RDS (radio data system)
RDS stands for Radio Data System, and is a data
information service transmitted by some radiostations on the FM band (not AM band) encoded
within a regular radio broadcast. Currently, most
RDS stations are in large cities, but many stations
are now considering broadcasting RDS data.
RDS can display:
cStation call sign, such as “WHFR 98.3”.
cStation name, such as “The Groove”.
cMusic or programming type, such as “Clas-
sical”, “Country”, or “Rock”.
cTraffic reports about delays or construction.
If the station broadcasts RDS information the
RDS icon is displayed. The RDS information will
be displayed according to the option chosen in
the RDS setup mode. (FM & RDS is the default.)
Press the RDS button again to display the fre-
quency for 3 seconds. The radio will then return
to the normal display. If the station does not
broadcast RDS information, the RDS icon will not
be displayed.
Setting RDS mode
Press and RDS button (>3 seconds) until the
display shows“RDS SET MODE”. This display
will last 2 seconds and then change to
“TRAFFIC-OFF”. Press TUNE/FF-REV (or) to toggle the RDS traffic mode from
“OFF” to “ON”. Press the RDS button again to
set your RDS traffic mode selection.The display changes to“SHOW”for the second
part of the RDS mode selection. Press TUNE/FF-
REV (
or) to switch between the
following RDS display modes:
c“FM & RDS”: the radio display will show the

c“RDS ONLY”: the radio display will show the
station’s name only.
c
“RDS TEMP”: the radio display will show the
station’s name for 5 seconds and then display
only the radio station’s broadcast frequency.
PTY (program type)
PTY can be used to search for a certain program
type. Certain areas have a limited number of
stations that transmit RDS. Many stations trans-
mit call letters and frequencies only. Searching or
scanning by program type may yield a limited
number of selections.

cThe original tires have built-in tread
wear indicators. When the wear indica-
tors are visible, the tire(s) should be
replaced.
cImproper service of the spare tire may
result in serious personal injury. If it is
necessary to repair the spare tire, con-
tact a NISSAN dealer.
cFor additional information regarding
tires, refer to Important Tire Safety In-
formation (US) or Tire Safety Informa-
tion (Canada) in the Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet.
Replacing wheels and tires
When replacing a tire, use the same size, tread
design, speed rating and load carrying capacity
as originally equipped. Recommended types and
sizes are shown in “Wheels/tire size” in the
“Technical and consumer information” section of
this manual.
WARNING
cThe use of tires other than those recom-
mended or the mixed use of tires of
different brands, construction (bias,
bias-belted or radial) , or tread patterns
can adversely affect the ride, braking,
handling, ground clearance, body-to-
tire clearance, tire chain clearance,
speedometer calibration, headlight aim
and bumper height. Some of these ef-
fects may lead to accidents and could
result in serious personal injury.
cIf the wheels are changed for any rea-
son, always replace with wheels which
have the same off-set dimension.
Wheels of a different off-set could
cause premature tire wear, degrade ve-
hicle handling characteristics and/or
interference with the brake
discs/drums. Such interference can
lead to decreased braking efficiency
and/or early brake pad/shoe wear. Re-
fer to “Wheel/tire size” in the “Techni-
cal and consumer information” section
of this manual for wheel off-set
dimensions.cWhen a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, the low tire pressure warn-
ing system will not function. Contact
your NISSAN dealer as soon as pos-
sible for tire replacement and/or sys-
tem resetting (for models with the low
tire pressure warning system) .
cDo not install a deformed wheel or tire
even if it has been repaired. Such
wheels or tires could have structural
damage and could fail without warning.
cThe use of retread tires is not
recommended.
cFor additional information regarding
tires, refer to Important Tire Safety In-
formation (US) or Tire Safety Informa-
tion (Canada) in the Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet.
