WARNING
•Do not adjust the heater and air conditioner
controls or audio controls while driving so that
full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
•If you noticed any foreign objects entering the
system hardware, spilled liquid on the sys-
tem, or noticed smoke or fumes coming out
from the system, or any other unusual opera-
tion is observed, stop using the system imme-
diately and contact the nearest NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop. Ignoring such condi-
tions may lead to an accident, fire or electric
shock.
•Do not disassemble or modify this system. If
you do, it may lead to an accident, fire, or
electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not use the system when the engine is not
running for extended periods of time to prevent
battery discharge.
j1Display
j2Camera
When the shift lever is moved into the R (Reverse)
position, the monitor (NissanConnect display)
shows the view from the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary objects. It is intended to
help avoid damaging the vehicle when reversing.
However, the system will not detect small objects
below the bumper and may not detect objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
WARNING
•The rear-view camera is a convenience but it
is not a substitute for proper reversing. Al-
ways turn your head and visually check that
the manoeuvre is safe to do so before revers-
ing. Always reverse slowly.
•The distance from the objects viewed in the
rear-view monitor differs from actual distancebecause of the use of wide-angle lens. Ob-
jects in the rear-view monitor will appear visu-
ally reversed compared to those viewed in the
inside and outside mirrors.
•Make sure that the back door is securely
closed when reversing.
•The area below the bumper and corner areas
of the bumper cannot be viewed on the rear-
view monitor because of its monitoring range
limitation.
•Do not put anything on the rear-view camera.
The rear-view camera is installed above the
number plate.
•When washing the vehicle with high pressure
water, be sure not to spray it around the cam-
era. Otherwise, water may enter the camera
unit causing possibly water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, a fire or an electric
shock.
•Do not strike the camera. It is a precision in-
strument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or
cause damage resulting in a fire or an electric
shock.
CAUTION
There is a transparent cover over the camera
lens. Do not scratch the cover when cleaning dirt
or snow from it.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS REAR-VIEW MONITOR

HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
WARNING
•Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of oc-
cupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road con-
dition and road grade. Always check with your
eyes directly around the vehicle while revers-
ing.
•The distance guide line and the vehicle width
line should be used as a reference only when
the vehicle is on a level paved surface. The
distance viewed on the monitor is for refer-
ence only and may be different than the ac-
tual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
•When reversing the vehicle up a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are further than they
appear. When reversing the vehicle down a
hill, objects viewed in the monitor are closerthan they appear. Use the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder to properly judge
distances to other objects.
The lines which are displayed on the monitor, indi-
cate the vehicle’s clearance and distance between
the obstacle and the bumper
jA.
Displayed lines indicate the distances between the
obstacle and the bumper as follows:
j1 0.5 m (1.5 ft) – red
j2 1 m (3 ft) – yellow
j3 2 m (7 ft) – green
j4 3 m (10 ft) – green
NOTE
•The vehicle clearance lines are wider than the
actual clearance.
•The lines are indicated as reference distances
to the obstacle.
REAR-VIEW MONITOR SETTING
For details, see the separately provided NissanCon-
nect Owner’s Manual.
OPERATING TIPS
•When the shift lever is shifted to R (Reverse), the
NissanConnect display automatically changes to
the rear-view monitor mode.
•When the shift lever is returned to a position
other than R (Reverse), it may take some timeuntil the screen changes. Objects on the screen
may be distorted until they are completely dis-
played.
•When the temperature is extremely high or low,
the screen may not clearly display objects. This
is not a malfunction.
•When strong light directly enters the camera
lens, objects may not be displayed clearly. This
is not a malfunction.
•Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light from
the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
•The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
This is not a malfunction.
•The colours of objects on the rear-view monitor
may differ somewhat from those of the actual
object.
•Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night.
•If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the transparent
camera cover, the rear-view monitor may not
clearly display objects. Clean the transparent
camera cover.
•Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean
the transparent camera cover. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the transparent camera
cover, wipe with a cloth dampened with diluted
mild cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry
cloth.

•Do not damage the transparent camera cover as
the NissanConnect display may be adversely af-
fected.
•Do not use body wax on the transparent camera
cover. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water.
