Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-19

∙ Do not attempt to top off the fuel tankaf ter 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 emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious mal-
function and possible injury. It could
also cause the
Malfunction Indi-
cator 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
filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
∙ Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in yourvehicle. For additional information,
refer to “Fuel recommendation” in the
“Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
∙ The Loose Fuel Cap warning message will appear 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 af ter the Loose Fuel
Cap warning message appears may
cause the
Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) to illuminate. ∙ Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly may cause the
Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL) to illumi-
nate. If the
light illuminates be-
cause the fuel-filler cap is loose or
missing, tighten or install the cap and
continue to drive the vehicle.
The
light should turn off af ter a
few driving trips. If the
light does
not turn off af ter a few driving trips,
have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
∙ For additional information, refer to “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and controls” sec-
tion of this manual.
∙ If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-27

Electric control type (if so
equipped)
The outside mirror remote control will op-
erate only when the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position.
Rotate the control dial to select the right or
lef t mirror. Adjust the mirror to the desired
position by moving the control dial.
Return the control dial to the center (neu-
tral) position to prevent accidentally mov-
ing the mirror.
Trailer tow mirrors (if so equipped)
WARNING
Objects viewed in the convex portion of
the trailer tow mirror are closer than
they appear. Be careful when changing
lanes or turning. Using only the convex
mirror could cause an accident. Use the
other mirrors or glance over your shoul-
der to properly judge distances to other
objects.
Use the outside mirror remote control to
adjust the top portion of the trailer tow
mirror. The lower portion of the trailer tow mirror
can be moved manually in any direction for
a better rear view.

3-34Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Pull the trailer tow mirror outward to ex-
tend it to the desired position for better
visibility while towing a trailer.
WARNING
Do not extend or retract mirrors while
driving. You may lose control of your ve-
hicle and cause an accident.
CAUTION
Driving in tight spaces with mirrors ex-
tended may cause damage to the
vehicle.
Power folding outside mirrors (if
so equipped)
CAUTION
Do not manually fold the power folding
mirrors. Manually folding the mirrors
can damage the mirrors.Push the switch to open or close the mir-
rors.
If one of the mirrors are manually operated
or bumped, the mirror body can become
loose at the pivot point. To correct elec-
tronic mirror operation, cycle the mirrors by
pushing the “CLOSE” switch until com-
pletely closed, then push the “OPEN” switch
until the mirrors are in the open position.

width and distances to objects with refer-
ence to the vehicle body line
Aare dis-
played on the monitor.
Distance guide lines

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill
surfaces or projecting objects will be actu-
ally located at distances different from
those displayed in the monitor relative to
the guidelines (refer to illustrations). When
in doubt, turn around and view the objects
as you are backing up, or park and exit the
vehicle to view the positioning of objects
behind the vehicle.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual dis-
tance. Note that any object on the hill is further
than it appears on the monitor.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limita-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ Do not use the MOD system when towing a trailer. The system may not
function properly.
∙ Excessive noise (for example, audio system volume or open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.
∙ The MOD system performance will be limited according to environmental
conditions and surrounding objects
such as:
– When there is low contrast be- tween background and the moving
objects.
– When there is a 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 a
mirror is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving objects in the display is not
changed.
∙ The MOD system might detect flowing water droplets on the camera lens,
white smoke from the muffler, mov-
ing shadows, etc.
∙ The MOD system may not function properly depending on the speed, di-
rection, distance or shape of the mov-
ing 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 extremely high or low, the screen may not dis-
play objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.
4-32Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

WARNING
∙ Do not leave children or adults whowould normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be lef t alone.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves 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 shif ting. Do not place cargo higher
than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
∙ Do not breathe exhaust gases; theycontain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dan-
gerous. 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 ve-
hicle inspected immediately.
∙ Do not run the engine in closed spaces such as a garage.
∙ Do not park the vehicle with the en- gine running for any extended length
of time.
∙ Keep the rear vent windows, lif tgates, doors and trunk lids (if so equipped)
closed while driving, otherwise ex-
haust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must
drive with one of these open, follow
these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation but-
ton to off and the fan control dial to
high to circulate the air.
∙ If electrical wiring or other cable con- nections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the lif tgate or the
body, follow the manufacturer’s rec-
ommendation to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle. ∙ The exhaust system and body should
be inspected by a qualified mechanic
whenever:
a. The vehicle is raised for service.
b. You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the passenger
compartment.
c. You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
d. You have had an accident involving damage to the exhaust system,
underbody, or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST (if so
equipped)
The three-way catalyst is an emission con-
trol device installed in the exhaust system.
Exhaust gases in the three-way catalyst
are burned at high temperatures to help
reduce pollutants.
