ESSE NTIAL INFORMATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A CHECK TIRE PRES warning message will display in the trip computer 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 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 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds
above 16 mph (25 km/h). The CHECK TIRE PRES warning
message and the low tire pressure warning light will extinguish.

When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for
approximately 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 tempe\
rature of
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.
• Check the tire pressures (including the spare tire) often 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 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.
