The wheel is heavy. Be sure that your feet are
clear of the wheel and use gloves as necessary
to avoid injury.
Installing the wheel
WARNING
The temporary use spare tyre is designed for
emergency use. See “Spare tyre” earlier in
this section.
Never use wheel nuts other than those pro-
vided with your vehicle. Incorrect wheel nuts
or improperly tightened wheel nuts may cause
the wheel to become loose or come off. This
could cause an accident.
Never use oil or grease on the wheel studs or
nuts. This may cause the wheel nuts to be-
come loose.

jC Bevelled face
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface between the wheel and the hub.
2. Carefully fit the wheel and tighten the wheel nuts with your fingers. Check that all the wheel nuts
contact the wheel surface horizontally and on the
bevelled side.
Models with wheel lock nut (where fitted):
Insert the wheel lock key into the wheel lock nut
and tighten into the wheel finger tight.
3. With the wheel wrench, tighten the wheel nuts alternately and evenly in the sequence as illus-
trated (
j1-j5 ) until they are tight.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tyre touches the ground.
5. Tighten the wheel nuts 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 the wheel nuts/or perpendicular to
valve hole (where fitted), to correctly align to
the centre.
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to
the specified torque with a torque wrench. Wheel nut tightening torque:
113 (12 kg-m, 83 ft-lb)
WARNING
Retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle has
been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles) (also in
cases of a flat tyre, etc.).
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to specifica-
tion at all times. It is recommended that the wheel
nuts 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, subwoofer
(where fitted), jack and tools are properly stored
after each use. Such items can become danger-
ous projectiles in an accident or sudden stop.
5–seater
1. Securely store the wheel with the flat tyre, the jack and the tools in the specified storage areas.
See “Getting the tools and spare wheel” earlier
in this section(for 5–seater).NCE287Z
