On cars with Honda IMS
Your vehicle is not equipped with a
spare tyre. Instead, your vehicle has
the tyre sealant kit (Honda IMS).
This kit is available only for easy
repair of a flat tyre.
When using the tyre sealant kit,
always follow the instructions and
the procedure in this owner's manual.
You should check the usable period
of the tyre sealant according to the
time and distance recommendations
in the maintenance schedule. (For
EU countries, see the Service Book.)
To remind you of the instructions for
using the tyre sealant kit, the
handling manual is included in the
kit. Symbols on the
handling manual are to remind you
to read this owner's manual for using
the tyre sealant kit.
Read the handling manual well and
use it correctly.
Small punctures in the tyre tread,
caused by a nail or a screw, can be
sealed with the Tyre Sealant Kit.
