PRECAUTIONS ON SEA T BEL T USAGE If you are wearing your seat belt properly ad- justed and you are sitting upright and well back in your seat with both feet on the floor, your chances of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the severity of injury may be greatly reduced.
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, NOT 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.
Unfastening the seat belts 䊊 1 T o unfasten the seat belt, press the button on the buckle. The seat belt automatically re- tracts. Checking seat belt operation Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat belt movement by two separate methods: ● When the seat belt is pulled quickly from the retractor.
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.
● If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry cloth. ● Periodically check to see that the seat belt and the metal components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors, work properly .
INF ANTS 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 Vehicle 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) S Y STEM 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.
Installing child restraint LA T CH lower anchor attachments LA T CH compatible child restraints include two rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can be connected to two anchors located at certain seating positions in your vehicle. With this sys- tem, you do not have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the child restraint.
T op tether anchor point locations The child restraint top tether strap must be used when installing the child restraint with the LA T CH lower anchor attachments or seat belts. See “In- stalling top tether strap” later in this section. If you have any questions when installing a top tether strap, consult your NISSAN dealer for details.
3. 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. 4. For child restraints that are equipped with webbing-mounted attachments, remove any additional slack from the anchor attach- ments.
6. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the child restraint is loose, repeat steps 2 through 5. REAR-F ACING CHILD RESTRAINT INST ALLA TION USING THE SEA T BEL TS WARNING The three-point seat belt with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) must be used when installing a child restraint.
Refer to all W arnings and Cautions in the “Child safety” and “Child restraints” sections before in- stalling a child restraint. Follow these steps to install a rear-facing child restraint using the vehicle seat belts in the rear seats: 1.
4. Allow the seat belt to retract. Pull up on the shoulder belt to remove any slack in the belt. 5. Remove any additional slack from the seat belt; press downward and rearward firmly in the center of the child restraint to compress the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while pulling up on the seat belt.
7. Check to make sure that the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 1 through 6. After the child restraint is removed and the seat belt fully retracted, the ALR mode (child restraint mode) is canceled.
3. 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. If the child restraint is equipped with a top tether strap, route the top tether strap and secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point.
5. For child restraints that are equipped with webbing-mounted attachments, remove any additional slack from the anchor attach- ments. Press downward and rearward firmly in the center of the child restraint with your knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while tightening the webbing of the anchor attachments.
Refer to all W arnings and Cautions in the “Child Safety” and “Child Restraint” sections before in- stalling a child restraint. Follow these steps to install a forward-facing child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear seats or in the front passenger seat: 1.
4. 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 Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode when the seat belt is fully retracted.
8. 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.
INST ALLING T OP TETHER STRAP First, secure the child restraint with the LA T CH lower anchors (rear outboard seat positions only) or the seat belt, as applicable. 1. Flip up the anchor cover 䊊 1 from the anchor point which is located directly behind the child seat.
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.
4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips. Be sure to follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in- structions for adjusting the seat belt routing. 5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt toward the retractor to take up extra slack.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supple- mental air bag system: This system can help cushion the impact force to the head of occu- pants in front and rear outboard seating positions in certain side-impact collisions. The curtain air bags are designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted.
● 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 as needed. 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 ● Children may be severely injured or killed when the front air bags, side air bags or curtain air bags inflate if they are not properly restrained.
WARNING Front seat-mounted side-impact supple- mental air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags: ● The side air bags and curtain air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a frontal impact, rear impact, rollover or lower severity side collision.

5 Starting and driving Precautions when starting and driving ................5 - 2 Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide) ..................5 - 2 Three-way catalyst ..............................5 - 2 Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ..........5 - 3 Avoiding collision and rollover .
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.
Additional information: ● The TPMS does not monitor the tire pressure of the spare tire. ● 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) .
● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated, the TPMS will not function and the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute. The light will remain on after 1 minute. Contact your NISSAN dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/or system resetting.
avoid driving when tired. Never drive when under the influence of alcohol or drugs (including pre- scription or over-the-counter drugs which may cause drowsiness) . Always wear your seat belt as outlined in the “Safety – Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system” section of this manual, and also instruct your passengers to do so.
3. When appropriate, slowly release the accel- erator pedal to gradually slow the vehicle. 4. Gradually steer the vehicle to a safe location off the road and away from traffic if possible. 5. Lightly apply the brake pedal to gradually stop the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is pushed without de- pressing the brake pedal (CVT) or the clutch pedal (M/T) , the ignition switch position will illu- minate as follows: Push center ● once to change to ACC. ● two times to change to ON. ● three times to return to OFF .
The battery saver feature will be cancelled if any of the following occur: ● any door is opened. ● shift selector is moved out of the P (Park) . ● ignition switch changes position. ON (Normal operating position) : This position turns on the ignition system and electrical accessories.
NO TE: The Intelligent Key port does not charge the Intelligent Key battery. If you see the low battery indicator, replace the battery as soon as possible. See “Battery replace- ment” in the “Maintenance and do-it- yourself” section. CAUTION ● Never place anything except the Intelli- gent Key in the Intelligent Key port.
1. Apply the parking brake. 2. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) model: Move the shift selector to P (Park) or N (Neutral) . P (Park) is recommended. The starter is designed not to operate if the shift selector is in any of the driving positions.
CONTINUOUSL Y V ARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) (if so equipped) WARNING ● Do not depress the accelerator pedal while shifting from P (Park) or N (Neu- tral) to R (Reverse) , D (Drive) , Ds (Drive Sport) or (M) Manual shift mode. Al- ways depress the brake pedal until shifting is completed.
● Ds (Drive Sport) mode - Move the shift se- lector over from D (Drive) to the left into the manual shift gate. The position indicator in the meter shows a “Ds” .
WARNING Apply the parking brake if the shift selec- tor is in any position while the engine is not running. Failure to do so could cause the vehicle to move unexpectedly or roll away and result in serious personal injury or property damage.
Manual shift mode (if so equipped) When the shift selector is in the Ds (Drive Sport) position, the transmission is ready for the manual shift mode. Shift ranges can be selected manu- ally by moving the shift selector up (+) or down (–) . T o cancel the Ds mode, return shift selector to the D (Drive) position.
● In the manual shift mode, the transmis- sion may shift up automatically to a higher range than selected if the en- gine speed is too high. When the ve- hicle speed decreases, the transmis- sion automatically shifts down and shifts to 1st gear before the vehicle comes to a stop.
Accelerator downshift — in D position — For passing or hill climbing, depress the accel- erator pedal to the floor. This shifts the transmis- sion down into a lower gear, depending on the vehicle speed. High fluid temperature protection mode This transmission has a high fluid temperature protection mode.
Shifting T o change gears or when upshifting or down- shifting, depress the clutch pedal fully , shift into the appropriate gear, then release the clutch slowly and smoothly . T o ensure smooth gear changes, fully depress the clutch pedal before operating the shift selec- tor.
Suggested maximum speed in each gear Downshift to a lower gear if the engine is not running smoothly , or if you need to accelerate. Do not exceed the maximum suggested speed (shown below) in any gear. For level road driving, use the highest gear suggested for that speed.
3. T ype A , firmly depress the parking brake pedal and it will release. T ype B, while pulling up on the parking brake lever slightly, push the button and lower completely 䊊 B . 4. Before driving, be sure the brake warning light goes out. 1. CANCEL switch 2.

T ake your foot off the accelerator pedal. Y our vehicle maintains the set speed. ● T o pass another vehicle, depress the ac- celerator pedal.
CAUTION During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) , follow these recommendations to obtain maximum engine performance and en- sure the future reliability and economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in short- ened engine life and reduced engine performance.
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 CVT models or in an appropriate gear for manual transmission 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.
T o dry the brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe speed while lightly pressing the brake pedal to heat up the brakes. Do this until the brakes return to normal.
Normal operation The ABS operates at speeds abov e3-6M P H( 5 - 10 km/h) . The speed varies according to road conditions. When the ABS senses that 1 or more wheels are close to locking up, the actuator rapidly applies and releases hydraulic pressure. This action is similar to pumping the brakes very quickly .
When the VDC switch is used to turn off the system, the VDC system still operates to prevent one drive wheel from slipping by transferring power to a non slipping drive wheel. The indicator flashes if this occurs. All other VDC functions are off and the indicator will not flash.
FREEING A FROZEN DOOR L OCK T o prevent a door lock from freezing, apply de- icer through the key hole. If the lock becomes frozen, heat the key before inserting it into the key hole or use the remote keyless entry function on the Intelligent Key .
● Whatever the condition, drive with cau- tion. Accelerate and slow down with care. If accelerating or downshifting too fast, the drive wheels will lose even more traction. ● Allow more stopping distance under these conditions. Braking should be started sooner than on dry pavement.

TIRE CHAINS CAUTION Only certain SAE class “S” tire chains can be used on this vehicle. Using the wrong Class “S” chains on this vehicle will cause damage to the vehicle.
CHANGING WHEELS AND TIRES Tire rotation NISSAN recommends rotating the tires every 7,500 miles (12,000 km) . See “Flat tire” in the “In case of emer- gency” section of this manual for tire re- placing procedures. As soon as possible, tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque with a torque wrench.
● The original tires have built-in tread wear indicators. When the wear indicators are visible, the tire(s) should be replaced. ● Tires degrade with age and use. Have tires, including the spare, over 6 years old checked by a qualified technician because some tire damage may not be ob- vious.
● Do not install a damaged or deformed wheel or tire even if it has been re- paired. Such wheels or tires could have structural damage and could fail with- out warning.
● Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE ONL Y spare tire will wear at a faster rate than the standard tire. Replace the spare tire as soon as the tread wear indicators appear. ● Do not use the spare tire on other vehicles. ● Do not use more than one spare tire at the same time.

● GVW (Gross V ehicle W eight) - curb weight plus the combined weight of passengers and cargo. ● GVWR (Gross V ehicle W eight Rat- ing) - maximum total combined weight of the unloaded vehicle, pas- sengers, luggage, hitch, trailer tongue load and any other optional equipment.
Steps for determining correct load limit 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs or XXX kg” 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.
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.
Always verify that available capacities are within the required ratings. T OWING L OAD/SPECIFICA TION T OWING LOAD / SPECIFICA TION UNIT : lb (kg) MAXIMUM TOWING L OAD 1,000 (454) MAXIMUM TONGUE L OAD 100 (45) T OWING SAFETY T railer hitch Choose a proper hitch for your vehicle and trailer.
Y ou may add Class I trailer hitch equipment that has a 2,000 lb (907 kg) maximum weight rating to the vehicle, but your vehicle is only capable of towing the maximum trailer weights shown in the T owing Load/Specification chart earlier in this section.
WARNING Never connect a trailer brake system di- rectly to the vehicle brake system. Pre-towing tips ● Be certain your vehicle maintains a level position when a loaded and/or unloaded trailer is hitched.
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.
