2014 NISSAN QASHQAI battery

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.

Radio Data System (RDS) operation
(where fitted)
The RDS is a system through which encoded digital
information is transmitted by FM radio stations in
addition to the normal FM radio broadcasting. The
RDS provides information services such as station
name, traffic information, or news.
NOTE
•In some countries or regions, some of these
services may not be available.
Alternative Frequency (AF) mode:
The AF mode operates in the FM (radio) mode.
•The AF mode operates in the FM (radio), AUX or

selects the station with the optimum reception
conditions for the currently tuned-in station.

WARNING
Never remove the key or turn the ignition switch
to the LOCK position while driving. The steering
wheel will lock and could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle. This could result in serious
