FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive under cer-
tain conditions. You could be
burned or seriously injured if it is
misused or mishandled. Always
stop engine and do not smoke or
allow open flames or sparks near
the vehicle when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Contin-
ued refueling may cause fuel
overflow, resulting in fuel spray
and possibly a fire.
. Use only an original equipment
type fuel-filler cap as a replace-
ment. It has a built-in safety valve
needed for proper operation of
the fuel system and emission
control system. An incorrect cap can result in a serious malfunc-
tion and possible injury. It could
also cause the malfunction indi-
cator light to come on.
. Never pour fuel into the throttle
body to attempt to start your
vehicle.
. Do not fill a portable fuel contain-
er in the vehicle or trailer. Static
electricity can cause an explosion
of flammable liquid, vapor or gas
in any vehicle or trailer. To reduce
the risk of serious injury or death
when filling portable fuel contain-
ers:
— Always place the container on
the ground when filling.
— Do not use electronic devices when filling.
— Keep the pump nozzle in con- tact with the container while
you are filling it.
— Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable
liquid.

Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose con-
trol of your vehicle and cause an
accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
any closer to you than is neces-
sary for proper steering opera-
tion and comfort. The driver’s air
bag inflates with great force. If
you are unrestrained, leaning for-
ward, sitting sideways or out of
position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive ser-
ious 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.

telligent Rear View Mirror before
vehicle operation. The driver is
always responsible for safe driv-
ing. .
Do not disassemble or modify the
Intelligent Rear View Mirror, the
camera unit or wirings. If you do,
it may result in accidents or fire.
In case you notice smoke or smell
coming from the Intelligent Rear
View Mirror, stop using the sys-
tem immediately. It is recom-
mended that you see a NISSAN
dealer for servicing.
. Do not operate the Intelligent
Rear View Mirror while driving.

Rear View Mirror before driving.
Switch the system to the conven-
tional rearview mirror mode and
be properly seated on the driver’s seat. Then adjust the mirror so as

mode) due to the reflection from
the surface of the mirror.
. If the Intelligent Rear View Mirror
malfunctions, immediately switch
the system to the conventional
rearview mirror mode.

the system to the conventional
rearview mirror mode appropri-
ately.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates
on the exterior glass surface cov-
ering the camera, the Intelligent
Rear View Mirror may not display
objects clearly. Use of the rear

prove visibility, but if not, switch
the Intelligent Rear View Mirror to
the conventional rearview mirror
mode until a time the glass cov-
