If you have a flat tire
Your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tire, but instead is
equipped with an emergency
tire puncture repair kit.
A puncture caused by a nail or
screw passing through the tire
tread can be repaired tempo-
rarily using the emergency tire
puncture repair kit. (The kit
contains a bottle of sealant.
The sealant can be used only
once to temporarily repair one
tire without removing the nail
or screw from the tire.)
Depending on the damage, this
kit cannot be used to repair the
tire. ( P.324)
After temporarily repairing the
tire with the kit, have the tire
repaired or replaced by any
authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer. Repairs
conducted using the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
are only a temporary measure.
Have the tire repaired and
replaced as soon as possible.
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, which could
result in an accident.

■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occasion- ally.The expiry date is shown on the bottle.
Do not use sealant whose expiry date has already passed. Otherwise, repairs conducted using the emergency tire
puncture repair kit may not be per- formed properly.
■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The emergency tire puncture repair kit is for filling the car tire with air.
●The sealant has a limited life span. The expiry date is marked on the bot-tle. The sealant should be replaced
before the expiry date. Contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used
only once to temporarily repair a sin- gle tire. If the sealant has been used and needs to be replaced, purchase a
new bottle at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The compres-
sor is reusable.
●The sealant can be used when the
outside temperature is from -30°C (- 22°F) to 60°C (140°F).
●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. Immediately wipe away the sealant with a wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This does not indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use to check or to adjust the tire pressure.
WARNING
■Caution while driving
●Store the repair kit in the luggage compartment.
Injuries may result in the event of an accident or sudden braking.
●The repair kit is exclusively only for your vehicle.Do not use repair kit on other vehi-
cles, which could lead to an acci- dent causing death or serious injury.

13Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected and
the pressure will spike to 300
kPa (3.0 kgf/cm2 or bar, 44 psi)
or 400 kPa (4.0 kgf/cm2 or bar,
58 psi), then gradually
decrease.
The air pressure gauge will dis-
play the actual tire inflation pres-
sure about 1 to 5 minutes after
the switch is turned on.
 Turn the compressor switch off
and then check the tire inflation
pressure. Being careful not to
over inflate, check and repeat
the inflation procedure until the
specified tire inflation pressure is
reached.
 The tire can be inflated for about
5 to 20 minutes (depending on
the outside temperature). If the
tire inflation pressure is still lower
than the specified point after
inflation for 25 minutes, the tire is
too damaged to be repaired.
Turn the compressor switch off
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
 If the tire inflation pressure
exceeds the specified air pres-
sure, let out some air to adjust
the tire inflation pressure.

WARNING
●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 the compressor
switch and stop the repair operation immediately.
●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.
