tor which must be used when install- ing a child restraint.
쐌 Failure to use the retractor’s locking mode may result in the child restraint not being properly secured. The child restraint could tip over or otherwise be unsecured and cause injury to the child in a sudden stop or collision.
INSTALLATION ON FRONT PASSENGER SEAT
WARNING
쐌 Never install a rear facing child re- straint in the front passenger seat. Supplemental front air bags inflate with great force. A rear facing child restraint could be struck by the front air bag in a crash and could seriously injure or kill your child.
SSS0129
쐌 NISSAN recommends that child re- straints be installed in the rear seat. However, if you must install a front facing child restraint in the front pas- senger seat, move the passenger seat to the rearmost position.
쐌 A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat.

2. Route the seat belt tongue through the child restraint and insert it into the buckle until you hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure to follow the child restraint manufac- turer’s instructions for belt routing.
3. Pull on the shoulder belt until all of the belt is fully extended. At this time, the belt retractor is in the automatic locking mode (child re- straint mode). It reverts back to emergency locking mode when the belt is fully retracted.
Front facing If you must install a child restraint in the front seat, follow these steps: 1. Position the child restraint on the front pas- senger seat. It should be placed in a front facing direction only. Move the seat to the rear most position. Always follow the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions. Child restraints for infants must be used in the rear facing direction and therefore must not be used in the front seat.

4. Allow the belt to retract. Pull up on the belt to
remove any slack in the belt.
5. Before placing the child in the child restraint, use force to tilt the child restraint from side to side, and tug it forward to make sure that it is securely held in place.
6. Check that the retractor is in the automatic locking mode by trying to pull more belt out of the retractor. If you cannot pull any more belt webbing out of the retractor, the belt is in the automatic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure that the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the lap belt is not locked, repeat steps 3 through 6. After the child restraint is removed and the seat belt is allowed to wind back into the retractor,

OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY Push the switch when the ignition key is in the ACC or ON position. The outside temperature will be displayed in °F. 쐌 Selecting the indication range
Push the switch to change from °F to °C.
쐌 If the outside temperature drops below the
freezing point, the display indicates ICE.
쐌 When the outside temperature is be- tween 130°F (55°C) and 158°F (70°C), the display shows 130°F (55°C).
쐌 When the outside temperature is lower than −20°F (−30°C) or higher than 158°F the display shows only - - - (70°C), though it is operating. This is not a malfunction.
쐌 The outside temperature sensor is lo- cated in front of the radiator. The sensor may be affected by road or engine heat, wind direction and other driving condi- tions. The display may differ from the actual outside temperature or the tem- perature displayed on various signs or billboards.

sible. Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could result in serious personal injury. Check the tire pressure for all four wheels and adjust the pressure to the COLD tire pressure shown on the tire placard. If the light still comes on while driving after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as possible.
쐌 When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, the low tire pres- sure warning system will not func- tion. Contact your NISSAN dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/or system resetting.
CAUTION

If lamp comes on steady or blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate a potential emission control mal- function. The Malfunction indicator lamp may also come on steady if the fuel filler cap is loose or missing, or if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is installed and closed tightly, and that the vehicle has at least 3 US gallons (14 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank. After a few driving trips, the lamp should turn off if no other potential emission control system malfunction exists. Operation
The Malfunction indicator lamp will come on in one of two ways: 쐌 Malfunction indicator lamp on steady — An emission control system malfunction has been detected. Check the fuel filler cap.

쐌 Malfunction indicator lamp blinking — An engine misfire has been detected which may damage the emission control system. To re- duce or avoid emission control system dam- age:
* do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH (72
km/h).
* avoid hard acceleration or deceleration. * avoid steep uphill grades. * if possible, reduce the amount of cargo
being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator lamp may stop blinking and come on steady.
Have the vehicle inspected by an authorized NISSAN dealer. You do not need to have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without having the emission control system checked and repaired as necessary could lead to poor driveability, reduced fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.
Overdrive off indicator light (Automatic transmission models only)
This light comes on during driving when the overdrive switch is pressed to prevent overdrive operation.
The O/D OFF indicator light comes on for two seconds each time the ignition key is turned ON. This shows the light is functioning properly.
If the O/D OFF indicator light blinks for ap-
proximately 8 seconds after coming on for 2

transmission and repair it if necessary.
The automatic transmission is equipped with an electronic Fail-Safe mode. This system allows the vehicle to be driven even in the event of damage to the electrical circuits. If this occurs, the gears automatically engage and lock into 3rd gear. See “Driving the vehicle” in the “5. Starting and driving” section for failsafe before visiting your NISSAN dealer.
Slip indicator light (if so equipped)
This indicator will blink when the VDC system is operating, thus alerting the driver to the fact that the road surface is slippery and the vehicle is nearing its traction limits.
Transfer 4LO position indicator light (
model)
The light should turn off within 1 second after
turning the ignition switch to ON.
This light comes on when the 4WD shift switch
is set in the 4LO position with ignition key in the
ON position.
If the 4WD shift switch is set in the 4LO position
and the light blinks, stop the vehicle, drive slowly
forward and the light will turn on.
When you shift between 4H and 4LO, stop the
vehicle, move the automatic transmission selec-

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM The Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System will not allow the engine to start without the use of the registered Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for ex- ample, when interference is caused by another Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key, an au- tomated toll road device or automated payment device on the key ring), restart the engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately 10 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference) separate from the registered Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, NISSAN recommends placing the registered Nissan Ve- hicle Immobilizer System key on a separate key ring to avoid interference from other devices. 2-18 Instruments and controls
