2013 Infiniti M Sedan Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)



The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors tire pressure. A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message will appear in the Dot Matrix Liquid Crystal Display and the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate when one or more tires are low on pressure and air is needed. Adjust the low tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 miles per hour. The warning and indicator light will disappear. If the low tire pressure warning light flashes for approximately one minute and then remains on after you turn the ignition ON, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by an Infiniti retailer.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle's operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature, check the tire pressure in your tires.

The Tire and Loading Information label provides important information at a glance. It lists proper tire size and pressure. It also lists the maximum number of occupants for your vehicle and its maximum load capacity. Please check your Owner's Manual for the location of the Tire and Loading Information label on your vehicle.

A final note: The Tire Pressure Monitoring System does NOT detect a sudden drop in tire pressure as with a tire blowout. And it is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance.

Your vehicle also provides individual tire pressure information on the Vehicle Information Display.

Press the INFO button on the center multi-function control panel. Then select, "Tire Pressure" on the Vehicle Information Display.

Tire Pressure indication in kPa or PSI on the screen means that the pressure is being measured. After a few trips, the pressure for each of your tires will be displayed.

In case of low tire pressure, LOW PRESSURE information will be displayed on the screen. Check the pressure of all tires.

After tire rotation is performed, tire pressure will not be displayed in the actual tire position. Drive the vehicle at over 25 MPH or (40 km/h) for approximately 10 minutes to reset the display
