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 (

WARNING
ā Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly tightened wheel nuts can cause the
wheel to become loose or come off.
This could cause an accident.

damage to the various mechanisms of the
vehicle due to some overstress.
CHANGING WHEELS AND TIRES
Tire rotation
NISSAN recommends rotating the
tires every 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
For additional information on the tire
replacing procedures, refer to āFlat

The wheel nuts must be kept tight-
ened to specifications at all times.
It is recommended that wheel nuts
be tightened to specification at
each tire rotation interval.
Because the tire pressures are dif-
ferent between the front and rear
tires, the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) must be reset af ter
tire rotation. For additional informa-
tion, refer to āTPMS sensor resetā in
this section.WARNING
ā Af ter rotating the tires, check and adjust the tire pressure.
ā Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
600 miles (1,000 km) (also in
cases of a flat tire, etc.).
ā Do not include the spare tire in the tire rotation.
