highly explosive under certain condi- tions. You could be burned or seri- ously injured if it is misused or mis- handled. Always stop the engine and do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks near the vehicle when refu- eling.

쐌 Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap a third of a turn, and wait for any “hissing sound” to stop to prevent fuel from spraying out and possibly causing personal injury. Then remove the cap.

쐌 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.

쐌 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 system. An in- correct cap can result in a serious It malfunction and possible injury. could also cause the malfunc- tion indicator lamp to come on.

쐌 Do not fill a portable fuel container in the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity can cause an explosion of flammable liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or trailer. To reduce the risk of serious injury or death when filling portable fuel containers: — Always place the container on the

ground when filling.

— Do not use electronic devices

REAR VIEW MONITOR (if so equipped) When the shift lever is shifted into the R (Re- verse) position, the monitor display shows 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

쐌 The rear view camera is a conve- nience but it is not a substitute for proper backing. Always turn and check that it is safe to do so before backing up. Always back up slowly. 쐌 Objects viewed in the rear view moni- tor differ from actual distance be- cause a wide-angle lens is used. Ob- jects in the rear view monitor will appear visually opposite like ones viewed in the inside and outside mir- rors.

쐌 Make sure that the back door is se-

curely closed when backing up.

쐌 Underneath the bumper and the cor- ner areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on the rear view monitor be- cause of its monitoring range limita- tion.

쐌 Do not put anything on the rear view camera. The rear view camera is in- stalled above the license plate.

쐌 When washing the vehicle with high- pressure water, be sure not to spray it around the camera. Otherwise, wa- ter may enter the camera unit caus- ing water condensation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric shock. 쐌 Do not strike the camera. It is a pre- cision instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or cause damage result- ing in a fire or an electric shock.

CAUTION

There is a plastic cover over the camera. Do not scratch the cover when cleaning dirt or snow from it.

To turn the system off Push the OFF button. OPERATING TIPS When the engine coolant temperature and out- side air temperature are low, the air flow from the foot outlets may not operate for a maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction. After the coolant temperature warms up, the air flow from the foot outlets will operate normally.

Fresh air Push the button to draw outside air into the passenger compartment. The indicator light on the button will come on. Automatic intake air control In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be con- the trolled automatically. To manually control intake air, push the air recirculate or fresh air button. To return to the automatic control mode, push the indicator-illuminated but- ton for about 2 seconds. The indicator lights (both air recirculate and fresh air buttons) will flash twice, and then the intake air will be controlled automatically. Air flow control Pushing the MODE manual air button selects the air outlet to:

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER

The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone layer. How- ever, special charging equipment and lubricants are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubri- cants will cause severe damage to your air conditioning system. See “Capacities and rec- ommended fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Technical and consumer information” section for air con- ditioning system refrigerant and lubricant recom- mendations.

A NISSAN dealer will be able to service your environmentally friendly 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 equip- ment.

The sensor on the instrument panel helps main- tain a constant temperature; do not put anything on or around this sensor. 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 intervals listed in your Service and Maintenance Guide. To replace the filter, contact a NISSAN dealer. The filter should be replaced if the air flow

AUDIO SYSTEM

Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON and push the power on switch to turn on the radio. 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 in- fluences. Intermittent changes in reception qual- ity 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 radio system is equipped with state-of-the- art electronic circuits to enhance radio recep- tion. These circuits are designed to extend re- ception range, and to enhance the quality of that reception. However there are some general characteristics of FM, AM and satellite 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
