When trouble arises
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.533):
Proceed to step 27.
26 Turn the compressor switch is
(on) to inflate the tire until
the specified air pressure is
reached. Drive for about 5 km (3
miles) and then perform step
24 .
27 Store the compressor in the
trunk.
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.

2 Check that the air pressure indicator
shows the specified air pressure.
If the air pressure is under the desig-
nated pressure, turn the compressor
switch on (type A) or (on) (type B)
again and repeat the inflation procedure
until the specified air pressure is
reached.
■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 pres-
sure warning light may come on/flash.
WA R N I N G
■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, t he 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 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.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency repair
●A tire should only be repaired with
the emergency tire puncture repair kit if the damage is caused by a
sharp object such as nail or screw
passing through the tire tread. Do not remove the sharp object
from the tire. Removing the object
may widen the opening and disenable emergency repair with
the repair kit.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the repair kit is not
exposed to water, such as when it
is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly
onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the road. If the repair kit
vacuums up dust etc., a malfunc-
tion may occur.
●Do not turn the bottle upside down
when using it, as doing so may cause damage to the compressor.
■Precautions for the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source should
be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use. Do not connect the repair kit to any
other source.
●If fuel splatters on the repair kit, the
repair kit may deteriorate. Take
care not to allow fuel to contact it.
●Place the repair kit in a storage to
prevent it from being exposed to dirt or water.
●Store the repair kit in the tool tray under the deck mat out of reach of
children.
●Do not disassemble or modify the
repair kit. Do not subject parts such
as the air pressure indicator to impacts. This may cause a malfunc-
tion.

4988-2. 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
(Multidrive) or R (manual trans-
mission).
 Stop the engine.
 Turn on the emergency flashers.
NOTICE
■To avoid damage to the tire pres-
sure warning valves and trans-
mitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid
sealants, the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used,
contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer or other qualified ser- vice shop as soon as possible. After
use of liquid sealant, make sure to
replace the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter when repairing
or replacing the tire. ( P.441)
If you have a flat tire
(vehicles with a spare
tire)
Your vehicle is equipped with a
spare tire. The flat tire can be
replaced with the spare tire.
