SONAR
The sonar (parking sensor) sounds a tone to
inform the driver of obstacles near the bumper.
WARNING
●The sonar (parking sensor) is a conve-
nience feature. It is not a substitute for
proper parking.
●The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10km/h) . It is reactivated
at lower speeds.●The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
●Always look around and check that it is
safe to move before parking.
●Read and understand the limitations of
the sonar (parking sensor) as contained
in this section.
●The colors of the sonar indicators and
the distance guide lines in the front,
front-wide, rear and rear-wide views in-
dicate different distances to the object.
●Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car wash,
a truck’s compressed-air brakes or a
pneumatic drill may affect the function
of the system; this may include reduced
performance or a false activation.
●This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid damaging the
vehicle.
●The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.

In the below cases, the sonar will be turned back
on automatically:
●When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
●When the CAMERA button is pressed and a
screen other than the camera view is shown
on the display.
●When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
●When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
OPERATING TIPS
●When the shift lever is shifted to the R (Re-
verse) position, the display screen automati-
cally changes to the RearView Monitor
mode. However, the radio can be heard.
●When the view is switched, the display im-
ages on the screen may be displayed with
some delay.
●When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display ob-
jects. This is not a malfunction.
●When strong light is directly coming on the
camera, 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 colors of objects on the RearView Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the
actual color of the objects. This is not a
malfunction.
●Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark environment. This is not a malfunction.
●If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the cam-
era, the RearView Monitor may not display
objects clearly. Clean the camera.
●Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water.
CAUTION
●Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,
wipe with a cloth dampened with di-
luted mild cleaning agent and then wipe
with a dry cloth.
●Do not damage the camera as the moni-
tor screen may be adversely affected.With the ignition switch in the ON position, press
the CAMERA button or move the shift lever to the
R (Reverse) position to operate the Around View
Monitor. The monitor displays various views of
the position of the vehicle in a split screen format.
WARNING
●The Around View Monitor is a conve-
nience feature. It is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed.
The four corners of the vehicle in par-
ticular are blind spots where objects do
not appear in the bird’s-eye, front or
rear views. Always look out the win-
dows and check with your own eyes to
be sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always operate
the vehicle slowly.
●The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
●Do not use the Around View Monitor
with the outside mirror in the stored
position, and make sure that the liftgate
is securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View Monitor.

position, and make sure that the liftgate
is securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View Monitor.
●The distance between objects viewed
on the Around View Monitor differs
from the actual distance.
●The cameras are installed on the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the
rear license plate. Do not put anything
on the cameras.●When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. 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 cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
AVAILABLE VIEWS
WARNING
●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved,
level surface. The distance viewed on
the monitor may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.●The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from the actual dis-
tance because a wide-angle lens is
used.
●Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly affected
by the number of occupants, fuel level,
vehicle position, road condition and
road grade.
●If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
●When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
●Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
●Objects in the monitor will appear visu-
ally opposite than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
4-30Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predictive course lines are shown at back of the
vehicle.
WARNING
●Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap-
pear further than the actual distance
because the bird’s-eye view is a pseudo
view that is processed by combining the
views from the cameras on the outside
mirrors, the front and the rear of the
vehicle.
●Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
●Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
●The view of the bird’s-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters.
●A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment
will increase as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
●Tire angle display does not indicate the
actual tire angle.

HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER
(automatic)
4-42Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

The air conditioner system in your NISSAN ve-
hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with
the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is re-
quired when servicing your NISSAN air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants
will cause severe damage to your air conditioner
system. For additional information, refer to “Air
conditioner system refrigerant and oil recommen-
dations” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
A NISSAN dealer is able to service your “environ-
mentally friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment.
RADIO
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position and press the VOL (volume)/ON·OFF
(power) knob to turn the radio on. If you listen to
the radio with the engine not running, the ignition
switch should be placed in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
normally are caused by these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance ra-
dio reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the qual-
ity of that reception.
However, there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the finest equipment is used. These char-
acteristics are completely normal in a given re-
ception area and do not indicate any malfunction
in your NISSAN radio system.Reception conditions will constantly change be-
cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other ve-
hicles can work against ideal reception. De-
scribed below are some of the factors that can
affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the de-
vice in a different location may reduce or elimi-
nate the noise.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 – 30 mi
(40 – 48 km) , with monaural (single channel) FM
having slightly more range than stereo FM. Exter-
nal influences may sometimes interfere with FM
station reception even if the FM station is within
25 mi (40 km) . The strength of the FM signal is
directly related to the distance between the
transmitter and receiver. FM signals follow a line-
of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same char-
acteristics as light. For example, they will reflect
off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.eb
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position
