WARNING
. Use a phone after stopping your
vehicle in a safe location. If you
have to use a phone while driving,
exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
. If you are unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation
while talking on the phone, pull
off the road to a safe location and
stop your vehicle.
CAUTION
To avoid discharging the vehicle
battery, use a phone after starting
the engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with the Blue-
tooth® Hands-Free Phone System. If you
have a compatible Bluetooth® enabled
cellular phone, you can set up the wire-
less connection between your cellular
phone and the in-vehicle phone module.
With Bluetooth® wireless technology, you
can make or receive a hands-free tele-
phone call with your cellular phone in the vehicle.
Once your cellular phone is connected to
the in-vehicle phone module, no other
phone connecting procedure is required.
Your phone is automatically connected
with the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position with the connected cellular
phone turned on and carried in the
vehicle.
You can register up to five different Blue-
tooth® cellular phones to the in-vehicle
phone module. However, you can talk on
only one cellular phone at a time.
NISSAN Voice Recognition system sup-
ports the phone commands, so dialing a
phone number using your voice is possi-
ble. For more details, see “NISSAN Voice
Recognition system (models with naviga-
tion system)” (P.4-100).
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following
notes.
.
Set up the wireless connection be-
tween a cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using
the Hands-Free Phone System.
. Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized by
the in-vehicle phone module. Please

How to say numbers
NISSAN Voice Recognition requires a
certain way to speak numbers in voice
commands. Refer to the following exam-
ples.
General rule: Either “zero” or “oh” can be
used for “0”.
Phone numbers:
Speak phone numbers according to the
following example. For 1-800-662-6200,
say dial number and then speak the
phone number in any of the following
formats:
. “one eight oh oh six six two six two oh
oh”
. “one eight hundred six six two six two
oh oh”
. “one eight zero zero six six two six two
oh oh”
For the best voice recognition phone
dialing results, say phone numbers as
single digits. Also, full numbers can only
be spoken for “800”. For example, you
cannot say 555-6000 as “five five five six
thousand”.

sion (CVT) models
The ignition lock is designed so that the
ignition switch position cannot be
switched to OFF until the shift lever is
moved to the P (Park) position.
When the ignition switch cannot be
pushed toward the OFF position, proceed
as follows:
1. Move the shift lever into the P (Park)position.
2. Push the ignition switch. The ignition switch position will change to the ON
position.
3. Push the ignition switch again to the OFF position.
The shift lever can be moved from the P
(Park) position if the ignition switch is in
the ON position and the brake pedal is
depressed.
PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH
POSITIONS
LOCK (Normal parking position)
The ignition switch can only be locked at
this position.
The ignition switch will lock when any
door is opened or closed with the ignition
switched off.
ON (Normal operating position)
The ignition system and the electrical
accessory power activate at this position
without the engine turned on.
The ON position has a battery saver
feature that will place the ignition switch
in the OFF position, if the vehicle is not
running, after some time under the fol-
lowing conditions:
. all doors are closed.
. shift lever is in P (Park) position (CVT
model) or N (Neutral) position (MT
model).
The battery saver feature will be can-
celled if any of the following occur:
. any door is opened.
. shift lever is moved out of the P (Park)
position (CVT model). .
ignition switch changes position.
OFF position
The engine is turned off in this position.
Auto ACC position
With the vehicle in the P (Park) position
(CVT models) or the N (Neutral) position
(MT models), the Intelligent Key with you
and the ignition placed from ON to OFF,
the radio can still be used for a period of
time, or until the driver’s door is opened.
After a period of time, functions such as
radio, navigation (if so equipped), and
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System
may be restarted by turning on the audio
system (See “Audio system” (P.4-38) in this
manual), or by the UNLOCK button on the
Intelligent Key for up to a total of 30
minutes.
EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUT OFF
To shut off the engine in an emergency
situation while driving, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:
.Rapidly push the push-button ignition
switch 3 consecutive times in less
than 1.5 seconds, or
. Push and hold the push-button igni-
tion switch for more than 2 seconds.

CAUTION
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000
km), follow these recommendations
to obtain maximum engine perfor-
mance and ensure the future relia-
bility and economy of your new
vehicle. Failure to follow these re-
commendations may result in shor-
tened engine life and reduced engine
performance.
. Avoid driving for long periods at con-
stant speed, either fast or slow. Do not
run the engine over 4,000 rpm.
. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any
gear.
. Avoid quick starts.
. Avoid hard braking as much as possi-
ble. Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient
Driving Tips to help you achieve the most
fuel economy from your vehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator and brake
pedal application.
.Avoid rapid starts and stops..Use smooth, gentle accelerator andbrake application whenever possi-
ble.
.Maintain constant speed whilecommuting and coast whenever
possible.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.Look ahead to try and anticipate and minimize stops.
.Synchronizing your speed with traf-fic lights allows you to reduce your
number of stops.
.Maintaining a steady speed canminimize red light stops and im-
prove fuel efficiency.
3. Use air conditioning (A/C) at higher vehicle speeds.
.Below 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is moreefficient to open windows to cool
the vehicle due to reduced engine
load.
.Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is more
efficient to use A/C to cool the
vehicle due to increased aerody-
namic drag.
.Recirculating the cool air in thecabin when the A/C is on reduces
cooling load.
4. Drive at economical speeds and dis- tances.
.Observing the speed limit and notexceeding 60 MPH (97 km/h)
(where legally allowed) can improve
fuel efficiency due to reduced aero-
dynamic drag.
.Maintaining a safe following dis-tance behind other vehicles re-
duces unnecessary braking.
.Safely monitoring traffic to antici- pate changes in speed permits
reduced braking and smooth accel-
eration changes.
.Select a gear range suitable to roadconditions.
5. Use cruise control.
.Using cruise control during highway driving helps maintain a steady
speed.
.Cruise control is particularly effec-tive in providing fuel savings when
driving on flat terrains.
6. Plan for the shortest route.
.Utilize a map or navigation system to determine the best route to save
time.
