CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR
LOCK
Child safety locks help prevent the rear
doors from being opened accidentally, es-
pecially when small children are in the ve-
hicle.
The child safety lock levers are located on
the edge of the rear doors.
When the lever is in the lock position, the
door can only be opened from the out-
side.
MULTI-REMOTE CONTROL
SYSTEM (if so equipped)
It is possible to lock/unlock all doors, and
activate the panic alarm by using the remote
controller.
Be sure to remove the key from the
vehicle before locking the doors.
The remote controller can operate at a
distance of approximately 49 ft (15 m) from
the vehicle. The effective distance depends
on the conditions around the vehicle.
As many as four remote controllers can be
used with one vehicle. For information con-
cerning the purchase and use of additional
remote controllers, contact an authorized
NISSAN dealer.
CAUTION
Listed below are conditions or occur-
rences which will damage the remote
controller:
IDo not allow the remote controller to
become wet.
IDo not drop the remote controller.IDo not strike the remote controller
sharply against another object.
IDo not place the remote controller
for an extended period in an area
where temperatures exceed 140ÉF
(60ÉC).

WARNING
IThe air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
IDo not leave children, unreliable
adults, or pets alone in your vehicle.
On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause severe
or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
IDo not use the recirculation mode
for long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
IPositioning of the heater and air con-
ditioner controls should not be done
while driving, in order that full atten-
tion may be given to the driving
operation.

Operating tips
IKeep windows and sunroof closed while
the air conditioner is in operation.
IAfter parking in the sun, drive for two or
three minutes with the windows open to
vent hot air from the passenger compart-
ment. Then, close the windows. This
allows the air conditioner to cool the
interior more quickly.
IThe air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately ten min-
utes at least once a month. This helps
prevent damage to the system due to
lack of lubrication.
IIf the engine coolant temperaturegauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature over the normal range, turn
the air conditioner off. See²If your
vehicle overheats²in the²In case of
emergency²section of this manual.
AIR FLOW CHARTS
The following charts show the button and

Clock priority mode
In this mode the clock is shown in the

ception.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter,
buildings, bridges, mountains and other ex-
ternal influences. Intermittent changes in
reception quality normally are caused by
these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the
vehicle may influence radio reception
quality.

Precautions on cassette player op-
erations
ITo maintain good quality sound, NIS-
SAN 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,
dust, moisture and magnetic sources.
IDirect sunlight can cause the cassette
to become deformed. The use of de-
formed cassettes may cause the cas-
sette 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 rewind the tape firmly
around the hubs. Loose tape may
cause tape jamming and wavering
sound quality.
IOver a period of time, the playback
head, capstan and pinch roller maycollect a tape coating residue as the
tape is played. This residue accumu-
lation can cause weak or wavering
sound, and should be removed peri-
odically with a head cleaning tape. If
the residue is not removed periodi-
cally, the player may need to be disas-
sembled for cleaning.Fast forwarding or rewinding the
tape
Push either theorbutton for
the desired direction.
The FF or REW symbol illuminates in the
