2 Take out the emergency tire
puncture repair kit.
Type A
1 Wagon: Take out the repair kit
from the bag.
2 Attach the sticker provided with
the tire puncture repair kit to a
position easily seen from the
driver's seat.
3 Remove the valve cap from the
valve of the punctured tire.
4 Remove the cap from the noz-
zle.
5 Connect the nozzle to the valve.

The bottle should hang vertically with-
out contacting the ground. If the bottle does not hang vertically, move the vehi-
cle so that the tire valve is located prop-
erly.
6 Remove the cap from the bottle.
7 Pull the hose out from the com-
pressor.
8 Connect the bottle to the com-
pressor.
Screw the end of the nozzle clockwise
as far as possible.
9 Make sure that the compressor
switch is off.
10 Remove the power plug from
the compressor.

11 Connect the power plug to the
power outlet socket. ( P.451)
12 Check the specified tire inflation
pressure.
Tire inflation pressure is specified on the label as shown. ( P.573)
13Start the vehicle's engine.
14 To inject the sealant and inflate
the tire, turn the compressor
switch on.
15 Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected and
the pressure will surge and then
gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will dis-
play the actual tire inflation pres-
sure about 1 minute (5 minutes
at low temperature) after the
switch is turned on.
Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure.
If the tire inflation pressure is still
lower than the specified point
after inflation for 35 minutes with
the switch on, the tire is too dam-
aged to be repaired. Turn the
compressor switch off and con-
tact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

5308-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If the tire inflation pressure
exceeds the specified air pres-
sure, let out some air to adjust
the tire inflation pressure.
( P.536, 573)
16 Turn the compressor off.
17 Disconnect the nozzle from the
valve on the tire and then pull
out the power plug from the
power outlet socket.
Some sealant may leak when the hose
is removed.
18 Press the button to release
pressure from the bottle.
19 Attach the cap to the nozzle.
20 Install the valve cap onto the
valve of the repaired tire.
21 Disconnect the hose from the
bottle and attach the cap to the
bottle.
Wagon: Place the bottle in the original
bag.
22 Temporarily store the bottle and
compressor in the luggage com-
partment.
23 To spread the liquid sealant
evenly within the tire, immedi-
ately drive safely for about 5 km
(3 miles) below 80 km/h (50
mph).
24 After driving for about 5 km
(3miles), stop your vehicle in a
safe place on a hard, flat sur-

face and connect the compres-
sor.
25 Check the tire inflation pressure.
If the tire inflat ion pressure is
under 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2 or
bar, 19 psi): The puncture can-
not be repaired. Contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
If the tire inflat ion pressure is
130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2 or bar, 19
psi) or higher, but less than the
specified air pressure: Proceed
to step 26.
If the tire inflatio n pressure is the
specified air pressure ( P.573):
Proceed to step 27.
26 Turn the compressor switch on
to inflate the tire until the speci-
fied air pressure is reached.
Drive for about 5 km (3 miles)
and then perform step 24.
27 Hatchback: Store the compres-
sor in the luggage compartment.
Wagon: Place the compressor in
the original bag and store the
repair kit in the luggage com-
partment.
28 Taking precautions to avoid sud-
den braking, sudden accelera-
tion and sharp turns, drive
carefully at under 80 km/h (50
mph) to the nearest any author-
ized Toyota reta iler or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any relia-
ble repairer for tire repair or
replacement.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota author- ized repairer, or any reliable repairer
that the sealant is injected.
