●The sealant has a lim ited lifespan. The
expiry date is marked on the bottle. The
sealant should be replaced before the
expiry date. Contact your Lexus dealer
for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire
puncture repair kit ca n be used only once
to temporarily repair a single tire. If the
sealant has been used and needs to be
purchased, contact your Lexus dealer.
The compressor is reusable.
●The sealant can be used when the outside
temperature is from -40°F (-40°C) to
140°F (60°C).
●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 kit, a loud opera-
tion noise is produced. This does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
●Do not use the emergency tire puncture
repair kit to check or to adjust the tire
pressure.
■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 con-
ducted using the emergency tire puncture

When trouble arises
step 22.
21 Turn the compressor switch on to
inflate the tire until the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure is
reached. Drive for about 3 miles (5
km) and then perform step 19 .
22 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.
23Store the bottle in the trunk while it
is connected to the compressor.
24 Taking precautions to avoid sud-
den braking, sudd en acceleration
and sharp turns, drive carefully at
under 50 mph (80 km/h) to your
Lexus dealer that is less than 62
miles (100 km) away for tire repair
or replacement.
■After a tire is repaired with the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
●The tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter should be replaced.
●Even if the tire inflat ion pressure is at the
recommended level, the tire pressure
warning light may come on/flash.
■If the tire is inflated to more than the
recommended level
1 Disconnect the hose from the valve.
2 Install the air release cap to the end of
the hose and push th e protrusion on the air release cap into the valve to let some
air out.
3 Disconnect the hose from the valve,
remove the air release cap from the
hose and then reconnect the hose.
4 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.347)
If the air pressure is lower than the rec-
ommended level, turn the compressor
switch on again and repeat the inflation
procedure until the recommended
pressure is reached.
WARNING
■When fixing the flat tire
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●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
sealant may be sprayed out.

3287-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
• 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 procedure is not
followed, the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is
being repaired, as th ere is a chance of
it bursting while the repair operation 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 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 con-
necting area between the bottle and
compressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warn-
ing 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 operating properly.
■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 sepa- rated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130 kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2
or bar) or below, this may indicate
severe tire damage.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency
repair
●Perform the emergency repair with-
out removing 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 emergency tire
puncture repair kit may not be possi-
ble.
●The kit is not waterproof. Make sure
that the 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 kit vacuums up dust etc., a
malfunction may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with the bot-
tle vertical. The kit cannot work prop-
erly if it is laid on its side.
■Handling the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit
●The compressor power source should
be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use.
Do not connect the compressor to any
other source.
●If gasoline splatters on the kit, the kit
may deteriorate. Take care not to allow
gasoline to contact it.

When trouble arises
1Stop the engine. Set the parking
brake and shift the shift lever to P.
2 Remove the mud, snow or sand
from around the rear wheels.
3 Place wood, stones or some other
material under the rear wheels to
help provide traction.
4 Restart the engine.
5 Shift the shift lever to D or R and
release the parking brake. Then,
while exercising caution, depress
the accelerator pedal.
■When it is difficult to free the vehicle
Press the switch to turn off TRAC.
WARNING
●Keep hands and clothing (especially a
tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from the
fans and belts. Failure to do so may
cause the hands or clothing to be
caught, resulting in serious injury.
●While the engine and radiator are hot,
do not loosen or remove the coolant
reservoircap.
High temperature steam or coolant
couldspray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine coolant
Add coolant slowly after the engine has
cooled down sufficiently. Adding cool
coolant to a hot engine too quickly can
cause damage to the engine.
■To prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with
foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.
If the vehicle becomes stuck
Carry out the following proce-
dures if the tires spin or the vehicle
becomes stuck in mud, dirt or snow:
Recovering procedure

3407-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehi-
cle
If you choose to push the vehicle back
and forth to free it, make sure the sur-
rounding area is clear to avoid striking
other vehicles, objects or people. The
vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge
back suddenly as it becomes free. Use
extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shif t the shift lever with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid accel-
eration of the vehicle that may cause an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the transmission
and other components
●Avoid spinning the rear wheels and
depressing the accelerator pedal
more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after
these procedures are performed, the
vehicle may require towing to be freed.
