permanently seal a punctured tire.
Continuing operation of the vehicle
without a permanent tire repair can
lead to a crash.

. If you used Emergency Tire Sealant

to repair a minor tire puncture, your
NISSAN dealer will also need to
replace the TPMS sensor in addition
to repairing or replacing the tire.

. NISSAN recommends using only

NISSAN Genuine Emergency Tire
Sealant provided with your vehicle.
Other tire sealants may damage the
valve stem seal which can cause the
tire to lose air pressure.

To start your engine with a booster battery, the
instructions and precautions below must be
followed.

WARNING

. If done incorrectly, jump starting

can lead to a battery explosion,
resulting in severe injury or death.
It could also damage your vehicle.

. Explosive hydrogen gas is always

present in the vicinity of the battery.
Keep all sparks and flames away
from the battery.

. Do not allow battery fluid to come

into contact with eyes, skin, clothing
or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is
a corrosive sulfuric acid solution
which can cause severe burns. If
the fluid should come into contact
with anything, immediately flush the
contacted area with water.

. Keep the battery out of the reach of

children.

. The booster battery must be rated at

12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.

. Whenever working on or near a

battery, always wear suitable eye
protectors (for example, goggles or
industrial safety spectacles) and
remove rings, metal bands, or any
other jewelry. Do not lean over the
battery when jump starting.

. Do not attempt to jump start a

frozen battery. It could explode
and cause serious injury.

. Your vehicle has an automatic en-

gine cooling fan. It could come on at
any time. Keep hands and other
objects away from it.
