Tire Repair
Kit*
If a tire has a small puncture, you can use the tire repair kit to temporarily repair it. The puncture must be smaller than 3/16-inch (4 mm) and not in the tire sidewall. Go to a dealer to have the full-size tire permanently repaired or replaced.
Before Repairing the Tire
- Park the vehicle on firm, level, and non-slippery surface.
- Change the gear to Park (P), and apply the parking brake.
- Turn on the hazard warning lights and turn the vehicle off.
Getting Ready to Repair the Tire
- Pull the handle on the cargo area floor lid and open the lid.
- Remove the cargo floor box.
- Remove the kit from the case.
Case
Tire repair kit
- Place the kit face up on flat ground near the punctured tire and away from traffic. Do not place the kit on its side.
- Follow the instructions in the kit to repair the tire.
NOTICE
Do not use an unapproved puncture-repairing agent on a flat tire, as it can damage the tire pressure sensor.
