ahead is traveling more quickly than your vehicle
●When the vehicle ahead is traveling at a very low speed
●Immediately after cruise control speed is set
●At the instant the accelerator pedal is depressed

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 trunk while it is connected to the compres-
sor.
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 surface and
remove the air release cap from the
hose before reconnecting the repair
kit.
Turn the compressor switch on and
wait for several seconds, and then
turn it off. Check the tire inflation
pressure.
If the tire inflation pressure is
under 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm 2
or
bar, 19 psi): The puncture cannot
be repaired. Contact any autho-
rized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
If the tire inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm 2
or bar, 19 psi) or higher,

NOTICE
■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 r emoved, repair by the
emergency tire puncture repair kit may not be possible.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the repair kit is not exposed to water,
such as when it is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the
road. If the repair kit vacuums up dust etc., a malfunction may occur.
■Handling the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source should be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use. Do not con-
nect the repair kit to any other source.

sure indicator to impacts. This may cause a malfunction.
■To avoid damage to the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters (vehicles with
the tire pressure warning system)
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and trans-
