TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)

WITH EASY FILL TIRE ALERT

A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning
message will appear in the vehicle information
display

1

and the low tire pressure

warning light

2

will illuminate when one

or more tires are low on pressure and air
is needed.

• The tire pressures should be checked when the

tires are cold. The tires are considered cold
after the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or
more or driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy Fill Tire
Alert provides visual and audible signals outside the vehicle to help
you inflate the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.

To use the Easy Fill Tire Alert system:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.
3. Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard warning

lights will start flashing.

4. When the designated tire pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the

hazard warning flashers will stop flashing.

5. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph
(25 km/h). The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message and low tire pressure
warning light will extinguish.

When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the
TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

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 pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, check
the tire pressure in your tires.

• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long

distance trips.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer
to “Technical and consumer information (section 9),” in your Owner’s Manual for the
location of the Tire and Loading Information label.

For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)”
and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
