WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions for the proper
use of the Intelligent Around View® Monitor system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
. The Intelligent Around View®
Monitor is a convenience feature
and is not a substitute for proper
vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed. The four corners of the
vehicle in particular, are areas
where objects do not always ap-
pear in the bird’s-eye, front, or
rear views. Always check your
surroundings to be sure that it is
safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always operate the
vehicle slowly. Always look out
the windows and check mirrors to
be sure that it is safe to move.
. The driver is always responsible
for safety during parking and
other maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The Intelligent Around View® Monitor
system is designed as an aid to the driver
in situations such as slot parking or
parallel parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen
format. All views are not available at all
times.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for MOD. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
. Excessive noise (for example,
audio system volume or open
vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
. The MOD system performance
will be limited according to en-
vironmental conditions and sur-
rounding objects such as:
— When there is low contrast
between background and the
moving objects.
— When there is blinking source of light.
— When strong light such as another vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is present.
— When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such
as when the outside mirror is
folded.
— When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
— When the position of the mov- ing objects in the display is
not changed.
. The MOD system might detect
flowing water droplets on the
camera lens, white smoke from
the muffler, moving shadows, etc.
. The MOD system may not func-
tion properly depending on the
speed, direction, distance or
shape of the moving objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage
to the parts where the camera is
installed, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be
altered and the MOD system may
not detect objects properly.
. When the temperature is extre-
mely high or low, the screen may
not display objects clearly. This is
not a malfunction.

WARNING
.The heater and air conditioner
operate only when the engine is
running.
. Never leave children or adults
who would normally require the
support of others alone in the
vehicle. Pets should not be left
alone either. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or con-
trols and inadvertently become
involved in a serious accident
and injure themselves. On hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause se-
vere or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode
for long periods as it may cause
the interior air to become stale
and the windows to fog up.
. Do not adjust the heating and air
conditioning controls while driv-
ing so that full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate
when the engine is running. The air blower will operate even if the engine is
turned off and the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
NOTE:
.
Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air condi-
tioner unit. Odor can enter the pas-
senger compartment through the
ventilators.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into
the passenger compartment. This
should help reduce odors inside the
vehicle.

Special charging equipment and lubricant
are required when servicing your vehicle’s
air conditioner. Using improper refriger-
ants or lubricants will cause severe da-
mage to the air conditioner system. (See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and
lubricant recommendations” (P.10-6).)
A NISSAN dealer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly air condi-
tioner system.
In-cabin microfilter
The air conditioner system is equipped
with an in-cabin microfilter. To make sure
the air conditioner heats, defogs, and
ventilates efficiently, replace the filter
according the specified maintenance in-
tervals listed in the "9. Maintenance and
schedules" section. It is recommended to
visit a NISSAN dealer to replace the filter.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Radio
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position and push the FM·AM button to
turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio
with the engine not running, the ignition
switch should be placed in the ACC
position.
Radio reception is affected by station
signal strength, distance from radio
transmitter, buildings, bridges, mountains
and other external influences. Intermit-
tent changes in reception quality nor-
mally are caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the
vehicle may influence radio reception
quality.
Radio reception:
Your vehicle radio system is equipped
with state-of-the-art electronic circuits to
enhance radio reception. These circuits
are designed to extend reception range,
and to enhance the quality of that recep-
tion.
However there are some general charac-
teristics of both FM and AM radio signals
that can affect radio reception quality in a
moving vehicle, even when the finest
equipment is used. These characteristicsare completely normal in a given recep-
tion area, and do not indicate any mal-
function in your vehicle radio system.
Reception conditions will constantly
change because of vehicle movement.
Buildings, terrain, signal distance and
interference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below
are some of the factors that can affect
your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices
may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a different
location may reduce or eliminate the
noise.
