The wheel nuts must be kept tight-

ened to specifications at all times. It

is recommended that wheel nuts be

tightened to specification at each

tire rotation interval.

WARNING

After rotating the tires, check and

adjust the tire pressure.

Retighten the wheel nuts when

the vehicle has been driven for

600 miles (1,000 km) (also in

cases of a flat tire, etc.).

Do not include the spare tire in

the tire rotation.

Tire wear and damage

WARNING

Tires should be periodically in-

spected for wear, cracking, bulg-

ing or objects caught in the tread.

If excessive wear, cracks, bulging

or deep cuts are found, the tire(s)

should be replaced.

The original tires have built-in

tread wear indicators. When the

wear indicators are visible, the

tire(s) should be replaced.

Tires degrade with age and use.

Have tires, including the spare,

over 6 years old checked by a

qualified

technician

because

some tire damage may not be ob-

vious. Replace the tires as neces-

sary to prevent tire failure and

possible personal injury.

Improper service of the spare tire

may result in serious personal in-

jury. If it is necessary to repair the

spare tire, contact a NISSAN

dealer.

For additional information re-

garding tires, refer to “Important

Tire Safety Information” (US) or

Safety

Information”

mation Booklet.
