shift the shift lever to P (Multidrive) or N (manual transmission).
Stop the engine.
Turn on the emergency flashers. (P. 480)
If you have a flat tire (vehicles with an
emergency tire puncture repair kit)
Your vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire, but instead is equipped
with an emergency tire puncture repair kit.
A puncture caused by a nail or screw passing through the tire tread can
be repaired temporarily using the emergency tire puncture repair kit.
(The kit contains a bottle of sealant. The sealant can be used only once
to temporarily repair one tire without removing the nail or screw from
the tire.) Depending on the damage, this kit cannot be used to repair the
tire. (P. 544)
After temporarily repairing the tire with the kit, have the tire repaired or
replaced by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional. Repairs conducted using the
emergency tire puncture repair kit are only a temporary measure. Have
the tire repaired and replaced as soon as possible.

Connect the bottle to the com-
pressor.
As shown in the illustration, insert
the bottle vertically into the com-
pressor to connect making sure
that the claw on the bottle's neck is
hooked onto the cutout of the com-
pressor case.
Check the specified tire inflation pressure.
Tire inflation pressure is specified on the label as shown. (P. 599)
Start the vehicle’s engine.
To inject the sealant and inflate
the tire, turn the compressor
switch on.

When trouble arises
Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will surge
and then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire infla-
tion pressure about 1 minute
(5 minutes at low tempera-
ture) after the switch is
turned on.
Inflate the tire until the speci-
fied air pressure.
• Turn the compressor switch off
and then check the tire inflation
pressure. Being careful not to
over inflate, check and repeat
the inflation procedure until the
specified tire inflation pressure
is reached.
• If the tire inflation pressure is
still lower than the specified
point after inflation for 35 min-
utes with the switch on, the tire
is too damaged to be repaired.
Turn the compressor switch off
and contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure
exceeds the specified air pres-
sure, let out some air to adjust
the tire inflation pressure.

With the compressor switch off, disconnect the hose from the valve
on the tire and then pull out the power plug from the power outlet
socket.
Some sealant may leak when the hose is removed.
Install the valve cap onto the valve of the emergency repaired tire.
Attach the air release cap to the
end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not
attached, the sealant may leak and
the vehicle may get dirty.
Temporarily store the bottle in the luggage compartment while it is
connected to the compressor.
To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, immediately drive
safely for about 5 km (3 miles) below 80 km/h (50 mph).
After driving for about 5 km (3
miles), stop your vehicle in a
safe place on a hard, flat sur-
face and remove the air release
cap from the hose before
reconnecting the repair kit.
