of the vehicle.
. ALWAYS review this Owner’s Man-
ual for important safety informa-
tion.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver
differently from an ordinary passenger
car because it has a higher center of
gravity for off-road use. As with other
vehicles with features of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correctly
may result in loss of control or an
accident. Be sure to read “On-pave-
ment and off-road driving precau-
tions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover”
and “Driving safety precautions” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
MODIFICATION OF YOUR VEHI-
CLE
This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification could affect its perfor-
mance, safety or durability, and may
even violate governmental regula-
tions. In addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from
modification will not be covered under
the NISSAN warranties.
WARNING
Installing an aftermarket On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) plug-in device that
uses the port during normal driving,
for example remote insurance com-
pany monitoring, remote vehicle di-
agnostics, telematics or engine
reprogramming, may cause interfer-
ence or damage to vehicle systems.
We do not recommend or endorse
the use of any aftermarket OBD
plug-in devices, unless specifically
approved by NISSAN. The vehicle
warranty may not cover damage
caused by any aftermarket plug-in
device.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-17

WARNING
To avoid risk of injury or death, do
not use the remote engine start
function when the vehicle is in an
enclosed area such as a garage.
JVP0445X
The remote engine startbutton is on
the Intelligent Key if the vehicle has
remote engine start function. This func-
tion allows the engine to start from
outside the vehicle.
Some systems, such as the air conditioner
system, will turn on during a remote
engine start, if the system was on the
last time the ignition switch was turned
off.
Laws in some local communities may
restrict the use of remote engine starters.
For example, some laws require a person
using remote engine start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for
any requirements. Other conditions may affect the remote
engine start function. See “Conditions the
remote engine start will not work” (P.3-
20).
Other conditions can affect the perfor-
mance of the Intelligent Key transmitter.
See “Intelligent Key system” (P.3-7) for
additional information.
REMOTE ENGINE START OPERATING
RANGE
The remote engine start function can
only be used when the Intelligent Key is
within the specified operating range from
the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intelli-
gent Key may not function properly.
The remote engine start operating range
is approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the
vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE ENGINE
To use the remote start function to start
the engine, perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Push the “LOCK”
button to lock all

mediately when the remote engine
start function is performed. For exam-
ple, if the engine has been running for
