Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
   A Ch
EC k t IRE   PRESSURE  warning message will  
appear in the vehicle information display  
01  and  
the low tire pressure warning light 
02  will illuminate  
when one or more tires are low in 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.
   After the tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above\
 16 MP h  (25 km/h). The 
Ch
EC k t IRE   PRESSURE  warning message and low tire pressure warning light will extinguish.
   w hen the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then re\
mains on, the TPMS   
is not functioning properly. 
h ave the system checked by an INFINITI retailer.
   Tire pressure rises and falls, depending on the heat caused by the vehic\
le’s operation and  
the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperatu\
re of the air inside 
the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may caus\
e 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. Pl\
ease 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)”,  “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance  
and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
