ESSE NTIAL I N FOR MATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WITH
EASY FILL TIRE ALERT (if so equipped)
A Tire Pressure Low - Add Air (if so equipped)
warning message will appear 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.



•


T

he 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). T he Tire Pressure Low - Add Air (if so equipped) warning
message and low tire pressure warning light
2 will extinguish.
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 recomme\
nded COLD
tire pressure.
To use the Easy Fill Tire Alert system (if so equipped):



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



2. Place the ignition switc
h in the ON position. Do not start the engine.



3.

Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the haza\
rd warning
lights will st

art flashing.



4.

W
hen the designated tire pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning lights will stop flashing.



5. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
When the low 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 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 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
2 to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates,
check the tire pressure in your tires.

Chec

k the tire pressures (including the spare tire) often and always prior\
to long
distance trips.
