Handling the emergency tire puncture
■
repair kit/sealant
The emergency tire puncture repair kit is
●
designed to inflate vehicle tires.
●
Do not use to check or to adjust the tire
pressure.
The kit is exclusively designed for size
●
and type of tires originally installed on
your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a
different size than the original ones, or for
any other purposes.
●
The sealant stored in the emergency tire
puncture repair kit can be used only once
to temporarily repair a single tire.
If the sealant in the bottle and other parts of
the kit have been used and need to be
replaced, contact your Lexus dealer.
The sealant can be used when the outside
●
temperature is from -40°F (-40°C) to
140°F (60°C).
If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may
●
stain.
●
If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the
surface of the vehicle body, the stain may
not be removable if it is not cleaned at
once. Immediately wipe away the sealant
with a wet cloth.
The compressor can be used repeatedly.
●
●
During operation of the kit, a loud opera-
tion noise is produced. This does not indi-
cate a malfunction.

ducted using the emergency tire puncture
repair kit may not be performed properly.
