3. Adjust the driver’s seat, accelerator and
brake pedals, and outside mirrors to the
desired positions by manually operating
each adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats” in the “Safety—Seats,

ment” and “Outside mirrors” earlier in this
section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to
any position other than ON.

push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2) .
If a new memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a keyfob to a stored memory
position
Each keyfob can be linked to a stored memory
position (memory switch 1 or 2) with the follow-
ing procedure.1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi-
tion.
2. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, press the

er’s seat, accelerator and brake pedals, and out-

switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the

tor light will stay on for approximately 5 sec-
onds.
cIf the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the memory storage function will
be canceled and must be restarted before astored memory position can be set again.
Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h) to
restart the memory storage function. You
can also restart the memory storage function
using the following procedure.
1. Connect the battery cable or replace the
fuse.
2. Open and close the driver’s door more than
two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
will automatically move when the automatic
transmission selector lever is in the P (Park)

cWhen the key is removed from the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is opened.
cWhen the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition key turned to LOCK.
cWhen the ignition key is turned from ACC to
LOCK with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat will return to the previous posi-
tion:
cWhen the key is inserted into the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is closed.
cWhen the driver’s door is closed with the key
turned to LOCK.
cWhen the key is turned from ACC to ON
while the automatic transmission selector
lever is in the P (Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or can-
celed. For vehicles with navigation system, see
“Comfort & convenience settings” in the “Display
screen, heater, air conditioner and audio sys-tems” section of this manual. For vehicles without
navigation system, see your NISSAN dealer.Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected or if the fuse
opens, the entry/exit function will be disabled.
Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h) to
restart the entry/exit function. You can also restart
the entry/exit function using the following proce-
dure.
1. Connect the battery cable or replace the
fuse.
2. Open and close the driver’s door more than
two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.
The entry/exit function should now work properly.

The automatic drive positioner system will not
work or will stop operating under the following
conditions:
cWhen the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7
km/h) .
cWhen any of the memory switches are
pushed while the automatic drive positioner
is operating.cWhen the adjusting switch for the driver’s
seat is turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
cWhen the memory switch (1 or 2) is not
pushed and held for at least 1 second.
cWhen the seat has been already moved to
the memorized position.
cWhen no seat position is stored in the
memory switch.
cWhen the automatic transmission selector
lever is moved from P (Park) to any other
position.
cWhen the driver’s door remains open more
than 45 seconds and the ignition switch is
not in the ON position.
The automatic drive positioner system can be
adjusted and canceled. For vehicles with naviga-
tion system, see “Comfort & convenience set-
tings” in the “Display screen, heater, air condi-
