spare wheel NISSAN MICRA 2021 Owners Manual

– When replacing tires, install thespecified size of tires on all four
wheels.
– When installing a spare tire, make sure that it is the proper size and
type as specified on the Tire and
Loading Information label. For ad-
ditional information, refer to “Tire
and Loading Information label” in
the “Technical and consumer infor-
mation” section of this manual.
– For additional information, refer to “Wheels and tires” in the “Do-it-
yourself ” section of this manual.
The ABS controls the brakes so the wheels
do not lock during hard braking or when
braking on slippery surfaces. The system
detects the rotation speed at each wheel
and varies the brake fluid pressure to pre-
vent each wheel from locking and sliding.
By preventing each wheel from locking, the
system helps the driver maintain steering
control and helps to minimize swerving
and spinning on slippery surfaces.
Using the system
Depress the brake pedal and hold it down.
Depress the brake pedal with firm steady
pressure, but do not pump the brakes. The Anti-lock Braking System will operate to
prevent the wheels from locking up. Steer
the vehicle to avoid obstacles.

Installing the spare tire
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surfacebetween the wheel and hub.
2. Carefully put the spare tire on and tighten the wheel nuts finger tight.
3. With the wheel nut wrench, tighten wheel nuts alternately and evenly in the
sequence illustrated (
A,B,C,D) until
they are tight.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touches the ground. Then, with the
wheel nut wrench, tighten the wheel nuts securely in the sequence illus-
trated (
A,B,C,D). Lower the vehicle
completely.

∙ The spare tire is designed for emer-gency use. For additional information
refer to “Wheels and tires” in the “Do-
it-yourself ” section of this manual.
∙ When reinstalling the spare tire bas- ket under the vehicle af ter use, be
sure that the hook engages the bas-
ket from the inside. If the spare tire
basket hook is not engaged properly,
there is an increased risk of the spare
tire separating from the vehicle in a
crash and causing injury.
Stowing the damaged tire
Securely store the damaged tire in the
cargo area.
Securely store the jack and tools in the
storage area.
Return the spare tire basket back to its
original position in the reverse order of re-
moval. For additional information, refer to
“Getting the spare tire and tools” in this sec-
tion. NOTE:
The spare tire basket cannot be used to
store the conventional tire.

Care of wheels
∙ Wash the wheels when washing the ve-hicle to maintain their appearance.
∙ Clean the inner side of the wheels when the wheel is changed or the underside
of the vehicle is washed.
∙ Do not use abrasive cleaners when washing the wheels.
∙ Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or corrosion. Such damage may cause
loss of pressure or poor seal at the tire
bead.
∙ NISSAN recommends waxing the road wheels to protect against road salt in
areas where it is used during winter.
