FLEXIBLE SEATING WARNING ● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the rear seats when they are in the fold-down position. In a collision, people riding in these areas without proper restraints are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
䊊 2 Once the seatback is released, it will enable you to fold the front passenger seatback flat over the seat cushion. 3. T o return the front passenger’s seat to a seating position, lift up on the seatback and push it up to an upright position. Then pull up on the recline lever and lean the seatback to a proper seating position.
䊊 1 Disconnect and secure the center seat belt and tongues into the retractor base. See “Stowing the center seat belt” later in this section. Then properly stow the outboard seat belts in the seat belt hooks before fold- ing down the rear seats.
䊊 4 T o return the bench seats to a seating posi- tion, reverse this process. Raise the seat- backs to an upright position. Make sure to hold the seat belts above the seat cushion, then push the seat cush- ion down into place.
● Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could cause personal injury. ● When returning the seatbacks to the upright position, be certain they are completely secured.
WARNING ● Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all times. Children should be properly re- strained in the rear seat and, if appro- priate, in a child restraint. WARNING ● The seat belt should be properly ad- justed to a snug fit.
WARNING ● Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never put the belt behind your back, under your arm or across your neck. The belt should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder. ● Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NO T THE WAIST .
PREGNANT WOMEN NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug and always position the lap belt as low as possible around the hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest.
䊊 2 Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear and feel the latch engage. ● The retractor is designed to lock dur- ing a sudden stop or on impact. A slow pulling motion permits the seat belt to move and allows you some freedom of movement in the seat.
WARNING When fastening the seat belts, be certain that the seatbacks are completely se- cured in the latched position. If they are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an accident or sudden stop. Unfastening the seat belts 䊊 1 T o unfasten the seat belt, press the button on the buckle.
Center of the rear bench seat The center seat belt has a connector tongue 䊊 1 and a seat belt tongue 䊊 2 . Both the connector tongue and the seat belt tongue must be securely latched for proper seat belt operation. WARNING ● Always fasten the connector tongue and the seat belt in the order shown.
Stowing the center seat belt When folding down the rear seat, the rear center seat belt can be retracted into a stowed position as follows: 1. Hold the connector tongue 䊊 1 so that the seat belt does not retract suddenly when the tongue is released from the connector buckle.
Attaching the center seat belt Always be sure the center seat belt connector tongue and connector buckle are attached. Dis- connect only when folding down the rear seat. T o connect the buckle: 䊊 1 Pull out the seat belt tongue from the retrac- tor base.
2. Insert the shoulder belt into the back of the comfort guide so that the seat belt lays flat in the guide. Be sure that the comfort guide routes the seat belt properly over the center of your shoulder and across your chest. The belt should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off of your shoulder.
WARNING ● After adjustment, release the adjust- ment button and try to move the shoul- der belt anchor up and down to make sure it is securely fixed in position.
● Periodically check to see that the seat belt and the metal components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors work properly . If loose parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage on the webbing is found, the entire seat belt as- sembly should be replaced.
INFANTS Infants up to at least 1 year old should be placed in a rear-facing child restraint. NISSAN recom- mends that infants be placed in child restraints that comply with Federal Motor V ehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor V ehicle Safety Standards.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RESTRAINTS WARNING ● Failure to follow the warnings and in- structions for proper use and installa- tion of child restraints could result in serious injury or death of a child or other passengers in a sudden stop or collision: – The child restraint must be used and installed properly.
– Child restraint anchor points are de- signed to withstand loads from child restraints that are properly fitted. – Never use the anchor points for adult seat belts or harnesses. – A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat.
LA T CH (Lower Anchors and T ethers for CHildren) SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with special anchor points that are used with LA T CH (Lower Anchors and T ethers for CHildren) system compatible child restraints. This system may also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible system.
LA T CH lower anchor location The LA T CH lower anchors are located at the rear of the seat cushion near the seatback. A label is attached to the seatback to help you locate the LA T CH lower anchors.
T op tether anchor WARNING Do not allow cargo to contact the top tether strap when it is attached to the top tether anchor. Properly secure the cargo so it does not contact the top tether strap. Cargo that is not properly secured or cargo that contacts the top tether strap may damage it during a collision.
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach- ments to the LA T CH lower anchors. Check to make sure the LA T CH attachment is prop- erly attached to the lower anchors. 3. For child restraints that are equipped with webbing-mounted attachments, remove any additional slack from the anchor attach- ments.
4. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it. Push it from side to side while holding the child restraint near the LA T CH attachment path. The child re- straint should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from side to side.
WARNING ● The three-point seat belt with Auto- matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must be used when installing a child restraint. Failure to use the ALR mode will result in the child restraint not being properly secured. The restraint could tip over or be loose and cause injury to a child in a sudden stop or collision.
3. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode) . It reverts to the Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode when the seat belt is fully retracted.
6. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it. Push it from side to side while holding the child restraint near the seat belt path. The child restraint should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from side to side. T ry to tug it forward and check to see if the belt holds the restraint in place.
3. The back of the child restraint should be secured against the vehicle seatback. If necessary , adjust or remove the headrest to obtain the correct child restraint fit. If the headrest is removed, store it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall the headrest when the child restraint is removed.
6. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove any slack. 7. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use.
3. 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 manufacturer’s in- structions for belt routing.
6. Remove any additional slack from the seat belt; press downward and rearward firmly in the center of the child restraint with your knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while pulling up on the seat belt. 7. After attaching the child restraint, test it be- fore you place the child in it.
10. If the child restraint is installed in the front passenger seat, place the ignition switch in the ON position. The front passenger air bag status light should illuminate. If this light is not illuminated see, ⬙ Front passenger air bag and status light ⬙ in this section.
Booster seats of various sizes are offered by several manufacturers. When selecting any booster seat, keep the following points in mind: ● Choose only a booster seat with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor V ehicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor V ehicle Safety Standard 213.
Booster seat installation CAUTION Do not use the lap/shoulder belt in the Automatic Locking Retractor mode when using a booster seat with the seat belts. Refer to all W arnings and Cautions in the “Child Safety” , “Child Restraint” and “Booster Seats” sections before installing a child restraint.
If the seating position does not have an adjustable head restraint and it is interfering with the proper booster seat fit, try another seating position or a different booster seat. 4. P osition the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air bag system: This system can help cushion the impact force to the head of occupants in front and rear outboard seating positions in certain side impact or rollover collisions.
● The driver and front passenger seat belt buckles are equipped with sensors that detect if the seat belts are fastened. The Advanced Air Bag System monitors the severity of a collision and seat belt us- age then inflates the air bags. Failure to properly wear seat belts can increase the risk or severity of injury in an accident.
WARNING ● Never let children ride unrestrained or extend their hands or face out of the window. Do not attempt to hold them in your lap or arms. Some examples of dangerous riding positions are shown in the illustrations.
WARNING ● Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System, never install a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat. An in- flating front air bag could seriously in- jure or kill your child. See “Child re- straints” earlier in this section for details.
WARNING Front seat-mounted side-impact supple- mental air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air bags: ● The side air bags and curtain and roll- over air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a frontal impact, rear im- pact, or lower severity side collision.
WARNING ● The seat belts, the side air bags and curtain and rollover air bags are most effective when you are sitting well back and upright in the seat.

WARNING ● Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assistance of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left alone. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the vehicle.
CAUTION ● Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded gasoline will seriously re- duce the three-way catalyst’s ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants. ● Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc- tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat.
● The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) . Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire while driving) . ● The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure of all 4 tires are adjusted.
Some examples are: – Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies are near the vehicle. – If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle. – If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near the vehicle.
OFF-ROAD RECOVERY While driving, the right side or left side wheels may unintentionally leave the road surface. If this occurs, maintain control of the vehicle by follow- ing the procedure below . Please note that this procedure is only a general guide.
DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND DRIVING WARNING Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream re- duces coordination, delays reaction time and impairs judgement. Driving after drinking alcohol increases the likelihood of being involved in an accident injuring yourself and others.
● Unsecured cargo can be thrown around when driving over rough terrain. Prop- erly secure all cargo so it will not be thrown forward and cause injury to you or your passengers. ● T o avoid raising the center of gravity ex- cessively, do not exceed the rated capac- ity of the roof rack/gear bin (if so equipped) and evenly distribute the load.
WARNING ● Never remove the ignition key or place the ignition switch in the LOCK position while driving. The steering wheel will lock (for models with a steering lock mechanism) . This may cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle and could result in serious vehicle damage or per- sonal injury.
There is an OFF position between the LOCK and ACC positions. The OFF position is indicated by a “1” on the ignition switch. When the ignition is in the OFF position, the steering wheel is not locked (for mod- els with a steering lock mechanism) .
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM The NISSAN V ehicle Immobilizer system will not allow the engine to start without the use of the registered key . If the engine fails to start using a registered key .
● If the engine is very hard to start in ex- tremely cold weather or when restarting, depress the accelerator pedal a little (ap- proximately 1/3 to the floor) and hold it and then crank the engine. Release the key and the accelerator pedal when the engine starts.
T o move the shift selector: : Push the button while depressing the brake pedal : Push the button to shift : Shift without depressing brake pedal Shifting After starting the engine, fully depress the brake pedal and move the shift selector out of the P (Park) position.
D (Drive) : Use this position for all normal forward driving. 3 (Third gear) : Use this position for driving up and down long slopes where engine braking would be advanta- geous. Do not downshift into the 3 position at speeds over the following and do not exceed the follow- ing speeds in the 3 position.
T o push the shift lock release, complete the fol- lowing procedure: 1. Place the ignition switch in the L OCK posi- tion and remove the key . 2. Apply the parking brake. 3. Remove the shift lock release cover as shown. 4. Insert a small screwdriver in the shift lock release slot and push down.
OFF: For driving up and down long slopes where engine braking is nec- essary push the Overdrive switch once. The O/D OFF indicator light in the instrument panel comes on at this time. When cruising at a low speed or climbing a gentle slope, you may feel uncomfortable shift shocks as the transmission shifts into and out of Overdrive repeatedly .
T o back up depress the shift selector and then move it to the R (Reverse) position after stopping the vehicle completely . If it is difficult to move the shift selector into R (Reverse) or 1 (First) , shift into N (Neutral) , then release the clutch pedal.
WARNING ● Be sure the parking brake is fully re- leased before driving. Failure to do so can cause brake failure and lead to an accident. ● Do not release the parking brake from outside the vehicle. ● Do not use the shift selector in place of the parking brake.
● The SET indicator light may blink when the cruise control main switch is turned ON while pushing the ACCEL/RES, COAST/SET , or CANCEL switch (located on the steering wheel) . T o properly set the cruise control system, use the following pro- cedures.
T o reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of the following three methods. ● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and release the COAST/SET switch. ● Push and hold the ACCEL/RES switch. When the vehicle attains the speed you de- sire, release the switch.
● When cruising at highway speeds, it is more economical to use the air conditioner and leave the windows closed to reduce drag. ● For vehicles equipped with , use 4H or 4L position only when necessary . Four- wheel drive operation lowers fuel economy .
T RANSFER CASE SHIFTING PROCEDURES The part time 4WD system provides 3 positions (2WD, 4H and 4L O) , so you can select the desired drive mode according to the driving con- ditions.
*1: Before moving the shift selector from neutral, wait until the 4L O indicator light stays on steady. This indicates that the 4WD shift procedure is completed and the transfer gear is correctly set in the 4L O position.
The transfer case 4WD shift switch is used to select either 2WD or 4WD depending on the driving conditions. There are three types of drive modes available, 2WD, 4H and 4L O. The 4WD shift switch electronically controls the transfer case operation. Rotate the switch to move between each mode, 2WD, 4H and 4L O.
When the vehicle is stuck, ● Set the 4WD shift switch to 4H or 4L O. ● Use the Electronic Locking Rear Differential (E-Lock) system (if so equipped) . T urn the switch ON while the vehicle is stationary and apply the throttle to try to free the vehicle.
4WD shift indicator light The 4WD shift indicator light is located in the odometer display . The light should turn off within 1 second after turning the ignition switch to the ON position. While the engine is running, the 4WD shift indi- cator light will illuminate the position selected by the 4WD shift switch.
● When the warning light comes on, the 2WD mode may be engaged even if the 4WD shift switch is in 4H . Be especially careful when driving. If corresponding parts are malfunctioning, the 4WD mode will not be engaged even if the 4WD shift switch is shifted.
WARNING ● Never leave the E-Lock system ON when driving on paved or hard-surfaced roads. T urning the vehicle may result in the rear wheels slipping and result in an accident and personal injury. After us- ing the E-Lock system to free the ve- hicle, turn the system OFF .
WARNING ● Do not stop or park the vehicle over flammable materials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags. They may ignite and cause a fire. ● Safe parking procedures require that both the parking brake be set and the transmission placed into P (Park) for automatic transmission models or in an appropriate gear for manual transmis- sion models.
The power assisted steering uses a hydraulic pump, driven by the engine, to assist steering. If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks, you will still have control of the vehicle. However, much greater steering effort is needed, especially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
This procedure is described in the vehicle service manual and can be performed by a NISSAN dealer. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) WARNING ● The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is a sophisticated device, but it cannot pre- vent accidents resulting from careless or dangerous driving techniques.

TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABEL The cold tire pressure is shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. The label is located as shown. AIR CONDITIONER SPECIFICATION LABEL The air conditioner specification label is affixed to the underside of the hood as shown.
WARNING ● It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area inside a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seri- ously injured or killed. ● Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
V EHICLE LOAD CAPACITY Do not exceed the load limit of your ve- hicle shown as “The combined weight of occupants and cargo” on the Tire and Loading Information label. Do not exceed the number of occupants shown as “Seating Capacity” on the Tire and Load- ing Information label.
Steps for determining correct load limit 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4. 6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be trans- ferred to your vehicle.
● The child restraint top tether strap may be damaged by contact with items in the cargo area. Secure any items in the cargo area. Y our child could be seri- ously injured or killed in a collision if the top tether strap is damaged. ● Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the GVWR or the maximum front and rear GAWRs.
2. Insert (at any position) 2 channel tie-down hooks 䊊 A into the channel opening 䊊 B of each channel and slide to the desired posi- tion. 3. Hand tighten each hook until it is securely fixed to the channel.
LOADING TIPS ● The GVW must not exceed GVWR or GA WR as specified on the F .M.V .S.S./C.M.V .S.S. certification label. ● Do not load the front and rear axle to the GA WR. Doing so will exceed the GVWR. WARNING ● Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or shifting.
WARNING Overloading or improper loading of a trailer and its cargo can adversely affect vehicle handling, braking and perfor- mance and may lead to accidents. CAUTION ● Do not tow a trailer or haul a heavy load for the first 500 miles (800 km) . Y our engine, axle or other parts could be damaged.
T emperature conditions can also affect towing. For example, towing a heavy trailer in high outside temperatures on graded roads can affect engine performance and cause overheating. The engine protection mode, which helps reduce the chance of engine damage, could activate and automati- cally decrease engine power.
T owing capacities are calculated assuming a base vehicle with driver and any options required to achieve the rating. Additional passengers, cargo and/or optional equipment, such as the trailer hitch, will add weight to the vehicle and reduce your vehicle’s maximum towing capacity and trailer tongue load.
Remember to keep trailer tongue weight be- tween 10 - 15% of the trailer weight or within the trailer tongue load specification recommended by the trailer manufacturer. If the tongue load becomes excessive, rearrange the cargo to ob- tain the proper tongue load.
WARNING T railer hitch components have specific weight ratings. Y our vehicle may be ca- pable of towing a trailer heavier than the weight rating of the hitch components. Never exceed the weight rating of the hitch components. Doing so can cause serious personal injury or property damage.
WARNING Properly adjust the weight distributing hitch so the rear of the bumper is no higher than the measured reference height when the trailer is attached.
Safety chains Always use suitable safety chains between your vehicle and the trailer. The safety chains should be crossed and should be attached to the hitch, not to the vehicle bumper or axle. Be sure to leave enough slack in the chains to permit turning corners.
Pre-towing tips ● Be certain your vehicle maintains a level position when a loaded and/or unloaded trailer is hitched. Do not drive the vehicle if it has an abnormal nose-up or nose-down condition; check for improper tongue load, overload, worn suspension or other possible causes of either condition.
T o drive away: 1. Start the vehicle. 2. Apply and hold the brake pedal. 3. Shift the transmission into gear. 4. Release the parking brake. 5. Drive slowly until the vehicle and trailer are clear from the blocks. 6. Apply and hold the brake pedal. 7. Have someone retrieve and store the blocks.
● Some states or provinces have specific regulations and speed limits for vehicles that are towing trailers. Obey the local speed limits. ● Check your hitch, trailer wiring harness con- nections, and trailer wheel lug nuts after 50 miles (80 km) of travel and at every break.
DO T (Department of T ransportation) Quality Grades: All passenger car tires must conform to federal safety requirements in addition to these grades. Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width.
Y our NISSAN vehicle is covered by the following emission warranties: For USA 1. Emission Defects W arranty 2. Emissions Performance W arranty Details of this warranty may be found with other vehicle warranties in your W arranty Information Booklet which comes with your NISSAN vehicle.
WARNING Always drive the vehicle in a safe and prudent manner according to traffic con- ditions and obey all traffic laws. 1. Start the engine when the engine coolant temperature gauge needle points to C. Al- low the engine to idle until the gauge needle points between the C and H (normal oper- ating temperature) .
T o read data recorded by an EDR, special equip- ment is required and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manu- facturer and NISSAN dealer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equip- ment, can read the information if they have ac- cess to the vehicle or the EDR.
Insist on the use of genuine NISSAN collision parts! If you want your vehicle to be restored using parts made to NISSAN’s original exacting specifica- tions – if you want to help it to last and hold its resale value, the solution is simple.
