NOTICE

Do not mount the compact spare on the front. If
mounted on the front, the compact spare, smaller in
size than the full-size tire, may damage the
differential.

If either front tire goes flat, remove the rear tire on
the same side, and mount the compact spare on the
rear and the rear tire on the front.

The shape of the tool case varies by model.

How to Set Up the Jack

1

How to Set Up the Jack

Do not use the jack with people or luggage in the
vehicle.

Use the jack provided in your vehicle.
Other jacks may not support the weight (“load”) or
may not fit the jacking point.

The following instructions must be followed to use
the jack safely:

Do not use while the engine is running.

Use only where the ground is firm and level.

Use only at the jacking points.

Do not get in the vehicle while using the jack.

Do not put anything on top of or underneath the
jack.

WARNING

The vehicle can easily roll off the jack,
seriously injuring anyone underneath.

Follow the directions for changing a tire
exactly, and no person should place any
portion of their body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.

If you replace a flat tire with the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), the
indicator will start blinking for a short time and then stay on. Tire Pressure
Monitor Problem
or Tire Pressures Low appears on the driver information
interface, but this is normal.

Calibrate the TPMS when you replace the tire with a specified regular tire.

2 TPMS Calibration P. 461

The system cannot monitor the pressure of the spare tire. Manually check the spare
tire pressure to be sure that it is correct.

Temporarily Repairing a Flat Tire

*

If the tire has a large cut or is otherwise severely damaged, you will need to have the
vehicle towed. If the tire only has a small puncture, from a nail for instance, you can
use the temporary tire repair kit so that you can drive to the nearest service station
for a more permanent repair.

If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually
to reduce speed. Then stop in a safe place.

1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level, and non-slippery surface and apply the parking

brake.

2. Move the shift lever to

3. Turn on the hazard warning lights and set the power mode to VEHICLE OFF

(LOCK).

The kit should not be used in the following situations.
Instead, contact a dealer or a roadside assistant to
have the vehicle towed.

The tire sealant has expired.

More than one tire is punctured.

The puncture or cut is larger than 3/16 inch (4.8
mm).

The tire side wall is damaged or the puncture is
outside the contact area.

Damage has been caused by driving with the tire
extremely under inflated.

The tire bead is no longer seated.

The rim is damaged.

Do not remove a nail or screw that punctured the
tire. If you remove it from the tire, you may not be
able to repair the puncture using the kit.

Injecting Sealant and Air

In cold temperatures, the sealant may not flow easily.
In this situation, warm it up for five minutes before
using.

The sealant can permanently stain clothing and other
materials. Be careful during handling and wipe away
any spills immediately.

3

WARNING

Tire sealant contains substances that are
harmful and can be fatal if swallowed.

If accidentally swallowed, do not induce
vomiting. Drink plenty of water and get
medical attention immediately.

For skin or eye contact, flush with cool
water and get medical attention if
necessary.

Injecting Sealant and Air

NOTICE

Do not operate the temporary tire repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The
compressor can overheat and become permanently
damaged.

Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tire is inflated with air. This is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure using the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.

WARNING

Running the engine with the vehicle in an
enclosed or even partly enclosed area can
cause a rapid build-up of toxic carbon
monoxide.

Breathing this colorless, odorless gas can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Only run the engine to power the air
compressor with the vehicle outdoors.

The compressor starts injecting sealant
and air into the tire.

u

When the sealant injection is complete,
continue to add air.

8. After the air pressure reaches to specified

pressure, turn off the kit.

u

To check the pressure, occasionally turn
off the compressor and read the gauge.

u

Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label for
the specified pressure.

9. Unplug the power plug from the accessory

power socket.

10. Unscrew the sealant/air hose from the tire

valve stem. Reinstall the valve cap.

11. Press the pressure relief button until the

gauge returns to 0 psi (0 kPa).

12. Apply the repair notification label to the

flat surface of the wheel.

The wheel surface must be clean to
ensure the label adheres properly.

Injecting Sealant and Air

If the required air pressure is not reached within 10
minutes, the tire may be too severely damaged for
the kit to provide the necessary seal, and your vehicle
will need to be towed.

proper disposal of an empty bottle.

• Front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa) or more:

Continue driving for another 10 minutes or until you reach the nearest service
station, whichever is sooner. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). If you have not
reached a service station, stop and check the tire pressure.

u

If the air pressure does not go down after the 10 minute driving, you do not
need to check the pressure any more.

• Greater than 25 psi (175 kPa), but less than front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32

psi (220 kPa):

Turn the air compressor on to inflate the tire until the tire pressure reaches front:
33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa).
