additional information, see “Supplemental re-
straint system” in the “1. Safety — Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the front

If the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is running, it
may indicate a potential emission control mal-
function.
The malfunction indicator light may also come on
steady if the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, or
if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure
the fuel-filler cap is installed and closed tightly,
and that the vehicle has at least 3 US gallons (14
liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light comes on steady for 20
seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds when
the engine is not running, it indicates that the
vehicle is not ready for an emission control
system inspection/maintenance test. See
“Readiness for inspection/maintenance (I/M)
test” in the “9. Technical and consumer informa-

When installing a CB, ham radio or car phone in
your NISSAN vehicle, be sure to observe the
following cautions, otherwise the new equip-
ment may adversely affect the Engine Control
system and other electronic parts.
WARNING

A cellular telephone should not be
used while driving so full attention
may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use
of cellular telephones while driving.

If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands free
cellular phone operational mode (if
so equipped) is highly recommended.
Exercise extreme caution at all times
so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.

If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION

Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.

Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic con-
trol system harnesses. Do not route
the antenna wire next to any harness.

Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the manu-
facturer.

Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.

For details, consult a NISSAN dealer.
WARNING

Use a phone after stopping your ve-
hicle in a safe location. If you have to
use a phone while driving, exercise
extreme caution at all times so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation.

If you find yourself unable to devote
full attention to vehicle operation
while talking on the phone, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
To avoid draining the vehicle battery,
use a phone after starting the engine.

Your vehicle is equipped with the Bluetooth
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a Bluetooth
enabled cellular phone, you can
set up the wireless connection between your
cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone module.
With Bluetoothwireless technology, you can
make or receive a hands-free telephone call with
your cellular phone in the vehicle.Once your cellular phone is paired to the in-
vehicle phone module, no other phone connect-
ing procedure is required. Your phone is auto-
matically connected with the in-vehicle phone
module when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position with the paired cellular phone
turned on and carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Bluetooth
cellular phones to the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular phone
at a time.
Before using the Bluetooth
Hands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.

Set up the wireless connection between acellular phone and the in-vehicle phone mod-
ule before using the Bluetooth
Hands-Free
Phone System.

Some Bluetooth
enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list.

You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
— Your vehicle is outside of the telephone
service area.
— Your vehicle is in an area where it is
difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, near a tall building or in a mountain-
ous area.
— Your cellular phone is locked to prevent it
from being dialed.
When the radio wave condition is not ideal or
ambient sound is too loud, it may be difficult to
hear the other person’s voice during a call.
Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the in-
vehicle phone module to prevent tone quality
degradation and wireless connection disruption.
While a cellular phone is connected through the

Bluetooth
wireless connection, the battery
power of the cellular phone may discharge
quicker than usual.
If the Bluetooth
Hands-Free Phone System
seems to be malfunctioning, see “Troubleshoot-
ing guide” later in this section. You can also visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth for troubleshoot-
ing help.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the
device in a different location may reduce or
eliminate the noise.
Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual
regarding the telephone charges, cellular phone
antenna and body, etc.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device
may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed
and operated with minimum distance 8 in (20cm) between the radiator and your body. This
Transmitter must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or trans-
mitter.
USING THE SYSTEMThe NISSAN Voice Recognition system allows
hands-free operation of the Bluetooth
Hands-
Free Phone System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some commands may
not be available so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
InitializationWhen the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is initial-
ized, which takes a few seconds. When com-
pleted, the amber light on the overhead console
illuminates and the system is ready to accept
voice commands. If the
button is pushed
before the initialization completes, the system
will announce “Hands-free phone system not
ready” and will not react to voice commands.
Operating tipsTo get the best performance out of the NISSAN
Voice Recognition system, observe the follow-
ing:

Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet aspossible. Close the windows to eliminate
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system
from recognizing voice commands correctly.


Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command. Otherwise, the command will not be
received properly.

Start speaking a command within 5 seconds
after the tone sounds.

Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words.Giving voice commandsTo operate NISSAN Voice Recognition, push
and release the
button located on the
steering wheel. The light on the overhead con-
sole flashes to signal you have entered a voice
recognition (VR) session. After the tone sounds,
speak a command.
The command given is picked up by the micro-
phone, and voice feedback is given when the
command is accepted.

If you need to hear the available commands
for the current menu again, say “Help” and
the system will repeat them.

If a command is not recognized, the system
announces, “Command not recognized.
