TIRE PRESSURE information
WARNING
. When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be
indicated, the TPMS will not function
and the low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The light will remain on after 1 minute.
Contact your INFINITI retailer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or
system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
The tire pressure will be displayed for
reference.
The pressure indication “** kPa” or“**
psi ”on the screen means that the pressure
is being measured. After a few driving
trips, the pressure for each tire will be
displayed.
For models with navigation system, to
change the measurement units, select the

troller and push the ENTER button.

SURE information will be displayed on the
screen. Check the pressure of all tires.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle ’s traveling
condition and the temperature.
After tire rotation is performed, tire pres-
sure will not be displayed in the actual tire
position. Drive the vehicle at over 25 MPH
(40 km/h) for approximately 10 minutes to
reset the display.

Monitoring System (TPMS), see “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS) ”in the “5.
Starting and driving ”section.
