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 (if so equipped) tire 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 maycause a malfunction of the tire pressure sensors. RUN-FLAT TIRES (if so equipped) Run-flat tires are those tires that can be used temporarily if they are punctured. After driving to a safe location, replace the punctured run-flat tire, following the instructions later in "Changing a flat tire". For additional information, see "Wheels and tires" in the "8. Maintenance and do-ityourself" section. Also, see the tire safety information in the INFINITI Warranty Information Booklet. Drive safely at reduced speeds. Avoid hard cornering or braking, which may cause you to lose control of the vehicle. Do not tow a trailer when a run-flat tire (if so equipped) is flat. CAUTION Never install tire chains on a punctured run-flat tire, as this could damage your vehicle. Avoid driving over any projection or pothole, as the clearance between the vehicle and the ground is smaller than normal. Do not enter an automated car wash with a punctured run-flat tire. Have the punctured tire replaced by your INFINITI dealer as soon as possible, as the tire's performance capability is reduced. WARNING Although you can continue driving with a punctured run-flat tire, remember that vehicle handling stability is reduced, which could lead to an accident and personal 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. In case of emergency 6-3

equipped) tire 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

Contact your INFINITI dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or sys-
tem resetting.

Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.

sensors.
RUN-FLAT TIRES (if so equipped)

used temporarily if they are punctured.
After driving to a safe location, replace the
punctured run-flat tire, following the in-
structions later in “Changing a flat tire”.

and tires” in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-
yourself” section. Also, see the tire safety
information in the INFINITI Warranty Infor-
mation Booklet.
WARNING
O
Although you can continue driving with a
punctured run-flat tire, remember that
vehicle handling stability is reduced,
which could lead to an accident and per-
sonal 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
Drive safely at reduced speeds. Avoid
hard cornering or braking, which may
cause you to lose control of the vehicle.
O
Do not tow a trailer when a run-flat tire (if
so equipped) is flat.
CAUTION
O
Never install tire chains on a punctured
run-flat tire, as this could damage your
vehicle.
O
Avoid driving over any projection or pot-
hole, as the clearance between the ve-
hicle and the ground is smaller than nor-
mal.
O
Do not enter an automated car wash with
a punctured run-flat tire.
O
Have the punctured tire replaced by your
INFINITI dealer as soon as possible, as
the tire’s performance capability is re-
duced.
