1-56Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
electrical equipment. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment
and probing devices should not
be used on the pretensioner sys-
tem.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Correct
pretensioner disposal procedures
are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.
The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with
the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat
belt retractor. These seat belts are used
the same way as conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is
released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is not harmful and does not
indicate a fire. Care should be taken not
to inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the
chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
is used to indicate malfunctions in
the pretensioner system. See “Supple-
mental air bag warning light” (P.1-57). If
the operation of the supplemental air bag
warning light indicates there is a mal-
function, have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the preten-
sioner system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Man-
ual.

PARCEL SHELF
WARNING
.Never put anything on the parcel
shelf, no matter how small. Any
object on it could cause an injury
in case of an accident or if the
brakes are applied suddenly.
. Do not leave the parcel shelf in
position when it is disengaged
from the grooves.
. Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury
. The child restraint top tether
strap may be damaged by con-
tact with the parcel shelf or items
in the cargo area. Remove the
parcel shelf from the vehicle or
store it in its storage space. Also,
secure any lose items in the cargo
area. Your child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision if the
top tether strap is damaged.
Removal
1. Open the liftgate. (See “Liftgate” (P.3-
25).)
2. Detach both of the ropes (left and right)
from the inside of the liftgate.
3. Detach the parcel shelf by simply pulling it rearwards through the lift-
gate opening.  

If the windows do not close auto-
matically
If the power window automatic function
(closing only) does not operate properly,
perform the following procedure to initi-
alize the power window system.
1. Start the engine.
2. Close the door.
3. After starting the engine, open thewindow completely by operating the
power window switch.
4. Pull the power window switch and hold it to close the window, and then
hold the switch more than 3 seconds
after the window is closed completely.
5. Release the power window switch. Operate the window by the automatic
function to confirm the initialization is
complete.
If the power window automatic function
does not operate properly after perform-
ing the procedure above, it is recom-
mended you have your vehicle checked
by a NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
. In an accident you could be
thrown from the vehicle through
an open moonroof. Always use
seat belts and child restraints.
. Do not allow anyone to stand up
or extend any portion of their
body out of the moonroof open-
ing while the vehicle is in motion
or while the moonroof is closing.
CAUTION
.Remove water drops, snow, ice or
sand from the moonroof before
opening.
. Do not place any heavy object on
the moonroof or surrounding
area.
POWER MOONROOF
The moonroof only operates when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
The moonroof is operational for about 45
seconds, even if the ignition switch is
pushed to the OFF position. If the driver’s
door or the passenger’s door is opened during this period of about 45 seconds,
power to the moonroof is canceled.
Instruments and controls2-63
MOONROOF (if so equipped)  

CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key
installed in the Intelligent Key.
WARNING
.Always have the doors locked
while driving. Along with the use
of seat belts, this provides great-
er safety in the event of an
accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from
the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from unin-
tentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
. Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming
traffic.
. To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and or its
systems, including entrapment
in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the
assistance of others or pets un-
attended in your vehicle. Addi-
tionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury
or death to people and pets.
SPA2457
LOCKING WITH KEY
The power door lock system allows you to
lock or unlock all doors simultaneously.
.Turning the driver’s door key cylinder
to the front of the vehicle
will lock all
doors and the liftgate.
. Turning the driver’s door key cylinder
once to the rear of the vehicle
will
unlock the driver’s door. After return-
ing the key to the neutral position,
turning it to the rear again within 5
seconds will unlock all doors and the
liftgate.
. You can switch the lock system to the
mode that allows you to open all the
doors when the key is turned once.

WARNING
.Do not leave children or adults
who would normally require the
support of others alone in your
vehicle. Pets should not be left
alone either. They could acciden-
tally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
.Do not breathe exhaust gas; it
contains colorless and odorless
carbon monoxide. Carbon mon- oxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive
with all windows fully open, and
have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
. Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for an extended
period of time.
. Keep the liftgate closed while
driving, otherwise exhaust gas
could be drawn into the passen-
ger compartment. If you must
drive with the liftgate open, fol-
low these precautions:
— Open all the windows.
— Turn the air recirculation
mode off and set the fan
speed control to the highest
level to circulate the air.
. If a special body or other equip-
ment is added for recreational or
other usage, follow the manufac-
turer’s recommendation to pre-
vent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle. (Some recreational
vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may
also generate carbon monoxide.)
. The exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a quali-
fied mechanic whenever:
— Your vehicle is raised while
being serviced.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the
passenger compartment.
— You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident involving damage to the ex-
haust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission
control device installed in the exhaust
system. Exhaust gases in the three-way
catalyst are burned at high temperatures
to help reduce pollutants.
WARNING
. The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep people,
animals and flammable materials

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB with pedestrian
detection system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
.The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system cannot detect all
vehicles or pedestrians under all
conditions.
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system does not detect the
following objects:
— Small pedestrians (including
small children), animals and
cyclists.
— Pedestrians in wheelchairs or using mobile transport such
as scooters, child-operated
toys, or skateboards.
— Pedestrians who are seated or otherwise not in a full upright
standing or walking position. — Obstacles on the roadway
— Oncoming vehicles
— Crossing vehicles
— Obstacles on the roadside
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system has some perfor-
mance limitations.
— If a stationary vehicle is in the
vehicle’s path, the AEB with
pedestrian detection system
will not function when the
vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 50 MPH
(80 km/h).
— For pedestrian detection, the AEB with pedestrian detection
system will not function when
the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 37 MPH
(60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function for
pedestrians in darkness or in
tunnels, even if there is street
lighting in the area.
. For pedestrians, the AEB with
pedestrian detection system will
not issue the first warning. .
The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function if
the vehicle ahead is narrow (for
example a motorcycle).
. The AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system may not function if
speed difference between the
two vehicles is too small.
. The radar sensor may not func-
tion properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
— Poor visibility (conditions such
as rain, snow, fog, dust
storms, sandstorms, and road
spray from other vehicles)
— Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp
curves.
— Driving on a bumpy road sur- face, such as an uneven dirt
road.
— If dirt, ice, snow or other ma- terial is covering the radar
sensor area.
— Interference by other radar sources.
. The camera may not function
properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:  

4.The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For ex-
ample, if the XXX amount equals
1400 lbs. and there will be five
150 lb. passengers in your vehi-
cle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity
is 650 lbs. (1400 − 750 (5 x 150) =
650 lbs) or (640 − 340 (5 x 70) =
300 kg.)
5.Determine the combined weight
of luggage and cargo being
loaded on the vehicle. That
weight may not safely exceed
the available cargo and luggage
load capacity calculated in Step
4.
Before driving a loaded vehicle,
confirm that you do not exceed
the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for your vehicle. (See
“Measurement of weights” (P.10-14).)
Also check tires for proper inflation
pressures. See the Tire and Loading
Information label.JVI1686X
SECURING THE LOAD
There are luggage hooks located in the
cargo area as shown. The hooks can be
used to secure cargo with ropes or other
types of straps.
Do not apply a total load of more than
22 lbs. (10 kg) to a single metal floor
hook when securing cargo.
WARNING
. Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat- backs. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
. The child restraint top tether
strap may be damaged by con-
tact with items in the cargo area.
Secure any items in the cargo
area. Your child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision if the
top tether strap is damaged.
. Do not load your vehicle any
heavier than the GVWR or the
maximum front and rear GAWRs.
If you do, parts of your vehicle
can break, tire damage could
occur, or it can change the way
your vehicle handles. This could
result in loss of control and cause
personal injury.
LOADING TIPS
.The GVW must not exceed GVWR
or GAWR as specified on the F.M.
V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification la-
bel.
.Do not load the front and rear
axle to the GAWR. Doing so will
exceed the GVWR.
