NOTICE
■ Precautions for repairing a flat tire
● 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.
● Make sure to stand the kit with the bottle vertical. 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.
● Take care not to allow gasoline to contact the emergency tire puncture repair kit. If
gasoline splatters on the kit, it may deteriorate.
● Place the repair kit in a storage to prevent it from being exposed to dirt or water.
● 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 transmit-
ter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact any authorized Lexus
retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer or other qualified service
shop as soon as possible. After use of liquid sealant, make sure to replace the tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter when repairing or replacing the tire.
