tirE Pr Essur E monitorin G systEm (tPms)
A CHECK tir E PrEs warning message will
display in the odometer
01 and the low tire pressure

warning light 02 will illuminate when one

or more tires are low on pressure and air
is needed.
• The 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 mile (1.6km) at
moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, press the reset
button
03 for more than 1 second. drive the vehicle

at speeds above 16 MPH (25km/h). The CHECK
tirE P rEs warning message and low tire pressure warning light will disappear.

When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for approximately 1 minute and then remains on,
the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

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 o\
f the air inside the
tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature, check
the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressures (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to section 9,
“Technical and consumer information”, in your Owner’s Manual for the location of the Tire and
Loading Information label.
for more information, refer to the “instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “starting and driving (section 5)” and the
