Supplemental front air bag systemThe driver supplemental air bag is located in the
center of the steering wheel; the front passenger
supplemental air bag is mounted in the instru-
ment panel above the glove box. These systems
are designed to meet optional certification re-
quirements under U.S. regulations. They are also
permitted in Canada. The optional certification
allows front air bags to be designed to inflate
somewhat less forcefully than previously.How-
ever, all of the information, cautions and
warnings in this manual still apply and
must be followed.The front air bags are
designed to inflate in higher severity frontal
collisions, although they may inflate if the forces
in another type of collision are similar to those of
a higher severity frontal impact. They may not
inflate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle dam-
age (or lack of it) is not always an indication of
proper supplemental air bag operation.
When the supplemental front air bag inflates, a
fairly loud noise may be heard, followed by
release of smoke. This smoke is not harmful and
does not indicate a fire. Care should be taken
not to inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breathing
condition should get fresh air promptly.
Supplemental front air bags, along with the use
of seat belts, helps to cushion the impact force

You can only drive your vehicle using the master
keys which are registered to the Nissan Vehicle
Immobilizer System (NVIS) components in your
vehicle. These keys have a transponder chip in
the key head.
The keys can be used for the door, back door or
glove box locks.
Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Record the key number on the key number plate
supplied with your keys and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), not in the vehicle.
NISSAN does not record any key number so it is
very important to keep track of your key number
plate.A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be
duplicated by your NISSAN dealer.
Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System (NVIS) keys:
The key number is necessary when you need
extra Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System keys.
As many as 5 Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System
keys can be used with one vehicle. New keys
must be registered to the Nissan Vehicle Immo-
bilizer System components in your vehicle by
your NISSAN dealer. At this time, you should
bring all Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System keys
that you have to your NISSAN dealer for regis-
tration. This is because the registration process
will erase all memory of the Nissan Vehicle
Immobilizer System components.
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with salt water. This
could affect system function.
WARNING

Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from uninten-
tionally opening the doors, and will
help keep out intruders.

Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.

Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.

Installing the spare tireThe spare tire is designed for emergency
use. See specific instructions under the
heading “Wheels and tires” in the “Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface
between the wheel and hub.
2. Carefully put the wheel on and tighten the
wheel nuts finger tight.
3. With the wheel nut wrench, tighten wheel
nuts alternately and evenly until they are tight.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touchesthe ground. Then, with the wheel nut wrench,
tighten the wheel nuts securely in the se-
quence as illustrated (
1,2,3,4,5,6).
Lower the vehicle completely.
WARNING

Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause the
wheel to become loose or come off.
This could cause an accident.

Do not use oil or grease on the wheel
studs or nuts. This could cause the
nuts to become loose.
Retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle
has been driven for 600 miles (1,000 km)
(also in cases of a flat tire, etc.). As soon as
possible tighten the wheel nuts to the
specified torque with a torque wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
98 ft-lb (133 N⋅m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to
specification at all times. It is recom-
mended that wheel nuts be tightened to
specification at each lubrication interval.
Adjust tire pressure to the COLD pressure.COLD pressure:
After vehicle has been parked for three
hours or more or driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
COLD tire pressures are shown on the tire
placard/Tire and Loading Information label
affixed to the glove box lid.
