5-6Starting and driving
Additional information
.Since the spare tire is not equipped
with the TPMS, the TPMS does not
monitor the tire pressure of the spare
tire.
. The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above 16
MPH (25 km/h). Also, this system may
not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example, a flat tire while
driving).
. The low tire pressure warning light
does not automatically turn off when
the tire pressure is adjusted. After the
tire is inflated to the recommended
pressure, the vehicle must be driven at
speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low
tire pressure warning light. Use a tire
pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
. The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warn-
ing appears in the vehicle information
display when the low tire pressure
warning light is illuminated and low
tire pressure is detected. The “Tire
Pressure Low Add Air” warning turns
off when the low tire pressure warn-
ing light turns off.
The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warn-
ing appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long as the low tire pressure warning
light remains illuminated.
The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warn-
ing does not appear if the low tire
pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction.
. Tire pressure rises and falls depending
on the heat caused by the vehicle’s
operation and the outside tempera-
ture. Do not reduce the tire pressure
after driving because the tire pressure
rises after driving. Low outside tem-
perature can lower the temperature
of the air inside the tire which can
cause a lower tire inflation pressure.
This may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the
warning light illuminates in low ambi-
ent temperature, check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires.
. You can also check the pressure of all
tires (except the spare tire) on the
vehicle information display. (See “10.
Tire pressures” (P.2-37).)
For additional information, see “Low tire
pressure warning light” (P.2-15) and “Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ” (P.6-
3).WARNING
. If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates or Low Pressure
information is displayed on the
monitor screen while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneu-
vers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires
and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in ser-
ious personal injury. Check the
tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat or
the TPMS may be malfunctioning.
If you have a flat tire, replace it
with a spare tire as soon as
possible. If no tire is flat and all
tires are properly inflated, it is

brake pedal and shift the shift lever from
P (Park) to R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D
(Drive) or Manual shift mode position.
Push the button to shift into P (Park) or R
(Reverse). All other positions can be
selected without pushing the button.
WARNING
Apply the parking brake if the shift
lever is in any position while the
engine is not running. Failure to do
so could cause the vehicle to move
unexpectedly or roll away and result
in serious personal injury or property
damage.
CAUTION
Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped and the transmission is in
the P (Park) position.
P (Park) position:
Use this position when the vehicle is
parked or when starting the engine. Make
sure the vehicle is completely stopped.
The brake pedal must be depressed and
the shift lever button pushed in to move the shift lever from the N (Neutral)
position or any drive position to the P
(Park) position.
Apply the parking brake.
When parking on a hill, apply the parking
brake first, then move the shift lever to
the P (Park) position.
CAUTION
Use this position only when the
vehicle is completely stopped.
R (Reverse):
Use this position to back up. Always be
sure the vehicle is completely stopped
before selecting the R (Reverse) position.
The brake pedal must be depressed and
the shift lever button pushed in to move
the shift lever from the P (Park) posi-
tion, the N (Neutral) position or any
drive position to the R (Reverse) posi-
tion.
N (Neutral):
Neither forward nor reverse gear is en-
gaged. The engine can be started in this
position. You may shift to the N (Neutral)
position and restart a stalled engine while
the vehicle is moving. D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward
driving.
Manual shift mode
When the shift lever is in the manual shift
gate, the transmission is ready for the
manual shift mode. Shift ranges can be
selected manually by moving the shift
lever up or down.
When shifting up, move the shift lever to
the + (up) side. The transmission shifts to
the higher range.
When shifting down, move the shift lever
to the − (down) side. The transmission
shifts to the lower range.
When canceling the manual shift mode,
return the shift lever to the D (Drive)
position. The transmission returns to the
normal driving mode.
In the manual shift mode, the shift range
is displayed on the position indicator in
the meter.

Shift ranges up or down one by one as
follows:
M1?
/M2 ?
/M3 ?
/M4 ?
/M5?
/M6 ?
/M7
M7 (7th):
Use this position for all normal forward
driving at highway speeds.
M6 (6th) andM5 (5th):
Use these positions when driving up long
slopes, or for engine braking when driving
down long slopes.
M4 (4th),M3 (3rd) andM2 (2nd):
Use these positions for hill climbing or
engine braking on downhill grades.
M1 (1st):
Use this position when climbing steep
hills slowly or driving slowly through deep
snow, or for maximum engine braking on
steep downhill grades.
. Remember not to drive at high speeds
for extended periods of time in lower
than 7th gear. This reduces fuel econ-
omy.
. Moving the shift lever rapidly to the
same side twice will shift the ranges in
succession.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission may not shift to the se-
lected gear or may automatically shift to the other gear. This helps
maintain driving performance and
reduces the chance of vehicle da-
mage or loss of control.
. When the transmission does not
shift to the selected gear, the Auto-
matic Transmission (AT) position in-
dicator light (in the vehicle
information display) will blink and
the buzzer will sound.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission automatically shifts down
to 1st gear before the vehicle comes
to a stop. When accelerating again, it
is necessary to shift up to the
desired range.
Accelerator downshift — In D (Drive)
position —
For passing or hill climbing, fully depress
the accelerator pedal to the floor. This
shifts the transmission down into the
lower gear, depending on the vehicle
speed.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, note
that the transmission will be locked in any
of the forward gears according to the
condition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme
conditions, such as excessive wheel spinning and subsequent hard braking,
the fail-safe system may be activated.
This will occur even if all electrical
circuits are functioning properly. In this
case, push the switch to the OFF posi-
tion and wait for 3 seconds. Then push
the ignition switch back to the ON
position. The vehicle should return to
its normal operating condition. If it does
not return to its normal operating con-
dition, have the transmission checked
and repaired, if necessary. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.

WAF0734X
The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system
provides the driver with information
about the most recently detected speed
limit. The system captures the road sign
information with the multi-sensing front
camera unit
located on the windshield
above the inside mirror and displays the
detected signs in the vehicle information
display. For vehicles equipped with navi-
gation system, the speed limit displayed is
based on a combination of navigation
system data and live camera recognition.
WARNING
The TSR system is only intended to
be a support device to provide the
driver with information. It is not a
replacement for the driver’s atten-
tion to traffic conditions or respon-
sibility to drive safely. It cannot
prevent accidents due to careless-
ness. It is the driver’s responsibility
to stay alert and drive safely at all
times.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The TSR system displays the following
types of road sign:

CAUTION
.The TSR system is intended as an
aid to careful driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, and observe
all road regulations that currently
apply, including looking out for
road signs.
. The TSR system may not function
properly under all conditions. Be-
low are some examples:
— When the road sign is not
clearly visible, for example,
due to damage or weather
conditions.
— When rain, snow or dirt ad- heres to the windshield in
front of the multi-sensing
front camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens
or if the aiming is not adjusted
properly. — When strong light enters the
camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the
front of the vehicle at sunrise
or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For exam-
ple, when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
— In areas not covered by the navigation system.
— If there are deviations in rela- tion to the navigation, for ex-
ample due to changes in the
road routing.
— When overtaking buses or trucks with speed stickers.
. The TSR system may display a
traffic sign, though there is no
traffic sign in front of the vehicle.
It may display a different speed
limit from that for a passenger
vehicle. (The maximum speed
limit sign may show a higher or
lower number than the actual
maximum speed, for example,
when detecting a speed limit sign
for truck, advisory sign, different
speed limit sign between daytime

and nighttime, or speed limit sign
written in different unit near the
border, etc.)

the road at a safe location and stop the
vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart
the engine. If the warning message con-
tinues to appear, have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The TSR system uses the same multi-
sensing front camera unit that is used by
the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) sys-
tem, located above the inside mirror. (See
“System maintenance” (P.5-31).)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
LDW system could result in serious
injury or death.
.
This system is only a warning
device to inform the driver of a
potential unintended lane depar-
ture. It will not steer the vehicle or
prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, keep the vehi-
cle in the traveling lane, and be in
control of the vehicle at all times.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW)

WAF0734X
The LDW system will operate when the
vehicle is driven at speeds of approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and above, and
the lane markings are clearly visible on
the road.
The LDW system monitors the lane mar-
kers on the traveling lane using the
camera unit
located above the inside
mirror.
The LDW system warns the driver that the
vehicle is beginning to leave the driving
lane with an indicator and a steering
wheel vibration. (See “LDW system opera-
tion” (P.5-27).)WAF0730X
