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.

The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning is active
as long as the low tire pressure warning light
remains illuminated.

For additional information, see “TIRE PRES-
SURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section and “TIRE
PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)”
in the “6. In case of emergency” section.

TPMS malfunction:

If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is
pushed ON. The light will remain on after the 1
minute. Have the system checked by a NISSAN
dealer. The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning
does not appear if the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates to indicate a TPMS malfunction.

For additional information, see “TIRE PRES-
SURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section. For the
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning, see “DOT
MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” later in
this section.

WARNING

. If the light does not illuminate with

the ignition switch pushed ON, 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 un-
der-inflated tires may permanently
damage the tires and increase the
likelihood of tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could
result 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 to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while driv-
ing after adjusting the tire pressure,
a tire may be flat. If you have a flat
tire, replace 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 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.

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 correctly install the

specified size of tires to the four
wheels.
