FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
● Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled.
Always stop the engine and do not
smoke or allow open flames or sparks
near the vehicle when refueling.
● Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
● Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap
can result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury. It could also cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to come on. ●
Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
● Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable fuel
containers:
– Always place the container on the ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are fill-
ing it.
– Use only approved portable fuel con- tainers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
●Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your
vehicle. For additional information, re-
fer to “Fuel recommendation” in the
“Technical and consumer information”
section of this manual. ●
The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning mes-
sage will be displayed/warning will ap-
pear if the fuel-filler cap is not properly
tightened. It may take a few driving trips
for the message to be displayed. Failure
to tighten the fuel-filler cap properly
after the LOOSE FUEL CAP warning
message is displayed/warning appears
may cause the
Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL) to illuminate.
● Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly may cause the
Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate.
If the
light illuminates because
the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing,
tighten or install the cap and continue
to drive the vehicle. The
light
should turn off after a few driving trips.
If the
light does not turn off after a
few driving trips, have the vehicle in-
spected. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● For additional information, refer to
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and controls” section
of this manual.
●
If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush
it away with water to avoid paint damage.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-29

CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering wheel,
after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged, may prevent the steering wheel
position from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner: Both
the tilt and telescopic steering operation must be
reset after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged in order to prevent the tilt and telescopic
operation from locking in one position. When the
battery has been recharged or replaced, perform
the following: ● For tilt operation, adjust the switch
1so the
steering wheel moves to the highest position
2that can be reached.
● For telescopic operation, adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to the most
forward and backward position
3that can
be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range of
the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic function.
Entry/Exit function (if so equipped)
The automatic drive positioner system will make
the steering wheel move up automatically when
the driver’s door is opened and the ignition
switch is in the LOCK position. This lets the driver
get into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position when
the driver’s door is closed and the ignition switch
is pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Automatic
drive positioner” in this section.

NOTE:
If a NEW memory position is stored in the
linked memory switch, then the key fob will
link the NEW position and overwrites the
previous position.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
and automatic operation steering column will au-
tomatically move when the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to get into
and out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up:● When the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition switch placed in the OFF position.
● When the ignition switch is changed from
ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return to
the previous position: ● When the ignition switch is changed from
ACC or ON while the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or can-
celed through the vehicle settings in the vehicle
information display by performing the following: ● Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF. ●
Switch the Exit Steering UP from ON to
OFF.
Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
opens, the stored memory positions will be lost
and some of the functions will be restricted:
1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function should now work properly.
SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION
The position of the following settings can be
linked to the Intelligent Key and the memorized
settings can be available for each Intelligent Key. ● Climate control system
● Navigation system (if so equipped)
● Audio system
To use the memory function, set the climate,
navigation and audio systems to the driver’s pre-
ferred settings. Lock the doors with the Intelligent
Key. Each Intelligent Key may be set with the
driver’s individual preferences. When a new In- telligent Key is used, “Connection with the key
has been done” will be displayed on the screen
and the memorized settings are available.
To engage the memorized settings, perform the
following:
1. Carry the Intelligent Key that is linked to the memorized settings.
2. Unlock the doors by pushing the driver’s door handle request switch or the
UNLOCK
button on the Intelligent
Key.
3. Place the ignition switch in the “ON” posi- tion. The settings linked to the Intelligent Key
will start.

Fading: This occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
HD Radio™ Technology reception (for
U.S.)
HD Radio™ Technology reception needs to be
activated to receive HD Radio broadcasts. For
additional information, refer to “Audio settings” in
this section.
This enables you to receive radio broadcasts
digitally (where available) , providing a better
quality sound with clear reception. When this
feature is not activated or HD Radio broadcasts
are not available, you will receive analog radio
(AM/FM) broadcasts.
Satellite radio reception
When the satellite radio is used for the first time
or the battery has been replaced, the satellite
radio may not work properly. This is not a mal-
function. Wait more then 10 minutes with the
satellite radio on and the vehicle outside of any
metal or large building for the satellite radio to
receive all of the necessary date.The satellite radio requires an active SiriusXM
Satellite Radio subscription. The satellite service
is available only to those at least 18 and older in
the 48 contiguous United States.
The satellite radio performance may be affected if
the cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite
radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the satellite
antenna.
The build up of ice on the satellite radio antenna
can affect satellite radio performance. Remove
the ice to restore satellite radio reception.
