PROCEDURE FOR STORING
MEMORYTwo positions can be stored in the automatic
drive positioner memory.Follow these proce-
dures to use the memory system.
1. Set the selector lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat, outside mirrors and
pedals to the desired positions by manually
operating each adjusting switch. For addi-
tional information, see “Seats” in the “1.
Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag
systems” section and “Pedal position adjust-
ment” earlier in this section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to
any positions other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
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 selected
positions are stored in the selected memory
(1 or 2). Pushing the unlock button on the
keyfobwithin this 5 seconds, will link the
selected memory to the keyfob.
When the link is completed, the indicator light
of the selected memory switch will blink for
approximately 5 seconds.
When you unlock the door with the link
completed keyfob, the driver’s seat will move
back and move to the memorized position.
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory and the memory
which is linked to the keyfob, will be deleted.
Confirming memory storage
Turn the ignition ON 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

km) and the distance to empty (dte — MI or km)
will appear on the screen when the “FUEL
ECON” button is pushed.Average fuel consumption
(Mpg or L/100 km)The average fuel consumption mode shows the
average fuel consumption since the last reset.
Resetting is done by pressing the “TRIP RESET”

display will show (----).
Distance to empty (dte — mile or km)The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can be
driven before refueling. The dte is constantly
being calculated, based on the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte
display will change to (*).
NOTE:

If the amount of fuel added while the
ignition switch is OFF is small, the dis-
play just before the ignition switch is
turned OFF may continue to be dis-
played.

When driving uphill or rounding curves,
the fuel in the tank shifts, which may
momentarily change the display.CLOCKThe digital clock displays time when the ignition

a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position,
usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter, static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control counterclockwise to reduce treble
response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other, result-
ing in momentary flutter or loss of sound.AM RADIO RECEPTIONAM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics. AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electricalpower lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTIONWhen the satellite radio is first installed or the
battery has been replaced, the satellite radio
may not work properly. This is not a malfunction.
Wait more than 10 minutes with satellite radio
ON for satellite radio to receive all of the neces-
sary data.
No satellite radio reception is available and “NO
SAT” is displayed when the SAT button is
pressed, unless optional satellite receiver and
antenna were factory installed (late availability
only/retrofit unavailable), and an XM
or
SIRIUS
TM
satellite radio service subscription is
active.
Satellite radio performance may be effected if
cargo carried on the roof rack blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite
radio antenna.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Cassette player
To maintain good quality sound,
NISSAN recommends using cassette
tapes of 60 minutes or shorter in length.

Cassette tapes should be removed fromthe player when not in use. Store cas-
settes in their protective cases and
away from direct sunlight, heat, dust,
moisture and magnetic sources.

Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to
become deformed. The use of deformed
cassettes may cause the cassette to jam
in the player.

Do not use cassettes with labels which
are peeling and loose. If used, the label
could jam in the player.

If a cassette has loose tape, insert a
pencil through one of the cassette hubs
and rewind the tape firmly around the
hubs. Loose tape may cause tape jam-
ming and wavering sound quality.

Over a period of time, the playback
head, capstan and pinch roller may col-
lect a tape coating residue as the tape is
played. This residue accumulation can
cause weak or wavering sound, and
should be removed periodically with a
head cleaning tape. If the residue is not
removed periodically, the player may
need to be disassembled for cleaning.

If the SEEK button is not pushed within 5
seconds, SCAN tuning moves to the next sta-
tion.
Station memory operations:
Eighteen (18) stations can be set for the FM, AM
and SAT band to the A, B and C preset button.
1. Choose preset channel A, B or C using the
preset select button.
2. Tune to the desired station using the SEEK,
SCAN or TUNE button and keep pushing any
of the desired station memory buttons (1 to
6) until a beep sound is heard. (The radio
mutes when the select button is pushed.)
3. The channel indicator will then come on and
the sound will resume. Memorizing is now
complete.
4. Other buttons can be set in the same manner.
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
blows, the radio memory will be cancelled. In
that case, reset the desired stations.
Radio data system (RDS):
RDS stands for Radio Data System, and is a
data information service transmitted by some
radio stations on the FM band (not AM band)
and/or SATELLITE band encoded within a regu-
lar radio broadcast. Currently, most RDS sta-tions are in large cities, but many stations are
now considering broadcasting RDS data.
RDS can display:

Station call sign, such as “WHFR 98.3”.

Station name, such as “The Groove”.

Music or programming type such as “Classi-
cal”, “Country”, or “Rock”.

Traffic reports about delays or construction.
If the station broadcasts RDS information, the
RDS icon is displayed.
Program type (PTY) (Category
(CAT)):
When PROG/RPT button is pressed for more
than 1.5 seconds during FM (SAT) mode, the
PTY (CAT) name of the current tuned station is
displayed. During this time if the PTY (CAT) data
code is zero, or the data is unreadable; the
display will show NONE.
1. PTY (CAT) selection mode
PTY (CAT) name selection can be done by
the up/down TUNE button
or
in
the PTY (CAT) selection mode.
It is possible to shift the PTY (CAT) name by one
step, with one push of the up/down tuning
button
or
.PTY name selection can also be achieved by
pressing the preset buttons.
Initial PTY names are stored in the preset but-
tons; but these can be changed by pressing the
preset buttons for less than 1.5 seconds when
the desired PTY name is in the display.
2. PTY SEEK tuning
After selecting a PTY name, push the SEEK
button
or
for less than 0.5 sec-
onds within 10 seconds. Tuning to the PTY
