    Do not operate the compressor for more than 10 minutes.

    If the tyre pressure does not increase to the specified pressure within 10 minutes, the tyre may be seriously damaged and the tyre cannot be repaired with this tyre repair kit. Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.

  7. Remove the air compressor from the tyre valve. Immediately drive the vehicle at a speed of 80 km/h (50 MPH) or less.

  8. After 10 minute or 10 km (6 miles) drive, check the tyre pressure. The temporary repair is completed if the tyre pressure does not drop.

    If the tyre pressure is lower than specified, repeat the steps from step 4.

    If the pressure drops again or under 130 kPa (1,3 bar, 19 psi), the tyre cannot be repaired with this tyre repair kit. Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
