in a closed vehicle can become very
hot. Check the seating surface and
buckles before placing your child in
the child restraint.

is equipped with an automatic lock-
ing mode retractor which must be
used when installing a child re-
straint.
OFailure to use the retractor's locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The re-
straint could tip over or otherwise be
unsecured and cause injury to the
child in a sudden stop or collision.

OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DIS-
PLAY
Push the MODE switch when the ignition
key is in the ACC or ON position. The
outside temperature will be displayed in ÉF.
OPush the MODE switch to change from
ÉF to ÉC.
OWhen the outside temperature is be-
tween 130ÉF (55ÉC) and 158ÉF (70ÉC),

This is not a malfunction.
OThe outside temperature sensor is
located in front of the radiator. The
sensor may be affected by road or
engine heat, wind direction and other
driving conditions. The display may
differ from the actual outside tem-
perature or the temperature dis-
played on various signs or bill-

Zone variation change procedure
The difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance. In
some areas, this difference can sometimes
be great enough to cause false compass
readings. Follow these instructions to setthe variance for your particular location if
this happens:
1. Establish your location on the zone map.
Refer to the illustration. Record your
zone number.
2. Push the MODE switch in for five sec-
onds until the current zone entry number
is displayed.
3. Press the MODE switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is displayed.
Once the desired zone number is displayed,
stop pressing the MODE switch and the

pass or the vehicle is driven where
the terrestrial magnetism is dis-
turbed, the compass display may not
indicate the correct direction.
OIn places where the terrestrial magne-
tism is disturbed, the correction of
the direction starts automatically.
Correction functions of the compass

A key number is supplied with your key.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), NOT IN THE
VEHICLE. If you lose your keys, see an
authorized NISSAN dealer for duplicates by
using the key number. NISSAN does not
record key numbers so it is very important to
keep track of your key number plate.
A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, this
key can be duplicated by an authorized
NISSAN dealer or locksmith.
WARNING
OAlways have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping
to prevent persons from being
thrown from the vehicle. This also
helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
OBefore opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
ODo not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
LOCKING WITH KEY
Manual
