PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
Precautions for Brake ControlNFS000Q1
Just after starting vehicle after ignition switch ON, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may
be heard from engine compartment. This is normal condition.
When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from cus-
tomer (what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting
diagnostic servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, check brake booster operation, brake fluid
level, and oil leaks.
If tire size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts,
stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
ABS might be out of order or malfunctions by putting a radio (wiring inclusive), an antenna and a lead-in
wire near the control unit.
If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness
pinches, open circuits, and improper wiring.
VDC system may not operate normally or a VDC OFF indicator lamp or SLIP indicator lamp may light.
–When replacing the following parts with parts other than genuine parts or making modifications: Suspen-
sion-related parts (shock absorber, spring, bushing, etc.), tires, wheels (other than specified sizes), brake-
related parts (pad, rotor, caliper, etc.), engine-related parts (muffler, ECM, etc.) and body reinforcement-
related parts (roll bar, tower bar, etc.).
–When driving with worn or deteriorated suspension, tires and brake-related parts.

Fuel Gauge Pointer Fluctuates, Indicator Wrong Value or VariesNKS003UB
1. CHECK FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATION
Test drive vehicle to see if gauge fluctuates only during driving or at the instant of stopping.
Does the indication value vary only during driving or at the instant of stopping?
YES >> The pointer fluctuation may be caused by fuel level change in the fuel tank. Condition is normal.
NO >> Ask the customer about the situation when the symptom occurs in detail, and perform the trouble
diagnosis.
Fuel Gauge Does Not Move to FULL PositionNKS003UC
1. QUESTION 1
Does it take a long time for the pointer to move to FULL position?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2. QUESTION 2
Was the vehicle fueled with the ignition switch ON?
YES >> Be sure to fuel the vehicle with the ignition switch OFF. Otherwise, it will take a long time to move
to FULL position because of the characteristic of the fuel gauge.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3. QUESTION 3
Is the vehicle parked on an incline?
YES >> Check the fuel level indication with vehicle on a level surface.
NO >> GO TO 4.
4. QUESTION 4
During driving, does the fuel gauge pointer move gradually toward EMPTY position?
YES >> Check the fuel level sensor unit. Refer to DI-26, "CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT" .
NO >> The float arm may interfere or bind with any of the components in the fuel tank.

COMPASSPFP:24835
System DescriptionNKS003W3
This unit displays earth magnetism and heading direction of vehicle.
DIRECTION DISPLAY
Push “COMP” switch (1) when ignition switch is in “ON” or “START”
position. The direction will be displayed.
Pushing “COMP” switch (1) a second time will turn off the display (2).
NOTE:
Do not install the ski rack, antenna, etc. which are attached to
the vehicle by means of a magnet. They affect the operation of
the compass.
The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tun-
nels or while driving up or down a steep hill. (The compass
returns to the correct compass point when the vehicle moves to
an area where the geomagnetism is stabilized.)
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liq-
uid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
Zone Variation Change ProcedureNKS003W4
The difference between magnetic north and geographical north is known as variance. In some areas, this dif-
ference can sometimes be great enough to cause false compass reading.
Follow these instructions to set the variance for the particular loca-
tion if this happens:
1. Push “COMP” switch for more than 3 seconds. The current zone
number will appear in the display.
2. Find the current location and variance one number on the zone
variation chart.
3. Push “COMP” switch until the new zone number appears in the
display. After stopping pushing the switch in, the display will
show a compass direction within a few seconds.
Correction Functions of the Compass DisplayNKS003W5
AUTOMATIC CORRECTION
The compass display is equipped with automatic correction function. If the direction is not shown correctly,
perform manual correction procedure set out below.
MANUAL CORRECTION PROCEDURE
When the display reads “C” or “CAL”, calibrate the compass by driving the vehicle in 3 complete circles at less
than 8 km/h (5 MPH).
The compass can be calibrated by driving the vehicle on everyday route. The compass will be calibrated once
it has tracked 3 complete circles.
In places where the terrestrial magnetism is extremely disturbed, the initial correction procedure may start
automatically.
