7-2Bluetooth®Hands-Free Phone System
WARNING
.Use a phone after stopping your
vehicle in a safe location. If you
have to use a phone while driving,
exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given
to vehicle operation.
. If you find yourself unable to devote
full attention to vehicle operation
while talking on the phone, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION
To avoid draining the vehicle battery,
use a phone after the READY to drive
indicator light is ON.
Your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth
®
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a compatible Bluetooth®enabled cellular
phone, you can set up the wireless connection
between your cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module. With Bluetooth
®wireless tech-
nology, you can make or receive a telephone call
with your cellular phone in your pocket. Once a cellular phone is connected to the in-
vehicle phone module, the procedure for con-
necting the phone does not need to be
performed again. Your phone is automatically
selected with the in-vehicle phone module when
the power switch is pushed to the "ON" position
with the selected cellular phone turned on and
carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 3 different Bluetooth
®
cellular phones in the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular phone
at a time.
The NISSAN Voice Recognition system sup-
ports phone commands, so dialing a phone
number using your voice is possible.
“8. Voice recognition”
Before using the Bluetooth®Hands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz) . Using the Bluetooth®and the
wireless LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disconnect the communica-
tion and cause undesired noise. It is
recommended that you turn off the wireless
LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the Bluetooth
®
functions. .
Set up the wireless connection between a
compatible cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the Bluetooth
®
Hands-Free Phone System.
. Some Bluetooth®enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module.
Please visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth
for a recommended phone list.
. You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
— Your vehicle is outside of the telephone
service area.
— Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive radio waves; such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking
garage, behind a tall building or in a
mountainous area.
— Your cellular phone is locked in order to prevent dialing.
. When the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice
during a call.
. Immediately after the power switch is
pushed to the "ON" position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short period
of time.

WARNING
.A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohi-
bit the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode is
highly recommended. Exercise ex-
treme caution at all times so full

CAR PHONE or CB RADIO

9-2Monitor system (if so equipped)
When you push theCAMERAbutton or shift
the selector lever into the “R” (Reverse) position
while the power switch is in the ON position, the
Around View Monitor operates. The monitor
displays various views of the position of the
vehicle.
Available views:
. Bird’s-eye View
The surrounding view of the vehicle.
. Front-side View
The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
. Front View
The view to the front of the vehicle.
. Rear View
The view to the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in situations such as slot parking or parallel
parking.
There are some areas where the system will not
detect objects. When in the front or the rear
view display, an object below the bumper or on
the ground may not be detected
*1. When in
the bird’s-eye view, a tall object near the seam of
the camera detecting areas will not appear in the
monitor
*2.
WARNING
. The Around View Monitor is a con-
venience but it is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it
has areas where objects cannot be
viewed. The four corners of the
vehicle in particular, are blind spots
where objects do not appear in the
bird’s-eye, front, or rear views. Al-
ways look out the windows and
check with your own eyes to be sure
that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always oper-
ate the vehicle slowly.
. Do not use the Around View Monitor
with the outside mirror in the stored
position, and make sure that the lift
gate is securely closed when oper-
ating the vehicle using the Around
View Monitor.
. The distance between objects
viewed on the Around View Monitor
differs from the actual distance.
. The cameras are installed above the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the cameras.

HOW TO SEE EACH VIEW
WARNING
. The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used
as a reference only when the vehicle
is on a paved, level surface. The
distance viewed on the monitor is
for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the bird-
eye view as a reference. The lines
and the bird-eye view are greatly
affected by the number of occu-
pants, vehicle position, road condi-
tion and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with differ-
ent sized tires, the predictive course
line and the bird-eye view may be
displayed incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
further than they appear. When
driving the vehicle down a hill,

objects viewed in the monitor are
closer than they appear. Use the
mirrors or actually look to properly
judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course lines are
wider than the actual width and course.
Front and rear view
Front view
Rear viewGuiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
*A, are displayed on the
monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
. Red line
*1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
*2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
*3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
*4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
*5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines
*6:
Indicate the predictive course when operating
the vehicle. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the steering wheel is turned. The predictive course lines will
move depending on how much the steering
wheel is turned and will not be displayed while
the steering wheel is in the neutral position.
The front view will not be displayed when the
vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10 km/h).
WARNING
.
The distance between objects
viewed in the rear view may differ
from the actual distance. Objects in
the rear view will appear visually
opposite from those viewed in the
inside and outside mirrors.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
. The displayed lines on the rear view
will appear slightly off to the right
because the rear view camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.
Monitor system (if so equipped)9-5

9-6Monitor system (if so equipped)
CAUTION
When the monitor displays the front
view and the steering wheel turns about
90 degrees or less from the neutral
position, both the right and left pre-
dictive course lines
*6are displayed.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, a predictive course
line is displayed only on the opposite
side of the turn.
Bird’s-eye view
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead view of
the vehicle which helps confirm the vehicle
position and the predictive course to a parking
space. The vehicle icon
*1shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the distance between objects
viewed in the bird’s-eye view differs from the
actual distance.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
*2are
indicated in black.
After the power switch is placed to ON, the non-
viewable area
*2is highlighted in yellow for 3
seconds after the bird’s-eye view is displayed.
In addition, the non-viewable corners are dis-
played in red (blink for the first 3 seconds)
*3
to remind the drivers to be cautious.
WARNING
. Objects in the bird’s-eye view will
appear further than the actual dis-
tance because the bird’s-eye view is
a pseudo view that is processed by
combining the views from the cam-
eras on the outside mirrors, the
front and the rear of the vehicle.
. Tall objects, such as a curb or
vehicle, may be misaligned or not
displayed at the seam of the views.
. Objects that are above the camera
cannot be displayed. .
The view for the bird’s-eye view may
be misaligned when the camera
position alters.
. A line on the ground may be mis-
aligned and is not seen as being
straight at the seam of the views.
The misalignment will increase as
the line proceeds away from the
vehicle.

Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the width and the
front end of the vehicle are displayed on the
monitor.

HOW TO HANDLE DISPLAY
The display is a liquid crystal display and should
be handled with care.
WARNING
Never disassemble the display. Some
parts utilize extremely high voltage.
Touching them may result in serious
personal injury.
Characteristics of liquid crystal dis-
play
.If the temperature inside the vehicle is
especially low, the display will stay relatively
dim or the movement of the images may be
slow. These conditions are normal. The
display will function normally when the
interior of the vehicle has warmed up.
. Some pixels in the display are darker or
brighter than others. This condition is an
inherent characteristic of liquid crystal dis-
plays, and it is not a malfunction.
. A remnant of the previous display image may
remain on the screen. This screen burn is
inherent in displays, and it is not a malfunc-
tion.
