Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts and cables as well as their connectors.High-voltage cables are orange. Touching, disassem-bling, removing or replacing those parts or cables cancause severe burns or electric shock that may result inserious injury or death.

To avoid personal injury, do not touch high-voltagewiring, connectors or high-voltage parts (inverter unit,lithium-ion battery etc.).

If exposed electric wires are visible inside or outside ofyour vehicle, an electric shock may occur. Never touchthe electric wires.

If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor whiledriving, stop the vehicle in a safe location and check thefloor.

If you discover a leak or damage to the lithium-ionbattery, contact a NISSAN dealer immediately.

Never touch fluid leaks inside or outside the vehicle. Theleak may be lithium manganate from the lithium-ionbattery. If it contacts your skin or eyes, wash it offimmediately with a large amount of water or if possible,boric acid solution. Get immediate medical attention tohelp avoid serious injury.

If a fire occurs in the EV vehicle, leave the vehicle assoon as possible. Never use a fire extinguisher that isnot meant for use on electric fires. Using even a smallamount of water may also be dangerous.

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRE LIMITED WARRANTIES 15

Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail due toimproper maintenance or service factors. This couldcreate a risk of property damage and serious or fatalinjury. Disregarding any of the safety precautions andinstructions contained in this manual may result in tirefailure or explosion causing serious personal injury ordeath. For your safety, comply with the following:

TIRE INFLATIONKeep tires inflated to the pressures recommended onthe tire data placard. (See your OWNER’S MANUAL forlocation.) These inflation pressures must be maintainedas a minimum. However, do not exceed the maximumpressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.

CHECK INFLATION PRESSURES ON ALL YOURTIRES, INCLUDING THE SPARE, WHEN TIRES ARECOLD, AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH BEFORE DRIV-ING.

Failure to maintain correct inflation may result in im-proper vehicle handling and may cause rapid and ir-regular tire wear, sudden tire destruction, loss of vehiclecontrol and serious personal injury. Therefore, inflationpressures should be checked at least once a month andalways prior to long distance trips.

Pressures should be checked when tires are cold. Thetires are cold when your vehicle has been driven lessthan a mile at moderate speed after being stopped forthree or more hours.

CHECKING PRESSURE WHEN TIRESARE HOTIf you must add air when your tires are hot, add fourpounds per square inch (psi) (28 kPa) above the rec-ommended cold air pressure. Recheck the inflationpressure when the tire is cold.

For Example Only:

Gauge reading of hot tire: 32 psiIf recommended pressure is: 30 psiDesired gauge reading of hot tire 30 + 4 psi = 34 psi

Check cold pressures as soon as possible, at least bythe next day. Never “bleed” air from hot tires as your tirewill be underinflated. Use an accurate tire gauge tocheck pressures. Never allow children to air up tires.

DRIVING ON ANY TIRE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THECORRECT INFLATION PRESSURE IS DANGEROUS.For replacement tires, the correct inflation pressure will beprovided by your tire dealer. If not, refer to the vehicle decal.

Underinflation produces extreme flexing of the sidewallsand builds up heat which may result in sudden tire de-struction and serious personal injury. Overinflating cancause the tire to be more susceptible to impact damage.

LOAD LIMITSDO NOT OVERLOAD. DRIVING ON ANY OVER-LOADED TIRE IS DANGEROUS. Never load yourtires beyond the load carrying limits molded into thesidewall of the tires or the maximum vehicle load limit asshown on the vehicle tire data placard, whichever isless. Overloading causes heat to build up which canlead to sudden tire failure and serious personal injury.

SPEED LIMITS AND SPEED RATEDTIRESHIGH SPEED DRIVING CAN BE DANGEROUS.Never operate your vehicle in excess of lawful speeds orthe maximum speeds justified by the driving conditions.Excessive speeds or racing can cause heat buildup in atire leading to possible failure and serious personalinjury.

Correct inflation pressure is especially impor-tant. However, at high speeds, even with the correctinflation pressure, a road hazard, for example, is moredifficult to avoid and if contact is made, there is a greaterchance of causing tire damage than at the lower speed.Moreover, driving at high speed reduces the reactiontime available to avoid accidents and bring your vehicleto a safe stop. If you see any damage to a tire or wheel,replace it with your spare tire and see your tire dealer atonce.

Tire speed ratings do not imply that a vehicle can besafely driven at the maximum speed for which the tire israted. In addition, some damages or improper repairsmay cause a speed-rated tire to lose its speed rating.Exceeding the tire’s maximum speed rating will causethe tire to build up excessive heat which can cause tiredamage that could result in sudden tire destruction andrapid air loss. Failure to control a vehicle with sudden airloss can lead to an accident. In any case, you should notexceed reasonable speeds as indicated by the legallimits and driving conditions.

16 IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1

SPEED SYMBOLS - are shown on the sidewall ofsome tires. The following table shows the maximumspeed corresponding to the symbol.

SPEED RATINGS†Speed Speed MaximumRating mph km/Hr

M 81 130N 87 140P 93 150Q 99 160R 106 170S 112 180T 118 190H 130 210V* 149 240Z** 149 240

*Some V (or VR) rated tires may have a speedcapacity of greater than 149 mph (240 km/h).Consult your tire manufacturer for maximum speedratings if your vehicle capability exceeds this speed.

**Z (or ZR) rated tires are designed for use oncars with maximum speed capabilities in excessof 149 mph (240 km/h). Consult your tire manufac-turer for maximum speed capabilities.

†Although a tire may be speed rated, we do not endorsethe operation of any vehicle in an unsafe or unlawfulmanner. Speed ratings are based on laboratory testswhich relate to performance on the road, but are notapplicable if tires are underinflated, overloaded, wornout, damaged, altered, improperly repaired, or re-

treaded. Furthermore, tire speed ratings do not implythat vehicles can be safely driven at the maximumspeed for which the tire is rated, particularly underadverse road and weather conditions or if the vehiclehas unusual characteristics. Most highway passengertires that do not have a speed symbol in the sidewallhave a maximum speed rating of 105 mph. Light truckhighway tires that do not have a speed symbol on thesidewall of the tire have a maximum speed of 87 mph.Some light truck tires may have higher maximumspeeds; consult your tire dealer. The speed and otherratings of retreaded tires are assigned by the retreaderand voids the original manufacturer’s ratings.

IMPORTANT: In order to maintain the speed capabilityof the vehicle, replacement tires must have speed rat-ings equal to or higher than those fitted as originalequipment (as indicated on the vehicle placard orOWNER’S MANUAL). If tires with lower speed ratingsare fitted, the speed capability of the vehicle will belowered to the maximum speed capability of the re-placement tire as indicated on the above table.

Remember...High speed driving can be dangerous andmay be damaging to your tires.

And...When driving at highway speeds, correct inflationpressure is especially important.

Contact the manufacturer of your tires for their positionand assistance on the repair of speed-rated tires. Whenyou are replacing tires that have a speed rating, youmust replace with tires of the same or higher speedrating if the speed capability of the vehicle is to bemaintained.

VISUAL INSPECTIONINSPECT YOUR TIRES. DO NOT DRIVE ON ADAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL. Check your tires fre-quently for scrapes, bulges, separations, cuts, snags,cracks, penetrations or excessive localized wear fromhard braking. Also check for abnormal tire wear, particu-larly on the edges of the tire tread which may be causedby misalignment or underinflation. Impacts can damagethe inner portion of the tire without being visible on theoutside. If damage can be seen on the tires or wheels, orif you suspect that possible impact damage may haveoccurred, replace with spare at once and have your tirestore or dealer inspect your tires immediately. Use of adamaged tire could result in tire destruction. Wheninspecting your tires, including the spare, check your airpressures. If your pressure check indicates that one ofyour tires has lost pressure of two pounds or more, lookfor signs of penetrations, valve leakage, or wheel dam-age that may account for the air loss.

All tires will wear out faster when subjected to highspeeds as well as hard cornering, rapid starts, suddenstops, frequent driving on roads which are in poorcondition, and off-road use. Roads with holes and rocksor other objects can damage tires and cause misalign-ment of your vehicle. When you drive on such roads,drive on them carefully and slowly, and before drivingagain at normal or highway speeds, examine your tiresfor any damage, such as cuts, bulges, penetrations,unusual wear patterns, etc.

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS): Tirescontain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in thegrooves of the tire tread which show up when only2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread is remaining.


IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1 17

At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tiresworn beyond this stage are dangerous.

* Provided by and published at the request of the tiremanufacturers/warrantors.

HAZARDSObjects in the road that threaten a tire should be safelyavoided. These objects are potholes, glass, metal,rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contactshould prompt a thorough tire inspection.

You may not always recall hitting an object that candamage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicleexperiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance ornoise and/or you suspect that possible damage to thetires or vehicle has occurred, DO NOT JAM OR LOCKYOUR BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drivewith caution until you can safely pull off the road. Stopand inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated ordamaged, deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly andreplace it with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause,have the vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tiredealer to have the vehicle inspected.

REPAIRING, MOUNTING ANDDEMOUNTING OF TIRESDo not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tireyourself. Tire changing can be dangerous and must bedone by professionally trained persons using propertools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manu-facturers Association (RMA). Follow these mountingrecommendations. Your tires should be mounted onwheels of correct size and type and which are in good,

clean condition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels maycause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be freefrom foreign materials. Have your dealer check thewheels before mounting new tires. Mismatchedtires and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mis-matched tires and rims can result in dangerous tirefailure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on thewrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim -scrap it. It may be damaged internally (which is notexternally visible) by being dangerously stretched andcould fail on the highway.

Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires aremounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safetyhumps or ledges.

Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube orinject sealant as a permanent substitute for a properrepair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.

Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guardagainst leakage.

REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIREDEALER AT ONCE. Some tire manufacturers do notwarrant any inspection or repair process. The repair isentirely the responsibility of the repairer. Punctures inthe tread of a passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 ofan inch (6 mm) in diameter can usually be repaired byfollowing the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association(RMA) Passenger and Light Truck Repair procedures.Contact the manufacturer of your tires for its positionand assistance as to the acceptable location for a

proper repair and the repair of speed rated tires. Do notuse plug repairs. They may cause further damageto the tire. They are not always air tight and theplug may fail. Do not exceed posted speed limits onany repaired tire. Certain tire manufacturers speed rat-ings are voided if the tire is repaired.

Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structuraldamage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to beremoved from service.

If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds 1/4inch (6 mm), the tire must be replaced. If any tire hassustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internallyby a tire dealer for possible damage that may haveoccurred.

Improper mounting and inflation procedures can causean explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only speciallytrained persons should perform these tasks. Contactyour tire store or dealer for assistance.

CAUTION - Never, under any circumstance, in-troduce a flammable substance into a tire.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCINGWheel alignment and balancing are important for safetyand maximum mileage from your tires. Check how yourtires are wearing at least once a month. If your tires arewearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tirewearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detectexcessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of align-ment or balance. These conditions not only shorten thelife of your tires, but adversely affect the handling char-

(Continued on next page)*Provided by and published at the request of the tire manufacturers/warrantors.


acteristics of your vehicle which could be dangerous. Ifyou detect irregular wear or vibration, have your align-ment and balance checked immediately. Tires whichhave been run underinflated will show more wear on theshoulders than in the center of the tread.

HARD BRAKINGYou must inspect your tires after any hard braking cir-cumstances or after tires have slid on the pavement.This can cause a flat spot in a section of the tire tread.

TIRE SPINNINGNever spin your tires above a speedometer reading of35 mph (55 km/h) if your vehicle becomes stuck. Thecentrifugal force generated by the free spinningtire/wheel assembly may cause a sudden tire explosion,resulting in vehicle damage and/or serious personalinjury or death. Never allow anyone to stand near orbehind a tire spinning at high speed while attempting topush a vehicle that is stuck. When in mud, sand, snow,ice or other slippery conditions, do not indulge in exces-sive wheel spin. In such conditions, with automatictransmission vehicles, by accelerating the engine ex-cessively, it is possible to spin one of the drive tiresbeyond its speed capability. This is also true whenbalancing a drive tire/wheel assembly using the engineof the vehicle to spin the wheel.

TIRE TREADTires must be replaced when the depth of the treadreaches 2/32 inch (1.6 mm). Tires are manufacturedwith tread wear indicators molded into the tire grooveswhich indicate tread wearout. As tires approximate 2/32inch (1.6 mm) wearout, the tread gauge becomes thin-

ner and more vulnerable to the effects of road hazards.Also, worn tires are more subject to hydroplaning, whichcan cause loss of control. Therefore, visual tire inspec-tion becomes more crucial as the tires wear out.

WORN TIRESNever drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced bytrained personnel when 2/32nds of an inch tread depthremains, as indicated by the tread wear indicatorsmolded into the tread grooves. In most states, it is illegalto drive with less than 2/32nds of an inch of treadremaining.

TIRE MIXINGFor best performance select tires similar in size andload rating to the original equipment tires. It is recom-mended that the same size and type of tire be used onall four wheel positions. In certain tires, casing plymaterial and ply construction may vary as indicated onthe sidewall of the tire. When changing or replacingtires, it is preferred that all four tires are the sameconstruction type (i.e., High Performance, All Season,Mud & Snow) and construction (Radial or Bias Ply).Before mixing tires of different types on a vehicle in anyconfiguration, be sure to check the vehicle OWNER’SMANUAL for its recommendations.

Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturer’s Associa-tion (RMA) definition of mud and snow tires are markedM/S, M+S, M&S. On such tires, this designation ismolded into the sidewall. Tires without this notation arenot recommended for mud and/or snow driving.

If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tiresequivalent in size and load rating to the original equip-ment tires. Always fit performance snow tires in sets of

four (4) for optimum mud & snow traction and mainte-nance of vehicle handling characteristics. If you do not,it may adversely affect the safety and handling of yourvehicle. It is also important to check the vehicle OWN-ER’S MANUAL before mixing or matching tires on4-wheel drive vehicles as this may require special pre-cautions.

Please refer to your OWNER’S MANUAL for moreinformation on tire replacement precautions.

TIRE ROTATIONTires on your Nissan vehicle should be rotated every7,500 miles or as irregular wear develops. If irregularwear becomes apparent or if the wear rate on the tires isperceptibly uneven, the tires should be rotated in such away to alleviate the problem. Check your vehicle for anymechanical problems and correct if necessary. Anyrotation pattern or procedure may be followed includingthose indicated in the OWNER’S MANUAL. Some tireshave arrows on the sidewall showing the direction inwhich the tire should turn. When rotating this type oftire, care must be taken to maintain the proper turningdirection as indicated by the arrows. Some vehicleshave different tire sizes specified for front and rearaxles. Tires on these vehicles should not be rotated sideto side (unless they are non-directional). Where a tem-porary type spare tire is available, it should not beincluded in the tire rotation schedule. Such tires areintended for temporary use only. Whenever only twotires are replaced, the new tires should be put on therear axle of vehicles equipped with the same size tire onall four wheel positions.


IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1 19

TIRE ALTERATIONSDo not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterationsmay prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-age, which can result in an accident. Tires which be-come unserviceable due to alterations such as truing,whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liquids,may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult yourtire warranty.

TIRE STORAGEAll tires should be stored in a cool dry place indoors sothat there is no danger of water collecting inside them.

When tires are stored they should be stored in a coolplace away from sources of heat and ozone such as hotpipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces onwhich tires are stored are clean and free from grease,gasoline or other substances which could deterioratethe rubber. (Tires exposed to these materials duringstorage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)

To Avoid Damage to your Tires andPossible Accident:● Check tire pressure at least once a monthwhen tires are cold and before long trips.● Do not underinflate/overinflate.● Do not overload.● Drive at moderate speeds, observe legal limits.● Avoid driving over potholes, obstacles, curbsor edges of pavement.● Avoid excessive wheel spinning.● If you see any damage to a tire, replace withspare and see the tire manufacturer’s dealer oryour Nissan dealership.

WHAT YOU MUST DOIn order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver thewarranted 12V battery or the vehicle in which the 12Vbattery is installed to an authorized Nissan LEAF certi-fied dealer in the U.S. or Canada at your expense, withproof of purchase (parts invoice or service repair orderfrom an authorized Nissan dealer).

If the “pro-rata adjustment”applies, you must pay for theportion of the 84 month warrantable life that you actuallyused. The amount you pay is computed in two steps.First, the customer pay percentage is determined fromthe chart shown below based upon the months of actual12V battery service.

Second, the current suggested retail price of the new12V battery is multiplied by the customer pay percent-age. For example, should the 12V battery fail after 40months of service you would pay 50% of the suggestedretail price of the new 12V battery.
