2016 NISSAN QASHQAI ECO mode

WARNING
•After rotating the tyres, adjust the tyre pres-
sure and perform a TPMS temperature cali-
bration.
•Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle
has been driven for the first 1,000 km (600
miles) (also in cases of a flat tyre, etc.).
•Do not include the temporary-use spare tyre
in the tyre rotation.
•Incorrect tyre selection, fitting, care or main-
tenance can affect vehicle safety with risk of
accident and injury. If in doubt, consult a
NISSAN dealer or the tyre manufacturer.
TYRE WEAR AND DAMAGE
Tyres should be periodically inspected for wear,
cracking, bulging or objects caught in the tread. If
excessive wear, cracks, bulging or deep cuts are
found, the tyre should be replaced.The original tyres have a built-in tread wear indica-
tor
j1 . When the wear indicator is visible, the tyre
should be replaced.
The wear indicator locations are indicated by the
location marks
j2.
TYRE AGE
Remember tyre age. Never use a tyre over six years
old, regardless of whether they have been used or
not.
Tyres degrade with age as well as the use they are
subjected to. Have the tyres checked and balanced
frequently by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Report all accidents where the tyre is knocked
even if it is minor.
CHANGING TYRES AND WHEELS
WARNING
Do not install a deformed wheel or tyre even if it
has been repaired. Such wheels or tyres could
have structural damage and could fail without
warning.
When replacing a tyre, use the same size, speed
rating and load carrying capacity as originally
equipped. Recommended types and sizes are men-
tioned in “Wheels and Tyres” in the “9. Technical
information” section.
The use of tyres other than those recommended or
the mixed use of tyres of different brands, construc-
tion (bias, bias-belted or radial), or tread patterns
can adversely affect the ride, braking, handling,ground clearance, body-to-tyre clearance, snow
chain clearance, speedometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height.
WARNING
Some of these effects may lead to accidents and
could result in serious personal injury.
If the wheels are changed for any reason, always
replace with wheels which have the same offset
dimension. Wheels of a different offset could cause
early tyre wear, possibly degraded vehicle handling
characteristics and/or interference with the brake
discs. Such interference can lead to decreased
braking efficiency and/or early brake pad wear.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD) MODELS
CAUTION
•Always use tyres of the same size, brand, con-
struction (bias, bias-belted or radial), and
tread pattern on all four wheels. Failure to do
so may result in a circumference difference
between tyres on the front and rear axles
which will cause excessive tyre wear and may
damage the transmission, transfer case and
differential gears.
•ONLY use spare tyres specified for the four
wheel drive (4WD) models.SDI1663Z
