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.

GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.
M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional infor-
mation regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer
to “Vehicle loading information” (P.10-11).
WARNING
.Always install the cross bars onto
the roof side rails before loading
cargo of any kind. Loading cargo
directly onto the roof side rails or
the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
. Drive extra carefully when the
vehicle is loaded at or near the
cargo carrying capacity, espe-
cially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the cross
bars.
. Heavy loading of the cross bars
has the potential to affect the
vehicle stability and handling
during sudden or unusual hand-
ling maneuvers.
. Roof rack cross bars should be
evenly distributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof
rack cross bars load. .
Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal in-
jury.
POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
.Make sure that all passengers
have their hands, etc. inside the
vehicle while it is in motion and
before closing the windows. Use
the window lock switch to pre-
vent unexpected use of the
power windows.
. 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.
The power windows operate when the
ignition switch is in the ON position, or for
about 45 seconds after the ignition
switch is placed in the OFF position. If
the driver’s or front passenger’s door is

2-76Instruments and controls
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
provides a convenient way to consolidate
the functions of up to three individual
hand-held transmitters into one built-in
device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
.Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink® will retain
all programming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the origi-
nal transmitter for future programming
procedures (Example: new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased
for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” (P.2-76).
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver with any gar-
age door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as re-
quired by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became
effective for opener models man-
ufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then
automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
. During the programming proce-
dure your garage door or security
gate will open and close (if the
transmitter is within range). Make
sure that people or objects are
clear of the garage door, gate,
etc. that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be
turned off while programming
the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver. Do not breathe exhaust
gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or
death.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink®
The following steps show generic instruc-
tions how to program a HomeLink®
button. If you have any questions or are
having difficulty programming your
HomeLink® buttons, refer to the
HomeLink® web site at: www.homelink.
com/nissan or call 1-800-355-3515.
NOTE:
It is also recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink® for quicker
programming and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency.
1. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1-3 in (26-76 mm) away
from the HomeLink® surface, keeping
the HomeLink® indicator light
in
view.

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
