alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to

continue to function properly.

Additional information

. The TPMS does not monitor the tire

pressure of the spare tire.

. The TPMS will activa te only when the

vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH

(25 km/h). Also, this system may not detect

a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a

flat tire while driving).

. The low tire pressure warning light does not

automatically turn off when the tire pressure

is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the

recommended pressure, the vehicle must be

driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h)

to activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire

pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure

gauge to check the tire pressure.

. Tire pressure rises and falls depending on

the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation

and the outside temperature. Low outside

temperature can lower the temperature of

the air inside the tire which can cause a

lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause

the low tire pressur e warning light to

illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in

low ambient temperature, check the tire

pressure for all four tires.

For additional information, see “Low tire pres-

sure warning light” in the “2. Instruments and

controls” section and “TIRE PRESSURE MON-

ITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” in the “6. In case of

emergency” section.

WARNING

. If the low tire pressure warning light

illuminates while driving, avoid sud-

den steering maneuvers or abrupt

braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull

off the road to a safe location and

stop the vehicle as soon as possi-

ble. Driving with under-inflated tires

may permanently damage the tires

and increase the likelihood of tire

failure. Serious vehicle damage

could occu r and may lead to an

accident and could result in serious

personal injury. Check the tire pres-

sure for all four tires. Adjust the tire

pressure to the recommended COLD

tire pressure shown on the Tire and

Loading Information label to turn

the low tire pressure warning light

OFF. If you have a flat tire, replace it

with a spare tire as soon as possi-

ble. (See “FLAT TIRE” in the “6. In

case of emergency” section for

changing a flat tire.)

. When a spare tire is mounted or a

wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure

warning light will flash for approxi-

mately 1 minute. The light will

remain on after 1 minute. Contact

your NISSAN dealer as soon as

possible for tire replacement and/

or system resetting.

. Replacing tires with those not ori-

ginally specified by NISSAN could

affect the proper operation of the

TPMS.

. Do not i nject any tire l iqui d or

aerosol tire sealant into the tires,

as this may cause a malfunction of

the tire pressure sensors.

CAUTION

. The TPMS may not function properly

when the wheels are equipped with

tire chains or the wheels are buried

in snow.

. Do not place metalized film or any

metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the

windows. This may cause poor re-

ception of the signals from the tire
