8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
Stop the vehicle in a safe place
on a hard, flat surface.
Set the parking brake.
Shift the shift lever to P
(Multidrive) or N (manual trans-
mission).
Stop the engine.
Turn on the emergency flashers.
Check the degree of the tire
damage.
Do not remove the nail or screw
from the tire. Removing the object
may widen the opening and make
emergency repair with the repair kit
impossible.
■A flat tire that cannot be repaired
with the emergency tire puncture repair kit
In the following cases, the tire cannot be
repaired with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●When the tire is damaged due to driv-ing without sufficient air pressure
●When there are any cracks or damage at any location on the tire, such as on
the side wall, except the tread
●When the tire is visibly separated from
the wheel
●When the cut or damage to the tread
is 4 mm (0.16 in.) long or more
●When the wheel is damaged
●When two or more tires have been punctured
●When more than 2 sharp objects such as nails or screws have passed
through the tread on a single tire
●When the sealant has expired

■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 immediately 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 prop-
erly connected to the valve, air
leakage may occur as 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 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 procedures 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 opera-
tion is being performed. If you
notice any cracks or deformation of
the tire, turn off (type A) or (off)
(type B) the compressor switch and
stop the repair operation immedi- ately.
●The repair kit may overheat if oper-ated for a long period of time. Do
not operate the repair kit continu-
ously for more than 40 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become hot during operation. Be careful when
handling the repair kit during and
after operation. Do not touch the metal part around the connecting
area between the bottle and com-
pressor. 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 oper-
ating properly.
●To avoid risk of burst or severe
leakage, do not drop or damage the bottle. Visually inspect the bottle
before use. Do not use a bottle with
shock, crack, scratch, leakage or any other damage. In such case,
immediately replace.
■Driving to spread the liquid seal-
ant 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 does not drive straight
or you feel a pull through the steer-
ing wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following.
• Tire condition. The tire may have
separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire
inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3
kgf/cm2 or bar, 19 psi) or less, the tire may be severely damaged.

jack point.
5 Assemble the jack handle
extension.
6 Raise the vehicle until the tire is
slightly raised off the ground.
7 Remove all the wheel nuts and
the tire.
When resting the tire on the ground,
place the tire so that the wheel design faces up to avoid scratching the wheel
surface.

■Replacing a flat tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven. After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area
around the brakes will be extremely
hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or other body parts
while changing a tire, etc. may
result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions
could cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the tire to fall off, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
• Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the
wheel nuts to be excessively tight- ened, leading to bolt or disc wheel
damage. In addition, the oil or
grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off,
causing an accident and resulting in
death or serious injury. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or
wheel nuts.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with
a torque wrench to 103 N•m (10.5
kgf•m, 76 ft•lbf) as soon as possible after changing wheels.

■When using the full-size spare
tire
●Replace the full-size spare tire with a standard tire as soon as possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shift-
ing operations that cause sudden
engine braking.
■When using the compact spare
tire
●Remember that the compact spare tire provided is specifically
designed for use with your vehicle.
Do not use your compact spare tire on another vehicle.
●Do not use more than one compact spare tires simultaneously.
●Replace the compact spare tire with a standard tire as soon as possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shift-
ing operations that cause sudden
engine braking.
■When the compact spare tire is

km/h (50 mph) when a compact spare tire is installed on the vehicle.
The compact spare tire is not designed for driving at high speeds.
Failure to observe this precaution
may lead to an accident causing death or serious injury.
■After using the tools and jack
Before driving, make sure all the tools and jack are securely in place in their
storage location to reduce the possi-
bility of personal injury during a colli- sion or sudden braking.
