WARNING
Never put anything on the tonneau cover, no
matter how small. Any object on it could cause
an injury in case of an accident or if the brakes
are applied suddenly.
Do not leave the tonneau cover in position
when it is disengaged from the grooves.
Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury
The child restraint top tether strap may be
damaged by contact with the tonneau cover
or items in the luggage compartment area.
Remove the tonneau cover from the vehicle
or store it in its storage space. Also, secure
any lose items in the luggage compartment.
Your child could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision if the top tether strap is dam-
aged.
The tonneau cover keeps the luggage compartment
contents hidden from the outside. It can only be
used when the 3rd row seats are folded down.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine When leaving your vehicle unoccupied:
Always remove the ignition key or Intelligent Key
(where fitted) and take it with you – even in your
own garage.
Close all windows completely and lock all doors.
Always park your vehicle where it can be seen.
At night, park in a well lit area.
If the vehicle is equipped with an alarm or immo-
bilization device, use it – even for short periods.
Do not leave children and pets in the vehicle
unattended.
Do not leave valuables on view to tempt a thief.
Always take your valuables with you. If you must
leave something in your vehicle, lock it in the lug-
gage compartment or hide it out of sight.
Do not leave the vehicle documents in your ve-
hicle. In the unfortunate event of your vehicle
being stolen, the documents will only help a thief
to sell the vehicle.
Do not leave articles on a roof rack as they are
particularly vulnerable. If possible, remove them
from the rack and lock them inside the vehicle.
Do not leave the spare key or Intelligent Key in
the vehicle – keep it in a safe place at home.
Do not leave a note of your vehicle’s key number
in the vehicle. A thief may break into the vehicle,
note the key number and return with a new key
and drive the vehicle.
WARNING
If the Electrically Power Assisted Steering
warning light (EPAS) illuminates while driv-
ing, the power assist for steering will be dis-
abled. Greater steering efforts are required to
operate the steering wheel, especially in
sharp turns and at low speed. Stop the ve-
hicle as soon as safely possible and contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop for fur-
ther assistance.
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 and wait for approximately
20 seconds, then turn the ignition switch to
the ON position again. If the light remains illu-
minated, we recommend you to contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. See
“Warning/indicator lights and audible
reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section for further details regarding
the EPAS warning light.
The EPAS (Electrically Power Assisted Steering)
system is designed to assist steering.
The steering may appear to feel slightly stiff follow-
ing parking manoeuvres including a great deal of
steering. This is not a malfunction; it is caused by a
control system designed to prevent the motor from overheating. No servicing is required. The EPAS
system will return to normal operation the next time
the vehicle is driven.
Similarly, the EPAS system may not provide full as-
sistance during periods of reduced battery voltage
but will recover once normal battery voltage is re-
stored.
If the EPAS warning light comes on while the engine
is running, it may indicate that the EPAS system is
not working properly. As result greater steering ef-
forts are required to steer the steering wheel, espe-
cially in sharp turns and at low speeds. Have the
system checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
NOTE
Incorrectly inflated tyres can lead to poor steer-
ing ability and make the driver suspect a steering
problem: keep the vehicle’s tyres inflated to the
correct pressure at all times.
CAUTION
Any malfunction or accident that could have dam-
aged the steering components (including actual
or attempted theft damage) should be reported
to a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
