set up a warning sign, such as a warning
triangle or flashing signal lamp, at an ade-
quate distance from the vehicle, and have

WARNING
 The tire sealant can cause health damage
if swallowed. If you accidentally swallow
it, drink as much water as possible and
immediately seek medical attention.
 If the tire sealant gets in your eyes or on
your skin, rinse it away with lots of water.
If you still sense an abnormality, seek
medical attention.
 Consult a doctor immediately if any aller-
gic reactions occur.
 Do not allow children to touch the tire
sealant.
CAUTION
 If the vehicle body is contaminated by the
tire sealant, wipe the tire sealant off immedi-
ately with a wet cloth.
 Immediately wash clothes contaminated with
tire sealant.
NOTE
 Do not pull out an object, such as a nail or
screw, that penetrates the punctured tire.
 Move the vehicle so that the tire valve is
positioned away from the point where the
tire touches the ground. If the valve is near
the point where the tire touches the ground,
the sealant may not enter the tire easily.
NOTE
 In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 32 °F {0 °C} or lower), thicken-
ing of the tire sealant can make the tire
sealant hard to squeeze out of the bottle.
Warm the bottle between your hands inside
the vehicle.
