PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND
GATE OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit-
ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after several
seconds of transmission – which may not be long
enough for HomeLink® to pick up the signal
during training. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to “tim-
eout” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
training a gate operator
orgarage door opener
by using the “Training” procedures, replace
“Programming HomeLink®” Step 2with the fol-
lowing:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible damage to the
garage door opener components.
1. For additional information, refer to “Pro- gramming HomeLink®” step 1 in this sec-
tion.
2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold the desired HomeLink® button and the
hand-held transmitter button. During train-
ing, your hand-held transmitter may auto-
matically stop transmitting. Continue to
press and hold the desired HomeLink® but-
ton while you press and re-press (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter every 2 seconds
until the frequency signal has been learned.
The HomeLink® indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly after several seconds
upon successful training. DO NOT release

Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the de-
vice in a different location may reduce or elimi-
nate the noise.
FM radio reception
Maximum Signal Distances● FM: 25 to 30 miles (40 to 48 km)
● AM: 60 to 130 miles (97 to 209 km)
Range: FM range in normally limited to 25 to
30 miles (40 to 48 km) with monaural (single
station) FM having slightly more range than ste-
reo FM. External influences may sometimes inter-
fere with FM station reception even if the FM
station is within the 25 miles (40 km) . The
strength of the FM signal is directly related to the
distance between the transmitter and receiver.
FM signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same characteristics as light. For
example they will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position,
usually in conjunction with an increased distance
from the station transmitter, static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by lowering the
treble setting to reduce the treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and reflected
signals reach the receiver at the same time. The
signals may cancel each other, resulting in mo-
mentary flutter or loss of sound.AM radio reception
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can bounce off the iono-
sphere and be bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics, AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.

Fading: This occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
HD Radio™ Technology reception (for
U.S.)
HD Radio™ Technology reception needs to be
activated to receive HD Radio broadcasts. For
additional information, refer to “Audio settings” in
this section.
This enables you to receive radio broadcasts
digitally (where available) , providing a better
quality sound with clear reception. When this
feature is not activated or HD Radio broadcasts
are not available, you will receive analog radio
(AM/FM) broadcasts.
Satellite radio reception
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a mal-
function. Wait more then 10 minutes with the
satellite radio on and the vehicle outside of any
metal or large building for the satellite radio to
receive all of the necessary date.The satellite radio requires an active SiriusXM
Satellite Radio subscription. The satellite service
is available only to those at least 18 and older in
the 48 contiguous United States.
The satellite radio performance may be affected if
the cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite
antenna.
The build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna
can affect satellite radio performance. Remove
the ice to restore satellite radio reception.

Your vehicle is equipped with a Bluetooth®
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a compatible Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phone, you can set up the wireless connection
between your cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module. With Bluetooth® wireless tech-
nology, you can make or receive a telephone call
with your cellular phone in your pocket.
Once a cellular phone is connected to the in-
vehicle phone module, the procedure for con-
necting the phone does not need to be per-
formed again. Your phone is automatically
selected by the in-vehicle phone module when the ignition switch is switched to the ON position
with the selected cellular phone turned on and
carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to five different Bluetooth®
cellular phones to the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular phone
at a time.
The Voice Recognition system supports phone
commands, so dialing a phone number using
your voice is possible. For additional information,
refer to “Voice Recognition system” in this
manual.
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
● Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4GHz) . Using the Bluetooth® and wire-
less LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disrupt communications and
could cause undesired noise. It is recom-
mended that you turn wireless LAN (Wi-Fi)
off when using the Bluetooth® functions.
● Set up the wireless connection between a
compatible cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the Bluetooth®
Hands-Free Pone System.

●Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ and search
for a recommended phone list.
● You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside the service area for your cellular phone network.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive radio waves, such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, behind a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked in order to prevent dialing.
● When the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice dur-
ing a call. ●
This Bluetooth® system supports Wide-
band speech, which enhances the sound
quality of phone calls placed over
Bluetooth®. To take advantage of this fea-
ture, the cellular device should be used on a
carrier supporting Adaptive MultiRate Wide-
band (AMR-WB) or HD voice technology.
The performance of AMR-WB may vary by
carrier and calling area. Consult your cellular
carrier if you experience issues with call
quality or connection.
● Immediately after the ignition switch is
turned ON, it may be impossible to receive a
call for a short period of time.
● Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the
in-vehicle phone module to prevent tone
quality degradation and wireless connection
disruption.
● While a cellular phone is connected through
the Bluetooth® wireless connection, the
battery of the cellular phone may discharge
quicker than usual.
● If the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone Sys-
tem seems to be malfunctioning, please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth/ for trouble-
shooting help. ●
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to be
emitted from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location may
reduce or eliminate the noise.
● Refer to the owner’s manual for the cellular
phone for information regarding the tele-
phone pairing procedure specific to your
phone, battery charging , and cellular phone
antenna, etc.
● The antenna display on the monitor may not
match the antenna display of some cellular
phones.
● The battery display on the monitor may not
match the battery display of some cellular
phones.
● Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to her the caller’s voice clearly as
well as to minimize echoes.
● If reception between callers is unclear, ad-
justing the incoming or outgoing call volume
may improve the clarity.

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) .
Phonebook cannot be downloaded. An error occurred during the phone pairing process. Re-register the Bluetooth® pairing information after delet-
ing the pairing information from both the cellular phone and
the vehicle system.

●Since the spare tire is not equipped with
the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted
or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will
not be indicated, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will flash for approximately
1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Have your tires replaced
and/or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by NISSAN could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
● Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors.
CAUTION
●The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with tire
chains or the wheels are buried in snow. ●
Do not place metalized film or any
metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the win-
dows. This may cause poor reception of
the signals from the tire pressure sen-
sors, and the TPMS will not function
properly.
Some devices and transmitters may temporarily
interfere with the operation of the TPMS and
cause the low tire pressure warning light to illu-
minate.
Some examples are: ● Facilities or electric devices using similar
radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
● If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is
being used in or near the vehicle.
● If a computer (or similar equipment) or a
DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
