essential information
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
A C
HEC k t IRE PRESSURE warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display 01
and the low tire pressure warning light
02 will
illuminate when one or more tires are low in
pressure and air is needed.
•
The
tire
pressures
should
be
checked
when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
After the tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle
at speeds above 16 MPH (25km/h). The C
HEC k t IRE
PRESSURE
warning message and low tire pressure
warning light will extinguish.
w hen the low tire pressure warning light flashes
for 1 minute and then remains on, the TPMS is not
functioning properly. Have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer.
Tire pressure rises and falls, depending on the heat caused by the vehic\
le’s operation and
the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperatu\
re of the air
inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This m\
ay cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, \
check the tire pressure
in your tires.
•
Check
the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Pl\
ease refer to
“Technical and consumer information (section 9)” in your Owner’\
s Manual for the location of
the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
