TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
WITH EASY-FILL TIRE ALERT
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message
will appear in the vehicle information display
1 and the low tire pressure warning light
2 will illuminate when one or more tires are
low in pressure and air is needed.
When adding air to an under -inflated tire, the
TPMS with Easy-Fill Tire Alert system provides visual and audible
signals to help you inflate the tire to the recommended COLD
tire pressure.
To use the Easy-Fill Tire Alert system: 1.


Appl
y the parking brake and push the P (PARK) switch on the shif t lever.



2.

Plac
e the power switch in the ON position. Do not place the power switch in
the ready to drive mode.

warning lights will flash.



4.

.
R
epeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
Af ter tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h) and the warning message and warning light will extinguish.
When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for approximately 1 minute
and then remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a Nissan dealer for this service.
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 of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light
2 to illuminate.
If the warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.
