In case of emergency

NOTE:
The compressor tire pressure gauge
may show a pressure reading of 87 psi
(600 kPa) for about 30 seconds while
inflating the tire. The pressure gauge is
indicating the pressure inside the sea-
lant can. When the sealant has been
injected into the tire the pressure
gauge will drop and indicate actual tire
pressure.

WARNING

. To avoid serious personal injury

while using the emergency tire
puncture repair kit:

— Securely tighten the compressor

hose to the tire valve. Failure to
do so can cause the sealant to
spray into the air and get into
your eyes or on the skin.

. Do not stand directly beside the

damaged tire while it is being
inflated because of the risk of the
rupture. If there are any cracks or
bumps, turn the compressor off
immediately.

If the tire pressure does not increase to 180

kPa (26 psi) within 10 minutes, the tire
may be seriously damaged and the tire
cannot be repaired with this tire repair
kit.
Contact a NISSAN dealer.

7. When the tire pressure is at the specified

amount, turn the air compressor off. If the
pressure cannot be inflated to the specified
amount, the air compressor can be turned
off at the minimum of 180 kPa (26 psi).
Remove the power plug from the power
outlet and quickly remove the hose from the
tire valve. Attach the protective cap and
valve cap. Properly stow the emergency tire
puncture repair kit in the trunk.

CAUTION

To avoid serious personal injury when
stowing the emergency tire puncture
repair kit:

. Keep the sealant bottle screwed

into the compressor. Failure to do
so can cause the sealant to spray
into the air and get into your eyes or
on the skin.

8. Immediately drive the vehicle for 10 minutes

or 3 km (2 miles) at a speed of 80 km/h (50
MPH) or less.

9. After driving, make sure that the air com-

pressor switch is in the OFF position, then
screw the hose securely onto the tire valve.
Check the tire pressure with the pressure
gauge. The temporary repair is completed if
the tire pressure does not drop.

Make sure the pressure is adjusted to the
pressure that is specified on the tire and
loading information label before driving.

10. If the tire pressure drops, repeat the steps

from 5 to 9. If the pressure drops again or
under 130 kPa (19 psi), the tire cannot be
repaired with this tire repair kit.
Contact
a NISSAN dealer.

The sealant bottle and hose can not be
reused to repair another punctured tire.
Contact a NISSAN dealer to purchase
replacements.

After repairing tire

See a NISSAN dealer for tire repair/replacement
as soon as possible.

WARNING

. After using Emergency Tire Sealant

to repair a minor tire puncture, do
not drive the vehicle at speeds
faster than 50 MPH (80 km/h).
