5748-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Stop the vehicle in a safe
place on a hard, flat surface.
 Set the parking brake.
 Shift the shift lever to P.
 Stop the hybrid system.
 Turn on the emergency flash-
ers. ( P.546)
 For vehicles with power back
door: Turn off the power back
door system. ( P.195)
 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. Removing
the object may widen the
opening and prevent emer-
gency repair with the repair
kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the vehicle until the
area of the puncture, if
known, is positioned at the
top of the tire.
If you have a flat tire
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 seal-
ant can be used only once
to temporarily repair one
tire without removing the
nail or screw from the tire.)
Depending on the damage
condition of the flat tire, it
may not be able to repaired
with the emergency tire
puncture repair kit.
( P.575)
After temporarily repairing
the tire with the kit, have the
tire repaired or replaced by
your Toyota dealer.
WARNING
■If you have a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire.
Driving even a short distance with
a flat tire can damage the tire and
the wheel beyond repair, which
could result in an accident.
Driving with a flat tire may cause a
circumferential groove on the side
wall.
In such a case, the tire may
explode when using a repair kit.
Before repairing the vehi-

When trouble arises
■A flat tire that cannot be
repaired with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit
In the following cases, the tire can-
not be repaired with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit. Contact your
Toyota dealer.
●When the tire is damaged due to
driving without sufficient air pres-
sure
●When the tire lost air pressure due
to a crack or damage in the tire
sidewall
●When the tire is visibly separated
from the wheel
●When the cut or damage to the
tread is 0.16 in. (4 mm) long or
more
●When the wheel is damaged
●When two or more tires have been
punctured
●When there is more than one hole
or cut in the damaged tire
●When the sealant has expired

■Note for checking the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occa-
sionally. 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 repair kit may not be per-
formed properly.
■Emergency tire puncture repair
kit
●The emergency tire puncture
repair kit is for filling the car tire
with air.
●The sealant has a limited life
span. The expiry date is marked
on the bottle. The sealant should
be replaced before the expiry
date. Contact your Toyota dealer.
●The sealant stored in the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit can
be used only once to temporarily
repair a single tire. If the sealant in
the bottle and other parts of the kit
have been used and need to be
replaced, contact your Toyota
dealer.
●The compressor can be used
repeatedly.
●The sealant can be used when the
outside temperature is from -40°C
(-40°F) to 60°C (140°F).
●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. Immedi-
ately wipe away the sealant with a
wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit,

WARNING
■Do not drive the vehicle with
a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire. Driving even a short distance
with a flat tire can damage the tire
and the wheel beyond repair.
Driving with a flat tire may cause a
circumferential groove on the side
wall. In such a case, the tire may
explode when using a repair kit.
■Caution while driving
●Store the repair kit in the lug-
gage compartment.
Injuries may result in the event
of an accident or sudden brak-
ing.
●The repair kit is exclusively only
for your vehicle.
Do not use repair kit on other
vehicles, which could lead to an
accident causing death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not use repair kit for tires
that are different size than the
original ones, or for any other
purpose. If the tires have not
been completely repaired, it
could lead to an accident caus-
ing death or serious injury.
■Precautions for use of the
sealant
●Ingesting the sealant is hazard-
ous to your health. If you ingest
sealant, consume as much
water as possible, and then
immediately consult a doctor.
●If sealant gets in eyes or
adheres to skin, immediately
wash it off with water. If discom-
fort persists, consult a doctor.

4Connect the hose to the bot-
tle.
Make sure to insert the hose until
its claw is securely engaged to the
bottle.
5Remove the valve cap from
the valve of the punctured
tire.
6 Extend the hose. Remove
the air release cap from the
hose.
You will use the air release cap
again.
Therefore keep it in a safe place.
7Connect the hose to the
valve.
Screw the end of the hose clock-
wise as far as possible.

8Make sure that the compres-
sor switch is off.
9 Connect the power plug to
the power outlet socket.
( P.456)
10 Attach the sticker provided
with the tire puncture repair
kit to a position easily seen
from the driver’s seat.
11 Check the specified tire infla-
tion pressure.
Tire inflation pressure is specified
on the label on the driver’s side pil- lar as shown. (
P.532)
12Start the hybrid system.
( P.251)
13To inject the sealant and inflate the tire, turn the com-
pressor switch on.

5808-2. Steps to take in an emergency
14Inflate the tire until the speci-
fied air 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
be displayed the actual tire
inflation pressure about 1 to
5 minutes after the switch is
turned on.
Turn the compressor switch off and
then check the tire inflation pres-
sure. Being careful not to over
inflate, check and repeat the infla-
tion procedure until the specified
tire inflation pressure is reached.
The tire can be inflated for about 5
to 20 minutes (depending on the
outside temperature). If the tire
inflation pressure is still lower than the specified point after inflation for
25 minutes, the tire is too damaged
to be repaired. Turn the compres-
sor switch off and contact your
Toyota dealer.
If the tire inflation pressure exceeds
the specified air pressure, let out
some air to adjust the tire inflation
pressure. (
P.582, 605)
15With the compressor switch
off, disconnect the hose from
the valve on the tire and then
pull out the power plug from
the power outlet socket.
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
the vehicle may get dirty.
18Temporarily store the bottle in the luggage compartment
while it is connected to the
compressor.
19To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, imme-
diately drive safely for about
