When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended COLD
tire pressure shown on the Tire and Load-
ing Information label. The low tire pressure
warning light does not automatically 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 appears
each time the power switch is placed in the ON
position as long as the low tire pressure warning
light remains illuminated.
For additional information, refer to “Vehicle infor-
mation display” in the “Instruments and controls”
section, “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” section and
“In case of emergency” section of this manual.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the power switch is placed
in the ON position. The light will remain on after
the 1 minute. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer. The CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE warning does not appear if the low
tire pressure warning light illuminates to indicate
a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, refer to “Vehicle infor-
mation display” in this section and “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “Starting and
driving” section of this manual.
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment manu-
facturer for the possible influences be-
fore use.
• If the light does not illuminate when
the power switch is placed in the ON
position, have the vehicle checked by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer as soon
as possible.
• 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 or
death. Check the tire pressure for all
four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to
the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation label to turn the low tire pres-
sure warning light OFF. If the light still
illuminates while driving after adjust-
ing 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 vehicle checked by a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
