. Be sure theparking brakeisfully
released beforedriving. Failureto
do socan cause brakefailure and
lead toan accident.
. Do not release theparking brake
from outside thevehicle.
. Donot use theshift lever inplace of
the parking brake.Whenparking, be
sure theparking brakeisfully

Follow theseeasy-to-use FuelEfficient Driving
Tips tohelp youachieve themost fueleconomy
from yourvehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator andbrake pedal
application.
.
Avoid rapidstarts andstops.
.
Use smooth, gentleaccelerator and
brake application wheneverpossible.
.
Maintain constant speedwhilecommut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.
Look ahead totry and anticipate and
minimize stops.
.
Synchronizing yourspeed withtraffic
lights allows youtoreduce yournumber
of stops.
.
Maintaining asteady speedcanminimize
red light stops andimprove fueleffi-
ciency .
3. Use airconditioning (A/C)athigher vehicle
speeds.
.
Below 40MPH (64km/h) ,it is more
efficient toopen windows tocool the
vehicle duetoreduced engineload.
.
Above 40MPH (64km/h) ,it is more
efficient touse A/C tocool thevehicle
due toincreased aerodynamic drag.
.
Recirculating thecool airinthe cabin
when theA/C ison reduces coolingload.
4. Drive ateconomical speedsanddistances.
.
Observing thespeed limitandnotex-
ceeding 60MPH (97km/h) (where
legally allowed) canimprove fueleffi-
ciency duetoreduced aerodynamic
drag.
.
Maintaining asafe following distance
behind othervehicles reduces unneces-
sary braking.
.
Safely monitoring traffictoanticipate
changes inspeed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
.
Select agear range suitable toroad
conditions.
5. Use cruise control.
.
Using cruise control duringhighway
driving helpsmaintain asteady speed.
.
Cruise control isparticularly effectivein
providing fuelsavings whendriving on
flat terrains.
6. Plan forthe shortest route.
.
Utilize amap ornavigation systemto
determine thebest route tosave time.
7. Avoid idling.
.
Shutting offyour engine whensafefor
stops exceeding 30-60seconds saves fuel
and reduces emissions.
8. Buy anautomated passfortoll roads.
.
Automated passespermitdrivers touse
special lanestomaintain cruisingspeed
through thetolland avoid stopping and
starting.
9. Winter warmup.
.
Limit idling timetominimize impacttofuel
economy .
.
V ehicles typically neednomore than30
seconds ofidling atstart-up toeffectively
circulate theengine oilbefore driving.
.
Y our vehicle willreach itsideal operating
temperature morequickly whiledriving
versus idling.
10. Keeping yourvehicle cool.
.
Park yourvehicle inacovered parking
area orinthe shade whenever possible.
.
When entering ahot vehicle, opening the
windows willhelp toreduce theinside
temperature faster,resulting inreduced
demand onyour A/Csystem.

If you stop driving withtheengine idlingand
wait until thewarning lightstops blinking,
the AWD returns tothe AWD-V orAWD

when driving straight. Donot oper-
ate the AWD mode switch when

The brake system hastwo separate hydraulic
circuits. Ifone circuit malfunctions, youwillstill

Y ou may feelasmall clickandhear asound
when thebrake pedalisfully depressed slowly.
This isnot amalfunction andindicates thatthe

V acuum assisted brakes
GUID-0E2 3F656-D41A-4 88F-8147-9851A53DE80D
The brake booster aidsbraking byusing engine
vacuum. Ifthe engine stops,youcan stop the
vehicle bydepressing thebrake pedal. However,
greater footpressure onthe brake pedalwillbe
required tostop thevehicle andthestopping
distance willbelonger.
When thebrake pedalisdepressed slowlyand
firmly ,you may hear aclicking noiseandfeela
slight pulsation. Thisisnormal andindicates that
the Brake Assist System isoperating.
Using thebrakes
GUID-68FF F67F-04F0- 402E-BB4B-8 82B90506CCB
Avoid resting yourfootonthe brake pedalwhile
driving. Thiswillcause overheating ofthe
brakes, wearing outthebrake padsandshoes
faster andreduce gasmileage.
T o help reduce brakewearandtoprevent the
brakes fromoverheating, reducespeedand
downshift toalower gearbefore goingdownaslope
orlong grade. Overheated brakesmay
reduce braking performance andcould resultin
loss ofvehicle control.
WARNING
. While driving onaslippery surface,
be careful whenbraking, accelerat-
ing ordownshifting. Abruptbraking
or accelerating couldcause the
wheels toskid andresult inan
accident.
. Ifthe engine isnot running oris

ANTI-L OCKBRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
GUID-AD93 4732-3AE5-459A-B8C3 -7A014C0C24D9
WARNING
. The Anti-lock BrakingSystem(ABS)
is asophisticated device,butit
cannot prevent accidents resulting
from careless ordangerous driving
techniques. Itcan help maintain
vehicle control duringbraking on
slippery surfaces. Remember that
stopping distances onslippery sur-
faces willbelonger thanonnormal surfaces
evenwithABS. Stopping
distances mayalso belonger on
rough, gravelorsnow covered
roads, orifyou areusing tirechains.
Always maintain asafe distance
from thevehicle infront ofyou.
Ultimately, thedriver isresponsible
for safety.
. Tire type andcondition mayalso
affect braking effectiveness.
Ð When replacing tires,install the
specified sizeoftires onallfour
wheels.
Ð When installing aspare tire,
make surethatitis the proper
size andtype asspecified onthe
Tire andLoading Information
label. SeeªTire andLoading
Information labelº(P.9-12) of
this manual.
Ð For detailed information, see
ª Wheels andtiresº (P.8-31) of
this manual.
The Anti-lock BrakingSystem(ABS)controls
the brakes sothe wheels donot lock during hard
braking orwhen braking onslippery surfaces.
The system detects therotation speedateach wheel
andvaries thebrake fluidpressure to
prevent eachwheel fromlocking andsliding. By
preventing eachwheel fromlocking, thesystem
helps thedriver maintain steeringcontroland
helps tominimize swerving andspinning on
slippery surfaces.
Using thesystem
GUID-597 530BD-6BA 0-4B9D-B015-6FBB8D 66C7EE
Depress thebrake pedalandhold itdown.
Depress thebrake pedalwithfirmsteady
pressure, butdonot pump thebrakes. The
ABS willoperate toprevent thewheels from
locking up.Steer thevehicle toavoid obstacles.
WARNING
Do not pump thebrake pedal. Doingso
may result inincreased stoppingdis-
tances.

checked byaNISSAN dealer.
Normal operation
GUID-9CB A1EE9-2858-46A7-AF1 C-F9A91252FE68
The ABS operates atspeeds above3to 6MPH
(5 to10 km/h) .The speed variesaccording to
road conditions.
When theABS senses thatoneormore wheels
are close tolocking up,the actuator rapidly
applies andreleases hydraulic pressure. This
action issimilar topumping thebrakes very
quickly .You may feelapulsation inthe brake
pedal andhear anoise fromunder thehood or
feel avibration fromtheactuator whenitis
operating. Thisisnormal andindicates thatthe
ABS isoperating properly.However, thepulsa-
tion may indicate thatroad conditions are
hazardous andextra careisrequired while
driving.

The Vehicle Dynamic Control(VDC)system
uses various sensors tomonitor driverinputs
and vehicle motion. Undercertain drivingcon-
ditions, theVDC system helpstoperform the
following functions.
. Controls brakepressure toreduce wheel
slip onone slipping drivewheel sopower is
transferred toanon slipping drivewheel on
the same axle.
. Controls brakepressure andengine output
to reduce drivewheel slipbased onvehicle
speed (traction controlfunction) .
. Controls brakepressure atindividual wheels
and engine outputtohelp thedriver maintain
control ofthe vehicle inthe following
conditions:
Ð understeer (vehicletendstonot follow
the steered pathdespite increased
steering input)
Ð oversteer (vehicletendstospin dueto
certain roadordriving conditions) .
The VDC system canhelp thedriver tomaintain
control ofthe vehicle, butitcannot prevent loss
of vehicle controlinall driving situations.
When theVDC system operates, theVDC
warning light

so note thefollowing:
. The road maybeslippery orthe system may
determine someaction isrequired tohelp keep
thevehicle onthe steered path.
. You may feelapulsation inthe brake pedal
and hear anoise orvibration fromunder the
hood. Thisisnormal andindicates thatthe
VDC system isworking properly.
. Adjust yourspeed anddriving tothe road
conditions.
If a malfunction occursinthe system, theVDC
warning light
illuminates inthe instrument
panel. TheVDC system automatically turnsoff.
The VDC OFFswitch isused toturn offthe VDC
system. TheVDC offindicator
illuminates to
indicate theVDC system isoff. When theVDC
switch isused toturn offthe system, theVDC
system stilloperates toprevent onedrive wheel
from slipping bytransferring powertoanon
slipping drivewheel. TheVDC warning light
flashes ifthis occurs. Allother VDCfunctions
are off,and theVDC warning light
will not

on when theignition switchisplaced inthe off
position thenback tothe onposition.

. Do not modify thevehicle's suspen-
sion. Ifsuspension partssuchas
