ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WITH
EASY-FILL TIRE ALERT
A Tire Pressure Low - Add Air warning
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.
When adding air to an under -inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy-Fill Tire Alert
provides visual and audible signals outside the vehicle to help you inflate the tire
to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the Easy-Fill Tire Alert system:
1. Move the shif t lever to the P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the hybrid system.
3. Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard
warning lights will start flashing.
4. When the designated tir e pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning flashers will stop flashing.
5. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
Af ter the tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph
(25 km/h). The Tire Pressure Low - Add Air warning message and low tire
pressure warning light
2 will extinguish.
In addition to the Tire Pressure Low - Add Air warning message, you can view
the individual tire’s pressure in the vehicle information display as well as the
recommended pressure, denoted by blue lettering, for each tire.
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 illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tir e pressure (including the spare tire) of ten and always prior to long
distance trips.

PUREDRIVE™ HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT AND
HYBRID AWARENESS
PUREDRIVE™ HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
This light wil l illuminate when the ignition switch is in the ON position and will
extinguish when the hybrid system is started.
The light will also illuminate when a malfunction occurs in the electric motor or
hybrid system.
When this light il luminates while driving, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe location and contact a Nissan dealer.
If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate that the
Li-ion battery charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.
HYBRID AWARENESS
Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your vehicle while it is on but the hybrid system is not running, the hybrid system will automatically
start, informing you that the vehicle is still on.
Do not stor e your Nissan Intelligent Key® within the detection range of the
vehicle. This may cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating
unwanted battery drain.
The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Activation of the electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver
input. A full battery display does not indicate that the vehicle should be in the
electric mode.
Please see your Owner’s Manual for important safety information, system limitations, and additional
operating and feature information.
