FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and highly explosive under certain
conditions. You could be burned or
seriously injured if it is misused or
mishandled. Always stop engine
and do not smoke or allow open
flames or sparks near the vehicle
when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Continued
refueling may cause fuel overflow,
resulting in fuel spray and possibly
a fire.
. Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It
has a built-in safety valve needed
for proper operation of the fuel
system and emission control sys-
tem. An incorrect cap can result in a
serious malfunction and possible
injury. It could also cause the mal-
function indicator light to come on.
FUEL-FILLER DOOR

.Never pour fuel into the throttle
body to attempt to start your vehi-
cle.
. Close the sliding door before open-
ing the fuel-filler door.
. Do not fill a portable fuel container
in the vehicle or trailer. Static elec-
tricity can cause an explosion of
flammable liquid, vapor or gas in
any vehicle or trailer. To reduce the
risk of serious injury or death when
filling portable fuel containers:
— Always place the container on
the ground when filling.
— Do not use electronic devices when filling.
— Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are
filling it.
— Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
. If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid paint damage.
. Insert the cap straight into the fuel-
filler tube, then tighten until the
fuel-filler cap clicks. Failure to tight-
en the fuel-filler cap properly may
cause the
malfunction indicator
light (MIL) to illuminate. If the
light illuminates because the fuel-
filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to
drive the vehicle. The
light
should turn off after a few driving
trips. If the
light does not turn
off after a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected by a NISSAN deal-
er.
For additional information, see
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)”
(P.2-17) .
. The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning will
appear if the fuel-filler cap is not
properly tightened. It may take a few
driving trips for the message to be
displayed. Failure to tighten the
fuel-filler cap properly after the
LOOSE FUEL CAP warning appears
may cause the
Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate.

LOOSE FUEL CAP warning
The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning appears on the
dot matrix liquid crystal display when the fuel-
filler cap is not tightened correctly after the
vehicle has been refueled. It may take a few
driving trips for the message to be displayed. To
turn off the warning, perform the following steps:

WARNING
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an acci-
dent.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
any closer to you than is necessary
for proper steering operation and
comfort. The driver’s air bag inflates
with great force. If you are unrest-
rained, leaning forward, sitting side-
ways or out of position in any way,
you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also
receive serious or fatal injuries from
the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far
away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.

The automatic drive positioner system has two
features:
.Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
will automatically move when the shift lever is in
the P (Park) position. This allows the driver to
get into and out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward when the
driver’s door is opened with the ignition switch
in the LOCK position.
The driver’s seat will return to the previous
positions when the ignition switch is pushed to
the ACC position.
The driver’s seat will not return to the previous
positions if the seat adjusting switch is operated
when the seat is at the exit position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit function
The shift lever must be in the P (Park) position
with the ignition switch in the OFF position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory switches (1
and 2) will blink once when the function is
canceled, and the indicator lights will blink twice when the function is activated. Note that the
indicator lights may illuminate after 5 seconds
while holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to a
stored memory position. Keep the SET switch
pressed for more than 10 seconds to turn on or
off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be activated or
canceled if the “Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit”
key is turned to ON or OFF in the “Comfort”
settings. (See “Vehicle information and settings
(models with center multi-function control pa-
nel)” (P.4-8) .)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
opens, the entry/exit function will not work
though this function was set on before. In such
a case, after connecting the battery or replacing
with a new fuse, open and close the driver’s
door more than two times after the ignition
switch is placed in the LOCK position from the
ON position. The entry/exit function will be
activated.
SPA2855
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat and outside
mirrors can be stored in the automatic drive
positioner memory. Follow this procedure to use
the memory system.
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position.
2. Push the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat and outside mirrors
to the desired positions by manually operat-
ing each adjusting switch. For additional
information, see “Seats” (P.1-2) and “Out-
side mirrors” (P.3-35) .
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
