Compass display
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the
ªACCº or ªONº position. The direction will be
displayed.
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 read-
ings. Follow these instructions to set the vari-
ance for your particular location if this hap-
pens:
1. Establish your location on the zone map.
Record your zone number.
2. Push the ªON/OFFº switch in for five sec-
onds until the current zone entry number is
displayed.
3. Press the ªON/OFFº switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is displayed.
Once the desired zone number is displayed,
stop pressing the ªON/OFFº switch and the
display will show compass direction within a
few seconds.IIf a magnet is located near the compass
or the vehicle is driven where the terres-
trial magnetism is disturbed, the com-
pass display may not indicate the cor-
rect direction.
IIn places where the terrestrial magne-
tism is disturbed, the correction of the
direction starts automatically, extin-
guishing the direction bar. If turn is
made one or two times, the correction is
complete and the direction bar comes
back on.
Correction functions of the compass
display
The compass display is equipped with auto-
matic correction function. If the direction is not
shown correctly, carry out manual correction
procedure set out below.
Manual correction procedure
1. Push the switch for about 10 seconds. The
direction bar starts blinking.
2. Drive the vehicle slowly in an open and safe
area. The initial correction is completed
while turning one or two turns.
In places where the terrestrial magnetism
is extremely disturbed, the initial correc-
tion procedure may start automatically.The digital clock displays time when the igni-
tion key is in ªACCº or ªONº.
If the power supply is disconnected, the
clock will not indicate the correct time.
Readjust the time.Clock set (Adjustment)

Daytime running light system
(For Canada)
The headlights automatically illuminate at a
reduced intensity when the engine is started
with the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight switch
in the ªOFFº position or in the ª
º position.
Turn the headlight switch to the ªº posi-
tion for full illumination when driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights do
not illuminate. The daytime running lights illu-
minate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on until
the ignition switch is turned off.
When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle will
not be on. It is necessary at dusk to turn
on your headlights. Failure to do so
could cause an accident injuring your-
self and others.
Passing signal
Pulling the lever toward you will turn on the
passing signal even when the headlight switch
is off.
Turn signal
Move the lever up or down to signal to the
turning direction. When the turn is completed,
the turn signals cancel automatically.
Lane change signal
To indicate a lane change, move the lever up
or down to the point where lights begin flash-
ing.
The windshield wiper and washer operates
when the ignition key is in the ªACCº or ªONº
position.
Push the lever down to operate the wiper.
Intermittent operation can be adjusted from 4
to 12 seconds by turning the knob.
Pull the lever toward you to operate the
washer. Then the wiper will also operate sev-
eral times.

ROLLING CODES (If so equipped)
If your hand held transmitter appears to train to
the HomeLinkTransmitter, but does not open
your garage door, and your garage door
opener was manufactured after 1995, your
garage door opener may have a ªCode Pro-
tectedº or ªRolling Codeº feature. This type of
system will change the ªcodeº of your garage
door opener every time you open or close your
garage door.
To determine if you have one of these sys-
tems, depress the button on the HomeLink
Transmitter that you have just programmed. If
the LED on the HomeLinkTransmitterflashes rapidly for 1 to 2 seconds, then re-
mains on, your garage door opener has a
rolling code system.
To operate your ªRolling Codeº garage door
opener from your HomeLink
Transmitter, fol-
low these steps:
1. Program your hand held transmitter to the
HomeLink
Transmitter by following the
procedures outlined above (if not yet pro-
grammed).
2. Program your garage door opener receiver
to recognize your HomeLink
Transmitter
(The HomeLinkTransmitter follows the
same procedure to train to the receiver as
your hand held transmitter did when it was
first installed):
a) Remove the cover panel from your ga-
rage door opener receiver. The receiver
should be located by the garage door
opener motor.
b) Locate the training button on the garage
door opener receiver. The exact location
and color of the button may vary by
garage door opener brand. If you have
difficulty locating the training button, ref-
erence your garage door opener
manual. If you have difficulty program-
ming your garage door opener equippedwith a rolling code system to recognize
the HomeLink
Transmitter with the
ªRolling Codeº feature, call NISSAN
Consumer Affairs Department.
c) Press the training button on the garage
door opener receiver for 1 to 2 seconds.
d) Return to the HomeLink
Transmitter in
the vehicle, and depress the pro-
grammed HomeLink
button for the du-
ration of the fast blink on the HomeLink
Transmitter (1 to 2 seconds). Release
the button, and re-press to confirm that
the system has trained.
e) Your garage door opener should now
recognize your HomeLink
Transmitter.
You may use either your HomeLink
Transmitter or your original hand held
transmitter to open your garage door.

length.
ICassette tapes should be removed from
the player when not in use. Store cas-
settes in their protective cases and away
from direct sunlight, heat, moisture or
magnetic sources.
Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to
become deformed. The use of deformed
cassettes may cause the cassette to jam
in the player.
IDo not use cassettes that have peeling
or loose labels. If used, the label could
jam in the player.
IIf a cassette has loose tape, insert a
pencil through one of the cassette hubs
and rewind the tape firmly. Loose tape
