Before performing emergency repair
Check the degree of the tire damage. A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire puncture
repair kit if the damage is caused
by a nail or screw passing
through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail orscrew from the tire. Removing
the object may widen the
opening and disenable emer-
gency repair with the kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the vehicle until the area
of the puncture, if known, is
positioned at the top of the
tire.

Tire inflation pressure is speci-
fied on the label in the glove box
as shown. ( →P. 521)

Inflate the tire until the recom-
mended pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will spike to
300 kPa (3.0 kgf/cm
2 or bar,
44 psi) or 400 kPa (4.0 kgf/
cm
2 or bar, 58 psi), then grad-
ually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire inflation
pressure about 1 minute after
the switch is turned on.
• Turn the compressor switch
off and then check the tire
inflation pressure. Being care-
ful not to over inflate, check
and repeat the inflation proce-
dure until the recommended
tire inflation pressure is
reached.
• If the needle of the air pres-
sure gauge reaches the red
zone (450 kPa [4.5 kgf/cm
2 or
bar, 65 psi] or more), there
may be a malfunction in the
tire or in the kit itself. Stop
operation immediately.

• If the tire inflation pressure is still lower than the recom-
mended level after inflation for
10 minutes with the switch on,
the tire is too damaged to be
repaired. Turn the compressor
switch off and contact any
authorized Toyota dealer, tire
dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped
professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure
exceeds the recommended
level, let out some air to adjust
the tire inflation pressure.
(→ P. 476)
Disconnect the hose from the valve on the tire and then pull
out the power plug from the cigarette lighter socket.
To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, immediately
drive for about 5 km (3 miles).
After driving for about 5 km (3
miles), stop your vehicle in a
safe place on a hard, flat surface
and reconnect the compressor.STEP12
