RC200t_RC F_EE(OM24728E)
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/cm2 or bar, 44 psi) or
400 kPa (4.0 kgf/cm2 or bar, 58
psi), then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will dis-
play the actual tire inflation pres-
sure about 1 minute (15 minutes at
low temperature) after the switch
is turned on.
• Turn the compressor switch off and then check the tire inflationpressure. Being careful not to
over inflate, check and repeat the inflation procedure until the rec-ommended tire inflation pressure
is reached. • If the tire inflation pressure is still lo wer than the recommended level after infla- tion for 10 minutes (35 minutes at low temperature) with the switch on, the tire
is too damaged to be repaired. Turn the compressor switch off and contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds th e recommended level, let out some air to adjust the tire inflation pressure.
( P. 645, 679)
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 wh en 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 trunk while it is connected to the compres-
sor.

After driving, stop your vehicle in a
safe place on a hard, flat surface and
reconnect the compressor.
Turn the compressor switch on and
wait for several seconds, then turn it
off. Check the tire inflation pressure.
If the tire inflation pressure is
below 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2 or
bar, 19 psi): The puncture cannot
be repaired. Contact any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
If the tire inflation pressure is between 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 19 psi)
and a point below the recommended level: The tire can be repaired. Pro-
ceed to step .
If the tire inflation pressure is at the recommended level: Proceed to step .
Turn the compressor switch on to infl ate the tire until the recommended tire
inflation pressure is reached. Drive for about 5 km (3 miles) and then perform
step .
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.
Store the bottle in the trunk while it is connected to the compressor.
