INSTALLATION ON FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OUTBOARD POSITION


WARNING


c 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 supplemental front air bag in a crash and could seri- ously injure or kill your child.

c The three-point seat belt in your vehicle is equipped with an automatic locking mode retractor which must be used when installing a child restraint.


c Failure to use the retractor(cid:146)s locking mode will result in the child restraint not being properly secured. The re- straint could tip over or otherwise be unsecured and cause injury to the child in a sudden stop or collision. Also, it can change the operation of the front pas- senger air bag. See (cid:147)Front passenger air bag and status light(cid:148) earlier in this section.


Front Facing (cid:151) step 1


WRS0379


If you must install a child restraint in the right 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 rearmost position. Adjust the head restraint to its highest position. Always follow the child restraint manufacturer(cid:146)s in- structions. Child restraints for infants must be used in the rear-facing direc- tion and therefore must not be used in the front seat.


WRS0378


c NISSAN recommends that child re- straints be installed in the rear seat. However, if you must install a forward- facing child restraint in the right front passenger seat, move the passenger seat to the rearmost position. Also, be sure the front passenger air bag status light is illuminated to indicate the pas- senger air bag is OFF. See (cid:147)Front pas- senger air bag and status light(cid:148) earlier in this section for details.


c A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passen- ger 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 manu- facturer(cid:146)s instructions for belt routing.


3. Pull on the shoulder belt until all of the belt is fully extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor is in the automatic locking mode (child restraint mode). It reverts to emer- gency locking mode when the seat belt is fully retracted.


4. Allow the seat belt to retract slightly. Pull up on the shoulder belt to remove any slack in the belt.

Zone variation change procedure The difference between magnetic north and geo- graphical north is known as variance. In some areas, this difference can sometimes be great enough to cause false compass readings. Follow these instructions to set the variance for your particular location if this happens:


1. Press and hold the


button for about 8
seconds. The current zone number will ap- pear in the display.


2. Find your current location on the zone map. Refer to the illustration. Record the zone number.


3. Press and hold the


button until the new zone number appears in the display. After you stop pressing the switch in, the display will show a compass direction within a few seconds.


Inaccurate compass direction


1. With the display turned on, push the


button about 8 seconds, until the zone se- lection comes up (a number will be dis- played in the mirror compass window).


2. Toggle until correct zone is found and re-


lease button.

c If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon after repeated adjustment, have the compass checked at an authorized dealer.


c The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tunnels or while driving up or down a steep hill. (The compass returns to the correct compass point when the ve- hicle moves to an area where the geomag- netism is stabilized.)


CAUTION


c Do not install a ski rack, antenna, etc., which are attached to the vehicle by means of a magnet. They affect the op- eration of the compass.


c When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as it may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.

Anti-lock brake warning light


If the light comes on while the engine is running, it may indicate the anti-lock brake system is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. Turn off the engine, and start it again by slowly turning the ignition key (quickly do- ing so may cause the ABS light to stay on when there is nothing wrong). If the light stays on, have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.


If an abnormality occurs in the system, the anti- lock function ceases, but the regular braking system continues to operate. If the light comes on while you are driving, contact a NISSAN dealer for repair.


The ABS system will be disabled and the ABS light will illuminate when the electronic locking rear differential (E-Lock) system switch (if so equipped) is turned on and the E-Lock system is engaged. If the E-Lock system disengages or the switch is turned off, the ABS system will be enabled and the ABS light will turn off.


Automatic transmission check warning light


When the ignition switch is turned ON, the light comes on for about 2 seconds. If the light blinks for approximately 8 seconds, it may indicate the automatic transmission system is not functioning properly. Have your NISSAN dealer check and repair the transmission, if necessary.

Low fuel warning light


This light comes on when the fuel level in the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve- nient, preferably before the fuel gauge reaches E (Empty). There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches E (Empty).


Low tire pressure warning light


After the ignition switch is turned ON, this light comes on for about 1 second and turns off.


This light warns of low tire pressure.


NISSAN(cid:146)s low tire pressure warning system is a tire pressure monitoring system. It monitors tire pressure of all tires except the spare. When the tire pressure monitoring system warning light is lit, one or more of your tires is significantly under- inflated. You should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure as indicated on the vehicle(cid:146)s tire infor- mation placard. Driving on a significantly under- inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle(cid:146)s handling and stopping ability. Each tire, including the spare, should be checked monthly when cold and set to the recommended inflation pressure as specified in the vehicle plac- ard and owner(cid:146)s manual.


The recommended inflation pressure may also be found on the Tire and Loading Information Label. Low tire pressure warning:


If the vehicle is being driven with very low tire pressure (lower than 28 psi, 193 kPa), the light will illuminate and the chime will sound for about 10 seconds. If you select the tire pressure infor- mation in the display, the FLAT TIRE warning message will be displayed.

WARNING


c If the light does not come on with the key switch turned ON, have the vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.


c If the light comes on while driving, avoid sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon as possible. 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 tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If the light still comes on while driving after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you have a flat tire, re- place it with a spare tire as soon as possible.


2-16 Instruments and controls


c When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated and the low tire pressure warning system will not function. Con- tact your NISSAN dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/or system resetting.


CAUTION


c The low tire pressure warning system is not a substitute for the regular tire pres- sure check. Be sure to check the tire pressure regularly.


c If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of less than 20 MPH (32 km/h), the low tire pressure warning system may not operate correctly.


c Be sure to install the specified size of


tires to the 4 wheels correctly.
