10. Securely store the flat tire beneath thevehicle, from where the full size spare
was removed.
11. To reinstall the jack and tool kit, reverse steps 1 through 5.
CAUTION
Be sure to center the spare tire sus-
pending plate on the wheel and then lif t
the spare tire.
Jacking up vehicle and removing
the damaged tire (all models)
WARNING
∙ Never get under the vehicle while it issupported only by the jack. If it is nec-
essary to work under the vehicle, sup-
port it with safety stands.
∙ Use only the jack provided with your vehicle to lif t the vehicle. Do not use
the jack provided with your vehicle on
other vehicles. The jack is designed
for lif ting only your vehicle during a
tire change.
∙ Use the correct jack-up points. Never use any other part of the vehicle for
jack support. ∙ Never jack up the vehicle more than
necessary.
∙ Never use blocks on or under the jack.
∙ Do not start or run the engine while vehicle is on the jack. It may cause the
vehicle to move. This is especially true
for vehicles with limited slip
differentials.
∙ Do not allow passengers to stay in the vehicle while it is on the jack.
∙ Never run the engine with a wheel(s) off the ground. It may cause the ve-
hicle to move.

If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud,
etc., use the following procedure:1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system.
2. Activate the Electronic Locking Rear Differential (E-Lock) system (if so
equipped). For additional information,
refer to “Electronic Locking Rear Differ-
ential (E-Lock) system” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
3. Make sure the area in front and behind the vehicle is clear of obstructions.
4. Turn the steering wheel right and lef t to clear an area around the front tires.
5. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and backward.
∙ Shif t back and forth between R (Re- verse) and D (Drive).
∙ Apply the accelerator as little as pos- sible to maintain the rocking motion.
∙ Release the accelerator pedal before shif ting between R (Reverse) and D
(Drive). ∙ Do not spin the tires above 34 mph
(55 km/h) or above 12 mph (20 km/h)
if the E–Lock system (if so equipped)
is engaged.
6. If the vehicle cannot be freed af ter a few tries, contact a professional towing
service to remove the vehicle.

∙ The TPMS sensor may be damaged ifit is not handled correctly. Be careful
when handling the TPMS sensor.
∙ When replacing the TPMS sensor, the ID registration may be required. Con-
tact a NISSAN dealer for ID
registration.
∙ Do not use a valve stem cap that is not specified by NISSAN. The valve stem
cap may become stuck.
∙ Be sure that the valve stem caps are correctly fitted. Otherwise the valve
may be clogged up with dirt and
cause a malfunction or loss of
pressure.
∙ Do not install a damaged or deformed wheel or tire even if it has been re-
paired. Such wheels or tires could
have structural damage and could fail
without warning.
∙ The use of retread tires is not recommended.
∙ For additional information regarding tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety
Information” (US) or “Tire Safety Infor-
mation” (Canada) in the Warranty In-
formation Booklet.Four-wheel drive models
CAUTION
Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction (bias, bias-belted
or radial), and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Failure to do so may result in a
circumference difference between tires
on the front and rear axles which will
cause excessive tire wear and may
damage the transmission, transfer case
and differential gears.
If excessive tire wear is found, it is recom-
mended that all four tires be replaced with
tires of the same size, brand, construction
and tread pattern. The tire pressure and
wheel alignment should also be checked
and corrected as necessary. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
Wheel balance
Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle
handling and tire life. Even with regular use,
wheels can get out of balance. Therefore,
they should be balanced as required. Wheel balance service should be per-
formed with the wheels off the vehicle.
Spin balancing the wheels on the vehicle
could lead to mechanical damage.
∙ For additional information regarding
tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety
Information” (US) or “Tire Safety In-
formation” (Canada) in the Warranty
Information Booklet.
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.

Spare tire (FULL SIZE TEMPORARY
USE ONLY spare tire)
When replacing a wheel without the TPMS
such as the spare tire, the TPMS will not
function.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a full
size spare that is a different size or brand
than the tires originally installed on the ve-
hicle. This full size spare tire is intended for
temporary use only and should be re-
placed at the first opportunity.
Observe the following precautions if the
FULL SIZE TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire
must be used. Otherwise, your vehicle
could be damaged or involved in an acci-
dent:
WARNING
∙ The TEMPORARY FULL SIZE spare tireshould be used for emergency use
only. It should be replaced with the
standard tire at the first opportunity
to avoid possible tire or differential
damage. ∙ Drive carefully while the TEMPORARY
FULL SIZE spare tire is installed. Avoid
sharp turns and abrupt braking while
driving. The vehicle driving perfor-
mance may be affected when driving
on wet or snow covered roads.
∙ When the TEMPORARY FULL SIZE spare is installed, the following sys-
tems may not work correctly:
– Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
– Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) System
∙ Periodically check the TEMPORARY FULL SIZE spare tire inflation pressure.
Always keep the TEMPORARY FULL
SIZE inflated to the pressure specifi-
cation shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label.
∙ With the TEMPORARY FULL SIZE spare tire installed do not drive the vehicle
at speeds faster than 50 mph
(80 km/h). ∙ When driving on roads covered with
snow or ice, the TEMPORARY FULL SIZE
spare tire should be used on the front
wheels and the original tire used on
the rear wheels. Use tire chains only
on the drive wheels.
∙ Do not use the TEMPORARY FULL SIZE spare tire on other vehicles.
∙ Do not use 4WD when the TEMPO- RARY FULL SIZE spare tire is installed
∙ Do not use more than one TEMPO- RARY FULL SIZE spare tire at the same
time.
CAUTION
∙ Do not use tire chains on a TEMPO-RARY FULL SIZE spare tire. Tire chains
will not fit properly and may cause
damage to the vehicle.

ery 5,000 miles (8,000 km) according to the
instructions under “General maintenance”
in this section. When rotating tires, check
for damage and uneven wear. Replace if
necessary.
Transmission Fluid/Oil, Differential Oil,
Transfer Case Oil: Visually inspect for signs
of leakage at specified intervals.

∙ Replace the differential oil every 20,000 miles (32,000 km) or 24 months.
∙ Replace the automatic transmission fluid ever 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or
24 months. (For gasoline engine mod-
els)

NOTE:
Maintenance items with “” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions”.
(1) Periodic maintenance is not required under normal driving condition. If using under the severe condition such as towing a
trailer, using a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil at every 30,000 miles (48,000 km)
or 24 months. NISSAN recommends using Genuine NISSAN Matic S automatic transmission fluid. Using automatic transmission
fluid that is not equivalent to Genuine NISSAN Matic S may damage the transmission or impact transmission durability. Damage
caused by the use of fluid other than as recommended is not covered under the NISSAN New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
(2) If towing a trailer, using a camper or car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil at every
