WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer fluid may
freeze on the windscreen and obscure your vi-
sion. Warm the windscreen with the defogger be-
fore you wash it.
CAUTION
•Do not open/release the bonnet when the
front wiper arms are raised from their original
position.
•Do not operate the washer continuously for
more than 15 seconds.
•Do not operate the washer if the reservoir
tank is empty or frozen.
WINDSCREEN
The windscreen wiper and washer can be operated
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Wiper operation
Move the lever up or down to operate the wiper at
the following speeds:
•j1:Intermittent ()—TypeAorAUTO—
Type B (where fitted) operates the rain-sensing
auto wiper system. (See “Rain sensor (where
fitted)” later in this section.).
– The intermittent operation speed can be ad-
justed by rotating the ring forward
jA (slower)
or backwardjB (faster).
– The wiper operation speed will vary in accor-
dance with the vehicle speed in the AUTO
position. For example, when the vehicle
speed is high, the intermittent operation
speed will be faster.
•j2:Low ()– for continuous low speed op-
eration
•j3:High ()– for continuous high speed
operation
•j4 : — for a single sweep operation of the wiper.
Washer operation
Pull the lever towards youj5 to operate the washer.
For every fifth operation of the wiper and washer,
the headlight washing system (where fitted) will be
activated to clean the headlights. The headlight
washing system is only activated while the headlight
switch is in the
position. See “Headlight
cleaner (where fitted)” later in this section.

Vehicle dead battery – Back door lock
release lever (where fitted)
The vehicle’s back door can be unlocked from the
inside when the battery is dead. Tilt the seatback
down. Remove the cover from the lock and slide the
release lever
j1 as illustrated. See “Rear seats” in
the “1. Safety — Seats, Seat belts and Supplemen-
tal Restraint System” section for more information
regarding the seat operation.
ALARM SYSTEM (where fitted)
The alarm system provides visual and audible alarm
signals if parts of the vehicle are disturbed.
How to arm the alarm system
1. Close all doors, windows, back door and bon-
net.
2. Lock the vehicle using the keyfob (lock button),
for additional information, see “Integrated key-
fob/remote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section.
NOTE
If the vehicle is not fully locked, a door/bonnet/
back door is open, or the ignition switch is in the
ON position (after arming the system), the buzzer
will sound. After correctly closing, the buzzer will
stop.
Alarm system operation
The system will give the following alarm:
•The siren sounds intermittently and all direction
indicators will flash.
•The alarm automatically turns off after 28 sec-
onds.
The alarm is activated when:
•The volumetric sensing system (ultrasonic sen-
sors) is triggered.
•Any door/the back door is opened.
•The bonnet is opened.
•The ignition circuit is turned on without the own-
er’s key being used.
The alarm system will stop when:
•The vehicle is unlocked using the keyfob or intel-
ligent key unlock button.
•The ignition switch or ignition knob is turned to
the ON position with a registered NATS key.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by your NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
Ultrasonic sensors (where fitted)
The ultrasonic sensors (volumetric sensing) detect
movements in the passenger’s compartment. When
the alarm system is set to the armed position, it will
automatically switch on the ultrasonic sensors.
It is possible to exclude the ultrasonic sensors (e.g.
when leaving pets inside the car).

SECURITY SYSTEM
3-12Pre-driving checks and adjustments

•The NATS security indicator light (TypejB) is
located on the Driver’s side of the dashboard
and blinks whenever the ignition switch is in the
LOCK, “OFF” or Acc position.
If the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS) is mal-
functioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine will not
start, see your NISSAN dealer for NATS service
as soon as possible. Please bring all NATS keys
or NATS Intelligent Keys when visiting your
NISSAN dealer for service.
Additional information for RHD models
If the NATS is malfunctioning, this light will turn on
after flashing six times while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
However, if the NATS security warning light turns
off after the light has remained on for 15 minutes,
there is a 10 second time slot to start the engine
after the ignition is turned off. See your NISSAN
dealer for NATS service as soon as possible.

BONNET RELEASE
3-14Pre-driving checks and adjustments

If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the Fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical cir-
cuits are functioning properly. In this case, turn
the ignition switch “OFF” and wait for 10 sec-
onds. Then turn the key back to the ON position.
The vehicle should return to its normal operating
condition. If it does not return to its normal oper-
ating condition have your NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop check the transmission and have
the transmission repaired by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop, if necessary.
WARNING
When the fail safe operation occurs, the vehicle
speed may be lower than other traffic, which
could increase the chance of a collision. Be es-
pecially careful when driving. If necessary, drive
to the side of the road at a safe place and away
from traffic, to allow the transmission to return to
normal operation, or have the transmission re-
paired by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop,
if necessary.The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent un-
necessary fuel consumption, exhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
•When you stop the vehicle with the brake pedal
depressed (XTRONIC transmission) or with the
shift lever in N (Neutral) and clutch pedal re-
leased (MT), the engine is turned off automati-
cally.
•When you release the brake pedal (XTRONIC
transmission) or push the clutch pedal (MT), the
engine is automatically turned on.
CAUTION
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition turned OFF. Lock the ve-
hicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF will shut
down all electrical systems. Failure to do this may
result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System has stopped the engine and
will automatically restart the engine. The Stop/Start
symbol is shown in the vehicle information display.
NOTE
The Stop/Start System will not activate under
the following conditions:
•When the engine is kept idling without any driv-
ing after the engine is turned on.
•When the engine coolant temperature is low.
•When the battery capacity is low.
•When the battery temperature is low or extremely
high.
•When the vehicle is moved.
•When the vacuum in the brake servo decreases.
•When the engine bonnet is opened with the en-
gine running.
