When you push the button or shift the
gear selector lever into the R (Reverse) position
while the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
Around View Monitor operates. The monitor displays
various views of the position of the vehicle. NOTE
At first operation, the corner lines are blinking
yellow for about 3 seconds. This is not a malfunc-
tion but a reminder to be cautious.
Available views:
Bird’s-eye View
The surrounding view of the vehicle.
Front-side View
The view around and ahead of the front passen-
ger’s side wheel.
Front view
The view to the front of the vehicle.
Rear view
The view to the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel parking.
WARNING
The Around View Monitor is intended for day
time use. Do not use the system in bad light
conditions.
The Around View Monitor is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper vehicle
operation because it has areas where objects
cannot be viewed. Always visually check to be
sure that it is safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always operate the vehicle slowly.

AROUND VIEW MONITOR (where fitted)
4-4Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Do not use the Around View Monitor with the
outside mirror in the stored position, and
make sure that the back door is securely
closed when operating the vehicle using the
Around View Monitor.
The distance between objects viewed on the
Around View Monitor differs from the actual
distance.
The cameras are installed above the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the rear
number plate. Do not put anything on or cover
the cameras.
When washing the vehicle with high-pressure
water, be sure not to spray it around the cam-
eras. Otherwise, water may enter the camera
unit causing water condensation on the lens,
a malfunction, fire or an electric shock.
Do not strike the cameras. They are precision
instruments. Doing so could cause a malfunc-
tion or cause damage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock.
In some areas the system will not detect ob-
jects. When in the front or the rear view dis-
play, an object below the bumper or on the
ground may not be detected
j1 . When in the
bird’s-eye view, a tall object near the seam of
the camera detecting areas will not appear in
the monitor
j2.
Due to electromagnetic radiation a red cross
might appear in the monitor. This is normal.
Check surroundings for safety. Move the ve-
hicle away from the source of the interfer-
ence if possible. If the red cross does not dis-
appear contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.

GUIDE LINES
WARNING
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
line should be used as a reference only when
the vehicle is on a paved, level surface. The
distance viewed on the monitor is for refer-
ence only and may be different than the ac-
tual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the bird’s- eye view are greatly affected by the number
of occupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road
condition and road grade.
If the tyres are replaced with different sized
tyres, the predictive course line and the bird’s-
eye view may be displayed incorrectly.
When driving the vehicle up a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are further than they
appear. When driving the vehicle down a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear. Use the mirrors or actually look
to properly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course lines
are wider than the actual width and course.
Front and rear view
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width and
distances to objects with reference to the vehicle
body line
jA , are displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.

Vehicle width guide lines
j5:
Indicate the vehicle width when reversing.
Predictive course lines
j6:
Indicate the predictive course when operating the
vehicle. The predictive course lines will be displayed
on the monitor when the steering wheel is turned.
The predictive course lines will move depending on
how much the steering wheel is turned and will not
be displayed while the steering wheel is in the neu-
tral position.
The front view will not be displayed when the vehicle
speed is above 10 km/h (6 MPH).
WARNING
The distance between objects viewed in the
rear view differs from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the rear
view will appear visually opposite than when
viewed in the rear view and outside mirrors.
On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predictive
course line and the actual course line.
If the battery is disconnected or becomes dis-
charged, the predictive course lines may be
displayed incorrectly. If this occurs visit a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
If predictive course lines are displayed incor-
rectly visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
The displayed lines on the rear view will ap-
pear slightly off to the right because the rear
view camera is not installed in the rear centre
of the vehicle.
NOTE
When the monitor displays the front view and the
steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less
from the neutral position, both the right and left
predictive course lines
j6 are displayed. When
the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or
more, a line is displayed only on the opposite
side of the turn.
Bird’s-eye view
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead view of the
vehicle which helps to confirm the vehicle position.
The vehicle icon
j1 shows the position of the ve-
hicle.
NOTE
The size of the vehicle icon on the bird’s-eye
view may differ somewhat from the actual ve-
hicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover are indi-
cated in black.
At first operation, the corner lines
j2 on all four cor-
ners of the vehicle icon are blinking yellow for about
3 seconds. The four corners
j3 of the vehicle are
displayed in red.
NOTE
Corner lines
j2 blink (yellow) on all four corners
of the vehicle icon as a reminder to be cautious.
This is not a malfunction.
WARNING
Objects in the bird’s-eye view will appear fur-
ther than the actual distance because the
bird’s-eye view is a pseudo view that is pro-
cessed by combining the views from the cam-
eras on the outside mirrors, the front and the
rear of the vehicle.NAA1236
Bird’s-eye view
4-8Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Tall objects, such as a kerb or vehicle, may be
misaligned or not displayed at the seam of
the views.
Objects that are above the camera cannot be
displayed.
The view for the bird’s-eye view may be mis-
aligned when the camera position alters.
A line on the ground may be misaligned and is
not seen as being straight at the seam of the
views. The misalignment will increase as the
line proceeds away from the vehicle.
*: For the Right-Hand Drive (RHD) models, the screen layout will be opposite.
Front-side view
CAUTION
The actual distance to objects may differ from
the distance shown. Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate width
and the front end of the vehicle are displayed on the
monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line
j1 shows the front part of
the vehicle.
The side-of-vehicle line
j2 shows the vehicle width
including the outside mirror.
The extensions
j3 of both the frontj1 and sidej2
lines are shown with a green dotted line.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTIVE
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The distance guide line and the vehicle width guide
line on the front and the rear view should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is on a level, paved
surface. The distance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different than the actual
distance between the vehicle and displayed objects.
Moving to a steep uphill
When moving the vehicle up a hill, the distance guide
lines and the vehicle width guide lines are shown
closer than the actual distance. For example, the
display shows 1 m (3 ft) to the place
jA , but the
actual1m(3ft)d istance on the hill is the placejB.
Note that any object on the hill is viewed in the moni-
tor further than it appears.

Moving near a projecting object
The predictive course linesjA do not touch the
object in the display. However, the vehicle may hit
the object if it projects over the actual moving
course. There may be a small visible distance between the
vehicle and the object in the bird’s-eye viewjBon
the monitor. However, the actual distance may be
smaller than displayed and the vehicle may hit the
object.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SCREEN
VIEW
To adjust the display brightness of the Around View
Monitor, use the settings described in the sepa-
rately provided NISSAN Connect owner’s manual.
Do not adjust the settings while the vehicle is mov-
ing. Make sure the handbrake is firmly applied.
OPERATING TIPS
The screen displayed on the Around View Moni-
tor will automatically return to the previous screen
3 minutes after the button has been
pushed while the gear selector lever is in a posi-
tion other than the R (Reverse) position.
The display of images on the screen may be
delayed after screens are switched. Objects in
the Around View Monitor may be distorted mo-
mentarily until the Around View Monitor screen
is displayed completely.
When the temperature is extremely high or low,
the screen may not display objects clearly. This
is not a malfunction.
When strong light directly shines on the camera,
objects may not be displayed clearly. This is not
a malfunction.
Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen due to light reflections. This is not a mal-
function.
The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
This is not a malfunction.
The colours of objects on the Around View Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the actual
object.
Objects on the monitor may not be clear and the
colour of the object may differ in a dark location
or at night. This is not a malfunction.
There may be differences in clearness between
each camera view of the bird’s-eye view.
If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera, the
Around View Monitor may not display objects
clearly. Clean the camera.
CAUTION
Do not scratch lenses when cleaning the cam-
era.
Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean
the camera. This will cause discolouration. To
clean the camera, wipe with a cloth that has
been dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent and then wipe with a dry cloth.
Do not damage the camera because the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth that has been damp-
ened with a mild detergent diluted with water.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine SIDE AND CENTRE VENTS
The direction of the air flow can be adjusted byjA
opening,jB closing orjC adjusting.
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.
For more information on the Stop/Start Sys-
tem, see “Stop/Start System (where fitted)”
in the “5. Starting and driving” section.
