TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
WITH EASY-FILL TIRE ALERT
A Tire Pressure Low Add Air 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.



• The tir

e pressures should be checked when
the tires are cold. The tires are considered
cold af ter the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
Af ter tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h). The Tire Pressure Low Add Air warning message and low tire
pressure warning light
2 will extinguish.
In addition to the Tire Pressure Low Add Air warning message, you can view
the individual tire’s pressure in the vehicle information display as well as the
recommended pressure, denoted by blue lettering, for each tire.
When adding air to an under -inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy-Fill Tire Alert
provides visual and audible signals to help you inflate the tire to the
recommended COLD tire pressure.



T
o use the Easy-Fill Tire Alert:



1.
Move the shif t lever to the P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.



2.

Plac
e the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.



3.

A
dd air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard
warning lights will start flashing.



4.

When the designated tir
e pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning flashers will stop flashing.



5
. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 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.



•


Check the tir

e pressure (including the spare tire) of ten and always prior to long
distance trips.
