3207-2. Steps to take in an emergency
RC F Owner's Manual
WARNING
• If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that the
hose will move abruptly due to air
pressure.
• After inflation of the tire has com- pleted, the sealant may splatter when
the hose is disconnected or some air is
let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to
repair the tire. If the procedure is not
followed, the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is
being repaired, as th ere is a chance of
it bursting while the repair operation is
being performed. If you notice any
cracks or deformation of the tire, turn
off the compressor switch and stop the
repair operation immediately.
●The kit may overheat if operated for a
long period of time. Do not operate
the compressor continuously for more
than 35 minutes.
●Parts of the kit become hot during
operation. Be carefu l handling the kit
during and after operation. Do not
touch the metal part around the con-
necting area between the bottle and
compressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warn-
ing sticker to an area other than the
one indicated. If the sticker is attached
to an area where an SRS airbag is
located, such as the pad of the steering
wheel, it may prev ent the SRS airbag
from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid sealant
evenly
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a low
speed. Be especially careful when
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight or
you feel a pull through the steering
wheel, stop the vehicle and check the
following:
• Tire condition. The tire may have sepa- rated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If tire inflation p r e s s u r e i s 1 9 p s i ( 1 3 0 k P a , 1 . 3 k g f / c m
2
or bar) or below, this may indicate
severe tire damage.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency
repair
●Perform the emergency repair with-
out removing the nail or screw that has
punctured the tread of the tire. If the
object that has punc tured the tire is
removed, repair by the emergency tire
puncture repair kit may not be possi-
ble.
●The kit is not waterproof. Make sure
that the kit is not exposed to water,
such as when it is being used in the
rain.
●Do not put the kit directly onto dusty
ground such as sand at the side of the
road. If the kit vacuums up dust etc., a
malfunction may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with the bot-
tle vertical. The kit cannot work prop-
erly if it is laid on its side.
■Handling the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit
●The compressor power source should
be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use.
Do not connect the compressor to any
other source.
●If gasoline splatters on the kit, the kit
may deteriorate. Take care not to allow
gasoline to contact it.

3528-1. Specifications
RC F Owner's Manual
■Traction AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C, and they
represent the tire’s ability to stop on
wet pavement as measured under con-
trolled conditions on specified govern-
ment test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete.
A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to
this tire is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not include
cornering (turning) traction.
■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire
to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of perfor-
mance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperatur e grades of a tire
assume that it is properly inflated and not
overloaded.
Excessive speed, unde rinflation, or exces-
sive loading, either separately or in combi-
nation, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.
Glossary of tire terminology
Tire related termMeaning
Cold tire inflation pressure

three hours or more, or has not been driven more
than 1 mile or 1.5 km under that condition
Maximum inflation pressureThe maximum cold inflated pressure to which a tire
may be inflated, shown on the sidewall of the tire
Recommended inflation pressureCold tire inflation pressure recommended by a
manufacturer
Accessory weight
The combined weight (in excess of those standard
items which may be replaced) of automatic trans-
mission, power steering, power brakes, power win-
dows, power seats, radio and heater, to the extent
that these items are available as factory-installed
equipment (whether installed or not)
