TRAILER TOWINGIf you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire dealer
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 infl ation pressure or the tire load rating be
exceeded. Check the tire decal and your Owner’s Manual
for further recommendations on trailer towing.
TIRE ALTERATIONSDo not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterations may
prevent proper performance, leading to tire damage, which
can result in an accident. Tires which become unserviceable
due to alterations such as truing, whitewall inlays, addition
of balancing or sealant liquids, may be excluded from
warranty coverage. Consult your tire warranty.
HIGH PRESSURE TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Nissan vehicle 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, glass,
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 standard tire can be repaired
or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was specifi cally 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 infl ation pressure monthly and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm
2) 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 originally 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 temporary spare tire fi tted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes suddenly when driving on a high-pressure temporary spare.
Note: When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to
follow the vehicle Owner’s Manual instructions.
TIRE STORAGEAll 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 Accident:
• Check tire pressure at least once a month when
tires are cold and before long trips.
• Do not underinfl ate/overinfl ate.
• 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 dealer or your
Nissan dealership.

passenger tire care, safety and mileage performance is

WHAT IS COVERED?
Nissan* warrants your Genuine Nissan Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under "What
is not covered?"
This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND WHAT WILL
NISSAN DO
Nissan will replace your battery without charge if it becomes
unserviceable within the fi rst 24 months of service.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Nissan will provide a replacement battery at a reduced
price, charging only for the portion of the life of the battery
actually used. This is called a "pro-rata adjustment". Nissan
will pay for all labor charges in replacing the battery if it was
originally installed by an authorized Nissan dealer.
This warranty and the "pro-rata adjustment" end 84 months
after the date of the battery's purchase or installation,
whichever is earlier.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from: • Accident, theft, fi re or freezing.
• Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use
is described in the vehicles Owner's Manual.
• Improper installation or battery charging.
• Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.• Modifi cation or improper repair of the vehicle or a part of the vehicle.
• Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design to parts supplied by Nissan.
• Environmental conditions, including, but not limited to fl ood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of discharged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4. Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage, failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Nissan battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a "salvage
" or similar title under any state's law, and this warranty
is rendered void for any battery installed in a vehicle
prior to the vehicle being issued a "salvage" or similar
title unless state law expressly states otherwise. (This
exclusion does not extend to a new Genuine Nissan
battery installed in the vehicle after the issuance of a
"salvage" or similar title) .
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the war-
ranted battery or the vehicle in which the battery is installed
to an authorized Nissan dealer in the U.S. or Canada at your
expense, with proof of purchase (parts invoice or service
repair order from an authorized Infi niti dealer) . The names
and addresses of authorized Nissan dealers are listed in
telephone directories or www.NissanUSA.com
If the "pro-rata adjustment" applies, you must pay for the
portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you actually
used. The amount you pay is computed in two steps.
First, the customer pay percentage is determined from
the chart shown below based upon the months of actual
battery service. Months Customer Pay
In Service Percentage
0-24 0%
25-32 25%
33-50 50%
51-84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new battery
is multiplied by the customer pay percentage. For example,
should the battery fail after 40 months of service you would
pay 50% of the suggested retail price of the new battery.
You must also pay for the labor charge to remove and
replace the battery if it was not originally installed in your
vehicle by an authorized Nissan Dealer.
