5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
CAUTION
When fixing the flat tire
■
●
Stop your vehicle in a safe and flat area.
●
Do not touch the wheels or the area around the brakes immediately
after the vehicle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven, the wheels and the area around the
brakes may be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or
other body parts may result in burns.
●
Connect the valve and hose securely with the tire installed on the vehi-
cle. If the hose is not properly connected to the valve, air leakage may
occur as sealant may be sprayed out.
●
If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk
that the hose will move abruptly due to air pressure.
●
After inflation of the tire has completed, the sealant may splatter when
the hose is disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.
●
Follow the operation procedure to repair the tire. If the procedures not
followed, the sealant may spray out.
●
Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance
of it bursting while the repair operation is being performed. If you
notice any cracks or deformation of the tire, turn off the compressor
switch and stop the repair operation immediately.
