WHO IS THE WARRANTORNissan1 warrants all parts of your 2006 Nissan vehicle supplied
by Nissan, except for those listed elsewhere under the caption
“WHAT IS NOT COVERED.”
APPLICABILITY■ This warranty is provided to the original and subsequent
owner(s) of a Nissan vehicle originally distributed by Nissan
which is originally sold by a Nissan authorized Nissan
dealership in the United States, and which is registered in
the U.S. and normally operated in the United States (in-
cluding Alaska and Hawaii), the United States territories
(specifically Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Puerto Rico
and the U.S. Virgin Islands), and Canada.
■ This warranty is generally transferable from the original
‘owner other than a Nissan dealer’ (OWNER) to subse-
quent owners of the vehicle at any time ownership of the
vehicle is transferred, without any action on your part;
except that this warranty is not transferable but is instead
void if
during the first six months after delivery to the
original OWNER: (1) ownership of the vehicle is trans-
ferred from the original OWNER,
and (2) the vehicle is
registered outside of the United States.
■ Your Nissan vehicle is manufactured to meet U.S. regula-
tions and environmental requirements. With the excep-
tion of privately owned vehicles belonging to members of
the U.S. military or employees and officers of the United
States Government stationed abroad, this warranty does
not apply if an otherwise covered vehicle is operated in, or
relocated to, a country other than those listed above
under this caption, except that it continues to apply if the
vehicle is operated in full compliance with its proper use
as described in the applicable OWNER’S MANUAL
2 while
touring outside of the United States, the U.S. territories or
Canada for a period not exceeding sixty (60) consecutive days
or sixty (60) days in any one 12 month period. Subject to the transferability restriction described above, this warranty ap-
plies to a relocated vehicle which is returned to, and is regis-
tered and normally operated in the United States, the U.S.
territories or Canada, except for conditions due to the vehicle’s
foreign operation, e.g., use of inappropriate fuels or other
fluids.
LIMITATION OF WARRANTIES AND OTHER
WARRANTY TERMS AND STATE LAW RIGHTS
EXTRA EXPENSES - LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES
This warranty does not cover incidental or consequential
damages such as loss of the use of the vehicle, inconve-
nience or commercial loss.
ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL BE LIMITED
TO THE DURATION OF THIS WRITTEN WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply
to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may
also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Nissan does not authorize any person to create for it any other
warranty, obligation or liability in connection with this vehicle.
THE WARRANTY BEGINSThe warranty period begins on the date the vehicle is delivered
to the first retail buyer or put into use, whichever is earlier.
Nissan makes available to you, and you are specifically required
by Federal Law to use BBB AUTO LINE [(800) 955-5100] before
exercising rights or seeking remedies under the Federal Magnuson-
Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. §2301, et. seq. You are not required
to first use BBB AUTO LINE if you seek remedies not created by
Title I of that Federal law, but are required to first use BBB AUTO
LINE if you seek remedies created by state law, including your
state's lemon law, if applicable state law provides for using a 703
compliant or similar process before filing suit. Please refer to pp. 2-
3 of this booklet and the "Supplement to 2006 Nissan Warranty
Information Booklet & 2006 Nissan Owner's Manual" for additional

tire explosion resulting in vehicle damage and/or serious
personal injury to you or a bystander. Never exceed 35
mph/60 km/h as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
gentle backward and forward rocking motion to free your
vehicle for continued driving. Never stand near or behind a
tire spinning at high speed as, for example, while attempt-
ing to push a vehicle that is stuck or when an on-the-car
spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two
thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32") remaining tread depth. All
new tires have treadwear indicators which appear as
smooth banks in the tread grooves when they wear to the
two thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32") level. Many wet
weather accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly
bald tires. Excessively worn tires are also more susceptible
to penetrations.
SIDEWALL TREATMENTSDunlop sidewalls are specially compounded to resist ozone
cracking or weather-cracking.
Use a mild soap solution to clean sidewalls, white striping
or lettering, and rinse off with plain water. Instruct service
per-sonnel and customers never to apply any other mate-
rial to enhance sidewall appearance. These may degrade
rubber and remove inherent ozone resistance.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGEFrequent inspection of your tires for signs of damage and
their general condition is important for safety. If you have
any questions, have your tire dealer inspect them. Impacts,
penetrations, cracks, knots, bulges, or air loss always
require tire removal and expert inspection. Never perform
a temporary repair or use an innertube as a substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIRNOTE
: Dunlop does not warrant any inspection or repair
process. The repair is entirely the responsibility of the
repairer and should be made in accordance with estab-
lished Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) proce-
dures.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT
YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury may result from explosion of tire/rim assem-
bly due to improper mounting procedures. Follow tire
manufacturer’s instructions and match tire diameter to rim
surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or place in
safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to
seat beads. Never use a volatile substance or a rubber
“donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-Ring”) to
aid bead seating. Only specially trained persons should
mount tires.
DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES
AND TYPES ON THE SAME AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Dunlop recommends
fitment of four (4) tires of the same type and size unless
otherwise specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL
GUIDELINES:
Fit newest tires on rear axle. If radials and non-radials must
be fitted to the same vehicle, fit radials on rear axle. Never
mix radials and non-radials on the same axle. When fitting
snow tires or all-season tires to performance vehicles,
always fit in sets for four. Do not fit tires with different speed ratings.
Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can
cause instability. When changing tire sizes, always consult
dealer for optimum rim width and carefully check vehicle/
tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRESRetreaded passenger and light truck tires are not war-
ranted by Dunlop for any reason. Dunlop speed ratings and
U.S. Department of Transportation test compliance certi-
fications are voided for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SUSPENSION,
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE
AND ROTATE YOUR TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/
over-inflation, wheel imbalance, and misalignment can
cause vibration or irregular tire wear. Rotate your tires
according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles/10,000 km.
LIGHTWEIGHT TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Limit vehicle speed when using the lightweight tempo-
rary spare tire to 50 mph/80 km/h or less.
• Check the inflation pressure before using and at least weekly. Maintain cold tire pressure in accordance with
that molded on the tire sidewall or found in your vehicle
owner’s manual. When inflating or adding air to light-
weight temporary spare tire, be very careful, since the
smaller tire volume can gain pressure quickly. Leave

valve core in place and add inflation air in short bursts.
Check the pressure often with an in-line or hand gauge
until the specified pressure is reached.
• The lightweight temporary spare tire may lower ground
clear-ance when used. Reduce speed and avoid driv-
ing over large obstacles or through chuckholes and
other road hazards.
• Check your car owner’s manual for other special clear- ance precautions when using the lightweight tempo-
rary spare tire provided in your vehicle.
• Because your lightweight temporary spare tire was specifically designed for your car, it should not be used
on any other vehicle.
• Do not use snow chains on your lightweight temporary spare tire. This could cause damage to your vehicle.
• Your lightweight temporary spare has very limited wear
potential (up to 300 miles/500 km).
• In order to conserve tire treadlife, the lightweight temporary spare tire should be returned to your trunk as
soon as the standard tire has been repaired or re-
placed. Never use the spare if treadwear indicator
(TWI) bars are exposed or it is worn to the last 2/32"
tread depth.
• Do not use your original equipment lightweight tempo- rary spare tire on any other than its original equipment
rim. The replacement lightweight temporary spare tire
must match the original equipment tire removed from
your lightweight temporary spare rim. Check the tire for
the lightweight temporary spare tire size marking des-
ignation and compare size markings with those found
on both your original lightweight temporary spare and
rim.
NOTE: Your original equipment lightweight temporary
spare tire and rim combination is not the same size as the
other tires and rims with which your vehicle is equipped.
Standard tires, snow tires, conventional wheel covers or
rim rings should not be fitted to your lightweight temporary
DUNLOP PASSENGER TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
spare tire rim or assembly.
• Improper mounting can cause tire/rim assembly explo- sion and serious injury. Tire Fitters: Follow tire
manufacturer’s instructions and match tire diameter to
rim diameter. Mount the lightweight temporary spare
tire only on a rim originally fitted with a temporary spare
of the same size. Lubricate beads and rim contact
surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or
place in a safety cage. STAND BACK; inflate in short
bursts with extension hose, clip-on chuck on in-line
gauge. Never exceed 40 psi to seat beads or use a
volatile substance or a rubber “donut” to aid bead
seating. Only specially trained persons should mount
lightweight temporary spare tires.
Dunlop brand tires are serviced by The Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Company and Goodyear Canada Inc. through

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS): Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the grooves
of the tire tread which show up when only
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread is remaining.
At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires
worn beyond this stage are dangerous.
HAZARDSObjects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects are potholes, glass, metal, rocks,
wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact should
prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the tires
or vehicle has occurred. DO NOT JAM OR LOCK YOUR
BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive with
caution until you can safely pull off the road. Stop and
inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or damaged,
deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and replace it
with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause, have the
vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire dealer to have
the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND
DEMOUNTING OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire
yourself. Tire changing can be dangerous and must be
done by professionally trained persons using proper tools
and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufacturers
Association (RMA). Follow these mounting recom-
mendations. Your tires should be mounted on wheels of
correct size and type and which are in good, clean condi- tion. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may cause tire dam-
age. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign
materials.
Have your dealer check the wheels before
mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims can
explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims
can result in dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is
mounted by error on the wrong-sized rim, do not remount
it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may be damaged internally
(which is not externally visible) by being dangerously
stretched and could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps. This
will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard against
leakage.
REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE
DEALER AT ONCE. Some tire manufacturers do not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair is
entirely the responsibility of the repairer. Punctures in the
tread of a passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of an
inch (6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by following
the Rubber Manufacturer's Association (RMA) Passenger
and Light Truck Repair procedures. Contact the manufac-
turer of your tires for its position and assistance as to the
acceptable location for a proper repair and the repair of
speed rated tires. Do not use plug repairs. They may
cause further damage to the tire. They are not always air tight and the plug may fail.
Do not exceed
posted speed limits on any repaired tire. Certain tire
manufacturers speed ratings are voided if the tire is
repaired.
Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds 1/4
inch (6mm), the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally by
a tire dealer for possible damage that may have occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause an
explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially trained
persons should perform these tasks. Contact your tire
store or dealer for assistance.
CAUTION - Never, under any circumstance, intro-
duce a flammable substance into a tire.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCINGWheel alignment and balancing are important for safety
and maximum mileage from your tires. Check how your tires
are wearing at least once a month. If your tires are wearing
unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire wearing
faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive
vibration, your vehicle may be out of alignment or balance.
These conditions not only shorten the life of your tires, but
adversely affect the handling characteristics of your vehicle
which could be dangerous. If you detect irregular wear or
vibration, have your alignment and balance checked imme-
diately. Tires which have been run underinflated will show
more wear on the shoulders than in the center of the tread.
