ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIVING (4WD models)
This vehicle will handle and manoeuvre differently from an ordinary passenger
vehicle, because it has a higher centre of gravity for off-road use. As with other
vehicles with features of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or an accident.
Be sure to read “On-pavement and off-road driving precautions” and “Four-
wheel drive (4WD)” in the “5. Starting and driving” section of this manual.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
CAUTION
An improperly disposed battery can harm the environment. Always confirm
local regulations for battery disposal.
Examples of the batteries that the vehicle contains:
Vehicle battery
Remote controller battery (for Intelligent Key and/or Remote keyless entry
system)
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor battery
Remote controller battery (for Mobile Entertainment system)
If in doubt, contact your local authority, or a NISSAN dealer, or a qualified work-
shop for advice on disposal.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
Your chances of being injured in an accident and/or
the severity of injury may be greatly reduced if you
are wearing your seat belt and it is properly ad-
justed. NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of
your passengers to buckle up every time you drive,
even if your seating position is equipped with an air
bag.
WARNING
Be sure to observe the following warnings when
using seat belts. Failure to do so could increase
the chance and/or severity of injury in an acci-
dent.
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony
structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing
the lap section of the belt across the abdomi-
nal area must be avoided.
No modifications or additions should be made
by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to re-
move slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort to provide
the protection for which they have been de-
signed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe impact even
if damage to the assembly is not obvious.

Page 32 of 297
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driver
and front passenger air bags, side air bags, curtain
air bags and pre-tensioner seat belt system.
Front air bag system:this system can help cushion
the impact force to the face and chest of the driver
and front passenger in certain frontal collisions.
NOTE
For further information about the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation system see “Front pas-
senger air bag deactivation system” later in this
section.
Side air bag system: this system can help cushion
the impact force to the chest area of the driver and
front passenger in certain side impact collisions.
The side air bag is designed to inflate on the side
where the vehicle is impacted.
Curtain air bag system: this system can help cush-
ion the impact force to the head of an occupant in
the front and rear outer seating position. Curtain air
bags are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
SRS is designed to supplementthe crash protec-
tion provided by the driver and front passenger seat
belts and is not designed to substitute them. Seat
belts should always be correctly worn and the driver
and front passenger seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument panel and front
door finishers. For additional information, see “Seat
belts” earlier in this section.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON or START position, the air bag warning light will illu-
minate. The air bag warning light will turn off
after approximately 7 seconds if the system is
operational. See “Warning/indicator lights and
audible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section
for further details.
The air bag will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or START position.
WARNING
Driver and front passenger air bags:
The air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the
event of a side impact, rear impact, roll over,
or lower severity frontal collision. Always wear
your seat belts to help reduce the risk or se-
verity of injury in various kinds of accidents.
The seat belts and the air bags are most ef-
fective when you are sitting back and upright
in the seat. Air bags inflate with great force. If
you are unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting
sideways or out of position in any way, you
are at greater risk of injury or death in a crash
and may also receive serious or fatal injuries
from the air bag if you are up against it when
it inflates.
WARNING
Never let children ride unrestrained or extend
their hands or face out of the window. Do not
attempt to hold them on your lap or in your
arms. Some examples of dangerous riding
positions are shown in the previous illustra-
tions.
Children may be severely injured or killed if
not properly restrained when the supplemen-
tal front air bags or supplemental side air bags
inflate. Preteens and children should be prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat if possible.

Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-13
Page 33 of 297
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Never install a child restraint in the front seat
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.

tion process is normally automatic and not visible to
the driver.
Regeneration restrictions:
Driving conditions such as frequent short journeys
or stop/start driving can result in excessive build up
of carbon in the filter. When this happens the DPF
warning light will illuminate (and a message will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display, see “Vehicle
information display” later in this section) to inform
you that the vehicle must be driven in a particular
manner to begin regeneration.
When the DPF warning light is illuminated, provided
that legal and safety conditions allow, the vehicle
should be driven at a speed of over 60 km/h (37.5
MPH) until the DPF warning light turns off. This pro-
cess can take up to 30 minutes to complete.
If regeneration fails:
Failure to react to the DPF warning light may lead to
saturation of the DPF system. If this happens the
Malfunction Indicator (MI)
will illuminate indi-
cating that a Service Regeneration by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop is required. The engine
speed may also be limited to 3,000 rpm to protect
the DPF system.
NOTE
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
to perform a forced regeneration.
Electronic Power Assisted
Steering (EPAS) warning light
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, the EPAS warning light illuminates. This means
the system is operational.
If the warning light remains illuminated after the en-
gine has been started, there will be no power steer-
ing assistance: the vehicle may be driven using the
mechanical steering system although it is not rec-
ommended as the effort required to turn the steer-
ing wheel will be significantly increased compared
to normal operation.
WARNING
If the EPAS warning light illuminates while
driving, stop as soon as safely possible.
In certain circumstances, factors external to
the EPAS system may contribute to the illumi-
nation of the warning light. If the warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible if driving, turn the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position for approximately 20 sec-
onds and then turn the ignition switch to the
ON position again. If the light remains illumi-
nated, we recommend that you contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
See “Power steering system” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for further details on the EPAS sys-
tem.
Engine oil pressure warning light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving, or
stays on once the engine is started, pull off the road
at a safe area, stop the engine immediatelyand call
a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil pressure
warning light on could cause serious damage to
the engine.
NOTE
The [Оil lеvеll оw] message indication is dis-
played for 5 seconds after the ignition switch has
been turned to the ON position. See “Vehicle in-
formation display” later in this section.
Front passenger air bag
deactivated (OFF) warning light
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion the front passenger air bag deactivated (OFF)
warning light
, located in the combination
meter, illuminates for approximately 7 seconds and
then goes off. This means the system is operational.
The light warns of front passenger air bag status. If
the front passenger air bag has been deactivated,
the light comes on and stays on as long as the front
passenger air bag switch remains in the OFF posi-
tion.
