SSS0133A

WARNING:

. Do not drive and/or ride in the vehicle with

the seatback reclined. This can be danger­ous. The shoulder belt will not be properly
against the body. In an accident, you and
your passengers could be thrown into the
shoulder belt and receive neck or other
serious injuries. You and your passengers
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious injuries.

. For the most effective protection while the

vehicle is in motion, the seatback should be
upright. Always sit well back in the seat and
adjust the seat belt properly. (See “Seat
belts” (P.1-7).)

FRONT SEATS

Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle
operation.

Manual seat adjustment

After adjusting a seat, gently shake the seat to
confirm that the seat is locked securely. If the
seat is not locked securely, it may move
suddenly and could cause the loss of control of
the vehicle.

Check the adjustment after someone else uses
the seat. Do not attach anything to the head
restraint stalks or remove the head restraint. Do
not use the seat if the head restraint has been
removed. If the head restraint was removed,
reinstall and properly adjust the head restraint
before an occupant uses the seating position.
Failure to follow these instructions can reduce
the effectiveness of the head restraint. This may
increase the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision.

. Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint that

may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.

. Adjustable head restraints have multiple notches

along the stalk to lock them in a desired
adjustment position.

. The non-adjustable head restraints have a single

locking notch to secure them to the seat frame.

. Proper Adjustment:

— For the adjustable type, align the head restraint

so the center of your ear is approximately level
with the center of the head restraint.

— If your ear position is still higher than the

recommended alignment, place the head
restraint at the highest position.

. If the head restraint has been removed, ensure

that it is reinstalled and locked in place before
riding in that designated seating position.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE

If you are wearing the seat belt properly adjusted and
sitting upright and well back in the seat, chances of
being injured or killed in an accident and/or the severity
of injury may be greatly reduced. NISSAN strongly
encourages you and all of your passengers to buckle
up every time you drive, even if your seating position
includes the supplemental air bag systems.

Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-7

(26,1)

WARNING:

. Seatbelts are designed to bear upon the

bony structure of the body, and should be
worn low across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable;
wearing the lap section of the belt across
the abdominal area must be avoided. Ser­ious injury may occur if a seat belt is not
worn properly.

. Position the lap belt as low and snug as

possible around the hips, not the waist. A
lap belt worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an accident.

. Do not allow more than one person to use

the same seat belt. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is danger­ous to put a belt around a child being carried
on the occupant’s lap.

. Never carry more people in the vehicle than

there are seat belts.

. Never wear seat belts inside out. Belts

should not be worn with straps twisted.
Doing so may reduce their effectiveness.

. Seatbelts should be adjusted as firmly as

possible, consistent with comfort, to provide
the protection for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.

. Every person who drives or rides in this

vehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be properly restrained in the
rear seat and, if appropriate, in a child
restraint system.

. Do not run the belt behind your back or

under your arm. Always route the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your
chest. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder. Serious injury may occur if a seat
belt is not worn properly.

. No modifications or additions should be

made by the user which will either prevent
the seat belt adjusting devices from operat­ing to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted to remove
slack.

. Care should be taken to avoid contamina-

tion of the webbing with polishes, oils and
chemicals, and particularly battery acid.
Cleaning may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed, con­taminated or damaged.

. All seat belt assemblies including retractors

and attaching hardware should be inspected
after any collision by a NISSAN dealer.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt
assemblies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was minor
and the belts show no damage and continue
to operate properly. Seat belt assemblies
not in use during a collision should also be
inspected and, when necessary, replaced if
either damage or improper operation is
noted.

. It is essential to replace the entire assembly

after it has been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly is not
obvious.

. Once the pre-tensioner seat belt (if

equipped) has activated, it cannot be reused.
It must be replaced together with the
retractor. Contact a NISSAN dealer.

. Removal and installation of the pre-ten-

sioner seat belt system components (if
equipped) should be done by a NISSAN
dealer.

CHILD SAFETY

GUID-50FE0FCD-DBC6-4BF8-A13A-E3AFA74EB719

WARNING:

. Infants and children need special protection.

The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them
properly. The shoulder belt may come too
close to the face or neck. The lap belt may
not fit over their small hipbones. In an
accident, an improperly fitted seat belt could
cause serious or fatal injury.

. Always use an appropriate child restraint

system.

Children need adults to help protect them. They need
to be properly restrained. The proper restraint depends
on the child’s size.

Infants and small children

GUID-9EA9FF02-4615-4E08-8998-8897493078B8

SSS0099

NISSAN recommends that infants and small children
be seated in a child restraint system. You should
choose a child restraint system that fits your vehicle
and the child, and always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.

Large children

GUID-7EC09A67-00D1-4A31-9107-8BC52BC8A5CE

WARNING:

. Never allow children to stand or kneel on

any seats.

. Never allow children in the cargo areas while

the vehicle is moving. A child could be
seriously injured in an accident or sudden
stop.

Children who are too large for a child restraint system
should be seated and restrained by the seat belts that
are provided.

If the child’s seating position has a shoulder belt that
fits close to the face or neck, the use of a booster seat
(commercially available) may help overcome this. The
booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder
belt is properly positioned across the top, middle

portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the
hips. The booster seat should also fit the vehicle seat.
Once the child has grown so that the shoulder belt is
no longer on or near the face or neck of the child, use
the shoulder belt without the booster seat. In addition,
there are many types of child restraint systems
available for larger children that should be used for
maximum protection.

PREGNANT WOMEN

NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat

GUID-EB362D86-544D-4564-AF14-2AA962BFFC63

belts. The seat belt should be worn snug, and always
position the lap belt as low as possible around the
hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run the lap/
shoulder belt over your abdominal area. Contact your
doctor for specific recommendations.

INJURED PERSONS

NISSAN recommends that injured persons use seat

CHILD RESTRAINTS

GUID-F2068D73-379A-46BC-9200-AB7FD98E9DCB

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RESTRAINT
USAGE

. Infants and small children should always be

placed in an appropriate child restraint while
riding in the vehicle. Failure to use a child
restraint can result in serious injury or death.

. Infants and small children should never be

carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself.

. NISSAN recommends that the child re-

straints be installed in the rear seat. Accord­ing to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear seat
than in the front seat.

. Improper use or improper installation of a

child restraint can increase the risk or
severity of injury for both the child and other
occupants of the vehicle and can lead to

GUID-843A7C9C-1266-4B11-9B92-C7AD768A370E

SSS0099

WARNING:

serious injury or death in an accident.

. Follow all of the child restraint manufac-

turer’s instructions for installation and use.
When purchasing a child restraint, be sure to
select one which will fit your child and
vehicle. It may not be possible to properly
install some types of child restraint in your
vehicle.

. The direction of the child restraint, either

front-facing or rear-facing, depends on the
type of the child restraint and the size of the
child. Refer to the child restraint manufac­turer’s instructions for details.

. Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned

to fit the child restraint, but as upright as
possible.

. After attaching a child restraint, test it

before you place the child in it. Push it from
side to side and tug it forward to make sure
that it is held securely in place. The child
restraint should not move more than 25 mm
(1 in). If the restraint is not secure, tighten
the belt as necessary, or install the restraint
in another seat and test it again.

. When the child restraint is not in use, keep it

secured with a seat belt to prevent it from
being thrown around in case of a sudden
stop or accident.

. Never install a rear-facing child restraint on

the front passenger’s seat when the front
passenger’s air bag is available. Supple­mental front-impact air bags inflate with
great force. A rear-facing child restraint
could be struck by the supplemental front­impact air bags in an accident and could
seriously injure or kill your child.

. If the seat belt in the position where a child

restraint is installed requires a locking
device and if it is not used, injuries could
result from a child restraint tipping over
during normal vehicle braking or cornering.

CAUTION:

Remember that a child restraint left in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. Check the seating
surface and buckles before placing your child in
a child restraint.

NISSAN recommends that infants and small children
be seated in a child restraint. You should choose a
child restraint that fits your vehicle and always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
In addition, there are many types of child restraints
available for larger children that should be used for
maximum protection.

CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE (if
equipped)

Your vehicle is designed to accommodate a child
restraint system on the rear seat. When installing a
child restraint system, carefully read and follow the
instructions in this manual and those supplied with the
child restraint system.

. Child restraint anchorages are designed to

withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle. Doing so
could damage the child restraint an­chorages. The child restraint will not be

GUID-33C3B6B4-4C4F-4C02-B8D3-E13829BAF5BB

PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL RE­STRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driver’s
and passenger’s supplemental front-impact air bags,
supplemental side-impact air bags, supplemental
curtain side-impact air bags and pre-tensioner seat
belts.

Supplemental front-impact air bag system

This system can help cushion the impact force to the
head and chest area of the driver and/or front
passenger in certain frontal collisions. The supple­mental front-impact air bag is designed to inflate on the
front where the vehicle is impacted.

GUID-17232207-DAB5-4C49-986F-9CACB2FAA6F8

GUID-5ED4D143-8D8A-4A77-BB38-6650BD18322C

Supplemental side-impact air bag system (if
equipped)

This system can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvis areas of the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact collisions. The
supplemental side-impact air bag is designed to inflate
on the side where the vehicle is impacted.

GUID-931BDBE2-9985-41F3-A607-F67C072B2A98

Supplemental curtain side-impact air bag
system (if equipped)

This system can help cushion the impact force to the
head of the driver and passengers in front and rear
outboard seating positions in certain side-impact
collisions. The supplemental curtain side-impact air
bag is designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle
is impacted.

The SRS is designed to supplement the accident
protection provided by the driver’s and passenger’s
seat belts and is not designed to substitute for them.
The SRS can help save lives and reduce serious
injuries. However, inflating air bags may cause abra-

1-18 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

GUID-AA4E0875-0C69-409F-AE9A-D2E13197266A

sions or other injuries. Air bags do not provide
protection to the lower body. Seat belts should always
be correctly worn and the occupants should always be
seated a suitable distance away from the steering
wheel and instrument panel. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-7).)
The air bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the
occupants. The force of the air bags inflating can
increase the risk of injury if the occupants are too close
to, or are against, the air bag modules during inflation.
The air bags will deflate quickly after deployment.

The SRS operates only when the ignition switch
is in the “ON” position.

When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position,
the SRS air bag warning light illuminates for
about 7 seconds and then turns off. This
indicates that the SRS air bag system is opera­tional. (See “SRS air bag warning light” (P.1-21).)

WARNING:

. The supplemental front-impact air bags

ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a
side impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower
severity frontal collision. Always wear the
seat belts to help reduce the risk or severity
of injury in accidents.

. The seat belts and the supplemental front-

impact air bags are most effective when you
are sitting well back and upright in the seat.
The front-impact air bags inflate with great
force. If you and your passengers are unrest-

SSS0132A

rained, leaning forward, sitting sideways, or
out of position in any way, you and your
passengers are at greater risk of injury or
death in an accident. You and your passen­gers may also receive serious or fatal
injuries from the supplemental front-impact
air bag if you are up against it when it
inflates. Always sit back against the seat­back and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel or instrument panel. Always
use the seat belts.

WARNING:

. The supplemental side-impact air bags and

supplemental curtain side-impact air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a
front impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower
severity side collision. Always wear the seat
belts to help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in accidents.

. The seat belts and the supplemental side-

impact air bags and supplemental curtain
side-impact air bags are most effective when
you are sitting well back and upright in the
seat. The supplemental side-impact air bags
and supplemental curtain side-impact air
bags inflate with great force. If you and your
passengers are unrestrained, leaning for­ward, sitting sideways, or out of position in
any way, you and your passengers are at
greater risk of injury or death in an accident.

. Do not allow anyone to place their hands,

legs, or face near the supplemental side­impact air bags and supplemental curtain
side-impact air bags on the sides of the
seatback of the front seats or near the side
roof rails. Do not allow anyone sitting in the
front seats or rear outboard seats to extend
their hands out of the windows or lean
against the doors. Some examples of dan­gerous riding positions are shown in the
illustrations.

. When sitting in the rear seats, do not hold

onto the seatback of the front seats. If the
supplemental side-impact air bags and sup­plemental curtain side-impact air bags in­flate, you may be seriously injured. Be
especially careful with children, who should

always be properly restrained.

. Do not use seat covers on the front seat-

backs. They may interfere with the supple­mental side-impact air bag inflations.

Pre-tensioner seat belt system (if equipped)

The pre-tensioner system may activate with the

GUID-DA98CD59-33B1-4E88-A881-D47884262132

supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor and
anchor, it helps tighten the seat belt the instant the
vehicle becomes involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants. (See “Pre­tensioner seat belt system” (P.1-26).)

WARNING:

. Do not place any objects on the steering

wheel pad, on the instrument panel, and
near the front door finishers and the front
seats. Do not place any objects between any
occupants and the steering wheel pad, on
the instrument panel, and near the front
door finishers and the front seats. Such
objects may become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if a supplemental air bag
inflates.

. Immediately after inflation, several supple-

mental air bag system components will be
hot. Do not touch them: you may severely
burn yourself.

. No unauthorized changes should be made

to any components or wiring of the supple­mental air bag systems. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the supplemental air
bags or damage to the supplemental air bag
systems.

. Do not make unauthorized changes to your

vehicle’s electrical system, suspension sys­tem, front end structure, and side panels.
This could affect proper operation of the
supplemental air bag systems.

. Tampering with the supplemental air bag

systems may result in serious personal
injury. Tampering includes changes to the
steering wheel and the instrument panel by
placing materials over the steering wheel
pad and above, around or on the instrument
panel or by installing additional trim materi­als around the supplemental air bag sys­tems.

. Work around and on the supplemental air

bag systems should be done by a NISSAN
dealer. The SRS wiring should not be
modified or disconnected. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and probing de­vices should not be used on the supple­mental air bag systems.

. The SRS wiring harness connectors are

yellow and/or orange for easy identification.

When the air bags inflate, a fairly loud noise may be
heard, followed by the release of smoke. This smoke is
not harmful and does not indicate a fire. Care should
be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breathing condition
should get fresh air promptly.

Supplemental front-impact air bag system

The driver’s supplemental front-impact air bag is
located at the center of the steering wheel. The
passenger’s supplemental front-impact air bag is
located at the instrument panel above the glove box.

The supplemental front-impact air bag system is
designed to inflate in higher severity frontal collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of a higher severity frontal
impact. It may not inflate in certain frontal collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental front-impact air
bag system operation.

. If the vehicle becomes involved in a collision

but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be
sure to have the pre-tensioner system
checked and, if necessary, replaced by a
NISSAN dealer.

. No unauthorized changes should be made

to any components or wiring of the pre­tensioner seat belt system. This is to prevent
accidental activation of the pre-tensioner
seat belt or damage to the pre-tensioner

GUID-DB266FAA-0FF0-4D08-8D8B-A4F08BB31581

WARNING:

seat belt system.

. Work around or on the pre-tensioner seat

belt system should be done by a NISSAN
dealer. The SRS wiring should not be
modified or disconnected. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and probing de­vices should not be used on the pre­tensioner seat belt system.

. If you need to dispose of the pre-tensioner

seat belt system, or scrap the vehicle,
contact a NISSAN dealer. Correct pre-ten­sioner disposal procedures are set forth in
the appropriate NISSAN Service Manual.
Incorrect disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.

The pre-tensioner system may activate with the
supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor, it helps
tighten the seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions, helping to
restrain front seat occupants.

The pre-tensioner is encased with the front seat belt’s
retractor and anchor. These seat belts are used the
same as conventional seat belts.

When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates, a fairly loud
noise may be heard, followed by the release of smoke.
This smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a fire.
Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause
irritation and choking. Those with a history of a
breathing condition should get fresh air promptly.

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PROCE­DURE

. Once the air bags have been inflated, the air

bag modules will not function and must be
replaced. The air bag modules must be
replaced by a NISSAN dealer. The inflated
air bag modules cannot be repaired.

. The air bag systems should be inspected by

a NISSAN dealer if there is any damage to
the front end portion of the vehicle.

. If you need to dispose of the SRS or scrap

the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer. Cor­rect disposal procedures are set forth in the
appropriate NISSAN Service Manual. Incor­rect disposal procedures could cause perso­nal injury.

The air bags and pre-tensioner seat belts are designed
to activate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder,
unless the SRS air bag warning light is damaged, the
SRS air bag warning light remains illuminated after
inflation has occurred. The repair and replacement of
the SRS should be done only by a NISSAN dealer.

When maintenance work is required on the vehicle,
information about the air bags, pre-tensioner seat belts
and related parts should be pointed out to the person
performing the maintenance. The ignition switch
should always be in the “LOCK” position when working
under the hood or inside the vehicle.

XENON HEADLIGHTS (if equipped)

. When xenon headlights are on, they produce

a high voltage. To prevent an electric shock,
never attempt to modify or disassemble.
Always have your xenon headlights checked
and/or replaced at a NISSAN dealer.

. Xenon headlights provide considerably

more light than conventional headlights. If
they are not correctly aimed, they might
temporarily blind an oncoming driver or a
driver ahead of you and could cause a
serious accident. Immediately take your
vehicle to a NISSAN dealer and have the
headlights adjusted correctly.

When the xenon headlights are initially turned on, their
brightness and color vary slightly. However, the color
and brightness will soon stabilize.

The life of xenon headlights will be shortened by
frequent on-off operation. It is generally desirable not
to turn off the headlights for short intervals.

If the xenon headlight bulb is close to burning out, the
brightness will drastically decrease, the headlight will
start blinking, or the color of the headlight will become
reddish. If one or more of the above conditions appear,
contact a NISSAN dealer.

HEADLIGHT AIMING CONTROL (if
equipped)

Manual type

The headlight aiming control operates when the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position and the headlight
is on to allow the headlight axis to be adjusted
according to the driving condition.

When driving with no heavy load/luggage or driving on
a flat road, select the normal position “0”.

If the number of occupants and load/luggage in the
vehicle changes, the headlight axis may become higher
than normal.

If the vehicle is traveling on a hilly road, the headlights
may directly shine on the rearview and outside mirrors
of a vehicle ahead or the windshield of an oncoming
vehicle, which may obscure other drivers’ vision.

To adjust to the proper aiming height, turn the switch
accordingly. The higher the number, designated on the
switch, the lower the headlight axis.

3. Key number plate

WARNING:

. Radio waves could adversely affect electric

medical equipment. Those who use a pace­maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible
influences before use.

. The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves

when the buttons are pushed. The radio
waves may affect aircraft navigation and
communication systems. Do not operate the
Intelligent Key while on an airplane. Make
sure the buttons are not operated uninten­tionally when the unit is stored during a
flight.

The Intelligent Key system can operate all the door
(including the back door) locks using the remote
controller function or pushing the request switch on
the vehicle without taking the key out from a pocket or
purse. The operating environment and/or conditions
may affect the Intelligent Key system operation.

Be sure to read the following before using the
Intelligent Key system.

CAUTION:

. Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you

when operating the vehicle.

. Never leave the Intelligent Key in the vehicle

when you leave the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key is always communicating with the
vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Intelligent Key
system transmits weak radio waves. Environmental
conditions may interfere with the operation of the
Intelligent Key system under the following operating
conditions.

. When operating near a location where strong

radio waves are transmitted, such as a TV tower,
power station and broadcasting station.

. When in possession of wireless equipment, such

as a cellular telephone, transceiver, and CB radio.

. When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or

covered by metallic materials.

. When any type of radio wave remote control is

used nearby.

. When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric

appliance such as a personal computer.

. When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter.
In such cases, correct the operating conditions before

using the Intelligent Key function or use the mechanical
key.

Although the life of the battery varies depending on the
operating conditions, the battery’s life is approximately
2 years. If the battery is discharged, replace it with a
new one.

For information regarding replacement of a battery, see
“Intelligent Key battery” (P.8-20).

Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving radio
waves, if the key is left near equipment which transmits
strong radio waves, such as signals from a TV and
personal computer, the battery life may become
shorter.

Because the steering wheel is locked electrically,
unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch in
the “LOCK” position is impossible when the vehicle
battery is completely discharged. Pay special attention
that the vehicle battery is not completely discharged.

As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be used with one
vehicle. For information about the purchase and use of
additional Intelligent Keys, contact a NISSAN dealer.

CAUTION:

. Do not allow the Intelligent Key, which

contains electrical components, to come
into contact with water or salt water. This
could affect the system function.

. Do not drop the Intelligent Key.
. Do not strike the Intelligent Key sharply

against another object.

. Do not change or modify the Intelligent Key.
. Wetting may damage the Intelligent Key. If

the Intelligent Key gets wet, immediately
wipe until it is completely dry.

. If the outside temperature is below −108C

(148F), the battery of the Intelligent Key may
not function properly.

. Do not place the Intelligent Key for an

extended period in an area where tempera­tures exceed 608C (1408F) .

. Do not attach the Intelligent Key with a key

holder that contains a magnet.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments 3-7

(82,1)

. Do not place the Intelligent Key near equip-

ment that produces a magnetic field, such as
a TV, audio equipment and personal compu­ters.

If an Intelligent Key is lost or stolen, NISSAN
recommends erasing the ID code of that Intelligent
Key from the vehicle. This may prevent the unauthor­ized use of the Intelligent Key to operate the vehicle.
For information regarding the erasing procedure,
contact a NISSAN dealer.

The Intelligent Key function can be disabled. For
information about disabling the Intelligent Key function,
contact a NISSAN dealer.

OPERATING RANGE

The Intelligent Key functions can only be used when
the Intelligent Key is within the specified operating
range from the request switch

When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged or
strong radio waves are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key system’s operating range
becomes narrower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.

The operating range is within 80 cm (31.50 in) from
each request switch

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS REARVIEW MONITOR (if equipped)

GUID-EB68331A-AB52-4043-829E-CC3572EDA3B3

WARNING:

. Do not adjust the heater and air conditioner

controls or audio controls while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle
operation.

. If you noticed any foreign objects entering

the system hardware, spilled liquid on the
system, or noticed smoke or fumes coming
out from the system, or any other unusual
operation is observed, stop using the system
immediately and contact the nearest
NISSAN dealer. Ignoring such conditions
may lead to an accident, fire or electric
shock.

. Do not disassemble or modify this system. If

you do, it may lead to an accident, fire, or
electric shock.

CAUTION:

Do not use the system when the engine is not
running for extended periods of time to prevent
battery discharge.

When the shift lever is shifted into the “R” (Reverse)
position, the monitor display shows a rearward view
from the vehicle.

The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel parking.

Designs and items displayed on the screen may vary
depending on the models.

. The Rearview Monitor is a convenience but it

is not a substitute to check behind the
vehicle when backing up. The driver is
always responsible for safety during parking
and other manoeuvres.

. Objects viewed in the Rearview Monitor

differ from actual distance because a wide­angle lens is used. Objects in the Rearview
Monitor will appear visually opposite like
ones viewed in the inside and outside
mirrors.

. Make sure that the back door is securely

closed when backing up.

. Underneath the bumper and the corner

areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on
the Rearview Monitor because of its mon­itoring range limitation.

. Do not put anything on the Rearview cam-

era.

. The Rearview camera is installed above the

license plate.

. When washing the vehicle with high-pres-

sure water, be sure not to spray it around the
camera. Otherwise, water may enter the
camera unit causing water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric

GUID-10AFA7C1-CB91-4B5B-9BCE-890B3A9C63E0

WARNING:

shock.

. Do not strike the camera. It is a precision

instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or
cause damage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock.

CAUTION:

Do not scratch the camera lens when cleaning
dirt or snow from the lens.

HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER

GUID-D6D9F812-CB78-4FA4-ADF1-EACDF071310D

WARNING:

. Never leave children or adults who would

normally require the support of others alone
in the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be­come involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause se­vere or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.

. Do not use the recirculation mode for long

periods as it may cause the interior air to
become stale and the windows to fog up.

. Do not adjust the heating and air condition-

ing controls while driving so that full atten­tion may be given to vehicle operation.

The heater and air conditioner operate when the
engine is running. The air blower will operate even if
the engine is turned off and the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.

NOTE:
. Odors from inside and outside the vehicle

can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odor
can enter the passenger compartment
through the vents.

. When parking, set the heater and air condi-

tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to
allow fresh air into the passenger compart­ment. This should help reduce odors inside
the vehicle.

OPERATING TIPS (for automatic air condi­tioner)

*: The illustration is for the Left-Hand Drive (LHD)
model. For the Right-Hand Drive (RHD) model, the
layout will be the opposite.

When the engine coolant temperature and outside air
temperature are low, the air flow from the foot outlets
may not operate. However, this is not a malfunction.
After the coolant temperature warms up, the air flow
from the foot outlets will operate normally.
