W ash thewheels whenwashing thevehicle to
maintain theirappearance.
. Clean theinner sideofthe wheels whenthe
wheel ischanged orthe underside ofthe
vehicle iswashed.
. Inspect wheelrimsregularly fordents or
corrosion. Suchdamage maycause lossof
pressure orpoor sealatthe tirebead.
. NISSAN recommends thattheroad wheels
be waxed toprotect against roadsaltin
areas where itis used during winter.
CAUTION
Do not use abrasive cleanerswhen
washing thewheels.
ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS
GUID-36 5F7FE3-3E13 -4C96-BDAE-48FF7 C0361FE
W ash regularly withasponge dampened ina
mild soap solution, especially duringwinter
months inareas where roadsaltisused. Salt
could discolor thewheels ifnot removed.
CAUTION
Follow thedirections belowtoavoid
staining ordiscoloring thewheels:
. Do not use acleaner thatuses
strong acidoralkali contents to
clean thewheels.
. Do not apply wheel cleaners tothe
wheels whentheyarehot. The
wheel temperature shouldbethe
same asambient temperature.
. Rinse thewheel tocompletely re-
move thecleaner within15minutes
after thecleaner isapplied.
CHROME PARTS
GUID-5B B31808-6290 -4F98-9904-5 031603D6ACF

TIRE DRESSING
GUID-D8 2454BF-681 8-4F9A-BCAA -709BC7775C3D
NISSAN doesnotrecommend theuse oftire
dressings. Tiremanufacturers applyacoating to
the tires tohelp reduce discoloration ofthe
rubber. Ifa tire dressing isapplied tothe tires, it
may react withthecoating andform acom-
pound. Thiscompound maycome offthe tire
while driving andstain thevehicle paint.
If you choose touse atire dressing, takethe following
precautions:
. Use awater-based tiredressing. Thecoat-
ing onthe tiredissolves moreeasily withan
oil-based tiredressing.
. Apply alight coat oftire dressing tohelp
prevent itfrom entering thetire tread/
grooves (whereitwould bedifficult to
remove) .
. Wipe offexcess tiredressing usingadry
towel. Makesurethetire dressing is
completely removedfromthetiretread/
grooves.
. Allow thetiredressing todry asrecom-
mended bytire dressing manufacturer.

Lights*: Cleantheheadlights onaregular basis.
Make surethattheheadlights, stoplights, tail
lights, turnsignal lights, andother lights areall
operating properlyandinstalled securely.Also
check headlight aim.
Road wheel nuts(lugnuts)*: Whenchecking
the tires, make surenowheel nutsaremissing,
and check forany loose wheel nuts.Tighten if
necessary .
Tire rotation*: Tiresshould berotated every
5,000 miles(8,000 km).
Tires*: Checkthepressure withagauge often
and always priortolong distance trips.If
necessary ,adjust thepressure inall tires,
including thespare, tothe pressure specified.
Check carefully fordamage, cutsorexcessive
wear.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS)
transmitter components: ReplacetheTPMS
transmitter grommetseal,valve coreandcap
when thetires arereplaced duetowear orage.
Wheel alignment andbalance: Ifthe vehicle
should pulltoeither sidewhile driving ona
straight andlevel road, orifyou detect uneven or
abnormal tirewear, theremaybeaneed for
wheel alignment.
If the steering wheelorseat vibrates atnormal
highway speeds,wheelbalancing maybe
needed. For
additional information regardingtires,refer
to ªImportant TireSafety Informationº (US)or
ªTire Safety Informationº (Canada)inthe War-
ranty Information Booklet.
Windshield: Cleanthewindshield onaregular
basis. Check thewindshield atleast every six

Tire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS)
GUID-D6 EF18B1-2442 -473D-A573-60D459 B74FC7
This vehicle isequipped withtheTire Pressure
Monitoring System(TPMS).It monitors tire
pressure ofall tires except thespare. When
the low tirepressure warninglightislit, and the
CHECK TIREPRES (pressure) warningmes-
sage isdisplayed inthe vehicle information
display ,one ormore ofyour tires issignificantly
under-inflated.
The TPMS willactivate onlywhen thevehicle is
driven atspeeds above16MPH (25km/h) .
Also, thissystem maynotdetect asudden drop
in tire pressure (forexample aflat tire while
driving) .
For more details, seeªLow tirepressure warning
lightº (P.2-15) ,ªTire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)º (P.5-3) andªTire Pressure Mon-
itoring System (TPMS)º (P.6-3) .
Tire inflation pressure
GUID-C576 45B5-E413-4FCA-B110 -F118428A3D6F
Check thepressure ofthe tires (including
the spare) oftenandalways priortolong
distance trips.Therecommended tire
pressure specifications areshown onthe
Tire and Loading Information labelunder
the ªCold TirePressureº heading.TheTire and
Loading Information labelisaffixed to
the driver sidecenter pillar.Tirepressures
should bechecked regularlybecause:
.
Most tiresnaturally loseairover time.
.
Tires canlose airsuddenly whendriven
over potholes orother objects orifthe
vehicle strikesacurb while parking.
The tirepressures shouldbechecked
when thetires arecold. Thetires are
considered COLDafterthevehicle has
been parked for3or more hours, ordriven
less than 1mile (1.6km)atmoderate
speeds.
Incorrect tirepressure, includingun-
der inflation, mayadversely affecttire
life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
.
Improperly inflatedtirescanfail
suddenly andcause anaccident.
.
The Gross Vehicle Weight rating
(GVWR) islocated onthe F.M .V.
S.S./C .M.V.S.S. certification la-
bel. The vehicle weightcapacity
is indicated onthe Tire and Loading
Information label.Do
not load yourvehicle beyond
this capacity. Overloading your
vehicle mayresult inreduced
tire life, unsafe operating condi-
tions duetopremature tirefail-
ure, orunfavorable handling
characteristic sand could also
lead toaserious accident. Load-
ing beyond thespecified capa-
city may also result infailure of
other vehicle components.
.
Before takingalong trip,or
whenever youheavily loadyour
vehicle, useatire pressure
gauge toensure thatthetire
pressures areatthe specified
level.

Checking thetire pressure
GUID-EAF7 4098-BED3 -48BE-BFDE-9B3D9F2 41441
1. Remove thevalve stemcapfrom the
tire.
2.
Press thepressure gaugesquarely onto
the valve stem. Donot press toohard or
force thevalve stemsideways, orair will
escape. Ifthe hissing soundofair
escaping fromthetire isheard while
checking thepressure, reposition the
gauge toeliminate thisleakage.
3.
Remove thegauge.
4.
Read thetirepressure onthe gauge
stem andcompare itto the specifica- tion
shown onthe Tire andLoading
Information label.
5.
Add airtothe tireasneeded. Iftoo
much airisadded, pressthecore ofthe
valve stembriefly withthetipofthe

check thepressure andadd orrelease
air asneeded.
6.
Install thevalve stemcap.
