Distance to empty (dte — km or mile):
The distance to empty (dte)
provides
you with an estimation of the distance
that can be driven before refueling. The
dte is constantly being calculated, based
on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and
the actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range
warning feature. If the fuel level is low,
the warning is displayed on the screen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the
dte display will change to “———”. .
If the amount of fuel added is small,
the display just before the ignition
switch is placed in the “OFF” position
may continue to be displayed.
. When driving uphill or rounding
curves, the fuel in the tank shifts,
which may momentarily change the
display.

1. Pull the hood lock release handlelocated below the instrument panel
until the hood springs up.
2. Locate the lever
in between the
hood and grille, and push the lever up
with your fingertips.
3. Raise the hood.
4. Remove the support rod and insert it into the slot
.
Hold the coated part
when removing
or resetting the support rod. Avoid
direct contact with the metal parts, as
they may be hot immediately after the
engine has been stopped.
When closing the hood: 1. While supporting the hood, return the
support rod to its original position.
2. Slowly lower the hood to about 8 to 12 in (20 to 30 cm) above the hood lock,
then let it drop.
3. Make sure it is securely latched.
WARNING
. Always be sure the liftgate has
been closed securely to prevent it
from opening while driving.
. Do not drive with the liftgate
open. This could allow dangerous
exhaust gases to be drawn into
the vehicle. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Exhaust gas
(carbon monoxide)” (P.5-4).
. To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and or its
systems, including entrapment
in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the
assistance of others or pets un-
attended in your vehicle. Addi-
tionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury
or death to people and pets.
. Always be sure that hands and
feet are clear of the door frame to
avoid injury while closing the
liftgate.

OPERATING TIPS (for automatic air
conditioner)
When the engine coolant temperature
and outside air temperature are low, the
air flow from the foot outlets may not
operate for a maximum of 150 seconds.
However, this is not a malfunction. After
the coolant temperature warms up, air
flow from the foot outlets will operate
normally.
The sensors
and, located on the
instrument panel, help maintain a con-
stant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around the sensors.
SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains
refrigerant under high pressure. To
avoid personal injury, any air condi-
tioner service should be done only by
an experienced technician with the
proper equipment.
The air conditioner system in your vehicle
is charged with a refrigerant designed
with the environment in mind.
This refrigerant will not harm the
earth’s ozone layer. However, it maycontribute in a small part to global
warming.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
are required when servicing your vehicle’s
air conditioner. Using improper refriger-
ants or lubricants will cause severe da-
mage to the air conditioner system. (See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and
lubricant recommendations” (P.10-6).)
A NISSAN dealer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly air condi-
tioner system.
In-cabin microfilter
The air conditioner system is equipped
with an in-cabin microfilter. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and
ventilates efficiently, replace the filter
according the specified maintenance in-
tervals listed in the "9. Maintenance and
schedules" section. It is recommended to
visit a NISSAN dealer to replace the filter.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.SAA2374
