628 8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
lDo 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.
lConnect the valve and hose securely with the tire installed
on the vehicle.
If the hose is not properly connected to the valve, air leakage may occur as sealant may be sprayed out.
lIf the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that the hose will move abruptly due to air pressure.
lAfter inflation of the tire has completed, the sealant may splatter when the hose is disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.
lFollow the operation procedure to repair the tire. If the procedure is not followed, the sealant
may spray out.
lKeep 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.
lThe repair kit may overheat if operated for a long period of time. Do not operate the compressor continuously for more
than 40 minutes. lParts of the repair kit become hot during operation. Be careful handling the repair kit during and after operation. Do not touch the metal part connecting the bottle and the compressor. It will be extremely hot.
lDo not attach the vehicle speed warning sticker to an area other
than the one indicated. If the
sticker is attached to an area where an SRS airbag is located,
such as the pad of the steering
wheel, it may prevent the SRS airbag from operating properly.
n Driving to spread the liquid sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents. Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or serious injury.
lDrive the vehicle carefully at a
low speed. Be especially careful when turning and cornering.
lIf the vehicle does not drive straight or you feel a pull
through the steering wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following:
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If tire inflation pressure is 19 psi( 130
kPa, 1.3 kgf / cm 2 or bar) or below, this may indicate severe tire damage.
