Nissan Murano: Flat tire / Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS). It monitors
tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
When the low tire pressure warning light is
lit, and the “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning appears in the vehicle information
display, one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. If equipped, the system
also displays pressure of all tires (except
the spare tire) on the display screen by
sending a signal from a sensor that is installed
in each wheel. If the vehicle is being
driven with low tire pressure, the TPMS will
activate and warn you of it by the low tire
pressure warning light. This system will activate
only when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h). For additional
information, refer to “Warning lights,
indicator lights and audible reminders” in
the “Instruments and controls” section and
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in
the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
WARNING
- Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use
a pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for
the possible influences before use.
- If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates
while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
reduce vehicle speed, pull off the roadto
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with underinflated
tiresmaypermanentlydamage
the tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur andmaylead 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 pressurewarning
light OFF. If the light still illuminates
while driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat or the TPMS
may be malfunctioning. If you have a
flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as
soon as possible. If no tire is flat and all
tires are properly inflated, have the vehicle
checked. it is recommended that
youvisit a NISSANdealer for this service.
- Whenreplacing a wheel withoutTPMS
such as the spare tire, the TPMS will
not function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for approximately
one minute. The light will remain
on after one minute. Have your
tires replaced and/or TPMS system
reset as soon as possible. It is recommendedthat
you visit a NISSANdealer
for these services.
- Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by NISSAN 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.
