●
Stop the vehicle in a safe place on a hard, flat surface.
●
Set the parking brake.
●
Shift the shift position to P.
●
Stop the hybrid system.
●
Turn on the emergency flashers.
●
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.
