WARNING

If the light does not illuminate with the

ignition switch placed in the ON posi-
tion, have the vehicle checked by a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.

If the light illuminates while driving,

avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure. Se-
rious vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could re-
sult in serious personal injury. Check
the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label located
in the driver’s door opening to turn the
low tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still comes on while driving
after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire
may be flat. If you have a flat tire, re-
place it with a spare tire as soon as
possible.

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 approximately 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 originally

specified by NISSAN could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.

CAUTION

The TPMS is not a substitute for the

regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.

If the vehicle is being driven at speeds

of less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the
TPMS may not operate correctly.

Be sure to install the specified size of

tires to the 4 wheels correctly.
