∙ Spill liquids on the cable and connec-tors.
∙ Do not connect the cable to the iPod® if the cable and/or connectors are wet. It
may damage the iPod®.
∙ If the cable and connectors are ex- posed to water, allow the cable and/or
connectors to dry completely before
connecting the cable to the iPod® (wait
24 hours for it to dry).

may cause a short between the con-
nector pins. In this case, replace the
cable, otherwise damage to the iPod®
and a loss of function may occur.
∙ If the cable is damaged (insulation cut, connectors cracked, contamination
such as liquids, dust, dirt, etc. in the con-
nectors), do not use the cable. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer to replace the cable with a new
one.
∙ When not in use for extended periods of time, store the cable in a clean, dust free
environment at room temperature and
