.Incorrect wheel nuts or impro-
perly tightened wheel nuts can
cause the wheel to become loose
or come off. This could cause an
accident.
. Do not use oil or grease on the
wheel studs or nuts. This could
cause the nuts to become loose.
. Retighten the wheel nuts when
the vehicle has been driven for
600 miles (1,000 km) (also in
cases of a flat tire, etc.).
.As soon as possible, tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque

Wheel nut tightening torque: 80 ft-lb (108 N·m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tigh-
tened to specifications at all times. It
is recommended that the wheel nuts
be tightened to specifications at each lubrication interval.

REPAIRING A FLAT TIRE (models
with emergency tire puncture re-
pair kit)
The emergency tire puncture repair kit is
supplied with the vehicle instead of a
spare tire. This repair kit must be used for
temporarily fixing a minor tire puncture.
After using the repair kit, it is recom-
mended that visit a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible for tire inspection and
repair/replacement.
CAUTION
.NISSAN recommends using only
Genuine NISSAN Emergency Tire
Sealant provided with your vehi-
cle. Other tire sealants may da-
mage the valve stem seal which
can cause the tire to lose air
pressure.
. Do not use the emergency tire
puncture repair kit provided with
your vehicle on other vehicles.
In case of emergency6-9

contact a NISSAN dealer about obtain-
ing these parts. See “Changing a flat tire
(models with spare tire)” (P.6-4) for
usage of jacking tools and tire replace-
ment.
Before using emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit
.If any foreign object (for example, a
screw or nail) is embedded in the tire,
do not remove it.
. Check the expiration date of the
sealant (shown on the label attached
to the bottle). Never use a sealant
whose expiration date has passed.
