3587-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Stop the vehicle in a safe
place on a hard, flat surface.
Set the parking brake.
Shift the shift lever to P (auto-
matic transmission) or R
(manual transmission).
Stop the engine.
Turn on the emergency flash-
ers. ( P.338)
Check the degree of the tire damage.
A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a nail or screw pass-
ing through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail or screw from the tire. Removing
the object may widen the
opening and disenable emer-
gency repair with the kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the vehicle until the
area of the puncture, if
known, is positioned at the
top of the tire.
■A flat tire that cannot be
repaired with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit
In the following cases, the tire can-
not be repaired with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit. Contact your
Toyota dealer.
●When the tire is damaged due to
driving without sufficient air pres-
sure
●When the tire lost air pressure due
to a crack or damage in the tire
sidewall
●When the tire is visibly separated
from the wheel
●When the cut or damage to the
tread is 0.16 in. (4 mm) long or
If you have a flat tire
Your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tire, but instead
is equipped with an emer-
gency tire puncture repair
kit.
A puncture caused by a nail
or screw passing through
the tire tread can be
repaired temporarily with
the emergency tire puncture
repair kit.
WARNING
■If you have a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire.
Driving even a short distance with
a flat tire can damage the tire and
the wheel beyond repair. Driving
with a flat tire may cause a cir-
cumferential groove on the side
wall. In such a case, the tire may
explode when using the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit,
resulting in death or serious injury.

When trouble arises
gency tire puncture repair kit can
be used only once to temporarily
repair a single tire. If the sealant
has been used and needs to be
purchased, contact your Toyota
dealer. The compressor is reus-
able.
●The sealant can be used when the
outside temperature is from -22°F
(-30°C) to 140°F (60°C).
●The kit is exclusively designed for
size and type of tires originally
installed on your vehicle. Do not
use it for tires that a different size
than the original ones, or for any
other purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your 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. Immedi-
ately wipe away the sealant with a
wet cloth.
●During operation of the 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 pressure.
●In extremely low temperatures
-22°F to -4°F (-30°C to -20°C), the
viscosity of the sealant increases
and the sealant will flow more
slowly. In such temperatures,
bring the sealant into the vehicle
to warm it up before use.
■Note for checking the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occa-
sionally.
The expiry date is shown on the bot-
tle. Do not use sealant whose expiry
date has already passed. Other-
wise, repairs conducted using the
emergency tire puncture repair kit
may not be performed properly.
1 Remove the luggage mat.
2 Take out the emergency tire
puncture repair kits.

WARNING
■Caution while driving
Observe the following precau-
tions.
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 for any other
purpose. Doing so may cause
the tires to not be repaired prop-
erly.
■Precautions for use of the
sealant
●Ingesting the sealant is hazard-
ous to your health. If you ingest
sealant, consume as much
water as possible, then immedi-
ately consult a doctor.
●If sealant gets in eyes or
adheres to skin, immediately
wash it off with water. If discom-
fort persists, consult a doctor.
●If a person who is allergic to nat-
ural rubber comes in contact the
sealant, allergy symptoms may
occur.

8 To inject the sealant and
inflate the tire, turn the com-
pressor switch on.
9 Adjust the air pressure to the
appropriate level (green zone
of the air gauge).
After the compressor starts to oper-
ate, the air pressure will temporarily
rise to 44 psi (300 kPa, 3.0kgf/cm

or bar) or higher. After about 30
seconds when all of the sealant is
inside the tire, th e air pressure will
lower, representing the air pressure in the tire.
10While filling the tire with air,
attach the speed limit label
on the position shown in the
illustration.
11Turn the air compressor power switch off when the air
pressure reaches the green
zone of the air gauge.

acceleration and sharp turns,
drive carefully at under 50
mph (80 km/h) to the nearest
Toyota dealer that is less
than 124 miles (200 km)
away for tire repair or
replacement.
■After a tire is repaired with the
emergency tire puncture repair
kit
●The tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter should be
replaced.
●Even if the tire inflation pressure is
at the recommended level, the tire
pressure warning light may come
on/flash.
WARNING
■Do not drive the vehicle with
a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire.
Driving even a short distance with
a flat tire can damage the tire and
the wheel beyond repair. Driving
with a flat tire may cause a cir-
cumferential groove on the side
wall. In such a case, the tire may
explode when using a repair kit.
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and
flat area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the
area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven.
After the vehicle has been
driven, the wheels and the area
around the brakes may be
extremely hot. Touching these
areas with hands , feet or other
body parts may result in burns.
●Connect the valve and hose
securely with the tire installed
on the vehicle.
●If the hose is not properly con-
nected to the valve, air leakage
may occur or sealant may be
sprayed out.
●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
completed, the sealant may
splatter when the hose is dis-
connected or some air is let out
of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure
to repair the tire. If the proce-
dure is not followed, the sealant
may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it
is being repaired, as there is a
chance of it bursting while the
repair operation is being per-
formed. If you notice any cracks
or deformation of the tire, turn
off the compressor switch and
stop the repair operation imme-
diately.
●The kit may overheat if operated
for a long period of time. Do not
operate the compressor contin-
uously for more than 10 min-
utes.
●Parts of the kit become hot
during operation. Be careful
handling the kit during and after
operation. Do not touch the
metal part around the connect-
ing area between the bottle and
compressor. It will be extremely
hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed
warning 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 prevent the SRS
airbag from operating properly.

WARNING
■Driving to spread the liquid
sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a
low speed. Be especially careful
when turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle d oes not drive
straight or you feel a pull
through the steering wheel, stop
the vehicle and check the tire.
The tire may have separated
from the wheel.
NOTICE
■When performing an emer-
gency repair
●Perform the emergency repair
without removing the nail or
screw that has punctured the
tread of the tire. If the object
that has punctur ed the tire is
removed, repair by the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
may not be possible.
●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 dus t etc., a mal-
function may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with
the bottle vertical. The kit can-
not work properly if it is laid on
its side.
■Handling the emergency tire
puncture 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.
●Store the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit in the trunk. The
kit may be thrown around during
sudden braking and so forth,
damaging the kit.
Place the repair kit in a storage to
prevent it from being exposed to
dirt or water.
●Store the kit in its assigned
place out of reach of children.
●Do not disassemble or modify
the kit. Do not subject parts
such as the air pressure indica-
tor to impacts. This may cause a
malfunction.
■To avoid damage to the tire
pressure warning valves and
transmitters
When a tire is repa ired with liquid
sealants, the tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter may not
operate properly. If a liquid seal-
ant is used, contact your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. After
use of liquid sealant, make sure to
replace the tire p ressure warning
valve and transmitter when repair-
ing or replaci ng the tire. (P.316)
