H ILL D ESCENT C ONTROL (HDC) SWITCH
(if so equipped)
The hill descent control system is designed to reduce driver workload when going down steep hills. The HDC system helps to control vehicle speed so the driver can concentrate on steering the vehicle.
To activate the HDC system:
 The automatic transmission selector lever must be in forward or reverse gear,
 The 4WD switch must be in the 4L position and the vehicle speed must be under 15 MPH (25 km/h), or
 The 4WD switch must be in the 4H position and the vehicle speed must be
under 21 MPH (35 km/h), and
 The HDC system switch must be ON.
 The HDC indicator light will come on when the system is activated. Also, the stop/tail lights illuminate while the HDC system applies the brakes to control vehicle speed. To turn off the HDC system, push the switch to the off position. The HDC system is temporarily disabled when the brake or accelerator pedal is depressed.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.
HILL S TART A SSIST (HSA) (if so equipped)

HSA will operate automatically under the following conditions:
 The selector lever is shifted to a forward or reverse gear.
 The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill by applying the brake.
The maximum holding time is 2 seconds.

02TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low 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 TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. After 60 seconds, the light will
remain on. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
CRUISE CONTROL (if so equipped)
 To activate the cruise control, push the ON/OFF switch. The indicator light in the instrument panel will illuminate.
 To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to the desired speed, push the COAST/SET switch and release it. The SET indicator light in the instrument panel will illuminate.
 To reset at a faster cruising speed, push and hold the ACCEL/RES switch. When the vehicle attains the speed you desire, release the switch.
 To reset at a slower cruising speed, push and hold the COAST/SET switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows to the desired speed.
 To resume a preset speed, push and release the ACCEL/RES switch. The vehicle returns to the last set cruising speed when the vehicle speed is over 25 MPH (40 km/h).
 To cancel cruise control, push the CANCEL switch or tap the brake pedal. The SET indicator light in the instrument panel will go out.
 To turn off cruise control, push the ON/OFF switch. Both the CRUISE indicator light and the SET indicator light in the instrument panel will go out.
FRONT-PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT
This vehicle is equipped with the Nissan Advanced Air Bag system. Under some conditions, depending on pressure detected on the passenger seat and how the seat belt is used, the front-passenger air bag is designed to automatically turn OFF. When the front-passenger air bag is OFF, the front-passenger air bag status light will illuminate*. For example:
 When the system detects that the front-
passenger’s seat is occupied by a small adult, child or child restraint as outlined in
the Owner’s Manual, the will illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is OFF and will not inflate in a crash.
 When the front-passenger’s seat is occupied and the passenger meets the conditions outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will not illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is operational.
*When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is unoccupied, the passenger air bag status light will not illuminate even though the front-passenger air bag is OFF.
