will automatically apply when the ignition switch
is placed in the OFF position.
•Vehicle with push-button ignition switch:

cally release when you press the accelerator with
the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse (R), provided:
•The driver is wearing a seat belt, or
•The driver accelerates away within 5 seconds of
shifting from Park (P) or Neutral (N) to Drive (D)
or Reverse (R).
If you have tried to start driving the vehicle while not
wearing a seat belt, you will need to put on your seat
belt and place the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse
(R) again before the parking brake will release auto-
matically.
If you have a vehicle with XTRONIC Transmission,

PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
3-16Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left
alone. They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•To prevent luggage or packages from sliding
forward during braking, do not stack anything
in the cargo area higher than the seatbacks.
•Secure all cargo with ropes or straps to pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting.
•Failure to follow proper seating instructions
see “Seats” in the “1. Safety — Seats, Seat
belts and Supplemental Restraint System”
section, could result in serious personal injury
in an accident or sudden stop.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
•Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colourless and odourless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can
cause unconsciousness or death.
•If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open and have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.
•Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such
as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely
necessary.
•Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for any extended length of time.
•Keep the back door closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive in
this way for some reason, take the following
steps:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Set the air recirculation mode (
)tothe
“OFF” position.
3) Set the fan speed control to the maximum
position to circulate the air.
•If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to a trailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
•When a vehicle has been stopped in an open
area with its engine running for any significant
length of time, turn the fan on to force outside
air into the vehicle.
•The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop whenever:
– the vehicle is raised for service.
– you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing into the passenger compartment.
– you notice a change in the sound of the
exhaust system.
– you have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
