WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
Around View® Monitor. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these sys-
tem limitations could result in serious in-
jury or death.
●
Do not use the Around View® Monitor
with the outside mirrors in the stored
position, and make sure that the trunk is
securely closed when operating the ve-
hicle using the Around View® Monitor.
● The apparent 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 vehicle that covers 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. There are some areas where the system will not
show objects and the system does not warn of
moving objects. When in the front or rear view
display, an object below the bumper or on the
ground may not be viewed
1. When in the
bird’s-eye view, a tall object near the seam
2of
the camera viewing areas will not appear in the
monitor.
The following are operating limitations and do not
represent a system malfunction:
● There may be a delay when switching be-
tween views.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly.
● When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
● The colors of objects on the Around View®
Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects.
● Objects on the Around View® Monitor may
not be clear and the color of the object may
differ in a dark environment. ●
There may be differences in sharpness be-
tween each camera view of the bird’s-eye
view.
● Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth that has been
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent, then wipe with a dry cloth.

System temporarily unavailable
When the “!” icon is displayed on the screen,
there are abnormal conditions in the Around
View® Monitor. This will not hinder normal driving
operation but the system should be inspected by
a NISSAN dealer.When the “[X]” icon is displayed on the screen,
the camera image may be receiving temporary
electronic disturbances from surrounding de-
vices. This will not hinder normal driving opera-
tion but the system should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer if it occurs frequently.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
●
Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration.
● Do not damage the cameras as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of the
cameras
1, the Around View® Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera by wip-
ing with a cloth dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wiping with a dry cloth.

The Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sensor)
sounds a tone to inform the driver of obstacles
near the bumper.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the dis-
tance guide lines in the rear view indicate differ-
ent distances to the object.
WARNING
●The Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sen-
sor) is a convenience feature. It is not a
substitute for proper parking.
● The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/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 Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sen-
sor) as contained in this section.
● 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 ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the vehicle.
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
● The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
● The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects:
– Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, glass or wool. – Thin objects such as rope, wire or
chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
● Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
● Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the rear bumper fascia) free
from accumulations of snow, ice and
dirt. Do not scratch the surface of the
sonar sensors when cleaning. If the
sensors are covered, the accuracy of the
sonar function will be diminished.
The system gives the tone for rear objects when
the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.

CAMERA AIDING SONAR (parking
sensor) (if so equipped)
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-41

When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone sounds
intermittently. When the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the color of the indicator turns yellow
and the rate of the blinking and the rate of the
tone increase. When the vehicle is very close to
the object, the indicator stops blinking and turns
red, and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3 seconds
when an object is detected by only the corner
sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no longer
near the vehicle.
In the below cases, the sonar will be turned back
on automatically:● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
● 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.
● The Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sensor)
can be permanently turned off using the
meter settings. Adjust air flow direction for the center vents
1,
driver’s and passenger’s side vents
2, and rear
vents
3by moving the vent slide and/or vent
assemblies. Open or close the vents using the dial. Move the
dial toward theto open the vents or toward

WARNING
● The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
● Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
● Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
