Automatic operation (AUTO)
This mode may be normally used all year round as
the system automatically works to keep a constant
temperature. Air flow distribution and fan speed are
also controlled automatically.NOTE
The air conditioner cooling function operates only
when the engine is running.
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating:
1. Turn the fan speed control dial and air flow con-
trol dial to the AUTO position.
2. If the A/C indicator does not illuminate, press the
A/C button to switch on the air conditioner. (The
A/C indicator will illuminate.)
3. Turn the temperature dial for the desired tem-
perature.
4. Press the air intake button until both the indica-
tors(Outside air) and(Air recircula-
tion) are off. The intake air will be controlled auto-
matically between the air recirculation and out-
side air modes.
•The temperature of the passenger compartment
will be maintained automatically. Air flow distri-
bution and fan speed are also controlled auto-
matically.
•A visible mist may be seen coming from the ven-
tilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
Heater operation (A/C OFF):
Use this mode for heating purposes only.
1. Turn the fan speed control dial and air flow con-
trol dial to the AUTO position.
2. If the A/C indicator is illuminated, press the C>button to switch off the air conditioner. (The
A/C indicator light will turn off.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial for the desired
temperature.
4. Press the air intake button until both the indica-
tors
(Outside air) and(Air recircula-
tion) are off. The intake air will be controlled auto-
matically between the air recirculation and out-
side air modes.
•Do not set the temperature lower than the out-
side air temperature. Otherwise the system may
not work properly.
•This mode is not recommended when the win-
dows fog up.
•If the windows fog up, use dehumidified heating
instead of the A/C off heating.

During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations for the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow the
recommendations may result in shortened engine
life and reduced engine performance.
•Avoid driving for long periods at a constant
speed, either fast or slow.
•Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
•Avoid quick starts.
•Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
•Do not tow a trailer during the first 800 km (500
miles).
NOTE
Models with K9K diesel engine will achieve top
performance only after approximately 5,000 km
(3,000 miles).
WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle can be
changed remarkably by any additional load and
its distribution as well as by adding optional
equipment (trailer couplings, roof racks, etc.).
Your driving style and speed have to be adjusted
accordingly. Especially when carrying heavy
loads, your speed must be reduced adequately.
•Make sure the area around the vehicle is free of
obstacles.
•Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake and clutch fluid, and window washer fluid
as frequently as possible, at least whenever you
refuel.
•Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Also check the tyre pressure for
proper inflation.
•Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section should be checked peri-
odically.
•Check that all windows and light lenses are
clean.
•Check that all doors are closed.
•Position the seat and adjust the head restraints.
•Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
•Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do likewise.
•Check the operation of the warning/indicator
lights when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position.
•Do not place hard or heavy objects on the dash-
board or rear parcel shelf in order to prevent
injury in the event of a sudden stop.

3. Disconnect the electrical connector from the rear
end of the headlight bulb.
4. Remove the cap.
5. Push and turn the retaining spring to loosen it.
6. Remove the headlight bulb. Do not shake or ro-
tate the bulb during the removal.
7. Install the new bulb in the reverse order of re-
moval and make sure that the cap is securely
sealed with the headlight body.
8. Reconnect the negative (—) battery cable and
close the bonnet.
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop, if
you need assistance for bulb replacement.
NOTE
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. The fog
is caused by a temperature difference between
the inside and the outside of the lens. This is not
a malfunction. If large droplets can be seen, then
contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.EXTERIOR LIGHTS

1. Open the backdoor.
2. Remove the bolts

then pull carefully with force straight towards the
rear of the vehicle, as illustrated.
NOTE
If in doubt or you encounter any difficulties
when removing the light unit from its attach-
ments
jD , contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
CAUTION
In order to prevent body and paint damage,
ensure the vehicle body around the light unit
is protected when using lever tools to remove
the light unit.
4. Install the new bulb and check afterwards the
light operation.
5. Install the light unit in the reverse order of re-
moval (step 3 and 2) and close the backdoor.In case of a flat tyre, see “Flat tyre” in the “6. In case
of emergency” section.
TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE
Periodically check the tyre pressure (including the
spare tyre). An incorrect tyre pressure may ad-
versely affect tyre life and vehicle handling.
NOTE
Incorrectly inflated tyres can also lead to poor
steering ability and make the driver suspect a
steering problem: keep the vehicle’s tyres in-
flated to the correct pressure at all times.
The tyre pressure should be checked when tyres
are COLD. Tyres are considered COLD after the
vehicle has been parked for three or more hours, or
driven less than 1.6 km (1 mile). COLD tyre pres-
sures are shown on the tyre placard affixed to the
driver’s side centre pillar.
Insufficient pressure can lead to an overheating of
the tyre and subsequent internal damage. At high
speeds, this could result in tread separation and
even bursting of the tyre.
TYPES OF TYRES
CAUTION
•When changing or replacing tyres, be sure all
four tyres are of the same type (i.e., summer,
all season or snow) and construction.
•A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop may
be able to help you with information about
tyre type, size, speed rating and availability.
•Replacement tyres may have a lower speed
rating than the factory equipped tyres, and
may not match the potential maximum vehicle
speed. Never exceed the maximum speed rat-
ing of the tyre.
All season tyres
NISSAN specifies all season tyres on some models
to provide good performance for use all year around,
including snowy and icy road conditions. All season
tyres are identified by ALL SEASON and/or M&S
on the tyre sidewall. Snow tyres have better snow
traction than all season tyres and may be more ap-
propriate in some areas.
Summer tyres
NISSAN specifies summer tyres as standard fit.
These tyres provide superior performance under
typical mild weather conditions.
If you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy
conditions, NISSAN recommends the use of SNOW
or ALL SEASON tyres on all four wheels.
Snow tyres
If snow tyres are needed, it is necessary to select
tyres equivalent in size and load rating to the original
equipment tyres. If you do not, it can adversely af-
fect the safety and handling of your vehicle.
Generally, snow tyres will have lower speed ratings
than factory equipped tyres and may not match the
potential maximum vehicle speed. Never exceed the
maximum speed rating of the tyre.
For additional traction on icy roads, studded tyres
