SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The antenna display is different between the vehicle screen
and the screen on a cellular phone. Making or receiving a
call is unavailable even though the antenna display indi-
cates that it is possible to do so. The antenna display varies depending on the model of cel-
lular phone.
This does not indicate a malfunction. The antenna display
and remaining battery level shown on the navigation screen
may be different from those shown on the cellular phone
screen. Use them as a reference.
A voice cannot be heard clearly when using a cellular
phone behind tall buildings. Some structures such as tall buildings, etc. may cause ir-
regular reflection of radio waves or completely shut out ra-
dio waves that are used for cellular phones. This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard when using a cellular phone under/near ar-
eas of elevated railroads, high voltage electric power
cables, traffic signals, or neon billboards, etc. Electromagnetic waves that are generated from radio de-
vices may adversely affect the cellular phone.
This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard in the sound from the audio system while
using a cellular phone. Radio waves that are generated from a cellular phone may
adversely affect the sound from the audio system. This is not a malfunction.
The sound skips. The cellular phone may have turned on the wireless LAN
(Wi-Fi) . Turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) .

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The USB memory device cannot operate with Voice
Recognition. Depending on the device, an iPhone® or iPod® may be
recognized as a USB memory device. This is not a malfunction.
More than one audio device is connected to the USB port. Only one audio device can be operated with the Voice Recognition system even when multiple numbers of de-
vices are connected. Select an audio source to operate
with the Voice Recognition system.
The USB/iPod® operation screen is grayed out. The audio device is not connected. Connect an audio device to the system.
An audio source to be operated with the Voice Recognition
system has not been selected. Select an audio source to be operated with the Voice Rec-
ognition system.
An error message is displayed when trying to select a track
and operate the USB/iPod®. The track information is being processed for registration by
the system. Song information will be loaded into the system when a
new audio device is registered for the first time or when
the song information in the pre-registered device has been
changed. Wait for the loading to complete (this may take
from a few minutes up to an hour) .
The number of songs stored on the connected audio de-
vice exceeds its capacity. Decrease the number of songs stored on the audio device.
No song is stored on the audio device. Store songs on the connected audio device. Storing songs
with information such as artist name, album name, song
name, and playlist, etc. will make Voice Recognition song
search available.
The Navigation item is not displayed in the voice operation
menu screen. Voice Recognition command preparation for the navigation
system is not completed immediately after the system is
started. Display any screen other than the Voice Recognition
screen, and then push the
switch.
The system does not correctly recognize a Point of Interest
(POI) name spoken. There are some rare cases where a POI is unavailable by
Voice Recognition but the location can be found on the
map. This is not a malfunction. Consider using an alternative
search method, like street address.
Partial or alias name is spoken. For best results, speak the full name.
Some POI category names can only be searched when
nearby. This is not a malfunction.

NissanConnectSMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, processing speed
may vary, and system response delays or resets
may occur intermittently. This does not indicate a
malfunction, and further information on system
operation can be found below.
System Start-Up
Due to the large number of features and capabili-
ties that the NissanConnect
SMneeds to load on
start-up, it may take up to a minute for all func-
tions (such as Apps) to be available. The system
will display “Now Loading All Apps...” during this
time.
System Response Delay
NissanConnect
SMuses an operating system like
those found on many computers, tablets and cell
phones. Like these devices, sometimes pro-
grams do not respond immediately and this may
temporarily delay system use.
In most situations, simply waiting a few moments
longer should be sufficient for the pending opera-
tions to complete.
If the system temporarily does not respond to
commands, the system can be easily reset. Sim-
ply push down the VOL/ON-OFF knob for at
least 5 seconds. The system will turn off and
restart. After restart, all functions should be available.
If a navigation route was set, the route should
resume automatically.
System Reset
As noted above, intermittent system resets may
occur during normal operation. You may also
wish to reset the system if you find that a particu-
lar feature is not loading or responding. Often, a
quick system reset will resolve any issue you may
be experiencing. After restart, all functions will be
available as described above.
System Updates
Like many digital devices, the NissanConnect
SM
is designed to allow for software updates as
enhancements are developed and additional fea-
tures added. If you have questions about system
performance, it is recommended that you contact
a NISSAN dealer to ensure that your vehicle has
had the latest available software installed.
Operating Tips
NissanConnect
SMprovides several methods of
operation to suit your preferences. The following
are suggested operating tips. ●
Operating the multi-function controller
steering wheel controls, or other controls
too quickly can cause a lag between the
control and the display. Operate the controls
carefully and allow the system to respond to
your request.
● NISSAN recommends using Voice Recog-
nition whenever possible to select options
while driving. Some touch-screen function-
ality is intentionally unavailable during driv-
ing. Please view the available voice com-
mands by pushing the
(TALK) switch
and then selecting a category on the display.
● When looking for a street address or Points
of Interest (POI) , remember that you can use
Connected Search and Assisted Search
features within NissanConnect
SMServices
to expand your search methods and results.
The Voice Recognition system recognizes a
defined set of commands. These commands
can be viewed in the display by pushing
the
(TALK) switch and then selecting
a category from the displayed list. The com-
mands can also be found in the Voice Rec-
ognition section under command list. For
additional information, refer to “Command
list” in this section.

Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient Driving
Tips to help you achieve the most fuel economy
from your vehicle.1. Use Smooth Accelerator and Brake
Pedal Application
● Avoid rapid starts and stops.
● Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application whenever possible.
● Maintain constant speed while commut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain Constant Speed
● Look ahead to try and anticipate and mini-
mize stops.
● Synchronizing your speed with traffic
lights allows you to reduce your number
of stops.
● Maintaining a steady speed can minimize
red light stops and improve fuel effi-
ciency.
3. Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
● Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to open windows to cool the vehicle
due to reduced engine load. ●
Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to use A/C to cool the vehicle due to
increased aerodynamic drag.
● Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling load.
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
● Observing the speed limit and not ex-
ceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where legally
allowed) can improve fuel efficiency due
to reduced aerodynamic drag.
● Maintaining a safe following distance be-
hind other vehicles reduces unnecessary
braking.
● Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
● Select a gear range suitable to road con-
ditions.
5. Use Cruise Control
● Using cruise control during highway driv-
ing helps maintain a steady speed.
● Cruise control is particularly effective in
providing fuel savings when driving on flat
terrains. 6.
Plan for the Shortest Route
● Utilize a map or navigation system to de-
termine the best route to save time.
7. Avoid Idling
● Shutting off your engine when safe for
stops exceeding 30–60 seconds saves
fuel and reduces emissions.
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
●
Automated passes permit drivers to use spe-
cial lanes to maintain cruising speed through
the toll and avoid stopping and starting.
9. Winter Warm Up
● Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel
economy.
●
Vehicles typically need no more than
30 seconds of idling at start-up to effec-
tively circulate the engine oil before driving.
● Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating
temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling.
10. Keeping your Vehicle Cool
● Park your vehicle in a covered parking
area or in the shade whenever possible.
● When entering a hot vehicle, opening the
windows will help to reduce the inside
temperature faster, resulting in reduced
demand on your A/C system.
FUEL EFFICIENT DRIVING TIPS
Starting and driving5-61

When planning to drive your NISSAN ve-
hicle in another country,you should first find
out if the fuel available is suitable for your vehi-
cle’s engine.
Using fuel with an octane rating that is too low
may cause engine damage. All gasoline vehicles
must be operated with unleaded gasoline. There-
fore, avoid taking your vehicle to areas where
appropriate fuel is not available.
When transferring the registration of your
vehicle to another country, state, province
or district, it may be necessary to modify the
vehicle to meet local laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle emis-
sion control and safety standards vary according
to the country, state, province or district; there-
fore, vehicle specifications may differ.
When any vehicle is to be taken into an-
other country, state, province or district and
registered, its modifications, transporta-
tion and registration are the responsibility
of the user. NISSAN is not responsible for
any inconvenience that may result.
