cally turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must
be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25
km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the
low tire pressure warning light. Use a tire
pressure gauge to check the tire pressure.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning is
active as long as the low tire pressure
warning light remains illuminated.

information display” (P.2-21), “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5)

If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is pushed ON. The light will remain
on after the 1 minute. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. The CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE warning does not appear if
the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates to indicate a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).
WARNING
. If the light does not illuminate with the
ignition switch pushed ON, have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
. If the 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 in-
crease 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 recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If the
light still illuminates 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,
it is recommended you consult an
INFINITI retailer.
. 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
1 minute. Have your tires replaced and/
or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for these services.
. Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
. The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
. If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
. Be sure to install the specified size of
