The three-way catalystisan emission control
device installed inthe exhaust system.Exhaust
gases inthe three-way catalystareburned at
high temperatures tohelp reduce pollutants.
WARNING
. The exhaust gasand theexhaust
system arevery hot.Keep people,
animals orflammable materials
away fromtheexhaust systemcom-
ponents.
. Donot stop orpark thevehicle over
flammable materialssuchasdry
grass, wastepaperorrags. They
may ignite andcause afire.
CAUTION
. Do not use leaded gasoline. Depos-
its from leaded gasoline willser-
iously reduce thethree-way
catalyst's abilitytohelp reduce ex- haust
pollutants.
. Keep yourengine tunedup.Mal-
functions inthe ignition, fuelinjec-
tion, orelectrical systemscancause
overrich fuelflow intothethree-way
catalyst, causingitto overheat. Do
not keep driving ifthe engine mis-
fires, orifnoticeable lossofperfor-
mance orother unusual operating
conditions aredetected. Havethe
vehicle inspected promptlybya
NISSAN dealer.
. Avoid driving withanextremely low
fuel level. Running outoffuel could
cause theengine tomisfire, dama-
ging thethree-way catalyst.
. Donot race theengine whilewarm-
ing itup.
. Do not push ortow your vehicle to
start theengine.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-
TEM (TPMS)
GUID-70D EE521-236F-4 87A-BFBD-1A02741B 58A6
Each tire,including thespare (ifprovided) ,
should bechecked monthlywhencoldand
inflated tothe inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer onthe vehicle
placard ortire inflation pressure label.(Ifyour vehicle
hastires ofadifferent sizethan thesize
indicated onthe vehicle placard ortire inflation
pressure label,youshould determine theproper
tire inflation pressure forthose tires.)
As anadded safetyfeature, yourvehicle has
been equipped withaTire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) thatilluminates alow tire
pressure telltalewhenoneormore ofyour tires
is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly,when
the low tirepressure telltaleilluminates, you
should stopandcheck yourtiresassoon as
possible, andinflate themtothe proper pres-
sure. Driving onasignificantly under-inflated tire
causes thetiretooverheat andcanlead totire
failure. Under-inflation alsoreduces fueleffi-
ciency andtiretread life,and may affect the
vehicle's handlingandstopping ability.
Please notethattheTPMS isnot asubstitute for
proper tiremaintenance, anditis the driver's
responsibility tomaintain correcttirepressure,
even ifunder-inflation hasnotreached thelevel
to trigger illumination ofthe TPMS lowtire
pressure telltale.
Y our vehicle hasalso been equipped witha
TPMS malfunction indicatortoindicate whenthe
system isnot operating properly.The TPMS
malfunction indicatoriscombined withthelow

cator isilluminated, thesystem maynotbeable
to detect orsignal lowtirepressure asintended.
TPMS malfunctions mayoccur foravariety of
reasons, including theinstallation ofreplace-
ment oralternate tiresorwheels onthe vehicle
that prevent theTPMS fromfunctioning properly.
Always checktheTPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing oneormore tiresorwheels on
your vehicle toensure thatthereplacement or

. The TPMS doesnotmonitor thetire
pressure ofthe spare tire.
. The TPMS willactivate onlywhen the
vehicle isdriven atspeeds above16MPH
(25 km/h) .Also, thissystem maynotdetect
a sudden dropintire pressure (forexample a
flat tire while driving) .
. The lowtirepressure warninglightdoes not
automatically turnoffwhen thetirepressure
is adjusted. Afterthetireisinflated tothe
recommended pressure,thevehicle mustbe
driven atspeeds above16MPH (25km/h)
to activate theTPMS andturn offthe low tire pressure
warninglight.Useatire pressure
gauge tocheck thetirepressure.
. The CHECK TIREPRES (pressure) warning
message isdisplayed inthe vehicle informa-
tion display whenthelow tirepressure
warning lightisilluminated andlowtire
pressure isdetected. TheCHECK TIRE
PRES warning message turnsoffwhen the
low tirepressure warninglightturns off.The
low tirepressure warninglightremains
illuminated untilthetires areinflated tothe
recommended COLDtirepressure. The
CHECK TIREPRES warning message is
displayed eachtimetheignition switchis
placed inthe ON position aslong asthe low
tire pressure warninglightremains illumi-
nated. ªCheck tirepressure warningmes-
sageº (P.2-7) .
. The CHECK TIREPRES warning message
is not displayed ifthe low tirepressure
warning lightilluminates toindicate aTPMS
malfunction.
. Tire pressure risesandfalls depending on
the heat caused bythe vehicle's operation
and theoutside temperature. Lowoutside
temperature canlower thetemperature of
the airinside thetire which cancause a
lower tireinflation pressure. Thismaycause
the low tirepressure warninglightto
illuminate. Ifthe warning lightilluminates inlow
ambient temperature, checkthetire
pressure forallfour tires.
For additional information, seeªLow tirepres-
sure warning lightº(P.2-15) andªTire Pressure
Monitoring System(TPMS)º (P.6-3) .
WARNING
. Ifthe low tirepressure warninglight
illuminates whiledriving, avoidsud-
den steering maneuvers orabrupt
braking, reducevehicle speed,pull
off the road toasafe location and
stop thevehicle assoon aspossi-
ble. Driving withunder-inflated tires
may permanently damagethetires
and increase thelikelihood oftire
failure. Serious vehicledamage
could occurandmay lead toan
accident andcould result inserious
personal injury.Check thetire pres-
sure forallfour tires. Adjust thetire
pressure tothe recommended COLD

GUID-D6 EF18B1-2442 -473D-A573-60D459 B74FC7
This vehicle isequipped withtheTire Pressure
Monitoring System(TPMS).It monitors tire
pressure ofall tires except thespare. When
the low tirepressure warninglightislit, and the
CHECK TIREPRES (pressure) warningmes-
sage isdisplayed inthe vehicle information
display ,one ormore ofyour tires issignificantly
under-inflated.
The TPMS willactivate onlywhen thevehicle is
driven atspeeds above16MPH (25km/h) .
Also, thissystem maynotdetect asudden drop
in tire pressure (forexample aflat tire while
driving) .
For more details, seeªLow tirepressure warning

Check thepressure ofthe tires (including
the spare) oftenandalways priortolong
distance trips.Therecommended tire
pressure specifications areshown onthe
Tire and Loading Information labelunder
the ªCold TirePressureº heading.TheTire and
Loading Information labelisaffixed to
the driver sidecenter pillar.Tirepressures
should bechecked regularlybecause:
.
Most tiresnaturally loseairover time.
.
Tires canlose airsuddenly whendriven
over potholes orother objects orifthe
vehicle strikesacurb while parking.
The tirepressures shouldbechecked
when thetires arecold. Thetires are
considered COLDafterthevehicle has
been parked for3or more hours, ordriven
less than 1mile (1.6km)atmoderate
speeds.
Incorrect tirepressure, includingun-
der inflation, mayadversely affecttire
life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
.
Improperly inflatedtirescanfail
suddenly andcause anaccident.
.
The Gross Vehicle Weight rating
(GVWR) islocated onthe F.M .V.
S.S./C .M.V.S.S. certification la-
bel. The vehicle weightcapacity
is indicated onthe Tire and Loading
Information label.Do
not load yourvehicle beyond
this capacity. Overloading your
vehicle mayresult inreduced
tire life, unsafe operating condi-
tions duetopremature tirefail-
ure, orunfavorable handling
characteristic sand could also
lead toaserious accident. Load-
ing beyond thespecified capa-
city may also result infailure of
other vehicle components.
.
Before takingalong trip,or
whenever youheavily loadyour
vehicle, useatire pressure
gauge toensure thatthetire
pressures areatthe specified
level.
