Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Inflation Indicator
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 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.
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the TPMS
with Tire Inflation Indicator provides visual and audible signals to hel\
p
you inflate the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the Tire Inflation Indicator:
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 an\
d the hazard
warning flashers will stop.
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 approximately 1 min\
ute and then remains
on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by an \
INFINITI retailer.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicl\
e’s operation and
the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the ai\
r 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 pr\
ior 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)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
