Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine ALARM SYSTEM (where fitted)
The alarm system provides visual and audible alarm
signals if parts of the vehicle are disturbed.
How to arm the alarm system
1. Close all doors, windows, back door and bon-net.
2. Lock the vehicle using the keyfob (lock button), for additional information, see “Integrated key-
fob/remote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section.
NOTE
If the vehicle is not fully locked, a door/bonnet/
back door is open, or the ignition switch is in the
ON position (after arming the system), the buzzer
will sound. After correctly closing, the buzzer will
stop.
Alarm system operation
The system will give the following alarm:
The siren sounds intermittently and all direction
indicators will flash.
The alarm automatically turns off after 28 sec-
onds.
The alarm is activated when:
The volumetric sensing system (ultrasonic sen-
sors) is triggered.
Any door/the back door is opened.
The bonnet is opened.
The ignition circuit is turned on without the own-
er’s key being used.
The alarm system will stop when:
The vehicle is unlocked using the keyfob unlock
button.
The ignition switch or ignition knob is turned to
the ON position with a registered NATS key.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by your NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
Ultrasonic sensors (where fitted)
The ultrasonic sensors (volumetric sensing) detect
movements in the passenger’s compartment. When
the alarm system is set to the armed position, it will
automatically switch on the ultrasonic sensors.
It is possible to exclude the ultrasonic sensors (e.g.
when leaving pets inside the car).
To exclude the ultrasonic sensors:
1. Turn the ignition switch 3 times within 7 seconds from the “OFF” to the ON position.
2. Close the door(s)/bonnet/back door and press the lock button
on the keyfob to lock all doors/
back door.
The ultrasonic sensors are now excluded from the
alarm system. All other functions of the system re-
main activated until the alarm system is disarmed
again.
NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (NATS)
The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or LOCK position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine jACamera
When the gear or selector lever (AT or CVT) is
moved into the R (Reverse) position, the monitor
(NISSAN Connect display) shows the view from the
rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary objects. It is intended to
help avoid damaging the vehicle when reversing.
However, the system will not detect small objects
below the bumper and may not detect objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
WARNING
The rear-view camera is a convenience but it
is not a substitute for proper reversing. Al-
ways turn your head and visually check that
the manoeuvre is safe to do so before revers-
ing. Always reverse slowly.
The distance from the objects viewed in the
rear-view monitor differs from actual distance because of the use of wide-angle lens. Ob-
jects in the rear-view monitor will appear visu-
ally reversed compared to those viewed in the
inside and outside mirrors.
Make sure that the back door is securely
closed when reversing.
The area below the bumper and corner areas
of the bumper cannot be viewed on the rear-
view monitor because of its monitoring range
limitation.
Do not put anything on the rear-view camera.
The rear-view camera is installed above the
number plate.
When washing the vehicle with high pressure
water, be sure not to spray it around the cam-
era. Otherwise, water may enter the camera
unit causing possibly water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, a fire or an electric
shock.
Do not strike the camera. It is a precision in-
strument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or
cause damage resulting in a fire or an electric
shock.
CAUTION
There is a transparent cover over the camera
lens. Do not scratch the cover when cleaning dirt
or snow from it.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
WARNING
Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of oc-
cupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road con-
dition and road grade. Always check with your
eyes directly around the vehicle while revers-
ing.
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
line should be used as a reference only when
the vehicle is on a level paved 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.
When reversing the vehicle up a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are further than they
appear. When reversing the vehicle down a
hill, objects viewed in the monitor are closer

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.
