Tire rotation
Tire rotation
NISSAN recommends rotating the tires every 7,500 miles (12,000 km).
See “Flat tire” in the “In case of emergency” section of this manual for tire replacing procedures.
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque with a torque wrench.

The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to specifications at all times. It is recommended that wheel nuts be tightened to specification at each tire rotation interval.
● 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.
● For additional information regarding tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety Information” (US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in the Warranty Information Booklet.

Tire wear and damage
● Tires should be periodically inspected for wear, cracking, bulging 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 obvious.
Replace the tires as necessary to prevent tire failure and possible personal injury.
● Improper service of the spare tire may result in serious personal injury.
If it is necessary to repair the spare tire, contact a NISSAN dealer.
● For additional information regarding tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety Information” (US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in the Warranty Information Booklet.
