8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
IS250_EE(OM53B11E)
Check the degree of the tire damage.
A tire should only be repaired with
the emergency tire puncture repair
kit if the damage is caused by a nail
or screw passing through the tire
tread.
• Do not remove the nail or screw
from the tire. Removing the
object may widen the opening
and disenable emergency repair
with the kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the vehicle until the area of the punc-
ture, if known, is positioned at the top of the tire.
Take out the repair kit from the tool box.
Remove the valve cap from the
valve of the punctured tire.
Remove the protective film from
the bottle and extend the hose.
Remove the air release cap from
the hose.
Attach the sticker enclosed with the
bottle on the specified locations.
(See step 9.)
You will use the air release cap
again. Therefore keep it in a safe
place.
