5207-2. Steps to take in an emergency
GS450h_300h_OM_OM30F92E_(EE)
■If the tire is inflated to mo re than the recommended level
Disconnect the hose from the valve.
Disconnect the hose from the valve, remove the air release cap from the hose and then
reconnect the hose.
Turn the compressor switch on and wait for se veral seconds, and then turn it off. Check
that the air pressure indicator shows the recommended level. ( P. 555)
If the air pressure is lower than the reco mmended level, turn the compressor switch on
again and repeat the inflation procedure un til the recommended pressure is reached.
■After a tire is repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The tire pressure warning valve an d transmitter should be replaced.
●Vehicles with the tire pressure warning system: Even if the tire inflation pressure is at the
recommended level, the tire pressure warning light may come on/flash.
■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occasionally.
The expiry date is shown on the bottle.
Do not use sealant whose expiry date has already passed. Otherwise, repairs conducted
using the emergency tire puncture repair kit may not be performed properly.Install the air release cap to the end of the
hose and push the protrusion on the air
release cap into the tire valve to let some air
out.
WARNING
■Caution while driving
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause an accident.
●The emergency tire puncture repair kit is made exclusively for your vehicle. Do not
use it on other vehicles.
●Do not use the emergency tire puncture repair kit for tires that are a different size
than the specified ones or fo
r any other purpose. Doing so may cause the tires to not
be repaired properly.
■Precautions for use of the sealant
●Ingesting the sealant is hazardous to your health. If you ingest sealant, consume as
much water as possible, and then immediately consult a doctor.
●If sealant gets in eyes or adheres to skin, i mmediately wash it off with water. If discom-
fort persists, consult a doctor.

When trouble arises
GS450h_300h_OM_OM30F92E_(EE)
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the hybrid system is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical componen ts when the vehicle is running at a low
speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle
is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of certain electrical appli-
ances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the 12-volt battery may discharge, and the
hybrid system may be unable to start. (The 12-volt battery recharges automatically while
the hybrid system is operating.)
■When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart entry & start
system when the 12-volt battery is discharged. Use the wireless remote control or the
mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery has
recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The power switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is
reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in before the 12-volt battery was
discharged. Before disconnecting the 12-v olt battery, turn the power switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the power switch was in before the 12-volt battery dis-
charged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
WARNING
■Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flammable gas
that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
●Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that it is not
unintentionally in contact with any other than the intended terminal.
●Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” terminal to come
into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area, such as brackets or
unpainted metal.
●Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact with each
other.
●Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near the 12-volt
battery.
