The RearView Monitor is a conve-
nience but it is not a substitute to
check behind the vehicle when
backing up.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
. Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite like
ones viewed in the inside and out-
side mirrors.
. Make sure that the trunk is securely
closed when backing up.

tances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

HEADLIGHTS
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is
not a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, contact a NISSAN dealer.
