When you push 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.

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.

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
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.

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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then, close
the windows. This will allow the acceleration of
the air conditioner’s cooling operation.
Keep windows closed while the air conditioner is
operating.
The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the
“HOT” position, turn the air conditioner off. For
additional information, see “Engine overheat” in
the “6. In case of emergency” section.
If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To replace the fil-
ter, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The filter should be replaced if the airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily while operating the heater or air condition-
ing system.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle
is charged with an environmentally friendly refriger-
ant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing the NISSAN air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the air conditioning system.
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving.
The audio system operates when the ignition switch
is in the Acc or ON position. If you want to listen to
the radio or CD while the engine is not running, turn
the ignition switch to the Acc position. Do not use
for an extended period of time with the engine
stopped.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
NOTE
Models with NISSAN Connect system, see the
audio operation precautions in the separately
provided NISSAN Connect Owner’s Manual.
Radio
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.
Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this
occurs, remove the CD and dehumidify or
ventilate the player completely.
