WARNING


. Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain conditions. You could be burned or seriously injured if it is misused or mishandled. Always stop engine and do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks near the vehicle when refueling.


. Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automatically. Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel spray and possibly a fire.


. Use only an original equipment type fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a built-in safety valve needed for proper operation of the fuel system and emission control sys- tem. An incorrect cap can result in a serious malfunction and possible injury. It could also cause the mal- function indicator light to come on.

REARVIEW MONITOR (if so equipped)


When the selector lever is shifted into the R (Reverse) position, the monitor display shows the view to the rear of the vehicle.


The system is designed as an aid to the driver in detecting large stationary objects to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The system will not detect small objects below the bumper and may not detect objects close to the bumper or on the ground.


WARNING


The rear view camera is a conve- nience but it is not a substitute for proper backing up. Always turn and check that it is safe to do so before backing up. Always back up slowly. . Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor differ from actual distance because a wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite than when viewed in the rear view 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 rear view


camera.


. When washing the vehicle with high-pressure water, be sure not to spray it around the camera. Other- wise, water may enter the camera unit causing water condensation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric 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.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SCREEN To adjust the Brightness and Contrast of the RearView Monitor, push the SETUP button until the desired mode is displayed with the RearView Monitor on, and turn the TUNE control dial to adjust the brightness and contrast of the screen to the preferred level.


OPERATING TIPS . When the selector lever is shifted to the R (Reverse) position, the monitor screen auto- matically changes to the RearView Monitor mode. However, the radio can be heard.


It may take some time until the RearView Monitor or the normal screen is displayed after the selector lever has been shifted to R from another position or to another position from R. Objects may be distorted momenta- rily until the RearView Monitor screen is displayed completely.


. When the temperature is extremely high or the screen may not clearly display


low, objects. This is not a malfunction.


. When strong light directly enters the cam- era, objects may not be displayed clearly. This is not a malfunction.


. Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the


screen. This is due to strong reflected light from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.


The screen may flicker under fluorescent light. This is not a malfunction.


The colors of objects on the RearView Monitor may differ somewhat from those of the actual object.


. Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark place or at night. This is not a malfunction.


If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera, the RearView Monitor may not clearly dis- play objects. Clean the camera.


. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean the camera. This will cause discolora- tion. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth dampened with diluted mild cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry cloth.


. Do not damage the camera as the monitor


screen may be adversely affected.


. Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened with mild detergent diluted with water.

OPERATING TIPS . When the engine coolant temperature and outside air temperature are low, the air flow from the foot outlets may not operate for a maximum of 150 seconds. This is not a malfunction. After the coolant temperature warms up, air will flow normally from the foot outlets.


The automatic air conditioner is equipped with sensors as illustrated. The sensors *A and *B on the instrument panel help maintain a constant temperature. Do not put anything on or around these sensors.


IN-CABIN MICROFILTER The air conditioning system is equipped with an in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates efficiently, replace the filter according to the specified maintenance log shown in the NISSAN Service and Maintenance Guide. To replace the filter, contact a NISSAN dealer.


The filter should be replaced if the air flow decreases significantly or if windows fog up easily when operating the heater or air conditioning system.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER The air conditioner system in your NISSAN is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone layer. Special char- ging equipment and lubricant are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause severe damage to your air conditioner system. (See “CAPACITIES AND RECOMMENDED FUEL/LUBRICANTS” in the “9. Technical and consumer information” section for air conditioner system refrigerant and lubricant recommenda- tions.)


A NISSAN dealer will be able to service your environmentally friendly air conditioner system.


AUDIO SYSTEM


AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS Radio Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position and push the PWR (power/VOL (vo- lume) control to turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio with the engine not running, the ignition switch should be placed in the ACC position.


Radio reception is affected by station signal strength, distance from radio transmitter, build- ings, bridges, mountains and other external influences. Intermittent changes in reception quality normally are caused by these external influences.


Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle may influence radio reception quality.


WARNING


Radio reception:


The system contains refrigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air conditioner service should be done only by an experienced technician with the proper equipment.


Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance radio reception. These circuits are designed to extend reception range, and to enhance the quality of that reception.


However there are some general characteristics of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even when the finest equipment is used. These characteristics are completely normal in a given reception area, and do not indicate any mal-

function in your NISSAN radio system.


Reception conditions will constantly change because of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and interference from other vehicles can work against reception. Described below are some of the factors that can affect your radio reception.

Some cellular phones or other devices may cause interference or a buzzing noise to come from the audio system speakers. Storing the device in a different location may reduce or eliminate the noise.


Model "Z12-D" EDITED: 2010/ 9/ 27

Satellite radio reception (if so equipped):


When the satellite radio is first installed or the battery has been replaced, the satellite radio may not work properly. This is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with the satellite radio ON and the vehicle away from any metal or large buildings for the satellite radio to receive all of the necessary data. The satellite radio mode requires an active XM® Satellite Radio subscription. The satellite radio is not available in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.


Satellite radio performance may be affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite radio signal.


If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite antenna.


A buildup of ice on the satellite radio antenna can affect satellite radio performance. Remove the ice to restore satellite radio reception.


Static and flutter: During signal interference from buildings, large hills or due to antenna position, usually in conjunction with increased distance from the station transmitter, static or flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by lowering the treble setting to reduce the treble response.


Multipath reception: Because of the reflective characteristics of FM signals, direct and re- flected signals reach the receiver at the same time. The signals may cancel each other, resulting in momentary flutter or loss of sound.


AM radio reception:


AM signals, because of their low frequency, can bend around objects and skip along the ground. In addition, the signals can be bounced off the ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of these characteristics. AM signals are also subject from transmitter to receiver.


to interference as they travel


Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing through freeway underpasses or in areas with many tall buildings. It can also occur for several seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in areas where no obstacles exist.


Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.

FM radio reception:


Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30
miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single channel) FM having slightly more range than stereo FM. External influences may sometimes interfere with FM station reception even if the FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance between the transmitter and receiver. FM signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same characteristics as light. For example they will reflect off objects.


Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade and/or drift.
