Operation Manual

WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury while us-
ing 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 dam-
aged tire while it is being inflated be-
cause of the risk of the rupture. If there
are any cracks or bumps, turn the com-
pressor off immediately.
If the tire pressure does not increase to 26 psi
(180 kPa) within 10 minutes, the tire may
be seriously damaged and the tire cannot
be repaired with this tire repair kit. Con-
tact a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
7. When the tire pressure is at the specified
amount, turn the air compressor off. If the tire
cannot be inflated to the specified amount,
the air compressor can be turned off at the
minimum of 26 psi (180 kPa). 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
cargo area.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury when
stowing the emergency tire puncture re-
pair 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 2 miles (3 km) at a speed below 50 mph
(80 km/h).
9. After driving, make sure that the air compres-
sor switch is in the OFF position, then screw
the hose securely onto the tire valve. Check
the tire pressure with the pressure gauge.
Temporary repair is completed if the tire pres-
sure 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 19 psi (130 kPa), the tire cannot be
repaired with this tire repair kit. Contact
a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
The sealant bottle and hose cannot be reused
to repair another punctured tire. Contact a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer to purchase
replacements.
After repairing tire:
See a NISSAN certified LEAF 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).
•
Immediately after using Emergency
Tire Sealant to repair a minor tire
puncture, take your vehicle to a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer to in-
spect, and repair or replace the tire.
The Emergency Tire Sealant cannot
permanently seal a punctured tire.
Continuing operation of the vehicle
without a permanent tire repair can
lead to a crash.
• Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pres-
sure sensors.
