13 To inject the sealant and
inflate the tire, turn the com-
pressor switch on.
14 Inflate the tire until the rec-
ommended pressure is
reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will spike to
between 44 psi (300 kPa, 3.0
kgf/cm
2 or bar) and 58 psi
(400 kPa, 4.0 kgf/cm
2 or bar), then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire inflation
pressure about 1 to 5 min-
utes after the switch is turned
on.
• Turn the compressor switch off
and then check the tire inflation
pressure. Being careful not to
over inflate, check and repeat the
inflation procedure until the speci-
fied tire inflation pressure is
reached.
• The tire can be in flated for about
5 to 20 minutes (depending on
the outside temperature). If the
tire inflation press ure is still lower
than the specified point after infla-
tion for 25 minutes, the tire is too
damaged to be repaired. Turn the
compressor switch off and con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the spec ified air pres-
sure, let out some air to adjust the
tire inflation pressure. ( P.535)
15With the compressor switch
off, pull out the power plug
from the power outlet socket
and then disconnect the hose
from the valve on the tire.
Some sealant may leak when the
hose is removed.
16Install the valve cap onto the valve of the emergency
repaired tire.
17Attach the air release cap to the end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not
attached, the sealant may leak and

for tire repair or replacement.
For repair and replacement of a tire
or disposal of the tire puncture
repair kit, contact your Toyota
dealer.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell the Toy-
ota dealer that the sealant is
injected.
■If the tire is i nflated to more
than the specified air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the
valve.
2 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. 3
Disconnect the hose from the
valve, remove the air release cap
from the hose and then recon-
nect the hose.
4 Turn the compressor switch on
and wait for seve ral seconds,
then turn it off. Check that the air
pressure indicator shows the
specified air pressure is reached.
(  P.555)
If the air pressure is under the
designated pressure, turn the
compressor switch on again and
repeat the inflation procedure
until the specified air pressure is
reached.
■After a tire is re paired 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.
WARNING
■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 immedi-
ately 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.
