Air conditioner filter (where fitted)
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. For filter replace-
ment, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
The filter should be replaced if the airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily during air conditioning system operation.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system (where fitted) in your
NISSAN vehicle is charged with an environmentally
friendly refrigerant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAMThis refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing your vehicle’s air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section of this manual.

AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
Radio
•Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.
•Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
•Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
•During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this oc-
curs, remove the CD and dehumidify or ventilate
the player completely.
•The player may skip while driving on rough roads.

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.
RUNNING-IN SCHEDULE BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
5-2Starting and driving

WARNING
•Be careful not to burn yourself with exhaust
gases.
•Do not park the vehicle over flammable mate-
rials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags,
as they may burn easily.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
The diesel particulate filter reduces the amount of
materials that affect the environment by collecting
the particulate matter included in exhaust gases.
Particulate matter that has accumulated in the filter
is automatically burned and converted into harmless
substances while driving the vehicle.
CAUTION
The filter becomes extremely hot after burning
particulate matter.
If the diesel particulate filter warning light comes on,
it indicates that particulate matter has accumulated
in the filter to the specified limit. Particulate matter
collected in the filter cannot be burned under low
speed driving conditions.
As soon as safely possible, drive the vehicle at a
high speed (more than approximately 60 km/h (37.5
MPH) until the filter warning light goes out. Always
conform to local regulations.
When the accumulated particulate matter has been
completely burned, the filter warning light will go
out.
WARNING
•If the vehicle continues to be driven at a low
speed with the diesel particulate filter warn-
ing light illuminated, the fail-safe will limit en-
gine revolutions and/or torque. In this case,
the engine oil must be replaced and the pro-
cess of burning accumulated particulate mat-
ter must be carried out by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
•Use engine oil for diesel particulate filter
equipped models. For details, see “Capaci-
ties and recommended fuel/lubricants” in the
“9. Technical information” section.Driving your vehicle to fit the circumstances is es-
sential for your safety and comfort. As a driver, you
should be the one who knows best how to drive in
the given circumstances.
ENGINE COLD START PERIOD
Due to the higher engine speeds when the engine is
cold, extra caution must be exercised when select-
ing a gear during the engine warm-up period after
starting the engine.
LOADING LUGGAGE
Loads, their distribution and the attachment of equip-
ment (coupling devices, roof luggage carriers, etc.)
will change the driving characteristics of the vehicle
considerably. Driving style and speed must be ad-
justed accordingly.
DRIVING ON WET ROADS
•Avoid starting off, accelerating and stopping sud-
denly.
•Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
•Extra distance should be kept from the vehicle in
front.
•When water covers the road surface in puddles,
small streams, etc, REDUCE SPEED to prevent
aquaplaning which will cause skidding and loss
of control. Worn tyres increase this risk.
DRIVING UNDER WINTER
CONDITIONS
•Drive safely.
