Check the degree of the tire damage.
A tire should only be repaired with the
emergency tire puncture repair kit if
the damage is caused by a nail or screw
passing through the tire tread.• Do not remove the nail or screw
from the tire. Removing the object
may widen the opening and disen-
able emergency 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.
Take out the repair kit from the tool box.
Remove the valve cap from the valve
of the punctured tire.
Remove the protective film from the
bottle and extend the hose. Remove
the air release cap from the hose.
Attach the sticker enclosed with the bot-
tle on the specified locations. (See step
9. )
You will use the air release cap again.
Therefore keep it in a safe place.

Start the engine.
To inject the sealant and inflate the
tire, turn the compressor switch on.
Inflate the tire until the specified air
pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected and the
pressure will surge and then gradu-
ally decrease.
The air pressure gauge will display
the actual tire inflation pressure
about 1 minute (5 minutes at low
temperature) after the switch is
turned on.
Inflate the tire until the specified air
pressure.
• Turn the compressor switch off and
then check the tire inflation pressure.
Being careful not to over inflate,
check and repeat the inflation pro-
cedure until the specified tire infla-
tion pressure is reached.
• 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 damaged to be repaired. Turn
the compressor switch off and contact any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the specified air pressure, let out some air
to adjust the tire inflation pressure. ( →P. 5 4 4 , 5 7 2 )12
