If dirt, rainorsnow accumulates onthe camera, the
MOD system maynotoperate properly.Clean the
camera.
The camera washeroperates automatically whendirtis

then stops operation afteraperiod oftime.
P ARK ASSIST (PA) (ifequipped)
GUID-E6 40D1F9-8120 -4679-81C7-8BB968C41799
Park Assist (PA) isdesigned toassist drivers with
parallel andperpendicular parking.
This system willoperate thesteering wheeltopark the
vehicle inthe parking spacesetbythe driver onthe
bird's-eye viewscreen (perpendicular mode),or
measured byparking sensors (sonar)inthe left/right
side ofthe front bumper (parallel mode).Screen
guidance forthe shift lever operation isalso provided
during theparking maneuvers.
WARNING:
. PA is designed tosupport thedriver's
steering wheeloperation inaparking lot.It
does notautomatically lowerthevehicle
speed oravoid contact withobjects. As
when performing ordinaryparkingmaneu-
vers, always lookoutthewindows andcheck
with your owneyes tobe sure thatthe
surrounding androad conditions aresafe for
the maneuvers beforeoperating thevehicle.
Operate thevehicle slowlyduring thepark -
ing maneuvers. Ifthe vehicle getsclose to
people orobjects nearthevehicle, avoid
making contactbyusing thebrakes and
performing othermaneuvers.
. Do not touch thespoke ofthe steering
wheel whilethePA is operating. Itcould cause
injuries tohands orfingers. Keep
neckties, scarves.etc.away fromthesteer-
ing wheel sincetheymaygetentangled and
cause unexpected accidents.

refrigerant willnotharm theearth's ozone
layer. However, itmay contribute inasmall partto
global warming.
Special charging equipment andlubricant arerequired
when servicing yourvehicle's airconditioner. Using
improper refrigerants orlubricants willcause severe
damage tothe airconditioner system.(SeeªAir

. Radio reception isaffected bystation signal
strength, distancefromradio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains andother external
influences. Intermittent changesinreception
quality normally arecaused bythese external
influences.
. Using acellular phoneinor near thevehicle may
influence radioreception quality.
. Some cellular phones orother devices maycause
interference orabuzzing noisetocome fromthe
audio system speakers. Storingthedevice ina

remove theCD from CDplayer anddehumidify or
ventilate theplayer completely .

During thefirst 1,600 km(1,000 miles),follow these
recommendations toobtain maximum engineperfor-
mance andensure thefuture reliability andeconomy of
your newvehicle. Failuretofollow theserecommenda-
tions mayresult inshortened enginelifeand reduced
engine performance.
. Donot drive ataconstant speed,eitherfastor
slow ,for long periods oftime.
. Do not runtheengine over4,000 rpm(for
gasoline enginemodels) .
. Donot accelerate atfull throttle inany gear.
. Donot start quickly .
. Donot brake hardasmuch aspossible.
. Donot tow atrailer foratleast thefirst 800 km
(500 miles) (forAustralia, NewZealand, South
Africa andEurope) .

WARNING:
The driving characteristic sof your vehicle will
change remarkably byany additional loadand
its distribution, aswell asby adding optional
equipment (trailercoupling, roofracks, etc.).
Y our driving styleandspeed mustbeadjusted
according tothe circumstances. Especiallywhen
carrying heavyloads, yourspeed mustbe
reduced adequately.
. Make surethearea around thevehicle isclear.
. Visually inspecttiresfortheir appearance and
condition. Measureandcheck thetire pressure for
proper inflation.
. Check thatallwindows andlights areclean.
. Adjust theseat andhead restraint positions.
. Adjust theinside andoutside rearview mirror
positions.
. Fasten yourseatbeltandaskallpassengers todo
the same.
. Check thatalldoors areclosed.
. Check theoperation ofthe warning lightswhen

WARNING:
. Never leavechildren oradults whowould
normally requirethesupport ofothers alone
in your vehicle. Petsshould notbeleft alone
either. Theycould unknowingly activate
switches orcontrols andinadvertently be-
come involved inaserious accident and
injure themselves. Onhot, sunny days,
temperatures inaclosed vehicle could
quickly become highenough tocause se-
vere orpossibly fatalillness topeople or
animals.
. Properly secureallluggage tohelp prevent it
from sliding orshifting. Donot place lug-
gage higher thantheseatbacks. Inasudden
stop orcollision, unsecured luggagecould
cause personal injury.
NO TE:
During thefirst fewmonths afterpurchasing a
new vehicle, ifyou smell strong odorsofVolatile
Organic Compounds (VOCs)insidethevehicle,
ventilate thepassenger compartment thor-
oughly. Openallthe windows beforeentering
or while inthe vehicle. Inaddition, whenthe
temperature inthe passenger compartment
rises, orwhen thevehicle isparked indirect
sunlight foraperiod oftime, turnoffthe air
recirculation modeofthe airconditioner and/or
open thewindows toallow sufficient freshair
into thepassenger compartment.

soon aspossible, andinflate themtothe proper
pressure. Drivingonasignificantly under-inflated tire
causes thetiretooverheat andcanlead totire failure.
Under-inflation alsoreduces fuelefficiency andtire
tread life,and may affect thevehicle's handlingand
stopping ability.
Please notethattheTPMS isnot asubstitute for
proper tiremaintenance, anditis the driver's respon-
sibility tomaintain correcttirepressure, evenifunder-
inflation hasnotreached thelevel totrigger illumination
of the TPMS lowtirepressure telltale.
Y our vehicle hasalso been equipped withaTPMS
malfunction indicatortoindicate whenthesystem is
not operating properly.The TPMS malfunction indica-
tor iscombined withthelow tirepressure telltale.
When thesystem detects amalfunction, thetelltale will
flash forapproximately oneminute andthen remain
continuously illuminated.Thissequence willcontinue
upon subsequent vehiclestart-ups aslong asthe
malfunction exists.Whenthemalfunction indicatoris
illuminated, thesystem maynotbeable todetect or
signal lowtirepressure asintended. TPMSmalfunc-
tions mayoccur foravariety ofreasons, including the
installation ofreplacement oralternate tiresorwheels
on the vehicle thatprevent theTPMS fromfunctioning
properly .Always checktheTPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing oneormore tiresorwheels onyour
vehicle toensure thatthereplacement oralternate tires
and wheels allowtheTPMS tocontinue tofunction
properly .

. The TPMS doesnotmonitor thetirepressure of
the spare tire.
. The TPMS willactivate onlywhen thevehicle is
driven atspeeds above25km/h (16MPH) .Also,
this system maynotdetect asudden dropintire
pressure (forexample aflat tire while driving) .
. The lowtirepressure warninglightmaynot
automatically turnoffwhen thetirepressure is
adjusted. Afterthetireisinflated tothe recom-
mended pressure, resetthetire pressures regis-
tered inyour vehicle andthen drive thevehicle at
speeds above25km/h (16MPH) toactivate the
TPMS andturn offthe low tirepressure warning
light.
. Depending onachange inthe outside tempera-
ture, thelow tirepressure warninglightmay
illuminate evenifthe tire pressure hasbeen
adjusted properly.Adjust thetirepressure tothe
recommended COLDtirepressure againwhen
the tires arecold, andreset theTPMS.
. You can check thepressure ofall tires inthe
vehicle information display.(See ªTrip computerº
(P .2-34) .)
For additional information, seeªLow tirepressure
warning lightº(P.2-14) .
WARNING:
. Ifthe low tirepressure warninglightillumi-
nates whiledriving, avoidsudden steering
maneuvers orabrupt braking, reducevehicle
speed, pulloffthe road toasafe location
and stop thevehicle assoon aspossible.
Driving withunder-inflated tiresmayperma-
nently damage thetires andincrease the
likelihood oftire failure. Serious vehicle damage
couldoccurandmay lead toan
accident andcould result inserious personal
injury. Check thetire pressure forallfour
tires. Adjust thetire pressure tothe recom-
mended COLDtirepressure shownonthe
tire placard toturn thelow tirepressure
warning lightoff.Ifthe light stillilluminates
while driving afteradjusting thetire pres-
sure, atire may beflat. Ifyou have aflat tire,
replace itwith aspare tireassoon as
possible. (SeeªFlat tireº(P.6-2) forchanging
a flat tire.)
. After adjusting thetire pressure, besure to
reset theTPMS. Otherwise, theTPMS will
not warn oflow tirepressure.
. When aspare tireismounted orawheel is
replaced, theTPMS willnotfunction andthe
low tirepressure warninglightwillflash for
approximately 1minute. Thelight willre-
main onafter the1minute. Contact a
NISSAN dealerassoon aspossible fortire
replacement and/orsystem resetting.
. Replacing tireswiththose notoriginally
specified byNISSAN couldaffect theproper
operation ofthe TPMS.
. Donot inject anytireliquid oraerosol tire
sealant intothetires, asthis may cause a
malfunction ofthe tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION:
. The TPMS maynotfunction properly when
the wheels areequipped withtirechains or
the wheels areburied insnow.
. Do not place metalized filmorany metal
parts (antenna, etc.)on the windows. This
may cause poorreception ofthe signals
