using the door handle request switch
01 as follows:
• The luggage cover must be pulled out and hung

• The ignition switch must be in the OFF position.
• Push and hold the door handle request switch

BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system alerts the
driver when another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s
blind spot area.

An indicator light near the driver’s outside mirror will
illuminate if the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone.

The indicator light will fi rst illuminate in orange
and then turn green while the system is on. This
indicates that the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
is operational.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5) ” of your
Owner’s Manual.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW) SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW)
system alerts the driver when the vehicle moves
close to either the left or the right of a clearly marked
traveling lane.

When the vehicle approaches either the left or right
of the clearly marked traveling lane a chime will sound
and the LDW light

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message will
appear in the dot matrix liquid crystal display
01
and the low tire pressure warning light
02 will
illuminate when one or more tires are low on
pressure and air is needed.
• The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle
at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). The CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE warning message and low tire
pressure warning light will disappear.

When the low tire pressure warning light fl ashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the TPMS
is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle\
’s operation and the
outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature o\
f the air inside the
tire, which can cause a lower tire infl ation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low amb\
ient temperature, check
the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior \
to long distance trips.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to section 9,
“Technical and consumer information”, in your Owner’s Manual for the location of the Tire and
Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” , the “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
essential information
LOOSE FUEL CAP
A LOOSE FUEL CAP warning message will appear
in the dot matrix liquid crystal display
01 when the
fuel-fi ller cap is not tightened correctly.

To tighten, turn the cap clockwise until a single click
is heard.

The warning message will disappear when the vehicle
detects the fuel-fi ller cap is properly tightened and the
reset button
02 is pressed.

If the cap is not properly tightened the Malfunction
Indicator Light
may illuminate.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”
and the “Pre-driving checks and adjustments (section 3)” of your

function to ensure windows close completely to help
seal against wind noise and weather leaks.

automatically lower slightly to avoid contact between
the windows and the side roof panels.

If your vehicle’s battery has been discharged or
disconnected, the power window automatic adjusting
function will not operate.

shelf, inner fl aps, storage lid or trunk lid. Even small
items may interfere with the top operation and could
cause damage to the top or the vehicle body.
NOTE: In case of low battery or low temperature, the
top may temporarily stop moving during operation. This
functions to protect the top control mechanism. This is
not a malfunction.
For more information, refer to the “Pre-driving checks and adjustments (section 3)” of your Owner’s Manual.
