Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and the brake
fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake warning light
and the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light illuminate, it may indicate the ABS is not func-
tioning properly. Have the brake system checked,
and if necessary repaired, by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop promptly. (See “Anti-lock Brak-
ing System (ABS) warning light” earlier in this sec-
tion.)
TPMS indicator light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
TPMS indicator light illuminates and then turns off.
This indicates that the low tyre pressure warning
system is operational.
This light illuminates or blinks if there is low tyre
pressure or, in case of a tyre pressure warning sys-
tem malfunction it will flash for 1 minute and then
stay illuminated.
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) moni-
tors the tyre pressure of all tyres except the spare.
WARNING
•
Visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
as soon as possible if the TPMS system is
malfunctioning.
•
If the TPMS indicator light illuminates while
driving:
– avoid sudden steering manoeuvres
– avoid abrupt braking
– reduce vehicle speed
– pull off the road to a safe location
– stop the vehicle as soon as possible
•
Driving with under-inflated tyres may perma-
nently damage the tyres and increase the like-
lihood of tyre failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur which may lead to an accident
and could result in serious personal injury.
•
Check the tyre pressure for all four tyres. Ad-
just the tyre pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure shown on the tyre plac-
ard to turn the TPMS indicator light “OFF”. In
case of a flat tyre, replace it with a spare tyre
as soon as possible. (See “Flat tyre” in the
“6. In case of emergency” section for chang-
ing a flat tyre.)
•
When a spare tyre is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, the TPMS will not function and the
TPMS indicator light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop as soon as possible to check
the TPMS system.
•
Replacing tyres with those not originally speci-
fied by NISSAN could affect the proper opera-
tion of the TPMS.
•
The Genuine NISSAN Emergency Tyre Repair
Sealant or equivalent can be used for tempo-
rarily repairing a tyre. Do not inject any other
tyre liquid or aerosol tyre sealant into the
tyres, as this may cause a malfunction of the
tyre pressure sensors. Visit a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop as soon as possible af-
ter using tyre repair sealant. (for models not
equipped with the emergency tyre puncture
repair kit).
•
NISSAN recommends using only Genuine
NISSAN Emergency Tyre Sealant provided
with your vehicle. Other tyre sealants may
damage the valve stem seal which can cause
the tyre to lose air pressure. Visit a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop as soon as pos-
sible after using tyre repair sealant (for mod-
els equipped with the emergency tyre punc-
ture repair kit).
CAUTION
•
The TPMS may not function properly when the
wheels are equipped with tyre chains or the
wheels are buried in snow.
•
Do not place metalised film or any metal parts
(antenna, etc.) on the windows. This may
cause poor reception of the signals from the
tyre pressure sensors, and the TPMS will not
function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may tempo-
rarily interfere with the operation of the TPMS
and cause the TPMS indicator light to illumi-
nate. Some examples are:
– Facilities or electric devices using similar
radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
