Some devices and transmitters may tempo-
rarily interfere with the operation of the TPMS
and cause the TPMS indicator light to illumi-
nate. Some examples are:
Facilities or electric devices using similar
radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is
being used in or near the vehicle.
If a computer (or similar equipment) or a
DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
If devices which transmit electrical noise
are connected to the vehicle’s 12V power
supply.
When inflating the tyres and checking the tyre
pressure, never bend the valves.
Special aluminium valves are fitted to mount
the TPMS sensors on the wheels. The TPMS
sensor is fixed at the wheels by a nut. The nut
needs to be correctly fitted at a torque setting
of 7.5 ± 0.5 N•m. If the TPMS sensor is tight-
ened exceeding the limit, there is a possibility
the sensor grommet will be damaged. If the
sensor is tightened under the limit, there is a
possibility of causing an air leak.
Use Genuine NISSAN valve caps that comply
with the factory-fitted valve cap specifications.
Do not use metal valve caps.
Fit the valve caps properly. Without the valve
caps the valve and tyre pressure monitor sen-
sors could be damaged.
Do not damage the valves and sensors when
storing the wheels or fitting different tyres.
Replace the sensor grommet and washer dur-
ing a tyre change. Once they have been re-
moved, the sensor grommet and washer can-
not be reused and must be replaced. The
TPMS sensors can be used again.
Use caution when using tyre inflation equip-
ment with a rigid air supply tube, as leverage
applied by the long nozzle can damage the
valve stem.
