Turn the compressor switch on
and wait for several seconds, then
turn it off. Check the tire inflation
pressure.
If the tire inflation pressure is
below 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2 or
bar, 19 psi): The puncture can-
not be repaired. Contact any
authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped profes-
sional.
If the tire inflation pressure is
between 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2
or bar, 19 psi) and a point
below the recommended level:
The tire can be repaired. Pro-
ceed to step .
If the tire inflation pressure is at
the recommended level: Pro-
ceed to step .
Turn the compressor switch on to inflate the tire until the recommended
tire inflation pressure is reached. Drive for about 5 km (3 miles) and
then perform step .
Attach the air release cap to the
end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not attached,
the sealant may leak and the vehicle
may get dirty.

■If the tire is inflated to more than the recommended level
Disconnect the hose from the valve.
Disconnect the hose from the valve, remove the air release cap from the hose and
then reconnect the hose.
Turn the compressor switch on and wait for several seconds, then turn it off. Check
that the air pressure indicator shows the recommended level. ( P. 630)
If the air pressure is lower than the recommended level, turn the compressor
switch on again and repeat the inflation procedure until the recommended pres-
sure 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 pressure
warning light may come on/flash.
■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occasionally.
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 performed properly.
Install the air release cap to the end of the
hose and push the protrusion on the air
release cap into the valve to let some air
out.

CAUTION
■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 properly connected to the valve, air leakage may occur or seal-
ant 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 completed, the sealant may splatter when the hose is
disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to repair th e tire. If the procedure is not followed,
the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance of it burst-
ing while the repair operation is being performed. If you notice any cracks or
deformation of the tire, turn off the comp ressor switch and stop the repair opera-
tion immediately.
●The kit may overheat if operated for a long period of time. Do not operate the
compressor continuously for more than 35 minutes.
●Parts of the kit become hot during operation. Be careful handling the kit during
and after operation. Do not touch the metal part around the connecting area
between the bottle and compressor. 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 air bag from operat-
ing properly.

CAUTION
■Driving to spread the liquid sealant evenly
●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 steering wheel,
stop the vehicle and check the following:
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If tire inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2 o r b a r , 1 9
psi) or below, this may indicate severe tire damage.
