NO CHARGE
Warranty repairs will be made at no charge for parts
and/or labor (except for tires, in which case you may pay
certain charges). Any needed parts replacement will be

remanufactured parts approved by Nissan for use on
Infiniti vehicles. Nissan reserves the right to make
changes at any time, without notice, to production and
service parts in their specifications, colors, and materi-

SAFETY WARNING
Disregarding any of the safety precautions and in-
structions contained in the Owner’s Manual or the
Important Tire Safety Information in this booklet
may result in tire failure or explosion causing seri-
ous personal injury or death.
44 CONTINENTAL/GENERAL TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

HAZARDS
Objects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects arepotholes, glass,metal,
rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the
tires or vehicle has occurred, DO NOT JAM OR LOCK YOUR
BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive with cau-
tion until you can safely pull off the road. Stop and
inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or damaged,
deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and replace it
with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause, have the
vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire retailer to
have the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire your-
self. Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done
by professionally trained persons using proper tools
and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufactur-
ers Association (RMA). Follow these mounting recom-
mendations. Your tires should be mounted on wheels of
correct size and type and which are in good, clean con-
dition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may cause tire
damage. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign
materials. Have your retailer check the wheels before
mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims can
explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and
rims can result in dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the wrong-sized rim, do not
remount it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may be dam-
aged internal
ly (which is not extern ally visible) by being
dangerously stretched and could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.
This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard
against leakage.
REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE RETAILER
AT ONCE. Some tire manufacturers do not warrant any
inspection or repair process. The repair is entirely the
responsibility of the repairer. Punctures in the tread of a
passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of an inch
(6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by following
the Rubber Manuf acturer’s Association (RMA)Passen-
ger and Light Truck Repair procedures. Contact the
manufacturer of your tires for it s position and assistance
as to the acceptable location for a proper repair and the
repair of speed rated tires. Do not use plug repairs. They
may cause further damage to the tire. They are not
always air tight and the plug may fail. Do not exceed
posted speed limits on any repaired tire. Certain tire
manufacturers speed ratings are voided if the tire is
repaired. Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds 1/4
inch (6mm), the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally
by a tire retailer for possible damage that may have
occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause
an explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially
trained persons should perform these tasks. Contact
your tire store or retailer for assistance.
CAUTION - Never, under any c
ircumstance, introduce a
flammable substance into a tire.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
Wheel alignment and balancing are important for safety
and maximum mileage from your tires. Check how your
tires are wearing at least once a month. If your tires are
wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect
excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of align-
ment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the
life of your tires, but adversely affect the handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your align-
ment and balance checked immediately. Tires which
have been run underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION147

TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire
retailer for advice concerning the correct size of tire and
pressure. Tire size and pressure will depend on the type
and size of the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or the tire
load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and your
Owner’s Manual for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterations
may prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-
age, which can result in an accident. Tires which be-
come unserviceable due to alterations such as truing,
whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liq-
uids, may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult
your tire warranty.
HIGH PRESS URE TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Nissan ve-
hicle is designed for temporary use only and
must not be used continually as a regular tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible.
2) Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage the tire through impact or cutting, such as
potholes, g lass,metal, etc.
3) Speed must not exceed 50MPH (80km/h) for non-speed-rated temporary spare tires. 4) Temporary spare tires have a limited treadlife
which can vary depending on road conditions
and your driving habits. The spare tire should
be returned to the trunk as soon as the stan-
dard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was spe- cifically designed for your car, it should not be
used on any other vehicle.
6) Do not use snow chains on your high-pressure spare. This could cause damage to your
vehicle.
7) Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm2) even when
not in use.
8) The high-pressure spare tire should not be used with any other rim nor should standard
tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be used on the
high-pressure spare tire rim which was origi-
nally installed.
9) When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only with the same type spare
tire.
10) Do not enter an automatic carwash with a tem- porary spare tire fitted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes suddenly when driving on a high-pressure tem-
porary spare.
Note: When using any temporary type spare
tire, be sure to follow the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual instructions.
TIRE STORAGE
All tires should be stored in a cool dry place indoors so
that there is no danger of water collecting inside them.
When tires are stored they should be stored in a cool
place away from sources of heat and ozone such as hot
pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces on
which tires are stored are clean and free from grease,
gasoline or other substances which could deteriorate
the rubber. (Tires exposed to these materials during
storage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)
To Avoid Damage to your Tires and Possible Acci-
dent:
● Check tire pressure at least once a month when
tires are cold and before long trips.
● Do not underinflate/overinflate.
● Do not overload.
● Drive at moderate speeds, observe legal limits.
● Avoid driving over potholes, obstacles, curbs or
edges of pavement.
● Avoid excessive wheel spinning.
● If you see any damage to a tire, replace with spare
and see the tire manufacturer’s retailer or your
Nissan retailer .

passenger tire care, safety and mileage performance is

try Safety Council, Box 1801, Washington, D.C. 20013.
