always be in the LOCK position when working un-
der the bonnet or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
Once the air bag has inflated or the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt has been activated, the air
bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt will
not function again and must be replaced. The
air bag module should be replaced by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. The air
bag module cannot be repaired.
All air bag systems should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop if there
is any damage to the front end portion of the
vehicle.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the air bag system and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in
this Owner’s Manual.
If you need to dispose of an air bag or scrap
the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. Correct air bag disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.
FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG
INDICATOR LIGHT
WARNING
Since your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger air bag, it is not permitted to install
a rearward facing child restraint on the front
passenger seat unless the front passenger air
bag has been deactivated first.
Do not fit a rearward facing child seat on the
front passenger seat if the air bag activation/
deactivation system is malfunctioning. Your
vehicle must immediately be taken to a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop in such
a situation.
The front passenger air bag indicator light
,
located in the combination meter, illuminates for ap-
proximately 7 seconds and then goes off. This
means the system is operational.
The front passenger air bag indicator light warns of front passenger air bag status. If the front passen-
ger air bag has been deactivated, the light comes on
and stays on as long as the front passenger air bag
switch remains in the OFF position.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine ALARM SYSTEM (where fitted)
The alarm system provides visual and audible alarm
signals if parts of the vehicle are disturbed.
How to arm the alarm system
1. Close all doors, windows, back door and bon-net.
2. Lock the vehicle using the keyfob (lock button), for additional information, see “Integrated key-
fob/remote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section.
NOTE
If the vehicle is not fully locked, a door/bonnet/
back door is open, or the ignition switch is in the
ON position (after arming the system), the buzzer
will sound. After correctly closing, the buzzer will
stop.
Alarm system operation
The system will give the following alarm:
The siren sounds intermittently and all direction
indicators will flash.
The alarm automatically turns off after 28 sec-
onds.
The alarm is activated when:
The volumetric sensing system (ultrasonic sen-
sors) is triggered.
Any door/the back door is opened.
The bonnet is opened.
The ignition circuit is turned on without the own-
er’s key being used.
The alarm system will stop when:
The vehicle is unlocked using the keyfob unlock
button.
The ignition switch or ignition knob is turned to
the ON position with a registered NATS key.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by your NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
Ultrasonic sensors (where fitted)
The ultrasonic sensors (volumetric sensing) detect
movements in the passenger’s compartment. When
the alarm system is set to the armed position, it will
automatically switch on the ultrasonic sensors.
It is possible to exclude the ultrasonic sensors (e.g.
when leaving pets inside the car).
To exclude the ultrasonic sensors:
1. Turn the ignition switch 3 times within 7 seconds from the “OFF” to the ON position.
2. Close the door(s)/bonnet/back door and press the lock button
on the keyfob to lock all doors/
back door.
The ultrasonic sensors are now excluded from the
alarm system. All other functions of the system re-
main activated until the alarm system is disarmed
again.
NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (NATS)
The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or LOCK position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.

A LHD models
jB RHD models
To open the fuel filler lid, pull up the opener lever,
located below the instrument panel on the driver’s
side. To lock, close the fuel filler lid securely.
FUEL FILLER CAP
The fuel filler cap is a ratcheting type. Tighten the
cap clockwise until ratcheting clicks are heard.
Put the fuel filler cap on the cap holder as illustrated
while refuelling.
WARNING
Fuel is extremely flammable and highly explo-
sive under certain conditions. Always stop the
engine and do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks near the vehicle when refuelling.
Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the cap half
a turn and wait for any hissing sound to stop,
in order to prevent fuel from spraying out and
causing possible personal injury.
Use only a NISSAN fuel filler cap or exact
equivalent as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper operation of

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent un-
necessary fuel consumption, exhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
When the vehicle comes to rest the engine is
automatically stopped*.
The engine is then automatically restarted before
you are ready to drive away**.
CAUTION
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition turned OFF. Lock the ve-
hicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF will shut
down all electrical systems. Failure to do this may
result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System has stopped the engine and
will automatically restart the engine. The Stop/Start
symbol
j1 is shown in the vehicle information dis-
play.
*The Stop/Start System will
automatically stop the engine when all
the following conditions are valid:
– The gearshift lever is in Neutral position.
– The clutch pedal is fully released.
– The vehicle speed is below about 2 km/h (1 MPH).
– The driver’s seat belt is buckled.
– The driver’s door is closed.
NOTE
The following conditions must also be satisfied
before the engine is automatically stopped. If the
engine does not stop this does not indicate a
fault with the system:
– The outside air temperature is above about 5ºC.
– The engine coolant temperature is at normal operating levels.
– The vehicle has driven some distance since engine start.
– The battery voltage and temperature are within normal levels.
– The vehicle bonnet is closed.
– The steering wheel is not being turned.
– The front and/or rear screen defoggers are turned OFF.
**When the Stop/Start System symbol
(1) is displayed the engine starts running
automatically under at least one of the
following conditions:
– The clutch pedal is depressed.
– The brake pedal is repeatedly pressed (to main-tain vehicle braking performance).
– The battery voltage becomes low (due to electri- cal load from other vehicle systems like head-
lights, heaters, etc., or auxiliary devices con-
nected to the 12 volt socket inside the vehicle).
– The front and/or rear screen defogger is turned on.
– The vehicle speed is above about 2 km/h (1 MPH).
NOTE
The following conditions will prevent the Stop/
Start System automatically restarting the engine.
Starting the engine by turning the ignition switch
is then necessary:
– The driver’s seat belt is unbuckled, or driver’s door is open.
– The bonnet is open.
The Stop/Start System is always engaged at the
start of a journey (once the engine has been started).
The engine is automatically stopped and restarted
during the journey if conditions are suitable
