Vehicles with petrol engine
Turning the speed limiter on:
The speed limiter can be switched on after engine
start or when driving.
Push the speed limiter main “ON/OFF” switch
j4.
The speed limiter symbolj7 and the LIMIT indica-
torj6 will illuminate in the combination meter dis-
play.
Setting speed limit:
Push the SET switch
j2 downwards.
•The speed limit will be set at the current speed.
•When driving less than 30 km/h (20 MPH), the
speed limiter will be set to the minimum possible
set speed of 30 km/h (20 MPH).
When the speed limit is set, the SET indicator
j8
and the set speed valuej9 will be displayed in the
combination meter display.Changing a speed limit:
Use either of the following operations to change an
active speed limit:
•Push and release the RES (Resume) switchj1
upwards or SET switchj2 downwards. Each
time you do this, the set speed will increase or
decrease by 1 km/h (1 MPH).
•Push and hold the RES (Resume) switchj1
upwards or SET switchj2 downwards. The set
speed will increase or decrease to the next mul-
tiple of 10 km/h (10 MPH) and then in steps of
10 km/h (10 MPH).
The new set speed limit value
j9 will be displayed
in the combination meter display.
Cancelling a speed limit:
Use the following operations to cancel an active
speed limit:
•Push the CANCEL switchj3.
•Fully depress the accelerator pedal beyond the
resistance point.
WARNING
•The vehicle may accelerate when the speed
limiter cancels.
•When additional floor mats are used, be sure
that they are correctly secured and that they
cannot interfere with the accelerator pedal.
Mats not adapted to the vehicle may prevent
proper operation of the speed limiter.

5-16Starting and driving

The SET indicatorj8 in the combination meter will
be turned off. The set speed valuej9 will remain
displayed. This speed remains stored in the speed
limiter memory.
Resuming a previous set speed:
If a set speed limit has been cancelled, the set speed
value
j9 will remain displayed in the combination
meter and the speed will be stored in the speed lim-
iter memory.
This speed limit can be reactivated by pressing the
RES (Resume) switch
j1 upwards.
If the current vehicle speed is higher than the previ-
ous set speed, the accelerator pedal will not work
and the set speed value
j9 will flash until the vehicle
speed drops below the set speed limit.
Turning the speed limiter off:
The speed limiter system will be turned off when
one of the following operations is performed:
•Push the speed limiter main “ON/OFF” switchj4 . The speed limiter symbolj7 , the LIMIT indi-
catorj6 , the SET indicatorj8 , and the set
speed valuej9 will turn off in the combination
meter display.
•Push the cruise control main “ON/OFF” switchj5 . The speed limiter information in the combi-
nation meter will be replaced with the cruise con-
trol information. For details see “Cruise control
system” later in this section.
•When the vehicle is stopped and the ignition is
turned to the off position.Turning off the speed limiter will erase the set
speed limit memory.
Speed limiter malfunction:
If the speed limiter malfunctions, the set indicator
j8 in the combination meter display will flash.
Turn the speed limiter off by pushing the speed lim-
iter main “ON/OFF” switch
j4 and have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.

the speed limiter off by pushing the speed limiter
main “ON/OFF” switch
j4 and have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.The cruise control system allows driving at constant
speeds without keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
WARNING
•The cruise control system ONLY maintains a
constant vehicle speed, it does not replace
the driver.
•Always observe the posted speed limits and
do not set the speed above them.
•Do not use the cruise control system when
driving under the following conditions. Doing
so could cause a loss of vehicle control and
result in an accident.
– When it is not possible to keep the vehicle
at a constant speed
– When driving in heavy traffic
– When driving in traffic that varies speed
– When driving in windy areas
– When driving on winding or hilly roads
– When driving on slippery (rain, snow, ice,
etc.) roads
When the cruise control system is on the speed lim-
iter cannot be operated.

speed valuej9 will turn off in the combination
meter display.
•Push the speed limiter main “ON/OFF” switchj5 . The cruise control system information in the

limiter” earlier in this section.
•When the vehicle is stopped and the ignition is
turned to the off position.
Turning off the cruise control system will erase
the cruise control system memory.Ultrasonic sensors
jA , fitted in the vehicle’s rear
bumper, measure the distance between the vehicle
and an obstacle when reversing. When reverse gear
is engaged a beeping sound is heard. The frequency
of the beeps will increase the closer the vehicle
comes to an obstacle until, the sound becomes a
constant beep when, the vehicle is approximately
35 cm (14 in) from the obstacle.
NOTE
•This system is intended as an aid to reversing,
to be used in conjunction with your rear view
mirror.
•Make sure that the ultrasonic sensors are not
obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
WARNING
•Do not park the vehicle over flammable mate-
rials, such as dry grass, waste paper, or rags.
They may ignite and cause a fire.
•Safe parking procedures require that:
– The handbrake is applied.
– The gear lever is placed in an appropriate
gear for manual transmission models.
– The selector lever is placed in the P (Park)
position for automatic transmission mod-
els.
Failure to follow the above recommenda-
tions could cause the vehicle to move un-
expectedly or roll away and result in an
accident.
•Never leave the engine running while the ve-
hicle is unattended.
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left
alone either. On hot, sunny days, tempera-
tures in a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause severe or possi-
bly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•Manual transmission models:
Depress the clutch pedal and place the gear
lever in the R (Reverse) position. When parking
on an uphill gradient, place the gear lever in the
1st (Low gear) position.
