TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
    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 tir e pressures should be checked when 
the tires are cold. The tires are considered 
cold af ter the vehicle has been parked for  
3 hours or more or driven less than 1 mi  
(1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
    Af ter tire pressures are adjusted, push the reset switch 3  
to turn off the CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message. 
To turn off the low tire pressure warning light 
2  , drive the 
vehicle at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h).
    When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 1 minute and then 
remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. 
It is recommended you visit a Nissan dealer for this service.
    Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s 
operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower 
the temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation 
pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light 
2to illuminate.  
If the warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.
   •   Check the tir e pressure (including the spare tire) of ten and always prior to long 
distance trips.
    The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please 
refer to the “Technical and consumer information (section 10)” of 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 “Do-it-yourself (section 8 )” of your Owner’s Manual.
