PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE If you are wearing your seat belt properly ad- justed and you are sitting upright and well back in your seat with both feet on the floor, your chances of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the severity of injury may be greatly reduced.
WARNING ● Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all times. Children should be properly re- strained in the rear seat and, if appro- priate, in a child restraint. WARNING ● The seat belt should be properly ad- justed to a snug fit.
WARNING ● Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never put the belt behind your back, under your arm or across your neck. The belt should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder. ● Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NO T THE WAIST .
PREGNANT WOMEN NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat 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.
䊊 2 Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear and feel the latch engage. ● The retractor is designed to lock during a sudden stop or on impact. A slow pulling motion permits the seat belt to move, and allows you some freedom of movement in the seat.
Unfastening the seat belts 䊊 1 T o unfasten the seat belt, press the button on the buckle. The seat belt automatically re- tracts. Checking seat belt operation Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat belt movement by two separate methods: ● When the seat belt is pulled quickly from the retractor.
The shoulder belt comfort assist arm can be adjusted to the position best for you. See “Pre- cautions on seat belt usage” earlier in this sec- tion.
● If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly . Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry cloth. ● Periodically check to see that the seat belt and the metal components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors work properly .
This is especially important because your vehicle has a supplemental restraint sys- tem (Air bag system) for the front passen- ger. See “Supplemental restraint system” later in this section. INFANTS Infants up to at least 1 year old should be placed in a rear-facing child restraint.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RESTRAINTS WARNING ● Failure to follow the warnings and in- structions for proper use and installa- tion of child restraints could result in serious injury or death of a child or other passengers in a sudden stop or collision: – The child restraint must be used and installed properly.
– Child restraint anchor points are de- signed to withstand loads from child restraints that are properly fitted. – Never use the anchor points for adult seat belts or harnesses. – A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat.
LA T CH (Lower Anchors and T ethers for CHildren) SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with special anchor points that are used with LA TCH (Lower Anchors and T ethers for CHildren) system compatible child restraints. This system may also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible system.
Installing child restraint LA T CH lower anchor attachments LA TCH compatible child restraints include two rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can be connected to two anchors located at certain seating positions in your vehicle. With this sys- tem, you do not have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the child restraint.
T op tether anchor WARNING Do not allow cargo to contact the top tether strap when it is attached to the top tether anchor. Properly secure the cargo so it does not contact the top tether strap. Cargo that is not properly secured or cargo that contacts the top tether strap may damage it during a collision.
3. Secure the child restraint anchor attach- ments to the LA TCH lower anchors. Check to make sure the LA TCH attachment is prop- erly attached to the lower anchors. 4. For child restraints that are equipped with webbing-mounted attachments, remove any additional slack from the anchor attach- ments.
5. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it. Push it from side to side while holding the child restraint near the LA TCH attachment path. The child re- straint should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from side to side.
WARNING The three-point seat belt with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) must be used when installing a child restraint. Failure to use the ALR mode will result in the child restraint not being properly secured. The restraint could tip over or be loose and cause injury to a child in a sudden stop or collision.
3. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode) . It reverts to the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode when the seat belt is fully retracted.
6. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it. Push it from side to side while holding the child restraint near the seat belt path. The child restraint should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from side to side. T ry to tug it forward and check to see if the belt holds the restraint in place.
3. Secure the child restraint anchor attach- ments to the LA TCH lower anchors. Check to make sure the LA TCH attachment is prop- erly attached to the lower anchors. If the child restraint is equipped with a top tether strap, route the top tether strap and secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point.
5. For child restraints that are equipped with webbing-mounted attachments, remove any additional slack from the anchor attach- ments. Press downward and rearward firmly in the center of the child restraint with your knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while tightening the webbing of the anchor attachments.
Refer to all W arnings and Cautions in the “Child Safety” and “Child Restraint” sections before in- stalling a child restraint. Follow these steps to install a forward-facing child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear seats or in the front passenger seat: 1.
4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode) . It reverts to Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode when the seat belt is fully retracted.
8. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it. Push it from side to side while holding the child restraint near the seat belt path. The child restraint should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from side to side. T ry to tug it forward and check to see if the belt holds the restraint in place.
INSTALLING TOP TETHER STRAP First, secure the child restraint with the LA TCH lower anchors (rear outboard seat positions only) or the seat belt, as applicable. 1. Flip up the anchor cover 䊊 1 from the anchor point which is located directly behind the child seat.
● Make sure the child’s head will be properly supported by the booster seat or vehicle seat. The seatback must be at or above the center of the child’s ears. For example, if a low back booster seat 䊊 1 is chosen, the vehicle seatback must be at or above the center of the child’s ears.
1. If you must install a booster seat in the front seat, move the seat to the rear- most position. 2. P osition the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a front-facing direction. Always follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in- structions. 3.
7. If the booster seat is installed in the front passenger seat, place the ignition switch in the ON position. The front passenger air bag status light may or may not illuminate, depending on the size of the child and the type of booster seat being used.
WARNING ● The front air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a side impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower severity fron- tal collision. Always wear your seat belts to help reduce the risk or severity of injury in various kinds of accidents.
WARNING ● Never let children ride unrestrained or extend their hands or face out of the window. Do not attempt to hold them in your lap or arms. Some examples of dangerous riding positions are shown in the illustrations.

NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System (front seats) This vehicle is equipped with the NISSAN Ad- vanced Air Bag System for the driver and front passenger seats. This system is designed to meet certification requirements under U.S. regu- lations. It is also permitted in Canada.
Front passenger air bag and status light WARNING The front passenger air bag is designed to automatically turn OFF under some con- ditions. Read this section carefully to learn how it operates. Proper use of the seat, seat belt and child restraints is nec- essary for most effective protection.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil- dren be properly restrained in a rear seat. NISSAN also recommends that appropriate child restraints and booster seats be properly installed in a rear seat.
● Do not place objects with sharp edges on the seat. Also, do not place heavy objects on the seat that will leave per- manent impressions in the seat. Such objects can damage the seat or occu- pant classification sensor (pattern sen- sor) . This can affect the operation of the air bag system and result in serious personal injury.
Front seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bag and roof- mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bag systems The side air bags are located in the outside of the seatback of the front seats. The curtain air bags are located in the side roof rails.
● Right after inflation, several side air bag and curtain 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 side air bag and curtain air bag systems.
The pretensioner system activates in conjunction with the front air bag system. W orking 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.
SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT The supplemental air bag warning light, displaying in the instrument panel, moni- tors the circuits of the supplemental front-impact air bag, front seat-mounted side-impact supple- mental air bag, roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bag and seat belt pretensioner systems.
● The front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag systems and the pretensioner system should be inspected by a NISSAN dealer if there is any damage to the front end or side portion of the vehicle. ● If you need to dispose of a supplemen- tal air bag or pretensioners or scrap the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer.

5 Starting and driving Precautions when starting and driving ................5 - 2 Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide) ..................5 - 2 Three-way catalyst ..............................5 - 2 Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) ..........5 - 3 Avoiding collision and rollover .
WARNING ● Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assistance of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left alone. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the vehicle.
CAUTION ● Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded gasoline will seriously re- duce the three-way catalyst’s ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants. ● Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc- tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat.
● The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) . Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire while driving) . ● The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is adjusted.
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.
● If you decide that it is not safe to return the vehicle to the road surface based on vehicle, road or traffic conditions, gradually slow the vehicle to a stop in a safe place off the road. RAPID AIR PRESSURE LOSS Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged due to hitting a curb or pothole.
WARNING Do not operate the push-button ignition switch while driving the vehicle except in an emergency. (The engine will stop when the ignition switch is pushed 3 consecu- tive times in quick succession or the igni- tion switch is pushed and held for more than 2 seconds.
PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH POSITIONS LOCK (Normal parking position) : The ignition switch can only be locked in this position. The ignition switch will be unlocked when it is pushed to the ACC position while carrying the Intelligent K ey or with the Intelligent Key inserted in the port.
T o remove the Intelligent K ey from the port, push the ignition switch to the L OCK position and pull the Intelligent K ey out of the port 䊊 C . NO TE: The Intelligent Key port does not charge the Intelligent Key battery. If you see the low battery indicator, replace the battery as soon as possible.
1. Apply the parking brake. 2. Continuously V ariable T ransmission (CVT) model: Move the shift selector to P (Park) or N (Neutral) . P (Park) is recommended. The starter is designed not to operate if the shift selector is in any of the driving positions.
CONTINUOUSLY V ARIABLE T RANSMISSION (CVT) (if so equipped) WARNING ● Do not depress the accelerator pedal while shifting from P (Park) or N (Neu- tral) to R (Reverse) , D (Drive) , Ds (Drive Sport) or (M) Manual shift mode. Al- ways depress the brake pedal until shifting is completed.
The CVT can operate in two different automatic drive modes: ● D (Drive) mode - Move the shift selector to D (Drive) , the transmission is in the normal forward automatic driving mode. The posi- tion indicator in the meter shows a “D” . The D (Drive) mode does not produce a gear change sensation like a traditional automatic transmission.
T o move the shift selector: Push the button while depressing the brake pedal Push the button to shift Shift without pushing button Shifting After starting the engine, fully depress the brake pedal and move the shift selector from P (Park) to any of the desired shift positions.
Ds (Drive sport) : When the shift selector is shifted from the D (Drive) position to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters the Ds (Drive Sport) mode. Moving the shift selector to the Ds (Drive Sport) position allows smooth acceleration or decelera- tion on a hilly road by moving into a lower gear automatically .
When shifting up: Move the shift selector to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher range.) When shifting down: Move the shift selector to the ⫺ (down) side. (Shifts to lower range.) ● The transmission will automatically down- shift the gears. (For example, if you select the 3rd range, the transmission will shift down between the 3rd and 1st gears.
2. Apply the parking brake. 3. For cap removal it must be used or if it is available a plastic trim tool can be used 4. Using a protective cloth on the tip o fa3m m screwdriver, remove the shift lock release cover. ● If available, a plastic trim tool can also be used.
WARNING When the high fluid temperature protec- tion mode or fail-safe operation occurs, vehicle speed may be gradually reduced. The reduced speed may be lower than other traffic , which could increase the chance of a collision. Be especially care- ful when driving.
T o back up, lift up on the shift selector ring 䊊 1 and then move it to the R (Reverse) position after stopping the vehicle completely . The shift selector ring 䊊 1 returns to its original position when the shift selector is moved to the N (Neutral) position.
WARNING ● Be sure the parking brake is fully re- leased before driving. Failure to do so can cause brake failure and lead to an accident. ● Do not release the parking brake from outside the vehicle. ● Do not use the shift selector in place of the parking brake.
1. CANCEL switch 2. ACCEL/RES switch 3. COAST/SET switch 4. ON/OFF switch PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE CONTROL ● If the cruise control system malfunctions, it cancels automatically . The SET indicator light in the instrument panel then blinks to warn the driver.
The cruise control is automatically canceled and the SET light in the instrument panel goes out if: ● you depress the brake or clutch pedal while pushing the ACCEL/RES or SET/COAST switch. The preset speed is deleted from memory . ● the vehicle slows down more than 8 MPH (13 km/h) below the set speed.
● Accelerate slowly and smoothly . Maintain cruising speeds with a constant accelerator position. ● Drive at moderate speeds on the highway . Driving at high speed lowers fuel economy . ● Avoid unnecessary stopping and braking. Maintain a safe distance behind other ve- hicles.
WARNING ● Do not stop or park the vehicle over flammable materials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags. They may ignite and cause a fire. ● Safe parking procedures require that both the parking brake be set and the transmission placed into P (Park) for CVT models or in an appropriate gear for manual transmission models.
The power assisted steering uses a hydraulic pump, driven by the engine, to assist steering. If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks, you will still have control of the vehicle. However, much greater steering effort is needed, especially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
T o dry the brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe speed while lightly pressing the brake pedal to heat up the brakes. Do this until the brakes return to normal.
Normal operation The ABS operates at speeds abov e3-6M P H( 5 - 10 km/h) . The speed varies according to road conditions. When the ABS senses that 1 or more wheels are close to locking up, the actuator rapidly applies and releases hydraulic pressure. This action is similar to pumping the brakes very quickly .
● Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension. If suspension parts such as shock ab- sorbers, struts, springs, stabilizer bars, bushings and wheels are not NISSAN approved for your vehicle or are ex - tremely deteriorated the V ehicle Dy- namic Control system may not operate properly.
DRAINING OF COOLANT WATER If the vehicle is to be left outside without anti- freeze, drain the cooling system, including the engine block. Refill before operating the vehicle. For details, see “Changing engine coolant” in the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this manual.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (if so equipped) WARNING ● Do not use your engine block heater with an ungrounded electrical system or a 2-pronged adapter. Y ou can be se- riously injured by an electrical shock if you use an ungrounded connection. ● Disconnect and properly store the en- gine block heater cord before starting the engine.

If you have a flat tire, see “Flat tire” in the “In case of emergency” section of this manual. TIRE PRESSURE Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
Tire inflation pressure Check the tire pressures (including the spare) often and always prior to long dis- tance trips. The recommended tire pres- sure specifications are shown on the F .M.V .S.S./C.M.V .S.S. certification label or the Tire and Loading Information label under the “Cold Tire Pressure” heading.
Tire and loading information label 䊊 1 Seating capacity: The maximum num- ber of occupants that can be seated in the vehicle. 䊊 2 V ehicle load limit: See “V ehicle load- ing information” in the “T echnical and consumer information” section.
Checking tire pressure 1. Remove the valve stem cap from the tire. 2. Press the pressure gauge squarely onto the valve stem. Do not press too hard or force the valve stem side- ways, or air will escape. If the hissing sound of air escaping from the tire is heard while checking the pressure, reposition the gauge to eliminate this leakage.

For additional traction on icy roads, studded tires may be used. However, some U.S. states and Canadian provinces prohibit their use. Check local, state and provincial laws before installing studded tires. Skid and traction capabilities of studded snow tires on wet or dry surfaces may be poorer than that of non-studded snow tires.
CHANGING WHEELS AND TIRES Tire rotation NISSAN recommends rotating the tires every 7,500 miles (12,000 km) . See “Flat tire” in the “In case of emer- gency” section of this manual for tire re- placing procedures. As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque with a torque wrench.
● 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 ob- vious.
● Do not install a damaged or deformed wheel or tire even if it has been re- paired. Such wheels or tires could have structural damage and could fail with- out warning.
● Tire tread of the TEMPORAR Y USE ONL Y spare tire will wear at a faster rate than the standard tire. Replace the spare tire as soon as the tread wear indicators appear. ● Do not use the spare tire on other vehicles. ● Do not use more than one spare tire at the same time.

WARNING ● It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area inside a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seri- ously injured or killed. ● Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
T o get “the combined weight of occu- pants and cargo” , add the weight of all occupants, then add the total luggage weight. Examples are shown in the follow- ing illustration.
Steps for determining correct load limit 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
● Overloading not only can shorten the life of your vehicle and the tire, but can also cause unsafe vehicle handling and longer brak - ing distances. This may cause a premature tire failure which could result in a serious accident and personal injury.
The Gross Combined W eight Rating (GCWR) equals the combined weight of the towing vehicle (including passengers and cargo) plus the total trailer load. T owing loads greater than these or using improper towing equipment could ad- versely affect vehicle handling, braking and per- formance.
Maximum Gross V ehicle W eight (GVW)/Maximum Gross Axle W eight (GA W) The GVW of the towing vehicle must not exceed the Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) shown on the F .
4,203 lb. (1906 kg) GVWR – 4,103 lb. (1861 kg) GVW = 100 lb. (45 kg) Available for tongue weight 1,000 lb. (454 kg) Capacity available for towing 100 lb.
● The threaded shank of the hitch ball must be long enough to be properly secured to the ball mount. There should be at least 2 threads showing beyond the lock washer and nut. Ball mount The hitch ball is attached to the ball mount and the ball mount is inserted into the hitch receiver.
T railer lights CAUTION When splicing into the vehicle electrical system, a commercially available power- type module/converter must be used to provide power for all trailer lighting.
● When backing up, hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand. Move your hand in the direction in which you want the trailer to go. Make small corrections and back up slowly . If possible, have someone guide you when you are backing up. Always block the wheels on both vehicle and trailer when parking.
2. When the trailer sway stops, gently apply the brakes and pull to the side of the road in a safe area. 3. T ry to rearrange the trailer load so it is bal- anced as described earlier in this section. ● Be careful when passing other vehicles. Passing while towing a trailer requires con- siderably more distance than normal pass- ing.
Manual T ransmission ● Always tow with the manual transmission in Neutral. ● After towing 500 miles (805 km) , start and idle the engine with the transmission in Neu- tral for two minutes. Failure to idle the engine after every 500 miles (805 km) of towing may cause damage to internal transmission parts.
WARNING The temperature grade for this tire is es- tablished for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive loading, ei- ther separately or in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible tire failure.
Due to legal requirements in some states and Canadian Provinces, your vehicle may be re- quired to be in what is called the “ready condi- tion” for an Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test of the emission control system. The vehicle is set to the “ready condition” when it is driven through certain driving patterns.
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Re- corder (EDR) . The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa- tions, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understand- ing how a vehicle’s systems performed.
