sion model only)


3. Adjust the driver(cid:146)s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired positions by manually operating each adjusting switch. For additional information, see (cid:147)Seats(cid:148) in the (cid:147)Safety(cid:151)Seats, seat belts and supplemen- tal restraint system(cid:148) section and (cid:147)Tilting tele- scopic steering column(cid:148) and (cid:147)Outside mir- rors(cid:148) earlier in this section. During this step, do not turn the ignition to any positions other than ON.


4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at least 1 second. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come on and stay on for approxi- mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch. After the indicator light goes off, the se- lected positions are stored in the selected memory (1 or 2).


If memory is stored in the same memory switch, the previous memory will be deleted.


LPD0197


MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION Two positions for the driver(cid:146)s seat, steering col- umn, and outside mirrors can be stored in the automatic drive positioner memory. Follow these procedures to use the memory system.


1. For vehicles equipped with automatic trans- mission, set the shift selector lever to the P (Park) position.


For vehicles equipped with manual trans- mission, place the shift lever in the N (Neu- tral) position and set the parking brake.


2. Turn the ignition ON.

least 1 second. The driver(cid:146)s seat, steering column and out- side mirrors will move to the memorized po- sition with the indicator light flashing, and then the light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.


ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION (for automatic transmission model) This system is designed so that the driver(cid:146)s seat and steering column will automatically move when the automatic transmission selector lever is in the P (Park) position. This allows the driver to get into and out of the driver(cid:146)s seat more easily. (This feature is not available on manual transmis- sion model.)


The driver(cid:146)s seat will slide backward and the steering wheel will move up: c When the key is removed from the ignition


switch.


c When the driver(cid:146)s door is opened with the


key turned to LOCK.


c When the key is turned from ACC to LOCK with the driver(cid:146)s door open while the auto- matic transmission selector lever is in the P (Park) position.


The driver(cid:146)s seat and steering wheel will return to the previous position: c When the key is inserted into the ignition


switch.


c When the driver(cid:146)s door is closed with the key


turned to LOCK.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER


AUDIO SYSTEM


The air conditioner system in your NISSAN ve- hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant does not harm the earth(cid:146)s ozone layer. Special charging equipment and lubricant is re- quired when servicing your NISSAN air condi- tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause severe damage to your air conditioner system. See (cid:147)Air conditioner system refrigerant and lubricant recommendations(cid:148) in the (cid:147)Techni- cal and consumer information(cid:148) section of this manual. A NISSAN dealer is able to service your (cid:147)environ- mentally friendly(cid:148) air conditioning system.


WARNING


The air conditioner system contains re- frigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air conditioner ser- vice should be done only by an experi- enced technician with proper equipment.


RADIO Turn the ignition key to the ACC or ON position and press the PWR (power)/VOL (volume) knob to turn the radio on. If you listen to the radio with the engine not running, the key should be turned to the ACC position.


Radio reception is affected by station signal strength, distance from radio transmitter, build- ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ- ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality normally are caused by these external influences. Using a cellular phone in or near the ve- hicle may influence radio reception quality. Radio reception Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance ra- dio reception. These circuits are designed to extend reception range, and to enhance the qual- ity 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 char- acteristics are completely normal in a given re- ception area, and do not indicate any malfunction in your NISSAN radio system.


Reception conditions will constantly change be- cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and interference from other ve- hicles can work against ideal reception. De- scribed below are some of the factors that can affect your radio reception. FM RADIO RECEPTION Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 (cid:150) 30
miles (40 (cid:150) 48 km), with monaural (single chan- nel) 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.


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 adjusting the treble control to reduce treble response.


4-20 Display screen, heater, air conditioner and audio systems


Z REVIEW COPY—2005 Maxima (max) Owners Manual—USA_English (nna) 03/07/05—tbrooks X


Multipath reception: Because of the reflective characteristics of FM signals, direct and reflected signals reach the receiver at the same time. The signals may cancel each other, resulting in mo- mentary 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 sub- ject to interference as they travel from transmitter to receiver.


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. SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION 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 satellite radio ON and


the vehicle outside of any metal or large building for satellite radio to receive all of the necessary data. No satellite radio reception is available and (cid:147)NO SAT(cid:148) is displayed when the SAT button is pressed unless optional satellite receiver and antenna are installed and an XMT or SIRIUS(cid:153) satellite radio service subscription is active. Satellite radio performance may be affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite radio signal. If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite antenna.

c Do not use the following CDs as they may cause the CD player to malfunc- tion: c 3.1 in (8 cm) discs with an adapter c CDs that are not round c CDs with a paper label c CDs that are warped, scratched, or


have abnormal edges


c Cassette tapes should be removed from the player when not in use. Store cassettes in their protective cases and away from direct sunlight, heat, dust, moisture and magnetic sources.


c Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed. The use of de- formed cassettes may cause the cas- sette to jam in the player.


c Do not use cassettes with labels which are peeling and loose. If used, the label could jam in the player.


c If a cassette has loose tape, insert a pencil through one of the cassette hubs and rewind the tape firmly around the hubs. Loose tape may cause tape jamming and wavering sound quality. c Over a period of time, the playback head, capstan and pinch roller may col- lect a tape coating residue as the tape is played. This residue accumulation can cause weak or wavering sound, and should be removed periodically with a head cleaning tape. If the resi- due is not removed periodically, the player may need to be disassembled for cleaning.


Compact disc (CD) player c Only use high quality 4.7 inches (12 cm) round discs that have the (cid:147)COMPACT disc DIGITAL AUDIO(cid:148) logo on the disc or packaging.


c During cold weather or rainy days, the player may malfunction due to the hu- midity. If this occurs, remove the CD and dehumidify or ventilate the player completely.


c The player may skip while driving on


rough roads.


c The CD player sometimes cannot func- tion when the compartment tempera- ture is extremely high. Decrease the temperature before use.


c Do not expose the CD to direct sun-


light.


c CDs that are in poor condition or are dirty, scratched or covered with finger- prints may not work properly.


c The following CDs may not work prop-


erly: c Copy control compact discs (CCCD) c Recordable compact discs (CD-R) c Rewritable compact discs (CD-RW)
