1. Remove the cargo room carpet.
2. Find the rear hatch release handle
as shown in the illustration.
3. Free the release handle that is fixed with velcro. 4. Firmly pull the release handle until the
rear hatch releases.
WARNING
.Do not drive with the trunk lid
open. This could allow dangerous
exhaust gases to be drawn into
the vehicle. See “Exhaust gas
(carbon monoxide)” (P.5-2) of this
manual.
. Closely supervise children when
they are around cars to prevent
them from playing and becoming
locked in the trunk where they
could be seriously injured. Keep
the car locked, with the trunk
closed, when not in use, and
prevent children’s access to In-
telligent Keys.

SPA2683
SECONDARY TRUNK LID RELEASE
The secondary trunk lid release mechan-
ism allows opening the trunk lid in the
event of discharged battery or emer-
gency.
1. Open the rear parcel box.
2. Remove the cap
with a suitable tool.
3. Insert the key into the key cylinder and turn it counterclockwise. The trunk lid
will open.

.Do not place anything in the top
storage area. The top will not fit
there properly, and this could
damage the top and/or the vehi-
cle body.
. Do not sit or place excessive
weight on the top and the sto-
rage lid, especially when the top
is being operated. The top may be
damaged.
. Do not drive the vehicle with the
top partially opened. Always
make sure the top is either fully
opened or closed before driving.
. Secure items so that they cannot
be blown from the vehicle while
driving with the top open.
. Do not operate the top manually
except for emergency cases.
Manual operation may damage
the top.
. Be sure to fully open or fully close
the top. Do not release the switch
half way through the roof open-
ing or closing process. If the top is
only partially opened, significant
damage to the top could occur.
Make sure the trunk lid is securely closed
before operating the top.
SPA2706
WHEN OPERATING THE TOP
WARNING
Keep hands and other parts of the
body away from moving parts such
as the top, storage lid, side flap
and power windows.
CAUTION
Keep all parts of the top linkage clear
of obstructions, or the top latch may
not be securely locked. NOTE:
.
In case of low battery or low tem-
perature, the top may temporarily
stop moving during the operation.
This functions to protect the top
control mechanism, and it is not a
malfunction.
. If the top is opened and closed
repeatedly in a short period of time
or the top operation is stopped while
opening or closing, the top opera-
tion may be automatically stopped
to protect the system. Wait for ap-
proximately 5 minutes before oper-
ating the top again.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25

3-30Pre-driving checks and adjustments
IF THE TOP DOES NOT OPEN OR
CLOSE ELECTRICALLY
If you cannot operate the soft top with
the operating switch, first check whether
all the following operating conditions are
met.
.vehicle is stopped
. ignition switch is ON (Run the engine
when operating the top.)
. the trunk is closed
. the shift lever is in a position other
than the R (Reverse) position
If the top still does not move under the
above conditions or has any system
malfunction, it is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.
When you must close the top by yourself,
in the event of emergency or when an
immediate dealer service is not available,
close the top manually according to the
procedures shown in this section.
When closing the soft top manually:
. Move the vehicle to a safe place, away
from traffic.
. Two people should perform this pro-
cedure, as some of the top parts are
extremely heavy.
The top cannot be opened manually.
WARNING
. Do not drive with the top partially
opened.
. If the top cannot be operated
properly, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
CAUTION
The storage lid is extremely heavy.
The storage lid should be manually
opened or closed by two people.
SPA2715
1. Open the trunk lid. In the event of a
discharged battery, the secondary
trunk release mechanism should be

release” (P.3-22).)
2. Open the top storage lid a. Remove the board
inside of the
trunk by removing the clips.
b. Pull the lock release cables (right and left)
as illustrated, then close
the trunk lid.

6. Push the ignition switch to the “ACC”position. Then turn the compressor
switch to the ON (−) position and
inflate the tire up to the pressure that
is specified on the tire and loading
information label affixed to the driver’s
side center pillar if possible, or to the
minimum of 26 psi (180 kPa). Turn the
air compressor off briefly in order to
check the tire pressure with the pres-
sure gauge.
If the tire is inflated to higher than the
specified pressure, lower the tire pres-
sure by releasing air with the pressure
release valve. NOTE:
The compressor tire pressure gauge
may show a pressure reading of 87
psi (600 kPa) for about 30 seconds
while inflating the tire. The pressure
gauge is indicating the pressure in-
side the sealant can. When the
sealant has been injected into the
tire the pressure gauge will drop and
indicate actual tire pressure.
WARNING
.
To avoid serious personal injury
while using the emergency tire
puncture repair kit:
— Securely tighten the compres-
sor hose to the tire valve.
Failure to do so can cause
the sealant to spray into the
air and get into your eyes or
on the skin.
. Do not stand directly beside the
damaged tire while it is being
inflated because of the risk of
the rupture. If there are any
cracks or bumps, turn the com-
pressor off immediately.
If the tire pressure does not increase
to 26 psi (180 kPa) within 10 minutes,
the tire may be seriously damaged and
the tire cannot be repaired with
this tire repair kit. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for servicing.
7. When the tire pressure is at the specified amount, turn the air com-
pressor off. If the pressure cannot be
inflated to the specified amount, the
air compressor can be turned off at
the minimum of 26 psi (180 kPa).
Remove the power plug from the
power outlet and quickly remove the
hose from the tire valve. Attach the
protective cap and valve cap. Properly
stow the emergency tire puncture
repair kit in the trunk.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury
when stowing the emergency tire
puncture repair kit:
.Keep the sealant bottle screwed
into the compressor. Failure to do
so can cause the sealant to spray
into the air and get into your eyes
or on the skin.
8. Immediately drive the vehicle for 10 minutes or 2 miles (3 km) at a speed of
50 MPH (80 km/h) or less.
