● Shift the shift lever to P (Multidrive) or N (manual transmission).
● Stop the engine.

● Check the degree of the tire damage.
A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a nail or screw pass-
ing through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail or
screw from the tire. Remov-
ing the object may widen the
opening and make emer-
gency repair with the repair
kit impossible.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the vehicle until the area of the
puncture, if known, is positioned at the top of the tire.

Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will surge
and then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire infla-
tion pressure about 1 minute
(5 minutes at low tempera-
ture) after the switch is
turned on.
Inflate the tire until the speci-
fied air pressure.
• If the tire inflation pressure is
still lower than the specified
point after inflation for 35 min-
utes with the switch on, the
tire is too damaged to be
repaired. Turn the compres-
sor switch off and contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the specified air pressure, let out
some air to adjust the tire inflation pressure. ( P. 724, 772)
