Temporarily Repairing a Flat Tire How to Use the Tire Repair Kit All Canadian models with automatic transmission To reduce weight, your vehicle is equipped with a tire repair kit instead of a spare tire. This kit will allow you to temporarily repair a flat tire under the following conditions: ● If you have a flat tire while driving, park the vehicle on a level surface in a safe place, put the transmission in Park (P), set the parking brake, and turn the hazard lights on. Thoroughly examine the tire for a puncture or other damage. If a puncture is wider than 3/16ths of an inch (4 mm), or is located in the tire sidewall, do not attempt to repair the tire. Have your vehicle towed to a Honda service center. In Canada or the continental U.S.A. simply call 1800-465-PLUS (7587) for Honda Plus Roadside Assistance. If the damage is smaller than 3/16ths of an inch (4 mm) and within the tire tread, proceed with the following instructions. TIRE VALVE Only one tire is flat. The puncture is smaller than 3/16ths of an inch (4 mm). The puncture is located within the tread. The wheel rim is not damaged. The tire bead is seated. ● VALVE CAP ● ● ● 1.
