8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
8
When trouble arises
■ If the tire is inflated to more than the specified air pressure
Disconnect the hose from the valve.
Disconnect the hose from the valve, remove the air release cap from
the hose and then reconnect the hose.
Turn the compressor switch on and wait for several seconds, then turn
it off. Check that the air pressure indicator shows the specified air pres-
sure. (P. 400)
If the air pressure is under the designated pressure, turn the compres-
sor switch on again and repeat the inflation procedure until the speci-
fied air pressure is reached.
■ The valve of a tire that has been repaired
After a tire is repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit, the tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter should be replaced.
■ Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiration date occasionally.
The expiry date is shown on the bottle. Do not use sealant whose expiry
date has already passed. Otherwise, repairs conducted using the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit may not be performed properly.
Install the air release cap to the end of
the hose and push the protrusion on
the air release cap into the tire valve
to let some air out.
