There are three basic types of child restraint systems: ● Rear-facing child restraint ● Forward-facing child restraint ● Booster seat The proper restraint depends on the child’s size. Generally , infants up to about 1 year and less than 20 lbs (9 kg) should be placed in rear-facing child restraints. Forward-facing child restraints are avail[...]

Once a child outgrows the height or weight limit of the harness-equipped forward-facing child re- straint, NISSAN recommends that the child be placed in a commercially available booster seat to obtain proper seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly , the booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned acro[...]

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 [...]

Additional information: ● The TPMS does not monitor the tire pressure of the spare tire. ● 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 automatical[...]

● Replacing tires with those not originally specified by NISSAN could affect the proper operation of the TPMS. ● Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire sealant into the tires, as this may cause a malfunction of the tire pressure sensors. CAUTION Do not place metalized film or any metal parts (antenna, etc .) on the windows. This may caus[...]

OFF-ROAD RECOVER Y If the right side or left side wheels unintentionally leave the road surface, maintain control of the vehicle by following the procedure below .

4. Stop the vehicle completely before shifting the shift lever to the P (Park) position. The CVT is designed so the foot brake pedal MUST be depressed before shifting from P (Park) to any drive position while the ignition switch is in the ON position. The shift lever cannot be moved out of P (Park) and into any of the other gear posi- tions if the [...]

R (Reverse) : CAUTION T o prevent transmission damage, use the P (Park) or R (Reverse) position only when the vehicle is completely stopped. Use the R (Reverse) position to back up. Make sure the vehicle is completely stopped before selecting the R (Reverse) position. The brake pedal must be depressed to move the shift lever from P (Park) , N (Neut[...]

When the shift lever is shifted from D (Drive) to the manual shift gate 䊊 A with the vehicle stopped or while driving, the transmission enters the manual shift mode.

ANTI-L OCK BRAKING S Y STEM (ABS) WARNING ● The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is a sophisticated device, but it cannot pre- vent accidents resulting from careless or dangerous driving techniques. It can help maintain vehicle control during braking [...]

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 pedal and hear a noise from under the hood or feel a vibration from the actuator when it is operating. This is normal and [...]

The VDC system is automatically reset to on when the ignition switch is placed in the off position then back to the on position.

WARNING ● It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area inside a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seri- ously injured or killed. ● Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. ● Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a se[...]

VEHICLE L OAD CAP ACITY Do not exceed the load limit of your ve- hicle shown as “The combined weight of occupants and cargo” on the Tire and Loading Information label. Do not exceed the number of occupants shown as “Seating Capacity” on the Tire and Load- ing Information label. T o get “the combined weight of occu- pants and cargo” , ad[...]

Steps for determining correct load limit 1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs or XXX kg” on your vehicle’s placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX [...]

5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4. 6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be trans- ferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this re- duces the av[...]

WARNING Overloading or improper loading of a trailer and its cargo can adversely affect vehicle handling, braking and perfor- mance and may lead to accidents. CAUTION ● Do not tow a trailer or haul a heavy load for the first 500 miles (800 km) . Y our engine, axle or other parts could be damaged. ● For the first 500 miles (800 km) that you tow [...]

T emperature conditions also can affect towing. For example, towing a heavy trailer in high outside temperatures on graded roads can affect engine performance and cause overheating. The trans- mission high fluid temperature protection mode, which helps reduce the chance of transmission damage, could activate and automatically de- crease engine powe[...]

Maximum Gross V ehicle Weight (GVW)/maximum Gross Axle W eight (GA W) The GVW of the towing vehicle must not exceed the Gross V ehicle W eight Rating (GVWR) shown on the F .M.V .S.S./C.M.V .S.S. certification label. The GVW equals the combined weight of the unloaded vehicle, passengers, luggage, hitch, trailer tongue load and any other optional equ[...]

Ball mount The hitch ball is attached to the ball mount and the ball mount is inserted into the hitch receiver. Choose a proper class ball mount based on the trailer weight. Additionally , the ball mount should be chosen to keep the trailer tongue level with the ground. Sway control device Sudden maneuvers, wind gusts, and buffeting caused by other[...]

T railer lights CAUTION When splicing into the vehicle electrical system, a commercially available power- type module/converter must be used to provide power for all trailer lighting. This unit uses the vehicle battery as a direct power source for all trailer lights while using the vehicle tail light, stoplight and turn signal circuits as a signal [...]

● When backing up, hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand. Move your hand in the direction in which you want the trailer to go. Make small corrections and back up slowly . If possible, have someone guide you when you are backing up. Always block the wheels on both vehicle and trailer when parking. Parking on a slope is not recommende[...]

2. When the trailer sway stops, gently apply the brakes and pull to the side of the road in a safe area. 3. T ry to rearrange the trailer load so it is bal- anced as described earlier in this section. ● Be careful when passing other vehicles. Passing while towing a trailer requires con- siderably more distance than normal pass- ing. Remember, the[...]

DO T (Department of T ransportation) Quality Grades: All passenger car tires must conform to federal safety requirements in addition to these grades.
