WARNING:
. Never usewheel nutswhich arenot provided
with your vehicle. Incorrect wheelnutsor
improperly tightenedwheelnutsmaycause
the wheel tobecome looseorcome off.This
could cause anaccident.
. Never useoilorgrease onthe wheel studs
or nuts. Thismaycause thewheel nutsto
become loose.
. The T-type spare tireisdesigned foremer-
gency useonly. 1.
Clean anymud ordirt from thesurface between
the wheel andhub.
2. Carefully putthespare tireonand tighten the
wheel nutswithyour fingers. Checkthatallthe
wheel nutscontact thewheel surface horizontally .
3. Tighten thewheel nutsalternately andevenly in
the sequence illustrated(

) , more than2
times withthewheel nutwrench, untilthey are
tight.
4. Lower thevehicle slowlyuntilthetire touches the
ground.
5. Tighten thewheel nutssecurely ,with thewheel
nut wrench, inthe sequence illustrated.
6. Lower thevehicle completely .
Tighten thewheel nutstothe specified torque
with atorque wrench assoon aspossible.
Wheel nuttightening torque:
108 N´m (11kg-m, 80ft-lb)
The wheel nutsmust bekept tightened to
specification atall times. Itis recommended
that thewheel nutsbetightened tospecification
at each lubrication interval.
WARNING:
Retighten thewheel nutswhen thevehicle has
been driven for1,000 km(600 miles) (alsoin
cases ofaflat tire, etc.).
For models equipped withTirePressure
Monitoring System(TPMS)
GUID-16DE 3A91-C3BF -444C-BA0B-738A18EB BE53
. After adjusting thetire pressure, theTPMS must
be reset. SeeªTire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)º (P.6-2) ,ªTire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)º (P.5-4) andªTire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)º (P.8-36) fordetails aboutthe
resetting procedure.
. After adjusting tirepressure tothe COLD tire
pressure, thedisplay ofthe tire pressures (if
equipped inthe vehicle information display)may
show higher pressure thantheCOLD tire
pressure afterthevehicle hasbeen driven more
than 1.6km(1mile) .This isbecause thetire
pressurizes asthe tire temperature rises.This
does notindicate asystem malfunction.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
(TPMS) (ifequipped)
GUID-F 58BF3DF-6 647-4E90-9 8C6-3B8E77 13B953
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS) monitors
tire pressure ofall tires except thespare. Whenthelow
tire pressure warninglightislit, one ormore ofyour
tires issignificantly under-inflated.
The TPMS willactivate onlywhen thevehicle isdriven
at speeds above25km/h (16MPH) .Also, thissystem
may notdetect asudden dropintire pressure (for
example aflat tire while driving) .
For more details abouttheTPMS, seeªTire Pressure

TIRE INFLA TION PRESSURE
T32A130 827-90622 EBC-3A8D-41F6-8B20-6 699CA22E4EE
Periodically checkthepressure ofthe tires, including
the spare. Anincorrect tirepressure mayadversely
affect tirelifeand vehicle handling. Thetirepressure
should bechecked whentiresareCOLD. Tiresare
considered COLDafterthevehicle hasbeen parked
for 3or more hours, ordriven lessthan 1.6km(1mile) .
COLD tirepressures areshown onthe tire placard.
Insufficient pressurecanlead toan overheating ofthe
tire and subsequent internaldamage. Athigh speeds,
this could resultintread separation andeven bursting
of the tire.
TYPES OFTIRES
T32A1308 27-F4ADFA12-B902-4BB7-BDEB -65DF9756DE64
CAUTION:
When changing orreplacing tires,besure all
four tires areofthe same type(that is,summer,
all season orsnow) andconstruction. ANISSAN
dealer maybeable tohelp youwith information
about tiretype, size,speed ratingandavail-
ability.
Replacement tiresmayhave alower speed ratingthan
the factory equipped tires,andthey maynotmatch the
potential maximum vehiclespeed.Neverexceed the
maximum speedratingofthe tire.
All season tires
T32A130827- E671C002-8738-4216-AE C8-6CD14C8720FA
NISSAN specifies allseason tiresonsome models to
provide goodperformance allyear, including snowy
and icyroad conditions. Allseason tiresareidentified
by ALL SEASON and/orM&Sonthe tiresidewall.
Snow tireshave better snowtraction thanallseason
tires andmay bemore appropriate insome areas.
Summer tires
T32A130 827-7935F4 FA-4F3E-416 C-8CF7-BB4 329FCC988
NISSAN specifies summertiresonsome models to
provide superior performance ondry roads. Summer
tire performance issubstantially reducedinsnow and
ice. Summer tiresdonot have thetiretraction rating
M&S onthe tire sidewall.
If you plan tooperate yourvehicle insnowy oricy
conditions, NISSANrecommends theuse ofsnow or
all season tiresonallfour wheels.
Snow tires
T32A130827- D491D99F-25 20-4F05-BD0B-08E3B4DC F929
If snow tiresareneeded, itis necessary toselect tires
equivalent insize andload rating tothe original
equipment tires.Ifyou donot, itcan adversely affect
the safety andhandling ofyour vehicle.
Generally ,snow tireshave lower speed ratings than
factory equipped tiresandmay notmatch thepotential
maximum vehiclespeed.Neverexceed themaximum
speed ratingofthe tire. Ifyou install snowtires,they
must bethe same size,brand, construction andtread
pattern onallfour wheels.
For additional tractiononicy roads, studded tiresmay
be used. However, somestates andprovinces prohibit
their use.Check local,stateandprovincial lawsbefore
installing studdedtires.Skidandtraction capabilities
of studded snowtiresonwet ordry surfaces maybe
poorer thanthatofnon-studded snowtires.
TIRE CHAINS
T32A1308 27-00A7D296-B49D-4E 98-B78C-D04C1A0CDB83
Use oftire chains maybeprohibited accordingto
location. Checkthelocal lawsbefore installing tire
chains. Wheninstalling tirechains, makesurethatthey
are ofproper sizeforthe tires onyour vehicle andare
installed according tothe chain manufacturer's in-
structions.
Use chain tensioners whenrecommended bythe tire
chain manufacturer toensure atight fit.Loose endlinks
of the tire chains mustbesecured orremoved to
prevent thepossibility ofwhipping actiondamage to
the fenders orunderbody .If possible, avoidfully
loading yourvehicle whenusing tirechains. Inaddition,
drive atareduced speed.Otherwise, yourvehicle may
be damaged and/orvehicle handling andperformance
may beadversely affected.
