If one of the mirrors are manually operated or
bumped, the mirror body can become loose at
the pivot point. To correct electronic mirror op-
eration, cycle the mirrors by pushing the
“CLOSE” switch until completely closed, then
push the “OPEN” switch until the mirrors are in
the open position.
Automatic anti-glare outside mirrors (if
so equipped)
The outside mirrors will automatically dim during
nighttime conditions to reduce the glare from the
headlights of trailing vehicles. The automatic anti-
glare feature operates only when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position.
The automatic anti-glare feature will be on when
starting the vehicle. The indicator light on the
automatic anti-glare rearview mirror will illuminate
when the automatic anti-glare feature is operat-
ing.
To turn off the anti-glare feature, press the
button on the rearview mirror. The indicator light
will turn off.
To turn on the anti-glare feature again, press
the
button on the rearview mirror. The in-
dicator light will turn on. For information on the automatic anti-glare rear-
view mirror, see “Automatic anti-glare rearview
mirror” earlier in this section.
Heated mirrors
The outside mirrors can be heated to defrost,
defog, or de-ice for improved visibility. For addi-
tional information, see “Rear window and outside
mirror defroster switch” in the “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual.
The automatic drive positioner system has two

AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER (if
so equipped)
3-36Pre-driving checks and adjustments

MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
Two positions for the driver’s seat, accelerator
and brake pedals, and outside mirrors can be
stored in the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the memory sys-
tem.1. Place the shift selector in the P (Park) posi- tion.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat, accelerator and brake pedals, and outside mirrors to the
desired positions by manually operating
each adjusting switch. For additional infor- mation, see “Seats” in the “Safety—Seats,
seat belts and supplemental restraint sys-
tem” section of this manual and “Pedal posi-
tion adjustment” and “Outside mirrors” ear-
lier in this section.
During this step, do not place the ignition
switch in any position other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2) .
If a new memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a keyfob to a stored memory
position
Each keyfob can be linked to a stored memory
position (memory switch 1 or 2) with the follow-
ing procedure: 1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi- tion. 2. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, press the
button on the keyfob.
The indicator light will blink. After the indica-
tor light goes off, the keyfob is linked to that
memory setting.
With the key removed from the ignition switch or
the ignition switch is moved to OFF, press
the
button on the keyfob. The driver’s seat,
accelerator and brake pedals, and outside mir-
rors will move to the memorized position.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is saved to the
memory switch, the keyfob automatically
re-links.
Confirming memory storage
● Place the ignition switch in the ON position
and push the SET switch. If the main memory
has not been stored, the indicator light will
come on for approximately 0.5 seconds.
When the memory has stored the position,
the indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
LPD0419
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-37

●If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the memory storage function will
be canceled and must be restarted before a
stored memory position can be set again.
Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h) to
restart the memory storage function. You
can also restart the memory storage function
using the following procedure.
1. Connect the battery cable or replace the fuse.
2. Open and close the driver’s door more than 2 times with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position.
Once the memory storage function has been
restarted, you can store a memory position.
See “Memory storage function” in this section.
Selecting the memorized position
Set the shift selector to the P (Park) position,
then:
● Within 45 seconds of opening the driver’s
door, push the memory switch (1 or 2) or
● Place the ignition switch in the ON position
and push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The driver’s seat, accelerator and brake pedals,
and outside mirrors will move to the memorized
position with the indicator light blinking, and then
the light will stay on for approximately 5 seconds.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
will automatically move when the shift selector is
placed in the P (Park) position. This allows the
driver to get into and out of the driver’s seat more
easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward: ● When the key is removed from the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is opened.
● When the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition switch placed in the LOCK position.
● When the ignition switch is turned from
ACC to LOCK with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat will return to the previous posi-
tion: ● When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is closed.
● When the driver’s door is closed with the
ignition switch placed in the LOCK position.
● When the ignition switch is turned from
ACC to ON while the shift selector is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or can-
celed. For vehicles with navigation system, see
“Comfort & convenience settings” in the “Moni-
tor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems” section of this manual. For vehicles
without navigation system, see your NISSAN
dealer.
Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected or if the fuse
opens, the entry/exit function will be disabled.
Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h) to
restart the entry/exit function. You can also restart
the entry/exit function using the following proce-
dure.
1. Connect the battery cable or replace the fuse.
2. Open and close the driver’s door more than 2 times with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position.
The entry/exit function should now work properly.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will not
work or will stop operating under the following
conditions: ● When the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7
km/h) .
● When any of the memory switches are
pushed while the automatic drive positioner
is operating.
3-38Pre-driving checks and adjustments

●When the adjusting switch for the driver’s
seat is turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
● When the seat has been already moved to
the memorized position.
● When no seat position is stored in the
memory switch.
● When the shift selector is moved from P
(Park) to any other position.
● When the driver’s door remains open more
than 45 seconds and the ignition switch is
not in the ON position.
The automatic drive positioner system can be
adjusted and canceled. For vehicles with naviga-
tion system, see “Comfort & convenience set-
tings” in the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and
voice recognition systems” section of this
manual. For vehicles without navigation system,
see your NISSAN dealer.

tinue to be displayed.
● When driving uphill or rounding curves,
the fuel in the tank shifts, which may
momentarily change the display.
Average fuel economy (MPG or L/100 km)
The Average Fuel Economy is calculated based
on fuel consumption since the last reset. The
display is updated every 30 seconds and 1/3 mi
