FOG LIGHT SWITCH (if so equipped)
To turn the fog lights on, turn the headlight
switch to theposition, then turn the switch
to theposition. To turn them off, turn the

The heated steering wheel system is designed
to operate only when the surface temperature of
the steering wheel is below 688F (208C) .
Push the heated steering wheel switch to warm
the steering wheel after the engine starts. The
indicator light
*1on the switch will illuminate.
If the surface temperature of the steering wheel
is below 688F (208C) , the system will heat the
steering wheel and cycle off and on to maintain a
temperature above 688F (208C) . The indicator
light will remain on as long as the system is on.
Push the switch again to turn the heated
steering wheel system off manually. The indica-
tor light will turn off. NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is above 688F (208C) when the switch
is turned on, the system will not heat the
steering wheel. This is not a malfunction.
HEATED STEERING WHEEL (if so
equipped)
A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging:
1. Push the “
” front defroster button. (The
indicator light on the button will illuminate.)
2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
. To quickly remove ice from the outside of the
windows, push the fan speed increase
button “
” and set it to the maximum
position.
. As soon as possible after the windshield is
clean, push the “AUTO” button to return to
the auto mode.
. When the “
” front defroster button is
pushed, the air conditioner will automatically
be turned on at outside temperatures above
238F( í58C) to defog the windshield, and
the air recirculate mode will automatically be
turned off.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger
compartment to improve the defogging
performance.
Manual operation
Fan speed control:
Push the fan speed increase “
” or decrease
“” buttons to manually control the fan speed.
Push the “AUTO” button to return to automatic
control of the fan speed.
Temperature control:
Turn the temperature control dial to set the
desired temperature.
Air flow control:
Pushing the “MODE” manual air flow control
button selects the air outlet to:
: Air flows from center and side ventilators.
: Air flows from center and side ventilators and foot outlets.
: Air flows mainly from foot outlets.
: Air flows from defroster and foot outlets.
Air intake control:
. Push the “
” air recirculation button to
recirculate interior air inside the vehicle. The
“
” indicator light on the button will come
on. The air recirculation mode cannot be
activated when the air conditioner is in the
front defrosting mode “
”.
. Push the “
” outside air circulation button
to draw outside air into the passenger
compartment. The “
” indicator light on the button will come on.
. To control the air intake automatically, push
and hold either the “
” air recirculation
button or the “” outside air circulation
button (whichever indicator light is illumi-
nated) . The indicator lights (both air recir-
culation and outside air circulation buttons)
will flash twice, and then the air intake will
switch to automatic control.
Turning the system off
Push the OFF button.
Upper vent system
When the upper vent “” button is pushed,
the air flow against the driver’s or passenger’s
upper body becomes gentle. The indicator light
on the button will illuminate.
In this mode, air from the upper ventilator flows
in order to control the cabin temperature without
blowing air directly on the occupants.
Push the upper vent “
” button when you
want the air conditioner to work quickly.
To turn the system off, push the upper vent
“
” button to turn the indicator light off.

LDW/LDP SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the LDW and LDP systems. Failure
to operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death. .
The system will not operate at
speeds below 45 MPH (70 km/h) or
if it cannot detect lane markers.
. The LDP system is primarily in-
tended for use on well-developed
freeways or highways. It may not
detect the lane markers in certain
roads, weather or driving condi-
tions.
. Do not use the LDP system under
the following conditions as it may
not function properly:
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, etc.) .
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow, etc.
— When driving on winding or uneven roads.
— When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire
wear, low tire pressure, installa- tion of spare tire, tire chains,
non-standard wheels) .
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or
suspension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
. The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the LDW and LDP systems may
not operate properly.
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers, lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly, yellow painted
lane markers, non-standard lane
markers, or lane markers cov-
ered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where the discontin- ued lane markers are still de-
tectable.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are shar- ply contrasting objects, such as
shadows, snow, water, wheel
ruts, seams or lines remaining

ABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the system
will be turned off automatically, a beep will
sound and the BSW system warning light
(orange)

caused by objects such as ice, frost or dirt
obstructing the radar sensors.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist, the
system will resume automatically.
If the BSW system warning light (orange)
*1continues to blink, have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

proper operation of BSI and prevent a system
malfunction, be sure to observe the following:
. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including transpar-
ent material) or install an accessory near the
camera unit.
. Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability of
detecting the lane markers.
