Before performing emergency repair
Check the degree of the tire dam-
age.
• Do not remove the nail or screw
from the tire. Removing the object
may widen the opening and pre-
vent emergency repair with the
repair kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move
the vehicle until the area of the
puncture, if known, is positioned at
the top of the tire.
■
In the following cases, the tire cannot be repaired with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
●
When the tire is damaged due to driving without sufficient air pressure

When there are any cracks or damage at any location on the tire, such as on
the side wall, except the tread

When the cut or damage to the tread is 4 mm (0.16 in.) long or more
●
When the wheel is damaged

When more than 2 sharp objects such as nails or screws have passed
