TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
WARNING
Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use a pace-
maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible
influences before use.
This vehicle is equipped with TPMS. It moni-
tors tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
When the low tire pressure warning light (if
so equipped) is lit and the “Tyre Pressure Low
- Add Air” warning appears in the vehicle
information display, one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated. If equipped,
the system also displays pressure of all tires
(except the spare tire) on the display screen
by sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h).

WHEELS AND TIRES
Maintenance and do-it-yourself8-31

Also, this system may not detect a sudden
drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire
while driving).
For additional information, refer to “Low tire
pressure warning light” in the “Instruments
and controls” section and “Flat tire” in the “In
case of emergency” section of this manual.
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressures (including the spare)
often and always prior to long distance trips.
The recommended tire pressure specifica-
tions are shown on the tire placard under the
“Cold Tire Inflation Pressure” heading. The
tire placard is affixed to the driver side center
pillar. Tire pressures should be checked regu-
larly because:∙ Most tires naturally lose air over time.
∙ Tires can lose air suddenly when driven over potholes or other objects or if the
vehicle strikes a curb while parking.
The tire pressures should be checked when
the tires are cold. The tires are considered
COLD after the vehicle has been parked for 3
or more hours or driven less than 1.6 km
(1 mile) at moderate speeds. The TPMS with tire inflation indicator pro-
vides visual and audible signals outside the
vehicle for inflating the tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure. For additional
information, refer to “TPMS with Tire Infla-
tion Indicator ” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
Incorrect tire pressure, including under infla-
tion, may adversely affect tire life and ve-
hicle handling.
WARNING
∙ Improperly inflated tires can fail sud-
denly and cause an accident.
∙ Before taking a long trip, or whenever you heavily load your vehicle, use a tire
pressure gauge to ensure that the tire
pressures are at the specified level.
Tire placard
ATire size: The size of the tires originally
installed on the vehicle at the factory.
BTire pressure: Inflate the tires to this
pressure when the tires are cold. Tires
are considered COLD after the vehicle
has been parked for 3 or more hours, or
driven less than 1.6 km (1 mile) at moder-
ate speeds. The recommended cold tire
inflation is set by the manufacturer to
provide the best balance of tire wear and
vehicle handling characteristics based on
the vehicle’s GVWR.

8-32Maintenance and do-it-yourself

Checking tire pressure
1. Remove the valve stem cap from the tire.
2. Press the pressure gauge squarely ontothe valve stem. Do not press too hard or
force the valve stem sideways, or air will
escape. If the hissing of air escaping
from the tire is heard while checking the
pressure, reposition the gauge to elimi-
nate this leakage.
3. Remove the gauge.
4. Read the tire pressure on the gauge stem and compare to the specification
shown on the tire placard. 5. Add air to the tire as needed. If too much
air is added, press the core of the valve
stem briefly with the tip of the gauge
stem to release pressure. Recheck the
pressure and add or release air as
needed.
6. Install the valve stem cap.
7. Check the pressure of all other tires, including the spare.

TYPES OF TIRES
WARNING
∙ When changing or replacing tires, be sureall four tires are of the same type (i.e.,
Summer, All Season or Snow) and con-
struction. An INFINITI retailer may be
able to help you with information about
tire type, size, speed rating and
availability.
∙ Replacement tires may have a lower speed rating than the factory equipped
tires, and may not match the potential
maximum vehicle speed. Never exceed
the maximum speed rating of the tire.
∙ Replacing tires with those not originally specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the low tire pressure
warning system. ∙ Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction and tread pattern on
all four wheels. Failure to do so may re-
sult in a circumference difference be-
tween tires on the front and rear axles
which can cause the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system to malfunction re-
sulting in personal injury or death, exces-
sive tire wear and may damage the trans-
mission, transfer case and differential
gears.
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models
CAUTION
∙ ONLY use spare tires specified for the AWD model.
If excessive tire wear is found, it is recom-
mended that all four tires be replaced with
tires of the same size, brand, construction
and tread pattern. The tire pressure and
wheel alignment should also be checked and
corrected as necessary. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
All season tires
INFINITI specifies All Season tires on some
models to provide good performance all year,
including snowy and icy road conditions. All Season tires are identified by ALL SEASON
and/or M&S on the tire sidewall. Snow tires
have better snow traction than All Season
tires and may be more appropriate in some
areas.
Summer tires
INFINITI specifies summer tires on some
models to provide superior performance on
dry roads. Summer tire performance is sub-
stantially reduced in snow and ice. Summer
tires do not have the tire traction rating
“M&S” on the tire sidewall.
If you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or
icy conditions, INFINITI recommends the use
of SNOW tires or ALL SEASON tires on all
four wheels.
Snow tires
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to
select tires equivalent in size and load rating
to the original equipment tires. If you do not,
it can adversely affect the safety and han-
dling of your vehicle.
Generally, snow tires have lower speed rat-
ings than factory equipped tires and may not
match the potential maximum vehicle speed.
Never exceed the maximum speed rating of
the tire.
8-34Maintenance and do-it-yourself

If you install snow tires, they must be the
same size, brand, construction and tread pat-
tern on all four wheels.
For additional traction on icy roads, studded
tires may be used. However, some states,
provinces and territories prohibit their use.
Check local laws before installing studded
tires. Skid and traction capabilities of studded
snow tires on wet or dry surfaces may be
poorer than that of non-studded snow tires.
TIRE CHAINS
CAUTION
Tire chains/cables should not be installed
on 235/55R20 size tires. Installation of the
tire chains/cables on 235/55R20 size tires
will cause damage to the vehicle. If you plan
to use tire chains/cables, you should install
235/65R18 size tires on your vehicle.
Use of tire chains may be prohibited accord-
ing to location. Check the local laws before
installing tire chains. When installing tire
chains, make sure they are the proper size for
the tires on your vehicle and are installed
according to the chain manufacturer’s sug-
gestions. Use only SAE class “S” chains. Class
“S” chains are used on vehicles with restricted
tire to vehicle clearance. Vehicles that can use
Class “S” chains are designed to meet the minimum clearances between the tire and the
closest vehicle suspension or body compo-
nent required to accommodate the use of a
winter traction device (tire chains or cables).
The minimum clearances are determined us-
ing the factory equipped tire size. Other types
may damage your vehicle. Use chain tension-
ers when recommended by the tire chain
manufacturer to ensure a tight fit. Loose end
links of the tire chain must be secured or
removed to prevent the possibility of whip-
ping action damage to the fenders or under-
body. If possible, avoid fully loading your ve-
hicle when using tire chains. In addition, drive
at a reduced speed. Otherwise, your vehicle
may be damaged and/or vehicle handling
and performance may be adversely affected.
Do not use tire chains on dry roads. Driving
with chains in such conditions can cause
damage to the various mechanisms of the
vehicle due to some overstress.CHANGING WHEELS AND TIRES
Tire rotation
INFINITI recommends rotating the tires ev-
ery 10,000 km (6,000 miles) for 2WD ve-
hicles and 5,000 km (3,000 miles) for AWD
vehicles.
For additional information on tire replacing
procedures, refer to “Flat tire” in the “In case
of emergency” section of this manual.
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts
to the specified torque with a torque wrench.
