ened to specifications at all times. It
is recommended that wheel nuts be
tightened to specification at each
tire rotation interval.

WARNING

After rotating the tires, check and

adjust the tire pressure.

Retighten the wheel nuts when

the vehicle has been driven for
600 miles (1,000 km) (also in
cases of a flat tire, etc.).

Do not include the spare tire in

the tire rotation.

Tire wear and damage

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 are visible, the
tire(s) should be replaced.

Tires degrade with age and use.

Have tires, including the spare,
over 6 years old checked by a
qualified

technician

because

some tire damage may not be ob-
vious. Replace the tires as neces-
sary to prevent tire failure and
possible personal injury.

Improper service of the spare tire

may result in serious personal in-
jury. If it is necessary to repair the
spare tire, contact a NISSAN
dealer.

For additional information re-

garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or

mation Booklet.
