The vehicle should be driven with the VDC
system on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the
VDC system reduces the engine output to
reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will
be reduced even if the accelerator is de-
pressed to the floor. If maximum engine
power is needed to free a stuck vehicle,
turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. The
indicator light and
the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
system warning light will come on. Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart
the engine to turn on the system. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Vehicle Dy-
namic Control (VDC) system” in the “Start-
ing and driving” section of this manual.
The E-call (SOS) button is used in combina-
tion with a NissanConnect® Services sub-
scription to call for assistance in case of an
emergency.
Pressing the button will (with a paid sub-
scription) reach a response specialist that
will provide assistance based on the situa-
tion described by the vehicle’s occupant. For
additional information, or to enroll your ve-
hicle, refer to www.NissanUSA.com/connect,

∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver’s air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious or
fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION (if so
equipped)
Tilt and telescopic operation
To adjust the steering wheel move the
switch
1in the following directions:
∙ Adjust the steering wheel up or down in direction
2to the desired tilt position.
∙ Adjust the steering wheel forward or backward in direction
3to the desired
telescopic position.
CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering
wheel, af ter the vehicle’s battery has
been discharged, may prevent the
steering wheel position from being
adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Both the tilt and telescopic steering
operation must be reset af ter the vehicle’s
battery has been discharged in order to
prevent the tilt and telescopic operation
from locking in one position. When the bat-
tery has been recharged or replaced, per-
form the following: ∙ For tilt operation, adjust the switch
1
so the steering wheel moves to the
highest position
2that can be
reached.
∙ For telescopic operation, adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves
to the most forward and backward po-
sition
3that can be reached.
Performing these operations resets the
range of the steering wheel’s tilt and tele-
scopic function.
Entry/Exit function
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up auto-
matically when the driver’s door is opened
and the ignition switch is in the LOCK posi-
tion. This lets the driver get into and out of
the seat more easily. The steering wheel
moves back into position when the driver’s
door is closed and the ignition switch is
pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Auto-
matic drive positioner” in this section.

Manual folding outside mirrors
Pull the outside mirror toward the door to
fold it.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
The reverse tilt-down feature will turn both
outside mirror surfaces downward to pro-
vide better rear visibility close to the vehicle
when the mirror control switch is in either
the L or R position.
The mirrors automatically return to their
original position when you shif t out of R
(Reverse).The outside mirror surfaces will return to
their original position when one of the fol-
lowing has occurred:
∙ The shif t lever is moved to any position other than R (Reverse).
∙ The outside mirror control switch is set to the neutral or center position.
∙ The ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in
the center (neutral) position, mirror sur-
face will NOT turn downward when the
shif t lever is moved to R (Reverse).
For additional information regarding this
feature, refer to “Automatic drive posi-
tioner” in this section.
Heated mirrors (if so equipped)
Some outside mirrors can be heated to
defrost, defog, or de-ice for improved vis-
ibility. For additional information, refer to
“Rear window and outside mirror (if so
equipped) defroster switch” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual. The automatic drive positioner system has
three features:
∙ Memory storage function (key-link)
∙ Memory storage function (switch)
∙ Entry/exit function
Key-link, when enabled, automatically re-
tains the driver’s last seat, automatic steer-
ing wheel, and outside mirror positions for
that specific key when the ignition is turned
from ON to OFF.
Each memory switch button (1 or 2) on the
driver’s door can also store one additional
position which is independent of the key-
linked position.

seat and steering column will automati-
cally move when the shif t lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to
easily get in and out of the driver’s seat. The driver’s seat will slide backward and
the steering wheel will move up:
∙ When the driver’s door is opened and the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
∙ When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous position: ∙ When the ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON while the shif t lever is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through the “Vehicle Settings” in
the vehicle information display by perform-
ing the following: ∙ Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.
∙ Switch the Exit Steering Up from ON to OFF.
