INDICATORS FOR MAINTENANCE
1. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance comes for replacing tires. You can set or
reset the distance for replacing tires. (See “Trip
computer” in this section.)WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. See “Changing wheels and tires” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section. Many factors
including tire inflation, alignment, driving
habits and road conditions affect tire
wear and when tires should be replaced.
Setting the tire replacement indicator for
a certain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the tire
replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could re-
sult in tire failure. Serious vehicle dam-
age could occur and may lead to a colli-
sion, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
2. 3. 4. “Other” indicator
These indicators appears when the customer set
distance comes for checking or replacing main-
tenance items other than the tires. Other mainte-
nance items can include such things as the tire
rotation. You can set or reset the distance for
checking or replacing the items. (See “Trip com-
puter” in this section.) For scheduled mainte-
nance items and intervals, see your NISSAN Ser-
vice and Maintenance Guide.

When the shift lever is shifted into the R (Re-
verse) position, the monitor display shows a rear-
ward view from the vehicle.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Rear View
Monitor could result in serious injury or
death.
• The RearView Monitor is a conve- nience but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and look
out the windows, and check mirrors to
be sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always back up
slowly.
• The system is designed as an aid to the driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to
help avoid damaging the vehicle.
• The system will not detect small ob- jects below the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or
on the ground.
• The system cannot completely elimi- nate blind spots and may not show
every object. • Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of
its monitoring range limitation. The
system will not show objects below
the bumper, and may not show objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Moni- tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite than when
viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
• Make sure that the hatch is securely closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled on top of the hatch.
• When washing the vehicle with high pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a preci- sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera.
Do not scratch the cover when cleaning
dirt or snow from the cover.

HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
• Red line
1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
• Yellow line
2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
• Green line
3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
• Green line
4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
guide 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 reference
only and may be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed objects.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on
