1999 NISSAN PATHFINDER clock

Do not force the cassette tape into the
tape door. This could cause player
damage.The cassette tape automatically changes di-
rections to play the other side when the first
side is complete. At this time, the moving
digital squares illuminate on the left side of the
display window.
Precaution on cassette player operation:
ITo maintain good quality sound, NISSAN
recommends using cassette tapes of 60
minutes or shorter in length.
ICassette tapes should be removed from the
player when not in use. Store cassettes in
their protective cases and away from direct
sunlight, heat, moisture and magnetic
sources.
IDirect 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 with labels which are
peeling and loose. 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 re-
wind the tape firmly around the hubs. Loose
tape may cause tape jamming and waver-
ing sound quality.
IOver a period of time, the playback head,
capstan and pinch roller may collect a tape
coating residue as the tape is played. This
residue accumulation can cause weak or
wavering sound, and should be removed
periodically with a head cleaning tape. If the
residue is not removed periodically, the
player may need to be disassembled for
cleaning.

ANTENNA
Manual antennaThe manual antenna on your vehicle remains
in the upper position at all times. The antenna
cannot be shortened, but can be removed.
When you need to remove the antenna, turn
the antenna nut counterclockwise. To install
the antenna rod, turn the antenna nut clock-
wise. Tighten the antenna rod to specification
using a suitable tool, such as an open-end
wrench. The antenna rod tightening specifica-
tion is 3.4 to 3.6 N×m (30 to 32 in-lb). Do not
use pliers to tighten the antenna as they can
leave marks on the antenna surface. Theantenna rod cannot be hand tightened to the
proper specification.
Always properly tighten the antenna rod
during installation or the antenna rod
may bend or break during vehicle
operation.Power antennaThe antenna will automatically extend when
the radio is turned on, and retract when
switched off. If the radio is left on, the antenna
will retract and extend with the ignition key
OFF-ON operation.IBefore turning the radio on, make
sure that there is no one near the
antenna outlet and there is enough
space for it to extend.
ITo prevent damage, be sure that an-
tenna is fully retracted before the
vehicle enters an automated car
wash.
