∙ ALWAYS provide information aboutthe proper use of vehicle safety fea-
tures to all occupants of the vehicle.
∙ ALWAYS review this Owner’s Manual for important safety information.
For descriptions specified for all-wheel
drive models, an AWDmark is placed at the
beginning of the applicable
sections/items.
As with other vehicles with features for
off-road use, failure to operate all-wheel
drive models correctly may result in loss
of control or an accident. For additional
information, refer to “Driving safety pre-
cautions” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver
differently from an ordinary passen-
ger car because it has a higher center
of gravity for off-road use. As with
other vehicles with features of this
type, failure to operate this vehicle
correctly may result in loss of control
or an accident.
For additional information, refer to
“On-pavement and off-road driving
precautions”, “Avoiding collision and
rollover” and “Driving safety precau-
tions” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
MODIFICATION OF YOUR VEHICLE
This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification could affect its
performance, safety, emissions or du-
rability and may even violate govern-
mental regulations. In addition, dam-
age or performance problems
resulting from modifications may not
be covered under NISSAN warranties.
WARNING
Installing an af termarket On-Board Di-
agnostic (OBD) plug-in device that uses
the port during normal driving, for ex-
ample remote insurance company

Thebutton will be on the NISSAN In-
telligent Key® if the vehicle has Remote Hy-
brid Start. This feature allows the hybrid
system to start from outside the vehicle.
The following features may be affected
when the remote start feature is used: ∙ Vehicles with automatic climate control
system will default to either heating or
cooling mode depending on outside
and cabin temperatures. For additional
information, refer to “Remote Hybrid
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 Hybrid Start to have the vehicle in
view. Check local regulations for any re-
quirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of

To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance

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 Hybrid Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within
the specified operating range from the ve-
hicle.
The Remote Hybrid Start operating range
is approximately 197 f t (60 m) from the ve-
hicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE VEHICLE
To use the Remote Hybrid Start feature to
start the hybrid system perform the follow-
ing: 1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Press the
button to lock all
doors. 3. Within 5 seconds press and hold
the
button until the turn signal
lights flash and the tail lamps turn on. If
the vehicle is not within view press and
hold the
button for at least 2 sec-
onds.
The following events will occur when the
hybrid system starts:
∙ The parking lights will turn on and re- main on as long as the hybrid system is
running.
∙ The doors will be locked and the climate control system may come on.
∙ The hybrid system will continue to run for 10 minutes. Repeat the steps to ex-
tend the time for an additional 10 min-
utes. For additional information, refer to
“Extending hybrid system run time” in
this section.
Depress and hold the brake then push the
push-button ignition switch to the ON po-
sition before driving. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Driving the vehicle” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
EXTENDING HYBRID SYSTEM RUN
TIME
The Remote Hybrid Start feature can be
extended one time by performing the
steps listed in “Remote starting the vehicle”
in this section. Run time will be calculated
as follows: ∙ The first 10 minute run time will start when the Remote Hybrid Start function
is performed.
∙ The second 10 minutes will start imme- diately when the Remote Hybrid Start
function is performed again. For ex-
ample, if the hybrid system has been
running for 5 minutes, and 10 minutes
are added, the hybrid system will run for
a total of 15 minutes.
∙ Extending hybrid system run time will bring you to the two Remote Hybrid
Start limit.
A maximum of two Remote Hybrid Starts,
or a single start with an extension, are al-
lowed between ignition cycles. The ignition
switch must be cycled to the ON position
and then back to the OFF position before
the Remote Hybrid Start procedure can be
used again.
