Auris Touring Sports_EE (OM12G98E)
Before repairing the tire
Stop the vehicle in a safe place on a hard, flat surface.
Set the parking brake.
Shift the shift lever to P (Multidrive) or N (manual transmission).
Stop the engine.
Turn on the emergency flashers. (P. 480)
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 using the emergency tire puncture repair kit.
(The kit contains a bottle of sealant. The sealant can be used only once
to temporarily repair one tire without removing the nail or screw from
the tire.) Depending on the damage, this kit cannot be used to repair the
tire. (P. 544)
After temporarily repairing the tire with the kit, have the tire repaired or
replaced by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional. Repairs conducted using the
emergency tire puncture repair kit are only a temporary measure. Have
the tire repaired and replaced as soon as possible.
