WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, in-
cluding tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” in the “8.
Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion. Many factors including tire infla-
tion, alignment, driving habits and road
conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the
tire replacement indicator for a certain
driving distance does not mean your
tires will last that long. Use the tire
replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
2. 3. 4. “Other” indicator
These indicators appears when the customer
set distance comes for checking or replacing
maintenance items other than the tires. Other
maintenance items can include such things as
the tire rotation. You can set or reset the
distance for checking or replacing the items.
(See “Trip computer” earlier in this section.) For
scheduled maintenance items and intervals, see
your NISSAN Service and Maintenance Guide.
