WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use
the climate controlled seats if you or the
occupants can not monitor seat tem-
peratures or have an inability to feel
pain in those body parts in contact with
the seat. Use of the climate controlled
seats by such people could result in se-
rious injury.
CAUTION
∙ The battery could run down if the cli-mate control seat is operated while
the engine is not running.
∙ Do not use the climate control seat for extended periods or when no one is
using the seat.
∙ Do not put anything on the seat which insulates heat, such as a blanket,
cushion, seat cover, etc. Otherwise,
the seat may become overheated.
∙
Do not place anything hard or heavy on
the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar
objects. This may result in damage to
the climate controlled seat.
∙ Any liquid spilled on the seat should be removed immediately with a dry
cloth
∙ When cleaning the seat, never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, or any
similar materials.
∙ If any malfunctions are found or the climate controlled seat does not oper-
ate, turn the switch off and have the
system checked. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service. The climate controlled seat warms up or

The heated steering wheel system is de-
signed to operate only when the surface
temperature of the steering wheel is below
68°F (20°C).
Press the CLIMATE button to access the
heated steering wheel key. Touch the
heated steering wheel key
1to warm the
steering wheel af ter the engine starts. The
indicator light will come on.
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is below 68°F (20°C), the system will
heat the steering wheel and cycle off and
on to maintain a temperature above 68°F
(20°C). The indicator light will remain on as
long as the system is on. Touch the key again to turn the heated
steering wheel system off manually. The
indicator light will go off.
NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steer-
ing wheel is above 68°F (20°C) when the
key is touched, the system will not heat
the steering wheel. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
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.

heating or cooling mode depending on
outside and cabin temperatures. For
additional information, refer to “Remote
Engine Start with Intelligent Climate
Control” in the “Monitor, climate, audio,
phone and voice recognition systems”
section of this manual. Laws in some local communities may re-
strict the use of remote starters. For ex-
ample, some laws require a person using
Remote Engine Start to have the vehicle in
view. Check local regulations for any re-
quirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of
the Remote Engine Start feature. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Conditions the
Remote Engine Start will not work” in this

REMOTE ENGINE START
OPERATING RANGE
WARNING
To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation 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 unattended in your ve-
hicle. Additionally, the temperature in-
side 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.
CAUTION
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intel-
ligent Key may not function properly.
The Remote Engine Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within
the specified operating range from the ve-
hicle.
