Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle's operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature, check the tire pressure for all four tires. You can also check the pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the display screen. The order of the tire pressure figures displayed on the screen does not correspond with the actual order of the tire position. See "Tire pressure information" in the "4. Display screen, heater, air conditioner and audio systems" section. For additional information, see "Low tire pressure warning light" in the "2. Instruments and controls" section, "Tire pressure monitoring system" in the "6. In case of emergency" section. 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. 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 you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as possible. (See "Flat tire" in the "6. In case of emergency" section for changing a flat tire.) Although you can continue driving with a punctured run-flat tire (if so equipped), remember that vehicle handling stability is reduced, which could lead to an accident andpersonal injury. Also, driving a long distance at high speeds may damage the tires. Do not drive at speeds above 55 MPH (88 km/h) and do not drive more than 50 miles (80 km) with a punctured run-flat tire (if so equipped). The actual distance the vehicle can be driven on a flat tire depends on outside temperature, vehicle load, road conditions and other factors. Do not tow a trailer when a run-flat tire (if so equipped) is flat. When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated, the TPMS will not function and the low tire pressure warning light will flash. Contact your INFINITI dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/or system resetting. Replacing tires with those not originally specified by INFINITI could affect the proper operation of the TPMS. Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire sealant into the tires, as this may cause a malfunction of the tire pressure sensors. 5-6 Starting and driving

O
Tire pressure rises and falls depending
on the heat caused by the vehicle’s op-
eration and the outside temperature.
Low outside temperature can lower the
temperature of the air inside the tire
which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If
the warning light illuminates in low am-
bient temperature, check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires.
O
You can also check the pressure of all
tires (except the spare tire) on the dis-
play screen. The order of the tire pres-
sure figures displayed on the screen
does not correspond with the actual or-
der of the tire position. See “Tire pres-
sure information” in the “4. Display
screen,
heater,
air
conditioner
and
audio systems” section.
For additional information, see “Low tire
pressure warning light” in the “2. Instru-
ments and controls” section, “Tire pres-
sure monitoring system” in the “6. In case
of emergency” section.
WARNING
O
If the low tire pressure warning light illu-
minates
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.
Serious
vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in serious per-
sonal 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 Informa-
tion label to turn the low tire pressure
warning light OFF. If you have a flat tire,
replace it with a spare tire as soon as
possible. (See “Flat tire” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section for changing
a flat tire.)
O
Although you can continue driving with a
punctured run-flat tire (if so equipped),
remember that vehicle handling stability
is reduced, which could lead to an acci-
dent andpersonal injury. Also, driving a
long
distance
at
high
speeds
may
damage the tires.
O
Do not drive at speeds above 55 MPH (88
km/h) and do not drive more than 50
miles (80 km) with a punctured run-flat
tire (if so equipped). The actual distance
the vehicle can be driven on a flat tire de-
pends on outside temperature, vehicle
load, road conditions and other factors.
O
Do not tow a trailer when a run-flat tire (if
so equipped) is flat.
O
When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be indi-
cated, the TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light will flash.
Contact your INFINITI dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or sys-
tem resetting.
O
Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
O
Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors.
