tal front air bag system should be
done by a NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment should
also be done by a NISSAN dealer.
The Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) wiring should not be modified
or disconnected. Unauthorized elec-
trical test equipment and probing de-
vices should not be used on the air
bag system.
A cracked windshield should be re-
placed immediately by a qualified re-
pair facility. A cracked windshield
could affect the function of the
supplemental air bag system.
The SRS wiring harness connectors
are yellow and orange for easy iden-
tification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the supplemental front air
bag system and guide the buyer to the appro-
priate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
Supplemental side air bag and curtain
side-impact and rollover air bag
systemsThe supplemental side air bags are located in
the outside of the seatback of the front seats.
The supplemental curtain side-impact and roll-
over air bags are located in the side roof rails.
These systems are designed to meet voluntary
guidelines to help reduce the risk of injury to
out-of-position occupants.However, all of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual still apply and must be followed.
The supplemental side air bags and curtain
side-impact and rollover air bags are designed
to inflate in higher severity side collisions, al-though they may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a higher
severity side impact. They are designed to inflate
on the side where the vehicle is impacted. They
may not inflate in certain side collisions.
Curtain side-impact and rollover air bags are
also designed to inflate in certain types of roll-
over collisions or near rollovers.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental side air bag
and curtain side-impact and rollover air bag
operation.
When the supplemental side air bag and curtain
side-impact/rollover air bag inflate, a fairly loud
noise may be heard, followed by release of
smoke. This smoke is not harmful and does not
indicate a fire. Care should be taken not to inhale
it, as it may cause irritation and choking. Those
with a history of a breathing condition should get
fresh air promptly.
Supplemental side air bags, along with the use
of seat belts, help to cushion the impact force on
the chest of the front occupants. Curtain side-
impact and rollover air bags help to cushion the
impact force to the head of occupants in the
front and rear outboard seating positions. They
can help save lives and reduce serious injuries.
However, an inflating side air bag and curtain
side-impact/rollover air bag may cause abra-
sions or other injuries. Supplemental side air
bags and curtain side-impact and rollover air

obscure your vision which may lead to
an accident. Warm the windshield with
the defroster before you wash the wind-
shield.
CAUTION
Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for more than 30 seconds.
Do not operate the washer if the
reservoir tank is empty.
Do not fill the window washer reser-
voir tank with washer fluid concen-
trates at full strength. Some methyl
alcohol based washer fluid concen-
trates may permanently stain the
grille if spilled while filling the win-
dow washer reservoir tank.Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates
with water to the manufacturer’s rec-
ommended levels before pouring the
fluid into the window washer reser-
voir tank. Do not use the window
washer reservoir tank to mix the
washer fluid concentrate and water.

Battery saver systemWhen the headlight switch is in the
or
position while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automatically
turn off 5 minutes after the ignition switch has
been turned to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in theor
position after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will turn on for 5
minutes when the headlight switch is turned
to the OFF position and then turned to the
or
position.CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature
automatically turns off the headlights
after a period of time, you should turn
the headlight switch to the OFF position
when the engine is not running to avoid
discharging the vehicle battery.
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may
directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle.
The light axis can be lowered with the operation
of the switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.When traveling with no heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview
mirror of the vehicle ahead or the wind-
shield of oncoming vehicle, the driver of
these vehicles may have difficulty driv-
ing because of the brightness. Use the
headlight aiming control switch to lower
the light axis. See “Xenon headlights”
earlier in this section for additional in-
formation.DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
(CANADA ONLY)The daytime running lights automatically illumi-
nate when the engine is started with parking
brake released. The daytime running lights op-
erate with the headlight switch in the OFF
position or in the
position.
The daytime running lights may come on after
turning the switch to the OFF position and

When the
front defroster button is
pushed, the air conditioner will automatically
be turned on at outside temperatures above
23°F (−5°C) to defog the windshield, and the
air recirculate mode will automatically be
turned off.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger
compartment to improve the defogging per-
formance.
MANUAL OPERATION
Fan speed controlTurn the fan control button
to manually
control the fan speed.
Push the AUTO button to return to automatic
control of the fan speed.
Air recirculationPush the air recirculation button

culate interior air inside the vehicle. The indicator
light on the
button will come on.
The air recirculation
cannot be activatedwhen the air conditioner is in the front defrosting
mode
.
Fresh airPush the button

button. To return to the automatic
control mode, push the indicator-illuminated but-
ton for about 2 seconds. The indicator lights
(both air recirculate and fresh air buttons) will
flash twice, and then the intake air will be
controlled automatically.
Air flow controlPushing the MODE manual air flow control
button selects the air outlet to:
: Air flows from center and side ventila-
tors.: Air flows from center and side ventila-
tors and foot outlets.: Air flows from foot outlets and side
ventilators.
: Air flows from defroster, foot outlets
and side ventilators.
To turn the system offPush the OFF button.OPERATING TIPSWhen the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from the
foot outlets may not operate for a maximum of
150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction.
After the coolant temperature warms up, the air
flow from the foot outlets will operate normally.
