the ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
ON position with the previously con-
nected cellular phone turned on and
carried in the vehicle.
NOTE:
Some devices require the user to accept
connections to other Bluetooth® de-
vices. If your phone does not connect
automatic ally to the system, consult
the phone’s owner’s manual for details
on device operation.
You can connect up to five different
Bluetooth® cellular phones to the in-
vehicle phone module. However, you can
talk on only one cellular phone at a time.
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following
notes.
.Set up the wireless connection be-
tween a compatible cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module be-
fore using the Hands-Free Phone
System. .
Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized by
the in-vehicle phone module. Please
visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth
or www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for a re-
commended phone list.
. You will not be able to use a hands-
free phone under the following condi-
tions:
— Your vehicle is outside of the cel-
lular service area.

such as in a tunnel, in an under-
ground parking garage, near a tall
building or in a mountainous area.
— Your cellular phone is locked to prevent it from being dialed.
. When the radio wave condition is not
ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other
person’s voice during a call.
. Do not place the cellular phone in an
area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle phone module to
prevent tone quality degradation and
wireless connection disruption.

5-12Starting and driving
vehicle is not designed for cor-
nering at the same speeds as
conventional passenger cars.
Failure to operate this vehicle
correctly could result in loss of
control and/or a rollover acci-
dent.
. Always use tires of the same type,
size, brand, construction (bias,
bias-belted or radial), and tread
pattern on all four wheels. Install
traction devices on the front
wheels when driving on slippery
roads and drive carefully.
. Be sure to check the brakes im-
mediately after driving in mud or
water. See “Brake system” (P.5-
106) for wet brakes.
. Avoid parking your vehicle on
steep hills. If you get out of the
vehicle and it rolls forward, back-
ward or sideways, you could be
injured.
. Whenever you drive off-road
through sand, mud or water as
deep as the wheel hub, more
frequent maintenance may be
required. See the maintenance
schedule shown in the “9. Main-
tenance and schedules” section. .
Spinning the front wheels on
slippery surfaces may cause the
AWD warning message to display
and the AWD system to automa-
tically switch from the AWD mode
to the 2WD mode. This could
reduce traction. (AWD models)
WARNING
Never remove the key or place the
ignition switch in the LOCK position
while driving. The steering wheel will
lock and could cause the driver to
lose control of the vehicle. This could
result in serious vehicle damage or
personal injury.
IGNITION SWITCH (models without
Intelligent Key system)

JVS1067X
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANS-
MISSION (CVT)
The ignition lock is designed so that the
ignition switch cannot be turned to the
LOCK position until the shift lever is
moved to the P (Park) position. When
moving the ignition switch to the LOCK
position, to remove the key from the
ignition switch, make sure the shift lever
is in the P (Park) position.
When the ignition switch cannot be
turned to the LOCK position:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)position. 2. Turn the ignition switch slightly in the
ON direction.
3. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK position.
4. Remove the key.
If the ignition switch is turned to the
LOCK position, the shift lever cannot be
moved from the P (Park) position. The
shift lever can be moved if the ignition
switch is in the ON position with the foot
brake pedal depressed.
JVS1067X
MANUAL TRANSMISSION (MT)
The ignition switch includes a device that
helps prevent accidental removal of the
key while driving.
The key can only be removed when the
ignition switch is in the LOCK position.

held for more than 2 seconds.) If the
engine stops while the vehicle is
being driven, this could lead to a
crash and serious injury.
Before operating the push-button igni-
tion switch, be sure to move the shift
lever to the P (Park) position (for Con-
tinuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
models) or the shift lever to the N
(Neutral) position (for Manual Transmis-
sion (MT) models).
