5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
CAUTION
●After inflation of the tire has comp
leted, the sealant may splatter when
the hose is disconnected or so me air is let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to repair the tire. If the procedures not
followed, the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance
of it bursting while the repair ope ration is being performed. If you
notice any cracks or deformation of the tire, turn off the compressor
switch and stop the repair operation immediately.
●The repair kit may overheat if operated for a long period of time. Do not
operate the repair kit continuously for more than 35 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become hot during operation. Be careful when
handling the repair kit during and after operation. Do not touch the
metal part around the connecting area between the bottle and com-
pressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warning sticker to an area other than
the one indicated. If the sticker is attached to an area where an SRS
airbag is located, such as the pad of the steering wheel, it may prevent
the SRS airbag from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a lo w speed. Be especially careful when
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight or you feel a pull through the
steering wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following.
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130
kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or less, the tire may be severely dam-
aged.
