Advanced climate control system (if so
equipped)
The advanced climate control system keeps the
air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion
control and the automatic air intake control with
exhaust gas detecting sensor.
Push the “
AUTO” auto-recirculation button
(the indicator light on the “AUTO” auto-
recirculation button will illuminate) to activate the
ion control and the automatic air intake control.
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster
®ions into the air blown from the
ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster
®ions automa-
tically.
“The high-density Plasmacluster
®ions gener-
ated in the air conditioner’s air stream not only
suppress airborne bacteria and reduce the
adherence of odors to the interior trim, but also
have a proven skin moisture preserving effect.”
The amount of Plasmacluster
®ions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the air
flow is high, “
”*Ais displayed on the
screen and when the air flow is low, the
indication in the screen changes to “
”*B.
Plasmacluster®and Plasmacluster®ions are
registered trademark of Sharp corporation.
Automatic air intake control with exhaust
gas/outside odor detection sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas
detection sensor. When the automatic air intake
control is activated, the sensor detects industry
odors such as pulp or chemicals, and exhaust
gas such as gasoline or diesel. When such
odors or gas are detected, “
”*Cwill
appear on the display and the system auto-
matically changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode.
The automatic air intake control can be activated when the “
AUTO” auto-recirculation button
is pushed (the indicator light on the “AUTO”
auto-recirculation button will illuminate) under
the following conditions.
. The air flow control is not in the front
defroster mode (the indicator light on the
front defroster“
FRONT” button is
turned off).
. The outside temperature is about 328 F
(08C) or above.
When the automatic air intake control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with positive and negative ions that
are emitted from the ventilator.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust gas
and automatically alternates between the recir-
culation mode and outside air circulation mode.
Turning the system off
Push the “ON·OFF” button.

the low tire pressure warning light
OFF. If the light still illuminates
while driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire as soon as possible. (See
“Flat tire” (P.6-3) for changing a flat
tire.)
. When a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will
remain on after 1 minute. Contact
your NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/
or system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not ori-
ginally specified by NISSAN could
affect the proper operation of the
TPMS.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or
aerosol tire sealant into the tires,
as this may cause a malfunction of
the tire pressure sensors.CAUTION
.The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with
tire chains or the wheels are buried
in snow.
. Do not place metalized film or any
metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the
windows. This may cause poor re-
ception of the signals from the tire
pressure sensors, and the TPMS will
not function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may temporarily
interfere with the operation of the TPMS and
cause the low tire pressure warning light to
illuminate. Some examples are:
. Facilities or electric devices using similar
radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
. If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is
being used in or near the vehicle.
. If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/
AC converter is being used in or near the
vehicle. FCC Notice:

TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the
TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert provides visual
and audible signals outside the vehicle to help
you inflate the tires to the recommended COLD
tire pressure.
Vehicle set-up:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe and level place.
2. Apply the parking brake and place the shiftlever in the P (Park) position.
3. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.
Operation:
1. Add air to the tire.
2. Within a few seconds, the hazard indicators will start flashing.
3. When the designated pressure is reached, the horn beeps once and the hazard
indicators stop flashing.
4. Perform the above steps for each tire.
.If the tire is over-inflated to more than approximately 4 psi (30 kPa) , the horn
beeps and the hazard indicators flash 3
times. To correct the pressure, push the
core of the valve stem on the tire briefly to
release pressure. When the pressure
reaches the designated pressure, the horn beeps once.
.If the hazard indicator does not flash
within approximately 15 seconds after
starting to inflate the tire, it indicates that
the TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert is not
operating.
.The TPMS will not activate the Easy Fill
Tire Alert under the following conditions:
— If there is interference from an external device or transmitter
— The air pressure from the inflation device is not sufficient to inflate the tire
— There is a malfunction in the TPMS system
— There is a malfunction in the horn or hazard indicators
— The identification code of the tire pres- sure sensor is not registered to the
system
— The battery of the tire pressure sensor is low
.If the TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert does
not operate due to TPMS interference,
move the vehicle about 1 m (3 ft)
backward or forward and try again.
If the TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert is not
working, use a tire pressure gauge.
AVOIDING COLLISION AND ROLL-
OVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe
and prudent manner may result in loss
of control or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times. Obey
all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive speed,
high speed cornering, or sudden steering
maneuvers, because these driving practices
could cause you to lose control of your vehicle.
As with any vehicle, a loss of control could
result in a collision with other vehicles or
objects, or cause the vehicle to rollover,
particularly if the loss of control causes the
vehicle to slide sideways. Be attentive at all
times, and avoid driving when tired. Never drive
when under the influence of alcohol or drugs
(including prescription or over-the-counter
drugs which may cause drowsiness) . Always
wear your seat belt as outlined in the “Seat
belts” (P.1-15) of this manual, and also instruct
your passengers to do so.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted or improperly belted person is

The BSW system uses radar sensors*Ainstalled near the rear bumper to detect other
vehicles beside your vehicle in an adjacent lane.
SSD1030Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on either
side of your vehicle within the detection zone
shown as illustrated. This detection zone starts
from the outside mirror of your vehicle and
extends approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the
rear bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)
sideways.
The BSW system operates above approximately
20 MPH (32 km/h). If the radar sensors detect a
vehicle in the detection zone, the BSW indicator
light illuminates. If the driver then activates the
turn signal, a chime will sound twice and the
BSW indicator light will flash.
WARNING
.The BSW system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedure
and is not designed to prevent
contact with vehicles or objects.
When changing lanes, always use
the side and rear mirrors and turn
and look in the direction you will
move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes. Never rely solely on the BSW
system.
. The BSW system may not provide a
warning for vehicles that pass
through the detection zone quickly.

BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW indicator light in the
outside mirror will illuminate in the direction of
the detected vehicle. If the turn signal is then
activated, the BSW indicator light flashes and a
chime sounds twice. The indicator light con-
tinues to flash until the detected vehicle leaves
the detection zone.
The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is pushed to
the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the bright-ness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver
activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into
the detection zone after the driver activates the
turn signal, then only the BSW indicator light
flashes and no chime sounds. (See “BSW
driving situations” (P.5-20).)
The BSW system is automatically turned on
when the engine is started and the BSW ON
indicator light
*1illuminates on the switch. You
can turn the BSW system off by pushing the
BSW switch on the instrumental panel.
NOTE:
If you continue to push the BSW switch
from off to on for over 4 seconds, a chime
will sound. This will change the default
status of the BSW system to OFF so that
this system will not automatically turn on
when the engine is started. If this proce-
dure is repeated, the default status will
return to ON.
WARNING
. Do not use the BSW system when
towing a trailer because the system
may not function properly.
