WARNING
.The sonar system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper
parking. Always look around and
check that it is safe to do so before
parking. Always move slowly.
. Read and understand the limita-
tions of the sonar system as con-
tained in this section. Inclement
weather may affect the function of
the sonar system; this may include
reduced performance or a false
activation. .
This system is not designed to
prevent contact with small or mov-
ing objects.
. The system is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle. The system will not
detect small objects below the
bumper, and may not detect objects
that are too close to the bumper or
on the ground.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper fascia, leaving it mis-
aligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate
measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
CAUTION
Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet
as possible to hear the tone clearly.
The sonar system sounds a tone to warn the
driver of obstacles near the bumper. When the
“Sonar Display” key is ON, the sonar indicator
will also appear in the center display. (See
“Sonar indicator” (P.5-134) .) The system de-
tects front obstacles when the shift lever is in the
D (Drive) position or N (Neutral) position. The
system detects both front and rear obstacles
when the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
The system may not detect objects at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
The sonar system detects obstacles up to 3.9 ft
(1.2 m) from the bumper with a decreased
coverage area at the outer corners of the
bumper. Refer to the illustration for approximate
zone coverage areas. As you move closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the tone increases. When
Starting and driving5-133
SONAR SYSTEM (if so equipped)
5-134Starting and driving
the obstacle is less than 11.8 in (30 cm) away,
the tone will sound continuously.
Keep the corner/center sensors (located on the
bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt (do not clean the sensors
with sharp objects) . If the sensors are covered, it
will affect the accuracy of the sonar system.
The sensitivity level of the corner/center sensors
can be adjusted (higher or lower) in the Sonar
setting display. (See “Sonar settings” (P.4-27) .)
The intermittent tone will stop in 3 seconds
when an obstacle is detected by only the corner
sensor and the distance does not change.

When an object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks (the tone sounds
intermittently) . When the vehicle moves closer
to the object, the color of the indicator turns
yellow and the rate of blinking increases (the
rate of the tone increases) . When the bumper is
very close to the object, less than 11.8 in (30
cm) away, the indicator stops blinking and turns
red (the tone sounds continuously) .
When the RearView Monitor is displayed,
the colors of the sonar indicator and the
distance guide lines in the rear view
indicate different distances to the object.
The sonar indicator can be turned off in the
sonar setting display. (See “Sonar settings”
(P.4-27) .) When the sonar indicator is off, only
a tone sounds when the sonar detect obstacles.
To shut off the engine in an emergency situation
while driving, perform the following procedure:
.Rapidly push the push-button ignition switch
3 consecutive times in less than 1.5
seconds, or
. Push and hold the push-button ignition
switch for more than 2 seconds.TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-
TEM (TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire
pressure of all tires except the spare. When
the low tire pressure warning light is lit and the
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning appears in
the vehicle information display, one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated. If the
vehicle is being driven with low tire pressure, the
TPMS will activate and warn you of it by the low
tire pressure warning light. This system will
activate only when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) . For more
details, see “Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders” (P.2-10) , “TIRE PRESSURE
information” (P.4-10) and “Tire Pressure Mon-
itoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5) .
WARNING
.If the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates or LOW PRESSURE in-
formation is displayed on the moni-
tor screen while driving, avoid
sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving with un-
der-inflated tires may permanently
damage the tires and increase the
likelihood of tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four
tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while driv-
ing after adjusting the tire pressure,
a tire may be flat. If you have a flat
tire, replace it with a spare tire as
soon as possible.
. Since the spare tire is not equipped
with the TPMS, when a spare tire is
mounted or a wheel is replaced, the
TPMS will not function and the low
tire pressure warning light will flash
for approximately 1 minute. The
light will remain on after 1 minute.
Have your tires replaced and/or
TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for these
services.

COLD pressure:
After the vehicle has been parked
for three hours or more or driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) .
COLD tire pressures are shown on
the Tire and Loading Information
label affixed to the driver side center
pillar.
After adjusting tire pressure to the COLD tire
pressure, the display of the tire pressure
information may show higher pressure than the
COLD tire pressure after the vehicle has been
driven more than 1 mile (1.6 km). This is
because the tire pressurizes as the tire tem-
perature rises. This does not indicate a system
malfunction.
Stowing the damaged tire and tools
1. Securely store the damaged tire, jack and tools in the storage area.
2. Close the cargo floor cover.
3. Replace the cargo floor board.
4. Close the liftgate.
WARNING
Always make sure that the spare tire
and jacking equipment are properly
secured after use. Such items can
become dangerous projectiles in an
accident or sudden stop.

Extended storage fuse switch (if so
equipped)
To reduce battery drain, the extended storage
fuse switch comes from the factory switched off.
Prior to delivery of your vehicle, the switch is
pushed in (switched on) and should always
remain on.
If the extended storage fuse switch is not
pushed in (switched on), the “SHIPPING MODE
ON, PUSH STORAGE FUSE” warning may
appear on the vehicle information display (if so
equipped) . See “Vehicle information display”
(P.2-20) .
If any electrical equipment does not operate,remove the extended storage fuse switch and
check for an open fuse.
NOTE:
If the extended storage fuse switch mal-
functions or if the fuse is open, it is not
necessary to replace the switch. In this
case, remove the extended storage fuse
switch and replace it with a new fuse of the
same rating.
How to remove the extended storage fuse
switch:
1. To remove the extended storage fuse switch,
be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF or
LOCK position.
2. Be sure the headlight switch is in the OFF position.
3. Remove the fuse box cover.
4. Pinch the locking tabs

TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire
pressure of all tires except the spare. When
the low tire pressure warning light is lit and the
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning appears in
the vehicle information display, one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) .
Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop
in tire pressure (for example, a flat tire while
driving) .
For more details, see “Low tire pressure warning
light” (P.2-15) , “Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)” (P.5-5) and “Tire Pressure Mon-
itoring System (TPMS) ” (P.6-3).
Tire inflation pressure
Check the pressure of the tires (including
the spare) often and always prior to long
distance trips. The recommended tire
pressure specifications are shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label under
the “Cold Tire Pressure” heading. TheTire and Loading Information label is
affixed to the driver side center pillar.
Tire pressures should be checked reg-
ularly because:
.
Most tires naturally lose air over time.
. Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at
moderate speeds.
TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert provides
visual and audible signals outside the
vehicle for inflating the tires to the
recommended COLD tire pressure.
(See “TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert”
(P.5-8) .)
Incorrect tire pressure, including
under inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
. Improperly inflated tires can
fail suddenly and cause an
accident.
. The Gross Vehicle Weight rat-
ing (GVWR) is located on the F.
M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certifica-
tion label. The vehicle weight
capacity is indicated on the
Tire and Loading Information
label. Do not load your vehicle
beyond this capacity. Over-
loading your vehicle may re-
sult in reduced tire life, unsafe
operating conditions due to
premature tire failure, or un-
favorable handling character-
istics and could also lead to a
serious accident. Loading be-
yond the specified capacity
may also result in failure of
other vehicle components.
