IClean the inner side of the wheels when
the wheel is changed or the underside of
the vehicle is washed.
IDo not use abrasive cleaners when
washing the wheels.
IInspect wheel rims regularly for dents or
corrosion. This may cause loss of pres-
sure or damage the tire bead.
INISSAN recommends waxing the road
wheels to protect against road salt in
areas where it is used during winter.
Spare tire
Your vehicle may be equipped with a TEM-
PORARY USE ONLY spare tire.
To avoid property damage or personal injury
when using the TEMPORARY USE ONLY
spare tire, observe the following cautions:
WARNING
IThe spare tire should be used for
emergency use only. It should be
replaced by the standard tire at the
first opportunity to avoid possible
tire or differential damage.IDrive carefully while the TEMPO-
RARY USE ONLY spare tire is in-
stalled. Avoid sharp turns and
abrupt braking while driving.
IPeriodically check spare tire infla-
tion pressure. Always keep the pres-
sure of the T135/70R16 spare tire at
60 psi (420 kPa, 4.2 bar). For the full
size spare tire pressure, check the
tire placecard located on the inside
of the glovebox lid.
IDo not drive the vehicle at speeds
faster than 50 MPH (80 km/h).
I
When driving on roads covered with
snow or ice, the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire should be used on
the front wheels and the original tire
used on the rear wheels (drive
wheels). Use tire chains only on the
two rear original tires.
ITire tread of the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire will wear at a faster
rate than the standard tire. Replace
the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare
tire as soon as the tread wear indi-
cators appear.IDo not use the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire on other vehicles.
IDo not use more than one TEMPO-
RARY USE ONLY spare tire at the
same time.
IDo not tow a trailer when the TEM-
PORARY USE ONLY T135/70R16
spare is installed.
CAUTION
I
The transfer control lever must
be in the 2H position to prevent the
transfer case and differential gears
from being damaged.
IDo not use tire chains on a TEMPO-
RARY USE ONLY spare tire. Tire
chains will not fit properly on a TEM-
PORARY USE ONLY spare tire and
may cause damage to the vehicle.
I
Because the TEMPORARY USE ONLY
spare tire is smaller than the original
tire, ground clearance is reduced. To
avoid damage to the vehicle, do not
drive over obstacles. Also, do not
drive the vehicle through an automatic
car wash since it might get caught.
