.When the selector lever or shift lever is in a
position other than the R (Reverse) position.
CAUTION
Always keep the engine running while
operating the soft top. The top will also
operate when the ignition switch is in
the ON position, 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 dete-
rioration 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
obstacles 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 while moving. The top operating
system could also be damaged.
. Do not operate the top in a strong
wind. It could be blown by the wind,
striking someone or damage the
top.
. Do not allow anyone to stand up or
extend any portion of their body out
of the opening while the vehicle is in
motion or while the top is being
operated.
. In an accident you could be thrown
from the vehicle with an open top.
Always use seat belts and proper
child restraints.
CAUTION
.Do not operate the top when the
temperature is below 32 8F(0 8C) .
This may result in damage to the
top material or operating system.
. Remove water drops, snow, ice or
sand from the top, and dry the
surface of the top completely before
opening it.
. Do not open the top when it is wet
or damp. This may cause interior water damage, stains or mildew on
the top material.
. Be sure to turn off the rear window
defroster switch. Never turn it on
while the top is being operated or
fully opened. The heat may damage
the top material.

filler tube, then tighten until the
fuel-filler cap clicks. Failure to tight-
en the fuel-filler cap properly may
cause the
malfunction indicator
light (MIL) to illuminate. If the
light illuminates because the fuel-
filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to
drive the vehicle. The
light
should turn off after a few driving
trips. If the
light does not turn
off after a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected by a NISSAN deal-
er.

The fuel-filler cap is a ratcheting type. Turn the
cap counterclockwise to remove. To tighten, turn
the cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks are
heard.
Use the fuel-filler cap holder on the hook
*A
while refueling.
WARNING
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an acci-
dent.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
any closer to you than is necessary
for proper steering operation and
comfort. The driver’s air bag inflates
with great force. If you are unrest-
rained, leaning forward, sitting side-
ways or out of position in any way,
you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also
receive serious or fatal injuries from
the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far
away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.TILT STEERINGPre-driving checks and adjustments
