TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS) (for models with
run-flat tire only)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on 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 monitor-
ing system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated. Accord-
ingly, when the low tire pressure telltale il-
luminates, you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and inflate them
to the proper pressure. Driving on a signifi-
cantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-
inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s han-
dling and stopping ability.
If the vehicle is being driven with one or
more flat tires, the run-flat tire warning light
will illuminate continuously and a chime will
sound for 10 seconds. The chime will only
sound at the first indication of a flat tire and
the warning light will illuminate continu-
ously. When the Flat tire warning is acti-
vated, have the system reset and the tire
checked and replaced if necessary by an IN-
FINITI dealer. Even if the tire is inflated to
the specified COLD tire pressure, the
warning light will continue to illuminate un-
til the system is reset by an INFINITI dealer.
Your vehicle can be driven for a limited time
on a flat tire. See “Run-flat tires (if so
equipped)” in the “8. Maintenance and do-
it-yourself” section.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substi-
tute for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver’s responsibility to maintain cor-
rect tire pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger illumination
of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the telltale
will flash for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent ve-
hicle start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is il-
luminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as in-
tended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tires or wheels
on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue
to function properly.
Additional information:
O
The TPMS does not monitor the tire
pressure of the spare tire.
O
The TPMS will activate only when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h). Also, this system may not de-
tect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for
example a flat tire while driving).
O
The low tire pressure warning light does
not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the
vehicle must be driven at speeds above
16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS
and turn off the low tire pressure
warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge
to check the tire pressure.
