2012 NISSAN QASHQAI nissan connect

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then, close
the windows. This will allow the acceleration of
the air conditioner’s cooling operation.
Keep windows closed while the air conditioner is
operating.
The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the
“HOT” position, turn the air conditioner off. For
additional information, see “Engine overheat” in
the “6. In case of emergency” section.
If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To replace the fil-
ter, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The filter should be replaced if the airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily while operating the heater or air condition-
ing system.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle
is charged with an environmentally friendly refriger-
ant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing the NISSAN air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the air conditioning system.
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving.
The audio system operates when the ignition switch
is in the Acc or ON position. If you want to listen to
the radio or CD while the engine is not running, turn
the ignition switch to the Acc position. Do not use
for an extended period of time with the engine
stopped.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
NOTE
Models with NISSAN Connect system, see the
audio operation precautions in the separately
provided NISSAN Connect Owner’s Manual.
Radio
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.
Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this
occurs, remove the CD and dehumidify or
ventilate the player completely.

BLUETOOTH®MOBILE PHONE
FEATURE
WARNING
Whilst driving, using the mobile phone is ex-
tremely dangerous because it significantly im-
pairs your concentration and diminishes your re-
action capabilities to sudden changes on the
road, and it may lead to a fatal accident. This
applies to all phone call situations such as when
receiving an incoming call, during a phone con-
versation, when calling through the phone book
search, etc.
CAUTION
Certain country jurisdictions prohibit the use of
the mobile phone in the car without hands-free
support.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine WARNING
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. They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
To prevent luggage or packages from sliding
forward during braking, do not stack anything
in the cargo area higher than the seatbacks.
Secure all cargo with ropes or straps to pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting.
Failure to follow proper seating instructions
see “Seats” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion, could result in serious personal injury in
an accident or sudden stop.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colourless and odourless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can
cause unconsciousness or death.
If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open and have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.
Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such
as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely
necessary.
Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for any extended length of time.
Keep the back door closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive in
this way for some reason, take the following
steps:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Set the air recirculation mode (
)tothe
“OFF” position.
3) Set the fan speed control to the maximum position to circulate the air.
If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to a trailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
When a vehicle has been stopped in an open
area with its engine running for any significant
length of time, turn the fan on to force outside
air into the vehicle.
The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop whenever:
– the vehicle is raised for service.
– you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-ing into the passenger compartment.
– you notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
– you have had an accident involving dam- age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
AND DRIVING
Starting and driving5-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To ensure smooth gear changes, fully depress the
clutch pedal before operating the gear lever. If the
clutch pedal is not fully depressed before the trans-
mission is shifted, a gear noise may be heard. This
could result in damage to the transmission.
Start the vehicle in 1st gear and shift through the
gears in sequence according to the vehicle speed.Gear shift indicator (where fitted):
The gear shift indicator
jA located in the lower part
of the vehicle information display can help to im-
prove the level of environmentally friendly driving.
Following the gear shift indicator by changing to a
higher (or lower) gear whenever the UP (or DOWN)
arrow is displayed may improve fuel economy
An UP arrow suggests shifting to a higher gear, a
down arrow suggests shifting to a lower gear. However, the driver remains responsible for decid-
ing the most suitable gear according to actual ve-
hicle, road and traffic conditions.
NOTE
No arrow is displayed is some circumstances in-
cluding:
– The actual gear matches recommended gear
– The vehicle speed is approx. 0 km/h
Reverse gear:
To reverse with 5–speed manual transmission,
stop the vehicle and shift the gear lever into the
N (Neutral) position then to the R (Reverse) posi-
tion.
To reverse with 6–speed manual transmission,
proceed as follows:
1) Stop the vehicle.
2) Move the gear lever into the N (Neutral) posi-
tion.
3) Pull and hold the gear lever ring
j1up.
4) Move the gear lever into the R (Reverse) po- sition.
5) Release the gear lever ring and safely drive the vehicle backwards.
