If Trouble Arises
Flat Tyre
WARNING
Do not adhere the speed restriction
sticker to the padded area on the
steering wheel:
Adhering the speed restriction sticker
to the padded area on the steering
wheel is dangerous because the air
bag may not operate (deploy) normally
resulting in serious injury. In addition,
do not adhere the sticker to areas where
warning lights or the speedometer
cannot be viewed.
14. When the tyre infl ates to the specifi ed
tyre infl ation pressure, turn the air
compressor switch OFF, turn the sleeve
of the injection hose to the left, and pull
it out of the tyre valve. Turn the sleeve
of the injection hose to the left, and pull
it out of the tyre valve.
15. Remove the compressor hose from the
injection valve of the bottle. After that,
install the injection hose to the injection
valve of the bottle to prevent leakage of
any remaining sealant.
CAUTION
The remaining sealant in the hose may
spray out when the hose is removed.
Remove the hose carefully because you
may not be able to remove the sealant
contacting clothing or other objects.
16. Install the tyre valve cap.
17. Put the puncture tyre repair kit into the
boot/luggage compartment.
18. Start driving immediately to spread the
sealant in the tyre.
CAUTION
Carefully drive the vehicle at a speed of
80 km/h (50 mph) or less. If the vehicle
is driven at a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph)
or more, the vehicle may vibrate.
NOTE
(With Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System)
If the tyre is not properly infl ated, the
tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light will illuminate (page 4-40 ).
19. After driving the vehicle for about 10
minutes or 5 km (3 miles), connect
the air compressor to the tyre using
Step 9 of the procedure, and check the
tyre infl ation pressure using the tyre
pressure gauge on the air compressor. If
the tyre infl ation pressure is lower than
the specifi ed tyre infl ation pressure,
turn the air compressor ON and wait
until it reaches the specifi ed tyre
infl ation pressure.

The vehicle begins to vibrate
excessively.
The vehicle pulls in one direction.
If you have a fl at tyre, drive slowly to a
level spot that is well off the road and out

the jack and seriously injure someone.
No person should place any portion
of their body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.
Never allow anyone inside a vehicle
supported by a jack:
Allowing someone to remain in
a vehicle supported by a jack is
dangerous. The occupant could cause
the vehicle to fall resulting in serious
injury.
NOTE
Make sure the jack is well lubricated
before using it.
1. Park on a level surface off the right-of-
way and fi rmly set the parking brake.
2. Put a vehicle with an automatic
transaxle in Park (P), a manual
transaxle in Reverse (R) or 1, and turn
off the engine.
3. Turn on the hazard warning fl asher.
4. Have everyone get out of the vehicle
and away from the vehicle and traffi c.
5. Remove the jack, tool, and spare tyre

6. Block the wheel diagonally opposite
the fl at tyre. When blocking a wheel,
place a tyre block both in front and
behind the tyre.
NOTE
When blocking a tyre, use rocks or
wood blocks of suffi cient size if possible
to hold the tyre in place.

the i-ELOOP indicator light fl ashing,
it may feel heavier than normal,
however, this does not indicate a
malfunction. The steering operation
will return to normal when the
i-ELOOP indicator light turns off.
Do not remove the jumper leads
while the i-ELOOP indicator light is
fl ashing.
