cargo area to the best location to secure a
load.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for loading limits
and tie-down recommendations.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system
does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a
blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in
the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature
causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to
illuminate. If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in all
four tires.
To turn the low tire pressure warning light off, adjust the low tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label
located in the driver’s door opening. After tire pressures are adjusted, the vehicle will
need to be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off
the low tire pressure warning light.
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. After 60 seconds, the light will
remain on. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT AND CHIME
 The light and chime remind you to fasten your seat belts. The
light illuminates whenever the ignition key is turned to the ON
or START position and remains illuminated until the driver’s
seat belt is fastened. At the same time, the chime sounds for
approximately 6 seconds unless the driver’s seat belt is
securely fastened.
 The seat belt warning light may also illuminate if the front passenger’s seat belt is
not fastened when the front passenger’s seat is occupied. For 7 seconds after the
ignition switch is in the ON position, the system does not activate the warning light
for the front passenger.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for detailed information regarding seat belt usage.
CHILD SAFET Y RE AR DOOR LOCK
Child safety locks help prevent the rear doors from being
opened accidentally, especially when small children are
in the vehicle. The child safety lock levers are located on
