When trouble arises NOTICE ■
When performing an emergency repair ●
Perform the emergency repair without removi ng the nail or screw that has punctured
the tread of the tire. If the object that has punctured the tire is removed, repair by the

The kit is not waterproof. Make sure that th e kit is not exposed to water, such as when
it is being used in the rain. ●
Do not put the kit directly onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the road. If the
