3. Turn the
fan speed control dial to
the desired position. When theorposition is selected, the air condi-
tioner automatically turns on (however,
the indicator light will not illuminate). In
this position, the air conditioner cannot
be turned off. When the air flow control is
turned to any position other than

operating). and can be turned off using
the air conditioner button. This dehu-

windshield.

Operating tips
€ Keep the windows closed while the airconditioner is in operation.
€ Af ter parking in the sun, drive for 2 or 3 minutes with the windows open to vent
hot air from the passenger compart-
ment before closing the windows. This
allows the air conditioner to cool the inte-
rior more quickly.
€ The air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately 10 minutes
at least once a month. This helps pre-
vent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
• A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions
as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
• If the high temperature warning light
illuminates in red indicating en-
gine coolant temperature is over the
normal range, turn the air conditioner
off. For additional information, see “If
your vehicle overheats” (P. 6-12).

ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The engine has an engine protection mode
to reduce the chance of damage if the
coolant temperature becomes too high
(for example, when climbing steep grades
in high temperature with heavy loads, such
as when towing a trailer). When the engine
temperature reaches a certain level:
• The high temperature warning light willturn on.
• Engine power may be reduced.
• The air conditioning cooling function may be automatically turned off for a short
time (the blower will continue to operate).
Engine power and, under some conditions,
vehicle speed will decrease. Vehicle speed
can be controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the vehicle may not accelerate at
the desired speed. The transmission will
downshif t or upshif t as it reaches pre-
scribed shif t points. You can also shif t
manually.
As driving conditions change and engine
coolant temperature is reduced, vehicle
speed can be increased using the accel-
erator pedal, and air conditioning cooling
function will automatically be turned back
on. Move the vehicle off the road in a safe area
and allow the engine to cool if the following
occurs:
1. The engine coolant temperature is not
reduced.
2. The air conditioning cooling function does not turn back on.
3. The engine oil pressure low and high temperature warning light
illumi-
nates. This may indicate a malfunction.
If af ter checking the oil and coolant, the
remains on, do not continue to drive. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for servicing.
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may
also come ON. If onlyit remains on, you do
not need to have your vehicle towed, but
have it inspected soon. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice. For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P. 2-14).
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Starting and driving5-11

CAUTION
• Do not push start this vehicle. The
three-way catalyst may be
damaged.
• Continuously Variable Transmission
(CVT) models cannot be push-
started or tow-started. Attempting
to do so may cause transmission
damage.WARNING
• Do not continue to drive if your ve-
hicle overheats. Doing so could cause
engine damage or a vehicle fire.
• To avoid the danger of being scalded,
never remove the radiator or coolant
reservoir cap while the engine is still
hot. When the radiator or coolant res-
ervoir cap is removed, pressurized
hot water will spurt out, possibly
causing serious injury.
• Do not open the hood if steam is
coming out.
• Overheating can result in reduced
engine power and vehicle speed. The
reduced speed may be lower than
other traffic, which could increase
the chance of a collision. Be espe-
cially careful when driving. If the ve-
hicle cannot maintain a safe driving
speed, pull to the side of the road in a
safe area. Allow the engine to cool
and return to normal operation.
If your vehicle is overheating (indicated by a
red high temperature warning light
),
or if you feel a lack of engine power, detect
abnormal noise, etc., take the following
steps. 1. Move the vehicle safely off the road, ap-
ply the parking brake and move the shif t
lever to P (Park).
Do not stop the engine.
2. Turn off the air conditioner. Open all the windows, move the heater or air condi-
tioner temperature control to maximum
hot and fan control to high speed.
3. Get out of the vehicle. Look and listen for steam or coolant escaping from the ra-
diator before opening the hood. If steam
or coolant is escaping, turn off the en-
gine. Do not open the hood further until
no steam or coolant can be seen.
4. Open the engine hood.
