specified by NISSAN could affect the

follows.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM

(TPMS) (if equipped)

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

monitors tire pressure of all tires except the

spare. When the low tire pressure warning light

is lit, one or more of your tires is significantly

under-inflated. If the vehicle is being driven

with low tire pressure, the TPMS will activate

and warn you of it by the low tire pressure

warning light (in the meter panel). This system

will activate only when the vehicle is driven at

speeds above 25 km/h (16 MPH).

WARNING:

If the low tire pressure warning light

illuminates while driving, avoid sudden

steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,

reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to

a safe location and stop the vehicle as

soon as possible. Driving with under-

inflated tires may permanently damage

the tires and increase the likelihood of

tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could

occur and may lead to an accident and

could result in serious personal injury.

Check the tire pressure for all four tires.

Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-

mended COLD tire pressure shown on the

tire placard to turn the low tire pressure

warning light off. If the light still illumi-

nates while driving after adjusting the

tire pressure, a tire may be flat or the

TPMS may be malfunctioning. If you have

a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as

soon as possible. If no tire is flat and all

tires are properly inflated, have the ve-

hicle checked by a NISSAN dealer.

The hazard indicator flasher switch operates

regardless of the ignition switch position ex-

cept when the battery is discharged.

The hazard indicator flasher is used to warn

other drivers when you have to stop or park

under emergency conditions.

When the hazard indicator flasher switch is

pushed, all turn signal lights will flash. To turn

off the hazard indicator flasher, push the

hazard indicator flasher switch again.

When an impact that could activate the supple-

mental air bags is detected, the hazard warn-

ing flasher lights blink automatically. If the

hazard warning flasher switch is pushed, the

hazard warning flashers will turn off.

For more details, see “Low tire pressure warn-

ing light” (P.2-15) and “Tire Pressure Monitoring

System (TPMS)” (P.5-9).

STOPPING VEHICLE

WARNING:

Be sure to apply the parking brake firmly.

Be sure to move the shift lever to the “P”

(Park) position (Continuously Variable

Transmission (CVT)/Dual Clutch Trans-

mission (DCT) model) or the shift lever to

the “R” (Reverse) position (Manual Trans-

mission model).

Never change tires when the vehicle is on

slope, ice or slippery area. This is

WARNING:

Since the spare tire is not equipped with

the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted

or a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will flash for approximately 1

minute. The light will remain on after the

hazardous.

Do not turn the hazard warning flasher

switch to off until you can make sure that it

is safe to do so. Also, the hazard flasher

warning may not blink automatically de-

pending on the force of impact.

Never change tires when the oncoming

traffic is close to your vehicle. Call for

professional road assistance.

1. Safely move the vehicle off the road away

from traffic.

CAUTION:

When removing the jack, be careful that your

WARNING:

Never use your hands to remove the wheel

To remove the wheel cover, use the jack rod

as illustrated.

Apply cloth

between the wheel and jack rod

to prevent damaging the wheel and wheel

cover.

Never allow passengers to remain in the

vehicle while the tire is off the ground.

WARNING:

Be sure to read and follow the instruc-

tions in this section.

Be sure to read the caution label attached

to the jack body before using.

1. Place the jack directly under the jack-up

point as illustrated so that the top of the

jack contacts the vehicle at the jack-up

point.

SUPPORTED BY A JACK.

Never use a jack which is not provided

with your vehicle.

The jack, which is provided with your

vehicle, is designed only to lift your

vehicle during a tire change. Do not use

the jack provided with your vehicle on

other vehicles.

Never jack up the vehicle at a location

other than the jack-up point that is

specified.

6. To lift the vehicle, securely hold the jack

lever and rod with both hands and turn the

jack lever.

The T-type spare tire is designed for

emergency use only.

For models equipped with Tire Pressure

Monitoring System (TPMS)

1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface

between the wheel and hub.

2. Carefully put the spare tire on and tighten

the wheel nuts with your fingers. Check

that all the wheel nuts contact the wheel

surface horizontally.

After adjusting the tire pressure, the TPMS

must be reset (model with TPMS reset

function). See “Tire Pressure Monitoring

System (TPMS)” (P.5-9) for details about

the resetting procedure.

After adjusting tire pressure to the COLD

tire pressure, the display of the tire pres-

sures (if equipped in the vehicle information

display) may show higher pressure than

the COLD tire pressure after the vehicle has

been driven more than 1.6 km (1 mile). This is

because the tire pressurizes as the tire

temperature rises. This does not indicate a

system malfunction.

Removing tire

1. Remove the wheel nuts.

2. Remove the damaged tire.

1. Securely store the damaged tire, jack and

tools used in the storage area in the

reverse order of removal. (See “Preparing

tools and spare tire” (P.6-3).)

2. Replace the luggage floorboards.

3. Close the back door.

WARNING:

Never use wheel nuts which are not

provided with your vehicle. Incorrect

wheel nuts or improperly tightened

wheel nuts may cause the wheel to

become loose or come off. This could

cause an accident.

Never use oil or grease on the wheel

studs or nuts. This may cause the wheel

nuts to become loose.

WARNING:

Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle

has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles)

(also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).

NOTE:

When stowing the jack and tools, bundle and

fasten them using the band included with the

tool bag, before storing them. Otherwise the

tools may contact each other and produce

noise.

WARNING:

Incorrect jump starting can lead to a

battery explosion. The battery explosion

may result in severe injury or death. It

may also result in damage to the vehicle.

Be sure to follow the instructions in this

section.

Explosive hydrogen gas is always present

in the vicinity of the battery. Keep all

sparks and flames away from the battery.

Always wear suitable eye protection and

remove rings, bracelets, and any other

jewelry whenever working on or near a

battery.

Never lean over the battery while jump

starting.

Never allow battery fluid to come into

contact with eyes, skin, clothes or the

vehicle’s painted surfaces. Battery fluid is

a corrosive sulfuric acid which can cause

severe burns. If the fluid comes into

contact with anything, immediately flush

the contacted area with plenty of water.

Keep the battery out of the reach of

children.

The booster battery must be rated at 12

volts. Use of an incorrectly rated battery

will damage your vehicle.

Never attempt to jump start a frozen

battery. It could explode and cause ser-

ious injury.
