2010 NISSAN NOTE nissan note

If the warning light remains illuminated after the en-
gine has been started, there will be no power steer-
ing assistance: the vehicle may be driven using the
mechanical steering system although it is not rec-
ommended as the effort to turn the steering wheel
will be significantly increased compared to normal
operation.
WARNING
•If the EPAS warning light illuminates while
driving, stop as soon as safely possible.
•In certain circumstances, factors external to
the EPAS system may contribute to the illumi-
nation of the warning light. If the warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible if driving, turn the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position for approximately 20 sec-
onds, then turn the ignition switch to the ON
position again. If the light remains illuminated,
we recommend you to contact a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
See “Power steering system” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for further details on the EPAS sys-
tem.

Anti-lock Braking System
warning light
After turning the ignition key to the ON position, the
light will illuminate. The Anti-lock Braking System
warning light will turn off after approximately 1 sec-
ond if the system is operational.
If the light comes on while the engine is running, it
may indicate something is wrong with the anti-lock
portion of the braking system. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.Anti-lock Braking System:
The Anti-lock Braking System controls the wheels
so that they will not lock when braking abruptly or
when braking on a slippery road. This will prevent
difficult steering operation and swerving due to
locked wheels.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the anti-lock
function will cease but the ordinary brakes will con-
tinue to operate normally.
CAUTION
If the light comes on while you are driving, con-
tact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop for
repair.

“5. Starting and driving” section.
Instruments and controls2-11

The key/emergency keyjB is applicable to:
•the ignition switch or ignition knob (keyfob dead
battery situation)
•the left-hand side door key cylinder (vehicle dead
battery situation)
•the front passenger air bag switch
CAUTION
Do not leave the ignition key or Intelligent Key
inside the vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
NOTE
To access the emergency key
jB (Intelligent Key
equipped models), remove the keyfob lower
cover according to the steps
j1,j2andj3 de-
scribed in “Emergency key – Intelligent Key dead
battery situation” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.
The key can only be inserted fully in the ignition
switch or knob cylinder. For the left-hand side doorhandle and front passenger air bag switch (Intelli-
gent Key equipped models), it is normal for the key
not to go into the key cylinder all the way.
Record the key number shown on the tag
jA on the
“Security information” page at the end of this manual
and keep it in a safe place,not in the vehicle.Ifyou
lose your keys or Intelligent Keys, see your NISSAN
dealer for duplicates by using the key number.
NISSAN does not record key numbers so it is very
important to keep track of your key number plate.
Note that a key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be dupli-
cated by your NISSAN dealer.
Only the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* key
can be used on your vehicle. A key number is nec-
essary when you need an extra NATS key. As many
as four NATS keys can be used on one vehicle. The
new key must be registered to the NATS compo-
nents of your vehicle by your NISSAN dealer. At this
time, you are requested to bring all your NATS keys
to your NISSAN dealer.
* Immobilizer
This is necessary because the registration process
will erase all memory of the NATS components.
Do not allow NATS keys which contain the tran-
sponder chip to come in contact with salt water.
Salt water may damage the transponder chip and
cause a NATS key malfunction.

prevent an attacker from entering the vehicle via an
unlocked passenger door. For details, see “Unlock-
ing the doors – anti-hijack mode” later in this section
for unlocking the doors.
The integrated keyfob can operate at a distance of
approximately 5m (15ft) from the vehicle (the effec-
tive distance depends upon the conditions around
the vehicle and the state of the keyfob battery).
As many as four integrated keyfobs can be used for
one vehicle. For information concerning the pur-
chase and use of additional integrated keyfobs, con-
tact your NISSAN dealer.CAUTION
