Before driving, stow the compressor and
make sure that the rear seat cushion is
properly secured.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 3 miles (5
km) again, check the tire pressure using
the air pressure gauge on the compressor.
If the tire pressure has apparently not
dropped, the emergency repair procedure
is complete. Before driving, make sure
that the compressor is stowed and the seat
cushion is properly secured. You must
still not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80
km/h). Observe local speed limits.
21. Immediately drive with great care to a
certified i-MiEV dealer and have tire
repair/replacement performed.

If you need to tow your vehicle, contact a cer-
tified i-MiEV dealer or a commercial tow
truck service.
Transport the vehicle on a flatbed truck or
tow the vehicle either with all wheels or the
rear wheels (drive wheels) off the ground.
CAUTION
If the tire pressure is lower than the mini-
mum permitted pressure (18 psi {130 kPa}),
the tire cannot successfully be repaired with
the tire sealant. Do not drive the vehicle any
further. Contact a certified i-MiEV dealer.
NOTE
If the tire pressure has dropped below the
specified level when you check it at the end
of the repair procedure, do not drive the
vehicle any further. Contact a certified i-
MiEV dealer.
In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 32 °F {0 °C} or lower), the time
and driving distance necessary until comple-
tion of the repair can become longer than in
warmer conditions, and the tire pressure may
drop below the specified level even after you
have inflated the tire the second time and
subsequently driven the vehicle. If this hap-
pens, inflate the tire to the specified pressure
once more, drive for about 10 minutes or 3
miles (5 km), then check the tire pressure
again. If the tire pressure has again dropped
below the specified level, stop driving the
vehicle and contact a certified i-MiEV
dealer.
NOTE
Please give the empty sealant bottle to a cer-
tified i-MiEV dealer or dispose of the sealant
bottle according to regulations for the dis-
posal of chemical waste.
