■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The sealant has a limited lifespan. The expiry date is shown on the bottle. The sealant
should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact your Lexus dealer for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used only once to
temporarily repair a single tire. If the sealant has been used and need to be purchased,
contact your Lexus dealer.
●The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -40 °F (-40 °C) to
140 °F (60 °C).
●The repair kit is exclusively designed for size and type of tires originally installed on your
vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a differen t size than the original ones, or for any other
purposes.
●If the sealant gets on yo ur clothes, it may stain.
●If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the stain may not be
removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe away the sealant with a wet
cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use the emergency tire puncture repair kit to check or to adjust the tire pres-
sure.
■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 releas e cap from the hose and then
reconnect the hose.
Turn the compressor switch on and wait for several seconds, and then turn it off. Check
that the air pressure indicator shows the recommended level. ( →P. 528)
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.
■The valve of a tire that has been repaired
●After a tire is repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit, the valve should be
replaced.
●After a tire is repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit, even if the tire infla-
tion 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 expi ry date occasionally.
The expiry date is shown on the bottle.
Do not use sealant whose expiry date has al ready passed. Otherwise, repairs conducted
using the emergency tire puncture repa ir 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.
