TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A TIRE LOW PRESSURE VISIT DEALER
w arning message will appear in the vehicle
information display
1 and the low tire
pressure warning light 2 will illuminate
when one or more tires are low in pressure
and air is needed.



• The tir

e pressures should be checked when
the tires are cold. The tires are considered
cold af ter the vehicle has been parked for
3 hours or more or driven less than 1 mi (1.6
km) at moderate speeds.
Af ter tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h). The TIRE LOW
PRESSURE VISIT DEALER warning message and low tire
pressure warning light
2 will extinguish.
When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 1 minute and then
remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a Nissan dealer for this service.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower
the temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light
2 to illuminate. If
the warning light 2 illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.



•


Check the tir

e pressure of ten and always prior to long distance trips.
NISSAN recommends refilling with nitrogen for maximum tire performance. If nitrogen is not available, compressed air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to the “Technical and consumer information (section 9)” of 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)”, the “Starting and driving
