3. To turn off the heater, return the switch tothe level position. Make sure the indicator
light turns off.
The heater is controlled by a thermostat,
automatically turning the heater on and off.
The indicator light will remain on as long as
the switch is on.
When the vehicle’s interior is warmed, or
before you leave the vehicle, be sure to turn
off the switch.
SIC4334
The climate controlled seat warms up or cools
down the front seats by blowing warm or cool air
from the surface of the seat. The switches
located on the instrument panel can be operated
independently of each other.
1. Start the engine.
2. Turn the control knob
*Ato the heat side
*1or to the cool side*2. The indicator
light
*Bon the control knob will illuminate.
3. Adjust the temperature using the control knob
*A.
4. When the vehicle’s interior is warmed or cooled, and/or before you leave the vehicle,
be sure to turn the control knob to the OFF
position (center) . The indicator light
*Bon the control knob goes off at the OFF
position.
The climate controlled seat has air filters. If
the climate controlled seat is not functioning
properly, it may indicate the air filters may be
clogged. To check the air filters for the
climate controlled seat, it is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use
the climate controlled seats if you or
the occupants cannot monitor seat
temperatures or have an inability to
feel pain in those body parts in contact
with the seat. Use of the climate con-
trolled seats by such people could
result in serious injury.
CAUTION
.
The battery could run down if the
climate controlled seat is operated
while the engine is not running.
. Do not use the climate controlled
seat for extended periods or when
Instruments and controls2-45
CLIMATE CONTROLLED SEATS (if
so equipped)
2-46Instruments and controls
no one is using the seat.
. Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates heat, such as a
blanket, cushion, seat cover, etc.
Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.
. Do not place anything hard or heavy
on the seat or pierce it with a pin or
similar object. This may result in
damage to the climate controlled
seat.
. Any liquid spilled on the seat should
be removed immediately with a dry
cloth.
. The climate controlled seat has an
air filter. Do not operate climate
controlled seat without an air filter.
This may result in damage to the
system.
. When cleaning the seat, never use
gasoline, thinner, or any similar
materials.
. If any malfunctions are found or the
climate controlled seat does not
operate, turn the switch off and
have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

The warning systems switch is used to turn on
and off the warning systems (Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) and Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
systems) that are activated using the settings
menu on the center display.
When the warning systems switch is turned off,
the indicator
*1on the switch is off. The
indicator will also be off if all of the warning
systems are deactivated using the settings
menu.
The LDW system will sound a warning chime
and blink the Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
indicator light (orange) to alert the driver if the
vehicle is traveling close to either the left or the
right of a traveling lane with detectable lane markers. (See “Lane Departure Warning (LDW)/
Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)” (P.5-23).)
The BSW system will turn on the side indicator
lights, located next to the outside mirrors, if the
radar sensors detect a vehicle in the detection
zone. If the turn signal is activated in the
direction of the detected vehicle, a chime
sounds twice and the side indicator light will
flash. (See “Blind Spot Warning (BSW)” (P.5-
33) .)
WARNING SYSTEMS SWITCH (if so
equipped)
FLAT TOWING
Towing your vehicle with all four wheels on the
ground is sometimes called flat towing. This
method is sometimes used when towing a
vehicle behind a recreational vehicle, such as a
motor home.
CAUTION
.Failure to follow these guidelines
can result in severe transmission
damage.
. Whenever flat towing your vehicle,
always tow forward, never back-
ward.
. DO NOT tow any automatic trans-
mission vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground (flat towing) . Doing
so WILL DAMAGE internal transmis-
sion parts due to lack of transmis-
sion lubrication.
. DO NOT tow a Four-Wheel Drive
(4WD) vehicle with any of the
wheels on the ground. Doing so
may cause serious and expensive
damage to the powertrain.
. For emergency towing procedures
refer to “Towing recommended by NISSAN” (P.6-17) .
Automatic Transmission
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) models:
Do not tow a 4WD vehicle with any of the
wheels on the ground.
Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) models:
To tow a vehicle equipped with an automatic
transmission, an appropriate vehicle dolly
MUST
be placed under the towed vehicle’s drive
wheels. Always follow the dolly manufacturer’s
recommendations when using their product. DOT (Department Of Transportation) Quality
Grades: All passenger car tires must conform to
federal safety requirements in addition to these
grades.
Quality grades can be found where applicable
on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
TREADWEAR
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1
1/2) times as well on the government course as
a tire graded 100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon actual conditions of their
use, however, and may depart significantly from
the norm due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in road char-
acteristics and climate.
TRACTION AA, A, B AND C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are
AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the
tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on spe-
cified government test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete. A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance.
