TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display
01 and the

low tire pressure warning light 02 will illuminate when

one or more tires are low on pressure and air is needed.



•


T

he 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 mile (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 1 6 MPH (25 km/h).
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message and the low tire pressure warning light
will extinguish.
When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then \
remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
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 o\
f the air inside the
tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.



•

Chec
k the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior \
to long distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please 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.
