in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to 0 (Empty) after the

come on. Refuel as soon as possible.
After a few driving trips. the
light
should turn off. If the light remains on
after a few driving trips, have the vehicle
inspected. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● For additional information, refer to
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
this section. This unit measures terrestrial magnetism and in-
dicates the heading direction of the vehicle.
With the ignition placed in the ON position, press

1. With the display turned on, press and holdthe
switch for about 9 seconds. The
display will read “C.”
2. Calibrate the compass by driving the vehicle in three complete circles at a maximum
speed of 5 mph (8 km/h).
3. After completing the circles the display should return to normal.
● If the compass deviates from the correct
indication soon after repeated adjustment, it
is recommended you have the compass
checked at an authorized NISSAN dealer.
● The compass may not indicate the correct
compass point in tunnels or while driving up
or down a steep hill. (The compass returns
to the correct compass point when the ve-
hicle moves to an area where the geomag-
netism is stabilized.)CAUTION
● Do not install a ski rack, antenna, etc.,
which are attached to the vehicle by
means of a magnet. They affect the op-
eration of the compass.
● When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as it may
cause the liquid cleaner to enter the
mirror housing.

washer fluid concentrates may perma-
nently stain the grille if spilled while
filling the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir. ●
Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid con-
centrates with water to the manufactur-
er’s recommended levels before pour-
ing the fluid into the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir. Do not use the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir to

The warning systems switch is used to turn on
and off the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
that is activated using the settings menu on the
vehicle information display.
When the warning systems switch is turned off,
the indicator
1on the switch is off. The indicator
will also be off if the warning system is deacti-
vated using the settings menu.
The BSW system will turn on the BSW/RCTA
indicator light, located next to the outside mirrors,
if the radar detects a vehicle in the detection
zone. If the turn signal is activated in the direction
of the detected vehicle, a chime sounds twice
and the BSW/RCTA indicator light will flash. For additional information, refer to “Blind Spot Warn-
ing (BSW)” in the “Starting and driving” section
of this manual.
Tow mode should be used when pulling a heavy
trailer or hauling a heavy load. Driving the vehicle
in the tow mode with no trailer/load or light
trailer/light load will not cause any damage. How-
ever, fuel economy may be reduced, and the
transmission/engine driving characteristics may
feel unusual.
Push the tow mode switch to activate tow mode.
The indicator light on the instrument panel illumi-
nates when tow mode is selected. Push the tow
mode switch again to turn tow mode OFF.
Tow mode is automatically canceled when the

WARNING
● The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
● Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
● Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
