Compass display
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the
ªACCº or ªONº position. The direction will be
displayed.
Zone variation change procedure
The difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance. In
some areas, this difference can sometimes be
great enough to cause false compass read-
ings. Follow these instructions to set the vari-
ance for your particular location if this hap-
pens:
1. Establish your location on the zone map.
Record your zone number.
2. Push the ªON/OFFº switch in for five sec-
onds until the current zone entry number is
displayed.
3. Press the ªON/OFFº switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is displayed.
Once the desired zone number is displayed,
stop pressing the ªON/OFFº switch and the
display will show compass direction within a
few seconds.IIf a magnet is located near the compass
or the vehicle is driven where the terres-
trial magnetism is disturbed, the com-
pass display may not indicate the cor-
rect direction.
IIn places where the terrestrial magne-
tism is disturbed, the correction of the
direction starts automatically, extin-
guishing the direction bar. If turn is
made one or two times, the correction is
complete and the direction bar comes
back on.
Correction functions of the compass
display
The compass display is equipped with auto-
matic correction function. If the direction is not
shown correctly, carry out manual correction
procedure set out below.
Manual correction procedure
1. Push the switch for about 10 seconds. The
direction bar starts blinking.
2. Drive the vehicle slowly in an open and safe
area. The initial correction is completed
while turning one or two turns.
In places where the terrestrial magnetism
is extremely disturbed, the initial correc-
tion procedure may start automatically.The digital clock displays time when the igni-
tion key is in ªACCº or ªONº.
If the power supply is disconnected, the
clock will not indicate the correct time.
Readjust the time.Clock set (Adjustment)
Depressing the ªCLOCKº and the ªº
or ªº buttons together will set hours.

The fuel filler cap is a screw-on ratcheting
type. Tighten the cap clockwise until ratcheting
clicks are heard.
IGasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused or mis-
handled. Always stop the engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames or
sparks near the vehicle when refuel-
ing.IFuel may be under pressure. Turn the
cap one-half turn and wait for any
ªhissingº sound to stop, to prevent
fuel from spraying out and possible
personal injury. Then remove the cap.
IUse only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler
cap as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper opera-
tion of the fuel system and emission
control system. An incorrect cap can
result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury.
If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
If the fuel filler cap is not tightened prop-
erly, the Malfunction indicator light (MIL)
may come on.Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder while
refueling.

to observe the following as it may adversely
affect the Multiport fuel injection system and
other electronic parts depending on its instal-
lation location.
IKeep the antenna as far as possible
away from the Electric Control Mod-
ule.
IAlso keep the antenna wire more than
8 inches (20 cm) away from the Elec-
tro Injection harness. Do not route
the antenna wire next to any harness.
