5. When the vehicle’s interior has warmed-up, or
before you leave the vehicle, be sure to turn the
seat heater system off.
CAUTION
•Do not use the seat heater system for a long
period of time when the engine is not running,
otherwise the battery could run down.
•Do not put anything on the seat that insulates
the heat, such as a blanket, cushion, seat
cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may overheat.
•Do not place anything hard or heavy on the
seat or pierce it with a pin or similar object.
This may damage the heater.
•Any liquid spilled on a heated seat should be
removed immediately with a dry cloth.
•When cleaning the seat, never use benzine,
thinner or any similar materials.
•If any abnormalities are found or the heating
does not operate, turn off the switch and have
the system checked by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.1.Power outlet

•The Intelligent Key contains a miniature radio
transmitter that may be affected when placed
near metal objects.
•Keep the Intelligent Key away from mobile
phones, lap-top computers and other metal
objects or electronics.
STARTING THE ENGINE WITH THE
INTELLIGENT KEY
See “Ignition knob (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section.
CAUTION
•Make sure you carry the Intelligent Key with
you when starting and driving the vehicle.
•If the Intelligent Key is too far away from the
passenger compartment, the vehicle may not
start.
WARNING
•Always look before opening any doors, to
avoid an accident with oncoming traffic.
•Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently
become involved in a serious accident.
SUPER LOCK SYSTEM (Right-hand
drive models)
WARNING
For Super Lock System equipped models, failure
to follow the precautions below may lead to haz-
ardous situations. Make sure the Super Lock Sys-
tem activation is always safely conducted.
•When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the
doors with the integrated keyfob. Doing so
will trap the occupants, since the Super Lock
System prevents the doors from being opened
from the inside of the vehicle.
•Only operate the integrated keyfob lock but-
ton when there is a clear view of the vehicle.
This is to prevent anybody from being trapped
inside the vehicle through the Super Lock
System activation.
Locking the doors with the integrated keyfob will
lock all doors including the back door and activate
the Super Lock System. This means that none ofthe doors can be opened from the inside, adding
extra security in case of break-in or theft.
The system will be released when the door is un-
locked with the integrated keyfob.
The Super Lock System will not activate when the
doors are locked with the power door lock switch or
the key.
Emergency situations
If the Super Lock System is activated due to a traf-
fic accident or other unexpected circumstances
while you are in the vehicle:
•Insert the key/emergency key in the ignition
switch, turn it to the ON position, the Super Lock
system will be released and all doors can be
unlocked.
•Open or break the door window on the front
passenger’s side, remove the protection cap on
the passenger’s side door handle, insert the key
into the passenger’s side door key cylinder and
turn it to the unlock position, after which you will
be able to open the door.
•Remove the key from the ignition switch and un-
lock the door using the integrated keyfob.
DOOR LOCKS
3-6Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
•Do not drive with the back door opened. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be
drawn into the vehicle.
•Closely supervise children when they are
around the vehicle to prevent them from play-
ing and being locked in the luggage compart-
ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked, with the back door
closed, when not in use, and prevent chil-
dren’s access to the vehicle’s keys.
NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (NATS)
The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for
approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or LOCK
position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.
NATS security warning light
The security warning light blinks whenever the igni-
tion switch is in the LOCK, “OFF” or Acc position.
This function indicates that NATS is equipped on
the vehicle.
If the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS) is mal-
functioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
key is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine will not
start, see your NISSAN dealer for NATS service
as soon as possible. Please bring all NATS keys
or NATS Intelligent Keys when visiting your
NISSAN dealer for service.
Additional information for RHD models
If the NATS is malfunctioning, this light will turn on
after flashing six times while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
However, if the NATS security warning light turns
off after the light has remained on for 15 minutes,

FUEL FILLER LID OPENER LEVER
A.LHD models
B.RHD models
To open the fuel filler lid, pull up the opener lever
j1 . To lock, close the fuel filler lid securely.
FUEL FILLER CAP
The fuel filler cap is a ratcheting type. Tighten the
cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks are heard.Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder
j1 while
refuelling.
WARNING
•Fuel is extremely flammable and highly explo-
sive under certain conditions. Always stop the
engine and do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks near the vehicle when refuelling.
•Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap half
a turn and wait for any hissing sound to stop,
in order to prevent fuel from spraying out and
causing possible personal injury.
•Use only a NISSAN fuel filler cap or exact
equivalent as a replacement. 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 mal-
function and possible injury.
CAUTION

WARNING
•The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
•Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone ei-
ther. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently
become involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to be-
come stale and the windows to fog up.
•Do not adjust the heating and air conditioning
controls while driving so that full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
NOTE
•Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner is running,
and is safely discharged underneath your ve-
hicle.
•Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.
