without first deactivating the front passenger
air bag. An inflating supplemental front air bag
could seriously injure or kill your child. For
additional information, see “Child restraints”
later in this section.
WARNING
Side and curtain air bags:
The side and curtain air bag ordinarily will not
inflate in the event of a frontal impact, rear
impact or lower severity side collision. Always
wear your seat belts to help reduce the risk or
severity of injury in various kinds of accidents.
The seat belts, side and curtain air bags are
most effective when you are sitting well back
and upright in the seat. Side and curtain air
bags inflate with great force. Do not allow any-
one to place hands, legs or face near the side
and curtain air bags. Do not allow anyone sit- ting in the front seat to extend their hand out
of the window or lean against the door.
When sitting in the rear seat, do not hold onto
the seatback of the front seat. If the side air
bag inflates, the occupant may be seriously
injured. Be especially careful with children,
who should always be properly restrained.
Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks.
They may interfere with side air bag inflation.
NOTE
For an overview see “Air bag system ” in the “0. Il-
lustrated table of contents” section.
AIR BAG SYSTEM
Front air bags
The driver’s air bag is located in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger air bag is
mounted in the dashboard above the glove box. The
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. Conclusions
should not be drawn on the air bag’s operation ac-
cording to the vehicle’s state.
When the supplemental front air bags inflate, a fairly
loud noise may be heard, followed by a release of
smoke. This smoke is not harmful and does not indi-
cate a fire. However, care should be taken not to
inhale it, as it may cause irritation and choking. Oc- cupants with a history of breathing difficulties, such
as asthma, should get fresh air promptly.
Side and curtain air bags
The supplemental side air bags are located in the
outside of the seatback of the front seats. The
supplemental curtain air bags are located in the roof
side trims. The supplemental side air bags and cur-
tain air bags are designed to inflate in higher sever-
ity side collisions, although they may inflate if the

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine forces in another type of collision are similar to those
of a higher severity side impact. They are designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted.
They may not inflate in certain side collisions. Ve-
hicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indica-
tion of proper supplemental side air bag operation.
When the supplemental side air bag and curtain air
bag inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, fol-
lowed by a release of smoke. This smoke is not
harmful and does not indicate a fire. However, care
should be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irri-
tation and choking. Occupants with a history of
breathing difficulties, such as asthma, should get
fresh air promptly.
Supplemental side air bags, along with the use of
seat belts, help to cushion the impact force on the
chest of the front occupants. Curtain air bags help
to cushion the impact force to the head of occu-
pants in the front and rear outer seating positions.
They can help save lives and reduce serious inju-
ries. However, an inflating side air bag and curtain
air bag may cause abrasions or other injuries.
Supplemental side air bags and curtain air bags do
not provide restraint to the lower body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the
driver and passenger seated upright, and as far as
is practical, away from the side air bag. Rear seat
passengers should be seated as far away as practi-
cal from the door finishers and side roof rails. The
side air bags and curtain air bags inflate quickly in
order to help protect the front occupants. Because
of this, the force of the side air bag and curtain air
bag inflating can increase the risk of injury if theoccupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag and cur-
tain air bag will deflate quickly after the collision is
over.
WARNING
Directly after inflation, several air bag system
components will be hot. Do not touch them;
you may severely burn yourself.
No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the air bag sys-
tem. This is to prevent accidental inflation of
the air bag or damage to the air bag system.
Tampering with the air bag system may result
in serious personal injury. Tampering includes
making changes to the steering wheel and
the instrument panel assembly by placing ma-
terial over the steering pad and above the
dashboard, or by installing additional trim ma-
terial around the air bag system.
Do not attach any objects to the steering
wheel pad or to the instrument panel. Objects
attached to the steering wheel pad and in-
strument panel may become dangerous pro-
jectiles and cause injury if the air bag inflates.
Work on and around the air bag system should
be done by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Installation of electrical equipment
should be done by a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. The yellow SRS wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or discon-
nected. Unauthorised electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should not be used
on the air bag system.
* SRS wiring harnesses are covered with yellow insulation either just before the harness con-
nectors or on the complete harness, for easy
identification.
j1 SRS air bag warning labels
The warning labels are located on the surface
of the sun visor.
j2SRS front passenger air bag warning label
The warning label is located on the outer side
of the instrument panel (passenger side).
j3SRS side air bag warning label
The warning label is located on the side of the
passenger side centre pillar.
Tags are also sewn into the front seat covers.

HIGH LEVEL VENT (where fitted)
Press thebutton to switch the mild air flow from
the upper vent on or off. Use the upper vent on hot
days to let cool air flow along the roof to the rear
passengers; and on cold days to improve the de-
frosting or defogging of the windows with warm air.
WARNING
Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. On hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly fatal inju-
ries to people or animals.
Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to be-
come stale and the windows to fog up. It is
recommended that you use the outside air
mode in cold weather to keep the windows
clear.
Do not adjust the positioning of the heating/
ventilation or air conditioning controls while
driving.
NOTE
Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner is running,
and is safely discharged underneath your ve-
hicle.
Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.
Models with Stop/Start System:
Whilst the engine is stopped by the Stop/Start
System, selecting airflow to the front defog-
ger or switching on the rear defogger will
cause the engine the be automatically re-
started. Whilst the engine is running, selecting airflow
to the front defogger or switching on the rear
defogger will prevent the Stop/Start System
automatically stopping the engine.
The Stop/Start System will prevent unneces-
sary fuel consumption and exhaust emis-
sions. When the engine is stopped by the
Stop/Start System heater and air conditioner
performance may be reduced. To keep full
heater and air conditioner performance, re-
start the engine by pressing the Stop/Start
System OFF switch, or by turning the ignition
switch.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations for the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow the
recommendations may result in shortened engine
life and reduced engine performance.
Avoid driving for long periods at a constant
speed, either fast or slow.
Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
Avoid quick starts.
Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
Do not tow a trailer during the first 800 km (500
miles).
NOTE
Models with K9K diesel engine will achieve top
performance only after approximately 5,000 km
(3,000 miles).
WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle can be
changed remarkably by any additional load and
its distribution as well as by adding optional
equipment (trailer couplings, roof racks, etc.).
Your driving style and speed have to be adjusted
accordingly. Especially when carrying heavy
loads, your speed must be reduced adequately.
Make sure the area around the vehicle is free of
obstacles.
Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake and clutch fluid, and window washer fluid
as frequently as possible, at least whenever you
refuel.
Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Also check the tyre pressure for
proper inflation.
Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section should be checked peri-
odically.
Check that all windows and light lenses are
clean.
Check that all doors are closed.
Position the seat and adjust the head restraints.
Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do likewise.
Check the operation of the warning/indicator
lights when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position.
Do not place hard or heavy objects on the dash-
board or rear parcel shelf in order to prevent
injury in the event of a sudden stop.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driving your vehicle to fit the circumstances is es-
sential for your safety and comfort. As a driver, you
should be the one who knows best how to drive in
the given circumstances.
ENGINE COLD START PERIOD
Due to the higher engine speeds when the engine is
cold, extra caution must be exercised when select-
ing a gear during the engine warm-up period after
starting the engine.
LOADING LUGGAGE
Loads, their distribution and the attachment of equip-
ment (coupling devices, roof luggage carriers, etc.)
will change the driving characteristics of the vehicle
considerably. Driving style and speed must be ad-
justed accordingly.
DRIVING ON WET ROADS
Avoid starting off, accelerating and stopping sud-
denly.
Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
Extra distance should be kept from the vehicle in
front.
When water covers the road surface in puddles,
small streams, etc, REDUCE SPEED to prevent
aquaplaning which will cause skidding and loss
of control. Worn tyres increase this risk.
DRIVING UNDER WINTER
CONDITIONS
Drive safely.
Avoid starting off, accelerating or stopping sud-
denly.
Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
Avoid sudden steering actions.
Extra distance should be kept from the vehicle in
front.

WARNING
Never remove the key or turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK position while driving. The steering
wheel will lock and could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle. This could result in serious
vehicle damage or personal injury.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Unsecured cargo can be thrown around when
driving over rough terrain. Properly secure it so
that it will not be thrown forwards and cause
injury to you or your passengers.
To avoid raising the centre of gravity excessively,
do not exceed the rated capacity of the roof rack/
gear bin (where fitted) and evenly distribute the
load. Secure heavy loads in the luggage area as
far forwards and as low as possible. Do not equip
the vehicle with tyres larger than specified. This
could cause your vehicle to rollover.
Accelerating quickly, sharp steering manoeuvres
or sudden braking may cause loss of control.
Do not drive beyond the performance of the
tyres, even with 4WD. Sudden acceleration,
steering or braking may result in loss of control
and could cause the vehicle to become stuck.
If at all possible, avoid sharp turning manoeuvres,
particularly at high speeds. Your 4WD vehicle
has a higher centre of gravity than a 2WD ve-
hicle and can tip over more easily. The vehicle is
not designed for cornering at the same speeds
as conventional 2WD models any more than low
sports cars are designed to perform satisfacto-
rily under off-road conditions. Failure to operate
this vehicle correctly could result in loss of con-
trol and/or a rollover accident.
Do not grip the inside or spokes of the steering
wheel when driving off-road. The steering wheel
could jerk and injure your hands. Instead, drive
with your fingers and thumbs on the outside of
the rim.
Before operating the vehicle, ensure that the
driver and all passengers have their seat belts
fastened.
Avoid raising the centre of gravity by loading
things on the roof or equipping the vehicle with
tyres larger than specified in this manual.
Always drive with the floor mats in place as the
floor may become very hot. Particular care
should be taken if you are barefoot.
Lower your speed when encountering strong
crosswinds. With its higher centre of gravity your
NISSAN is more affected by gusty side winds.
Slower speeds ensure better vehicle control.
Be sure to check the brakes immediately after
driving in mud or water as specified in “Wet
brakes” later in this section.
Whenever you drive off-road through sand, mud
or water as deep as the wheel hub, more fre-
quent maintenance may be required. For details,
refer to the separately provided Warranty Infor-
mation and Maintenance Booklet.
Rinse the underside of the vehicle with fresh
water after driving through mud or sand. Re-
move any brush or sticks that are trapped.
Install the same size of winter tyres on all four (4)
wheels (such as studless tyres) or install snow
chains to the front wheels when driving on slip-
pery roads (e.g. after a snowfall) and drive care-
fully using 4WD.
Avoid parking your vehicle on steep hills. If you
get out of the vehicle and it rolls forwards, back-
wards or sideways, you could be injured.
