2002 Nissan Pathfinder Owners Manual

Child safety locking helps prevent doors from being opened accidentally, especially when small children are in the vehicle. When the lever is in the lock position, the rear door can be opened only from the outside.

Z 01.9.21/R50-D/V5 X

REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM It is possible to lock/unlock all doors and activate the panic alarm by using the keyfob from outside the vehicle. Before locking the doors, make sure the key is not left in the vehicle. The keyfob can operate at a distance of ap- proximately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The effective distance depends upon the condi- tions around the vehicle.) As many as four keyfobs can be used with one vehicle. For information concerning the pur- chase and use of additional keyfobs, contact your NISSAN dealer. The keyfob will not function when: I the battery is dead, I the distance between the vehicle and the

keyfob is over 33 ft (10 m).

The panic alarm will not activate when the key is in the ignition switch.

CAUTION

The following conditions or occurrences will damage the keyfob. I Do not allow the keyfob to become

wet.

I Do not drop the keyfob. I Do not strike the keyfob sharply

against another object.

I Do not place the keyfob for an ex- tended period in an area where tem- peratures exceed 140°F (60°C).

If a keyfob is lost or stolen, NISSAN recommends erasing the ID code of that controller. This will prevent the keyfob from unauthorized use to unlock the vehicle. For information regarding the erasing procedure, please contact an authorized NISSAN dealer.

HOW TO USE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM Setting hazard indicator and horn mode This vehicle is set in hazard indicator and horn mode when you first receive the vehicle.

In hazard indicator and horn mode, when the LOCK button is pushed, the hazard indicator flashes twice and the horn chirps once. When

the UNLOCK button is pushed, the hazard indicator flashes once. If hazard indicator and horn mode is not nec- essary, you can switch to hazard indicator only mode by following the switching procedure below. In hazard indicator only mode, when the LOCK button is pushed, the hazard indicator flashes twice. When the UNLOCK button is pushed, neither the hazard indicator nor the horn oper- ates. (Switching procedure) Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK but- tons on the keyfob simultaneously for at least 2 seconds to switch from one mode to the other. When pushing the buttons to set hazard indi- cator only mode, the hazard indicator flashes 3
times. When pushing the buttons to set hazard indi- cator and horn mode, the hazard indicator flashes once and the horn chirps once.

I After parking in the sun, drive for two or three minutes with the windows open to vent hot air from the passenger compart- ment. Then, close the windows. This will allow the air conditioner to cool the interior more quickly.

I The air conditioning system should be operated for about ten minutes at least once a month. This helps prevent dam- age to the system due to lack of lubrica- tion.

I If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the hot position, turn the air conditioner off. For additional information, see “If your ve- hicle overheats” in the “6. In case of emer- gency” section.

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. However, special charging equipment and lu- bricant are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrig- erants or lubricants will cause severe damage to your air conditioning system. See “Capaci- ties and recommended fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Technical and consumer information” sec- tion for air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant recommendation. Your 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.

AUDIO SYSTEM

Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON and press 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 influences. 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 radio system is equipped with state-of- the-art electronic circuits to enhance radio reception. These circuits are designed to ex- tend reception range, and to enhance the quality of that reception. However there are some general characteris- tics of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect radio reception quality in a moving ve- hicle, even when the finest equipment is used. These characteristics are completely normal in a given reception area, and do not indicate any malfunction in your radio system. Remember that a moving vehicle is not the ideal place to listen to a radio. Because of the movement, reception conditions will constantly

change. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and interference from other vehicles can work against ideal reception. Described below are some of the factors that can affect your radio reception.

SAA0306

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 some- times 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 re- ceiver. 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

are peeling and loose. If used, the label could jam in the player.

I 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 jam- ming and wavering sound quality.

I 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 residue is not removed periodically, the player may need to be disassembled for cleaning.

from a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade and/or drift.

signals are also subject to interference as they travel from transmitter to receiver.

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 counterclockwise to reduce 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. The radio has an FM Diversity reception sys- tem, which employs two antennas if so equipped. One is a rod type antenna; the other is an antenna printed on the window. This system automatically switches to the antenna which is receiving less noise. For additional information, see “Antenna” later in this section. AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low frequency, can bend around objects and skip along the ground. the signals can be bounced off the ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of these characteristics. AM 4-12 Heater, air conditioner and audio systems

In addition,

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

Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights. AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS Cassette player I To maintain good quality

sound, NISSAN recommends using cassette tapes of 60 minutes or shorter in length. I Cassette tapes should be removed from the player when not in use. Store cas- settes in their protective cases and away from direct sunlight, heat, dust, mois- ture and magnetic sources.

I Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed. The use of deformed cassettes may cause the cassette to jam in the player.

I Do not use cassettes with labels which
