COROLLA HV_U

22Turn the compressor switch
on to inflate the tire until the
specified air pressure is
reached. Drive for about 3
miles (5 km) and then per-
form step 20.
23Attach the air release cap to
the end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not
attached, the sealant may leak and
the vehicle may get dirty.
24Store the bottle in the trunk
while it is connected to the
compressor.
25Taking precautions to avoid
sudden braking, sudden
acceleration and sharp turns,
drive carefully at under 50
mph (80 km/h) to the nearest
Toyota dealer that is less
than 62 miles (100 km) away
for tire repair or replacement.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell the
Toyota dealer that the sealant is
injected.

If the tire is inflated to more
than the specified air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the
valve.

end of the hose and push the

out.
3 Disconnect the hose from the
valve, remove the air release cap

nect the hose.

the specified air pressure.
(P.501)
If the air pressure is under the des-
ignated pressure, turn the compres-
sor switch on again and repeat the
inflation procedure until the speci-
fied air pressure is reached.
