NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of a
registered key.
If the engine fails to start using a registered key
(for example, when interference is caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automatic payment device on the key
ring) , restart the engine using the following pro-
cedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch placed in the ON position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, NISSAN rec-
ommends placing the registered key on a sepa-
rate key ring to avoid interference from other
devices. FCC Notice:

CAUTION
●Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
● Do not operate the washer if the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir is
empty. ●
Do not fill the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir with windshield-washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based windshield-
washer fluid concentrates may perma-
nently stain the grille if spilled while
filling the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir.
● Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid con-
centrates with water to the manufactur-
er’s recommended levels before pour-
ing the fluid into the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir. Do not use the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir to
mix the windshield-washer fluid con-
centrate and water.
NOTE:
If the windshield wiper operation is inter-
rupted by snow or ice, the wiper may stop
moving to protect its motor. If this occurs,
turn the wiper switch to the OFF position
and remove the snow or ice that is on and
around the wiper arms. In approximately
1 minute, turn the switch on again to oper-
ate the wiper.
The windshield wiper and washer operates when
the ignition switch is in the ON position. Rotate the end of the lever to operate the wiper at
the following speed:
1Intermittent (INT) — intermittent operation
can be adjusted by turning the knob toward
A(Slower) orB(Faster) . Also, the inter-
mittent operation speed varies in accor-
dance with the vehicle speed. (For example,
when the vehicle speed is high, the intermit-
tent operation speed will be faster.)
2Low (LO) — continuous low speed operation
3High (HI) — continuous high speed opera-
tion
Rotate the lever the opposite direction
4to have
one sweep operation (MIST) of the wiper.
Press the button on the end of the lever
5to
operate the washer. The wiper will also operate
several times.

RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
CAUTION
●Do not touch the rain sensor and
around it when the wiper switch is in the
AUTO position and the ignition switch is
in the ON position. The wipers may op-
erate unexpectedly and cause an injury
or may damage a wiper. ●
The rain-sensing auto wipers are in-
tended for use during rain. If the switch
is left in the AUTO position, the wipers
may operate unexpectedly when dirt,
fingerprints, oil film or insects are stuck
on or around the sensor. The wipers
may also operate when exhaust gas or
moisture affect the rain sensor.
● When the windshield glass is coated
with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be higher
even though the amount of the rainfall
is small.
● Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing auto
wiper system when you use a car wash.
● The rain-sensing auto wipers may not
operate if rain does not hit the rain
sensor even if it is raining.
● Using Genuine NISSAN wiper blades is
recommended for proper operation of
the rain-sensing auto wiper system. For
additional information, refer to “Wind-
shield wiper blades” in the “Do-it-
yourself” section of this manual. The rain-sensing auto wiper system can auto-
matically turn on the wipers and adjust the wiper
speed depending on the rainfall and the vehicle
speed by using the rain sensor located on the
upper part of the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system, rotate
the lever to the AUTO position
1. The wiper will
sweep once while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
The rain sensor sensitivity level can be adjusted
by turning the knob toward the front
B(High) or
toward the rear
A(Low) .
– High — High sensitive operation
– Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system off,
rotate the lever to the OFF position, or rotate the
lever to the LO or HI position.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensor feature may be disabled.
For additional information, refer to “Ve-
hicle information display” in this section.

Autolight system (if so equipped)
The autolight system allows the headlights to be
set so they turn on and off automatically. The
autolight system can:● Turn on the headlights, front parking, tail,
license plate and instrument panel lights au-
tomatically when it is dark.
● Turn off all the lights when it is light.
● Keep all the lights on for a period of time after
you place the ignition switch in the OFF
position and all doors are closed. NOTE:
Autolight activation sensitivity and the time
delay for autolight shutoff can be adjusted.
For additional information, refer to “Ve-
hicle information display” in this section.
To turn on the autolight system:
1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi- tion
1.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position.
3. The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position and a door is opened and left open, the
headlights remain on for a period of time. If an-
other door is opened while the headlights are on,
then the timer is reset.
To turn the autolight system off, turn the switch to
the OFF,
,orposition. Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor
1located on the top
side of the instrument panel. The autolight
sensor controls the autolight; if it is cov-
ered, the autolight sensor reacts as if it is
dark out and the headlights will illuminate.
If this occurs while parked with the engine
off and the ignition switch placed in the ON
position, your vehicle’s battery could be-
come discharged.

Battery saver system
If the ignition switch is placed in the OFF position
while the headlight switch is in the
orposition, the headlights will turn off after
a period of time.
After the headlights automatically turn off with the
headlight switch in the
orposition,
the headlights will illuminate again if the headlight
switch is moved to the OFF position and then
turned to the
orposition.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
Manual 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 di-
rectly 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 without a heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
(if so equipped)
The LED portion of the headlights (if so
equipped) , or the lights in the fog light area,
automatically illuminate at 100% intensity when
the engine is started and the parking brake re-
leased. The daytime running lights operate with
the headlight switch in the OFF position. When
you turn the headlight switch to the
posi-
tion for full illumination the LED lights (if so
equipped) switch from daytime running lights to
the park function. If the parking brake is applied before the engine is
started, the daytime running lights do not illumi-
nate. The daytime running lights illuminate when
the parking brake is released. The daytime run-
ning lights remain on while the engine is running.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight switch
ON for interior controls and switches to illumi-
nate, as those remain off while the switch is in the
OFF position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system is
active, tail lights on your vehicle are not
on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could cause
an accident injuring yourself and others.
