and become trapped in a window.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
The power windows operate when the ignition
key is in the ON position and for about 45

OFF position. If the driver’s door or the front
passenger’s door is opened during this period of
about 45 seconds, power to the windows is
canceled.
The power window switches will be deactivated

mately 33 ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The
effective distance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with one
vehicle. For information concerning the purchase
and use of additional keyfobs, contact a NISSAN
dealer.

The soft top operating switch must be operated
under all of the following conditions:

When the vehicle is stopped.
When the engine is running.
CAUTION
Always keep the engine running while
operating the soft top. The top will also
operate when the ignition switch is in
the ONposition, but run the engine to
prevent a discharged battery.
Be sure to follow the operating instructions, and
all the warnings and cautions in this section.
Improper operation of the top could cause
a system malfunction, damage, or deterio-
ration of the top material and related parts.
WARNING
Park the vehicle in a safe and level
place and apply the parking brake.
Make sure the area is clear of ob-
stacles and there is enough clear-
ance over the top (for example, in a
garage or a covered area). More than
approximately 6.6 ft (2 m) from the
ground is required to open or close
the top safely. Otherwise, the top
may damage any objects above it

Soft top indicator lightThe soft top indicator light in the instrument
panel shows the conditions of top operation. The
light illuminates when the soft top is being
operated or if it is stopped before reaching the
fully opened or closed position. When the top is
fully opened, the light will turn off. When the top
is fully closed, the light will flash.
When the soft top is in motion, and any of the
following conditions occur, the top will stop

cushion or the seatback) is operated.
Remove your hand from the soft top operating
switch, and push the switch again to move the
top to the fully opened or closed position. The

is completely finished. Securely engage the top
to the vehicle body by operating the top latch
lever. The light will turn off.
If the soft top indicator light flashes with the

switch, and push it again to resume operation.
The passenger seatback will start tilting forward
again from the present position, and the soft top
will start opening or closing. If the top movement
is interrupted at this time, the next time you
resume top operation, the seatback will first tilt
forward from the present position, then the top
will start moving again.
If you need to cancel this function or when a
child restraint is installed in the passenger seat,
