result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury.
. Do not attempt to test a 4WD
equipped vehicle on a 2-wheel
dynamometer (such as the dy-
namometers used by some
states for emissions testing), or
similar equipment even if the
other two wheels are raised off
the ground. Make sure you inform
test facility personnel that your
vehicle is equipped with 4WD
before it is placed on a dynam-
ometer. Using the wrong test
equipment may result in drive-
train damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could
result in serious vehicle damage
or personal injury (4WD models).
. When a wheel is off the ground
due to an unlevel surface, do not
spin the wheel excessively.
. Accelerating quickly, sharp steer-
ing maneuvers or sudden braking
may cause loss of control.
. If at all possible, avoid sharp
turning maneuvers, particularly
at high speeds. Your vehicle has
a higher center of gravity than a
conventional passenger car. The
vehicle is not designed for cor- nering at the same speeds as
conventional passenger cars.
Failure to operate this vehicle
correctly could result in loss of
control and/or a rollover acci-
dent.
. Always use tires of the same type,
size, brand, construction (bias,
bias-belted or radial), and tread
pattern on all four wheels. Install
tire chains on the rear wheels
when driving on slippery roads
and drive carefully.
. Be sure to check the brakes im-
mediately after driving in mud or
water. See “Brake system” (P.5-
142) for wet brakes.
. Avoid parking your vehicle on
steep hills. If you get out of the
vehicle and it rolls forward, back-
ward or sideways, you could be
injured.
. Whenever you drive off-road
through sand, mud or water as
deep as the wheel hub, more
frequent maintenance may be
required. See the maintenance
schedule shown in the "9. Main-
tenance and schedules" section.
. Spinning the rear wheels on slip-
pery surfaces may cause the 4WD warning light to flash. The 4WD
system may also automatically
switch from the 4WD mode to
the 2WD mode. This could reduce
traction. Be especially careful
when towing a trailer (4WD mod-
els).

Shift ranges up or down one by one as
follows:
M1?
/M2 ?
/M3 ?
/M4 ?
/M5?
/M6 ?
/M7
M7 (7th):
Use this position for all normal forward
driving at highway speeds.
M6 (6th) andM5 (5th):
Use these positions when driving up long
slopes, or for engine braking when driving
down long slopes.
M4 (4th),M3 (3rd) andM2 (2nd):
Use these positions for hill climbing or
engine braking on downhill grades.
M1 (1st):
Use this position when climbing steep
hills slowly or driving slowly through deep
snow, or for maximum engine braking on
steep downhill grades.
. Remember not to drive at high speeds
for extended periods of time in lower
than 7th gear. This reduces fuel econ-
omy.
. Moving the shift lever rapidly to the
same side twice will shift the ranges in
succession.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission may not shift to the se-
lected gear or may automatically shift to the other gear. This helps
maintain driving performance and
reduces the chance of vehicle da-
mage or loss of control.
. When the transmission does not
shift to the selected gear, the Auto-
matic Transmission (AT) position in-
dicator light (in the vehicle
information display) will blink and
the buzzer will sound.
. In the manual shift mode, the trans-
mission automatically shifts down
to 1st gear before the vehicle comes
to a stop. When accelerating again, it
is necessary to shift up to the
desired range.
Accelerator downshift — In D (Drive)
position —
For passing or hill climbing, fully depress
the accelerator pedal to the floor. This
shifts the transmission down into the
lower gear, depending on the vehicle
speed.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, note
that the transmission will be locked in any
of the forward gears according to the
condition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme
conditions, such as excessive wheel spinning and subsequent hard braking,
the fail-safe system may be activated.
This will occur even if all electrical
circuits are functioning properly. In this
case, push the switch to the OFF posi-
tion and wait for 3 seconds. Then push
the ignition switch back to the ON
position. The vehicle should return to
its normal operating condition. If it does
not return to its normal operating con-
dition, have the transmission checked
and repaired, if necessary. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.

The LDW system will operate when the
vehicle is driven at speeds of approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and above, and
the lane markings are clearly visible on
the road.
The LDW system monitors the lane mar-
kers on the traveling lane using the
camera unit
located above the inside
mirror.
The LDW system warns the driver that the
vehicle is beginning to leave the driving
lane with an indicator and a steering
wheel vibration. (See “LDW system opera-
tion” (P.5-27).)WAF0730X

HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE LDW
SYSTEM
Perform the following steps to enable or
disable the LDW system.
1. Push the
button until “Set-
tings” appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display and then push the

button. Use the OK to select “Driver
Assistance”. Then push the OK.
2. Select “Lane” and push the OK.
3. Select “Warning (LDW)” and push the OK.
The warning systems switch
is used to
turn on and off the LDW system when it is
activated on the vehicle information dis-
play. When the warning systems switch
is turned off, the warning systems ON
indicator lighton the switch is off.
The warning systems switch
will turn
on and off the LDW and BSW systems at
the same time.
NOTE:
If you disable the LDW system, the
system will remain disabled the next
time you start the vehicle’s engine.
LDW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the LDW system. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions
for proper use of the LDW system
could result in serious injury or
death. .
The system will not operate at
speeds below approximately 37
MPH (60 km/h) or if it cannot
detect lane markers.
. Do not use the LDW system under
the following conditions as it may
not function properly:
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, etc.).
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
— When driving on winding or uneven roads.
— When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example,
tire wear, low tire pressure,
installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts
or suspension parts. — When towing a trailer or other
vehicle.
. The system may not function
properly under the following con-
ditions:
— On roads where there are
multiple parallel lane markers;
lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; or
lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road re-
pairs. (The LDW system could
detect these items as lane
markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.

The I-LI system must be turned on with
the dynamic driver assistance switch on
the steering wheel, every time the ignition
is placed in the ON position.
The I-LI system will operate when the
vehicle is driven at speeds of approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and above, and
only when the lane markings are clearly
visible on the road. The I-LI system warns
the driver when the vehicle has left the
center of the traveling lane with an
indicator and steering wheel vibration.
The system helps assist the driver to
return the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane by applying the brakes to
the left or right wheels individually (for a
short period of time).The I-LI system monitors the lane mar-
kers on the traveling lane using the
camera unit
located above the inside
mirror.

I-LI SYSTEM OPERATION
The I-LI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and when the
lane markings are clear. When the vehicle
approaches either the left or the right
side of the traveling lane, steering wheel
will vibrate and the I-LI indicator (orange)on the vehicle information display will
blink to alert the driver. Then, the I-LI
system will automatically apply the
brakes for a short period of time to help
assist the driver to return the vehicle to
the center of the traveling lane.
To turn on the I-LI system, push the
dynamic driver assistance switch on the
steering wheel after starting the engine.
The I-LI ON indicator on the vehicle
information display will illuminate. Push
the dynamic driver assistance switch
again to turn off the I-LI system. The I-LI
ON indicator will turn off.
