•Never use blocks on or under the jack.
•Do not start or run the engine while the ve-
hicle is on the jack. The vehicle may move
suddenly, and this may cause an accident.
•Never allow passengers to stay in the vehicle
while it is on the jack.
•Remove all loads before lifting the vehicle with
the jack.
•Make sure to block the wheel diagonally op-
posite the flat tyre as described earlier in this
section.
CAUTION
The jack should be used on firm, level ground.
1. Place the jack directly under the jack-up point as
illustrated so that the top of the jack contacts the
vehicle at the jack-up point.
2. Align the centre of both the jack head and the
protrusion at the jack-up point as shown.
3. Fit the protrusion of the vehicle in the groove of
the jack head as shown.4. Loosen each wheel bolt by one or two turns
anticlockwise with the wheel wrench.
Do not remove the wheel bolts until the tyre is
off the ground.
Models with wheel lock bolt (where fitted):
If the wheel is equipped with a wheel lock bolt,
insert the wheel lock key
j1 and loosen it as pre-
viously described.
The wheel lock bolt can only be removed with the
wheel lock key. A key number is necessary if you
need to duplicate the wheel lock key.
Record the key number as shown on the key
code card on the “Security information” page at
the end of this manual and keep it in a safe place,
not in the vehicle. If you loose the wheel lock key,
see your NISSAN dealer for a duplicate with the
original wheel lock key code.5. To lift the vehicle, securely hold and turn the
handle clockwise as shown.
6. Carefully raise the vehicle until the tyre clears the
ground.
7. Remove the wheel bolts, then remove the wheel
with the flat tyre.

Installing the wheel
WARNING
•The temporary use spare tyre is designed for
emergency use. See “Spare tyre” earlier in
this section.
•Never use wheel bolts that were not provided
with your vehicle. Incorrect wheel bolts or im-
properly tightened wheel bolts may cause the
wheel to become loose or come off. This
could cause an accident.
•Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts.
This may cause the wheel bolts to become
loose.
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface between
the wheel and the hub.
2. Carefully fit the wheel and tighten the wheel bolts
with your fingers.
Models with wheel lock bolt (where fitted):
Insert the wheel lock key into the wheel lock bolt
and tighten into the wheel finger tight.
3. With the wheel wrench, tighten the wheel bolts
alternately and evenly in the sequence as illus-
trated (
j1-j4 ) until they are tight.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tyre touches
the ground.
5. Tighten the wheel bolts securely using the wheel
wrench in the sequence as illustrated.
6. Lower the vehicle completely.
7. Install the wheel cover (where fitted).
NOTE
Before installation, align NISSAN logo (centre
cap) with bolt holes or perpendicular to valve
hole (where fitted), to correctly align to the
centre.
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel bolts to
the specified torque with a torque wrench.Wheel bolt tightening torque:
105 N•m (11 kg-m, 77 ft-lb)
WARNING
Retighten the wheel bolts after the vehicle has
been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles) (also in
cases of a flat tyre, etc.).
The wheel bolts must be kept tightened to specifi-
cation at all times. It is recommended that the wheel
bolts be tightened to specification at each mainte-
nance interval.
Adjust the tyre pressure to the COLD pressure.
COLD pressure is the tyre pressure as measured
after the vehicle has been parked for three hours or
more or driven for less than 1.6 km (1 mile).
COLD tyre pressures are shown on the tyre placard
affixed to the driver’s side centre pillar.
Stowing the wheel and tools
WARNING
Always make sure that the wheel, jack and tools
are properly stored after each use. Such items
can become dangerous projectiles in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
1. Securely store the tools, wheel with the flat tyre
and jack in the designated location of the lug-
gage compartment.
