Nissan ARIYA 2023 Owners Manual

10.4.1. Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

This vehicle is equipped with the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It monitors tyre pressure of all tyres. When the low tyre pressure warning light is lit, and the [Low Tyre Pressure] warning message is displayed in the vehicle information display, one or more of your tyres is significantly under-inflated. If the vehicle is being driven with low tyre pressure, the TPMS will activate and warn you of it by the low tyre pressure warning light. This system will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 25 km/h (16 MPH). For more details, see

  • If the low tyre pressure warning light illuminates while driving, avoid sudden steering manoeuvres or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving with under-inflated tyres may permanently damage the tyres and increase the likelihood of tyre failure. Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could result in serious personal injury. Check the tyre pressure for all four tyres. Adjust the tyre pressure to the recommended COLD tyre pressure shown on the tyre placard to turn the low tyre pressure warning light OFF. If the light still illuminates while driving after adjusting the tyre pressure, a tyre may be flat. If you have a flat tyre, repair it with an emergency tyre puncture repair kit as soon as possible.

  • Replacing tyres with those not originally specified by NISSAN could affect the proper operation of the TPMS.

  • NISSAN recommends using only Genuine NISSAN Emergency Tyre Sealant provided with your vehicle. Other tyre sealants may damage the valve stem seal which can cause the tyre to lose air pressure. Visit a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer as soon as possible after using tyre repair sealant.

  • The TPMS may not function properly when the wheels are equipped with tyre chains or the wheels are buried in snow.

  • Do not place metalised film or any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows. This may cause poor reception of the signals from the tyre pressure sensors, and the TPMS will not function properly.

    Some devices and transmitters may temporarily interfere with the operation of the TPMS and cause the low tyre pressure warning light to illuminate. 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.

  • When inflating the tyres and checking the tyre pressure, never bend the valves.

  • 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 sensors could be damaged.

  • Do not damage the valves and sensors when storing the wheels or fitting different tyres.

  • Replace the TPMS sensor valve stem (including valve core and cap) and screw (where fitted) when the tyres are replaced due to wear or age. The screw (where fitted) must be fitted correctly with a torque setting of 1.4 ± 0.1 N·m (0.14 ± 0.01 kg-m). The TPMS sensors can be used again.
