WARNING ● Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assistance of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left alone. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly become high enough to ca[...]

CAUTION ● Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded gasoline will seriously re- duce the three-way catalyst’s ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants. ● Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc- tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat. Do [...]

● The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) . Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire while driving) . ● The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is adjusted. After all 4 tires are inflated to the reco[...]

Some examples are: – Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies are near the vehicle. – If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle. – If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near the vehicle.

WARNING Apply the parking brake if the shift selec- tor is in any posit[...]

Ds (Drive sport) : When the shift selector is shifted from the D (Drive) position to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters the Ds (Drive Sport) mode. Moving the shift selector to the Ds (Drive Sport) position allows smooth acceleration or decelera- tion on a hilly road by moving into a lower gear automatically . When canceling the Ds mode,[...]

When shifting up: Move the shift selector to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher range.) When shifting down: Move the shift selector to the ⫺ (down) side. (Shifts to lower range.) ● The transmission will automatically down- shift the gears. (For example, if you select the 3rd range, the transmission will shift down between the 3rd and 1st gears.[...]

The power assisted steering uses a hydraulic pump, driven by the engine, to assist steering. If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks, you will still have control of the vehicle. However, much greater steering effort is needed, especially in sharp turns and at low speeds. WARNING If the engine is not running or is turned off while driving, the [...]

T o dry the brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe speed while lightly pressing the brake pedal to heat up the brakes. Do this until the brakes return to normal. Avoid driving the vehicle at high speeds until the brakes function correctly . ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) WARNING ● The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is a sophisticated device, but it [...]

Normal operation The ABS operates at speeds abov e3-6M P H( 5 - 10 km/h) . The speed varies according to road conditions. When the ABS senses that 1 or more wheels are close to locking up, the actuator rapidly applies and releases hydraulic pressure. This action is similar to pumping the brakes very quickly . Y ou may feel a pulsation in the brake [...]

● Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension. If suspension parts such as shock ab- sorbers, struts, springs, stabilizer bars, bushings and wheels are not NISSAN approved for your vehicle or are ex - tremely deteriorated the V ehicle Dy- namic Control system may not operate properly. This could adversely affect ve- hicle handling performance, and t[...]

Wheel nut tightening torque: 83 ft-lb ([...]

● The original tires have built-in tread wear indicators. When the wear indicators are visible, the tire(s) should be replaced. ● Tires degrade with age and use. Have tires, including the spare, over 6 years old checked by a qualified technician because some tire damage may not be ob- vious. Replace the tires as neces- sary to prevent tire fail[...]

● Do not install a damaged or deformed wheel or tire even if it has been re- paired. Such wheels or tires could have structural damage and could fail with- out warning. ● The use of retread tires is not recommended. ● For additional information regarding tires, refer to “Important Tire Safety In- formation” (US) or “Tire Safety Informa-[...]
