6068-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If you have a flat tire (vehicles with an emergency
tire puncture repair kit)
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 temporarily with the emer gency tire puncture repair kit.
WARNING
■If you have a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat tire.
Driving even a short distance with a flat ti re can damage the tire and the wheel beyond
repair. Driving with a flat tire may cause a circumferential groove on the side wall. In
such a case, the tire may explode when using the emergency tire puncture repair kit,
resulting in death or serious injury.

Tire ply composition and materials
Plies are layers of rubber-c oated parallel cords. Cords are the strands which form the
plies in a tire.
Radial tires or bias-ply tires
A radial tire has “RADIAL” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “RADIAL” is a bias-ply
tire.
TUBELESS or TUBE TYPE
A tubeless tire does not have a tube and air is directly put into the tire. A tube type tire
has a tube inside the tire and the tube maintains the air pressure.
Load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure (→ P. 668)
Maximum cold tire inflation pressure (→ P. 668)
This means the pressure to which a tire may be inflated.
Uniform tire quality grading
For details, see “Uniform Tire Quality Grading” that follows.
Summer tires or all season tires (→ P. 521)
An all season tire has “M+S” on the side wall. A tire not marked “M+S” is a summer
tire.
“TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
