Jacking Up the Vehicle and Changing a Tire
LEAF is not equipped with a jack or spare tire as standard equipment. However, the following jacking
instructions apply when using the optional NISSAN jack. 1. Place the jack directly under the jack-up point asillustrated so the top of the jack contacts the vehicle
at the jack-up point. Align the jack head between the two
notches in the front or the rear as shown. Also fit the
groove of the jack head between the notches as shown.
The jack should be used on level firm ground.
2. Loosen each wheel nut one or two turns by turning it counterclockwise with the wheel nut wrench. Do not remove the wheel nuts until the tire is off the ground.
3. To lift the vehicle, securely hold the jack lever and rod with both hands as shown. Carefully raise the vehicle until the tire clears the ground. Remove the wheel nuts, and then remove the tire. AAYIA0124ZZ

4-7.2 Repairing the Tire
1. Take out the speed restriction sticker from the air
compressor, then put it in a location where the driver can
see it while driving. Do not obstruct the view of gauges or
warning
lights with the sticker. Do not put the
sticker on the steering wheel pad.
2. Take the hose (1) and power plug (2) out of the aircompressor. Remove the cap of the bottle holder from
the air compressor.
3. Remove the cap from the tire sealant bottle and screw the bottle clockwise onto the bottle holder. Leave the
bottle seal intact. Screwing the bottle onto the bottle
holder will pierce the seal of the bottle.
4. Remove the cap from the tire valve on the flat tire. AAYIA0131ZZ
