WARNING ● Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assistance of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left alone. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly become high enough to ca[...]

WARNING ● The exhaust gas and the exhaust sys- tem are very hot.

They may ignite and cause a fire. CAUTION ● Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded ga[...]

the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordi[...]

● Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Do not reduce the tire pressure after driving because the tire pressure rises after driving. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may c[...]

TIRE LABELING Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires. This information iden- tifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also pro- vides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of [...]

䊊 2 TIN (Tire Identification Number) for a new tire (example: DO T XX XX XXX XXXX) 1. DO T : Abbreviation for the “Depart- ment Of T ransportation” . The symbol can be placed above, below or to the left or right of the Tire Identification Number. 2. T wo-digit code: Manufacturer’s identification mark. 3. T wo-digit code: Tire size. 4. Three[...]

TIRE CHAINS Use of tire chains may be prohibited according to location. Check the local laws before installing tire chains. When installing tire chains, make sure they are the proper size for the tires on your vehicle and are installed according to the chain manufacturer’s suggestions. Use only SAE class “S” chains. Class “S” chains are u[...]

Wheel nut tightening torque: 131 ft-lb (177 N·m) The wheel nuts must be kept tight- ened to specifications at all times. It is recommended that wheel nuts be tightened to specification at each tire rotation interval. Because the tire pressures are different between the front and rear tires, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) must be reset [...]

Tire wear and damage 1. W ear indicator 2. Location mark WARNING ● Tires should be periodically in- spected for wear, cracking, bulg- ing or objects caught in the tread. If excessive wear, cracks, bulging or deep cuts are found, the tire(s) should be replaced. ● The original tires have built-in tread wear indicators. When the wear indicators ar[...]

● If the wheels are changed for any reason, always replace with wheels which have the same off-set dimension. Wheels of a different off-set could cause premature tire wear, degrade vehicle handling char- acteristic s, affect the VDC system and/or interference with the brake discs. Such interference can lead to decreased brak - ing efficiency and/[...]

roads, have a NISSAN dealer correct the condition. Failure to correct the condition is misuse of the vehicle, for which NISSAN is not responsible. Incorrect ignition timing may result in spark knock, after-run and/or overheating, which may cause excessive fuel consumption or engine damage. If any of the above symptoms are en- countered, have your v[...]

Oil viscosity The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes with temperature. Because of this, it is important to select the engine oil viscosity based on the temperatures at which the vehicle will be oper- ated before the next oil change.
