8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
NOTICE
When performing an emergency repair
Perform the emergency repair without removing the nail or screw that has
punctured the tread of the tire. If the object that has punctured the tire is
removed, repair by the emergency tire puncture repair kit may not be possible.
The kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the kit is not exposed to water, such
as when it is being used in the rain.
Do not put the kit directly onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the
road. If the kit vacuums up dust etc., a malfunction may occur.
Use the kit with the top facing upward. The kit cannot work properly if it is
laid on its side.
Handling the emergency tire puncture repair kit
The compressor power source should be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use. Do
not connect the compressor to any other source.
If gasoline splatters on the kit, the kit may deteriorate. Take care not to allow
gasoline to contact it.
Store the kit in its assigned place out of reach of children.
Do not disassemble or modify the kit. Do not subject parts such as the air
pressure indicator to impacts. This may cause a malfunction.
To avoid damage to the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact any
authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional as soon as possible. Make sure to replace the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter when replacing the tire. (P. 426)
