running, or while driving, it may indicate
that the AT is not functioning properly and
may need servicing. Have the system
checked, and if necessary, repaired
promptly. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Service AT
This transmission has a high fluid tem-
perature protection mode. If the fluid tem-
perature becomes too high (for example,
climbing steep grades in high tempera-tures with heavy loads, such as when tow-
ing a trailer), engine power and, under
some conditions, vehicle speed will be
decreased automatically to reduce the
chance of transmission damage. Vehicle
speed can be controlled with the accelera-
tor pedal, but the engine and vehicle speed
may be reduced.
WARNING
When the high fluid temperature pro-
tection mode operation occurs, vehicle
speed may be gradually reduced. The
reduced speed may be lower than
other traffic, which could increase the
chance of a collision. Be especially
careful when driving. If necessary, pull
to the side of the road at a safe place
and allow the transmission to return to
normal operation; or have it repaired if
necessary.
Blind Spot Warning (BSW)/
Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) indicator
This indicator appears when the BSW and

This indicator shows the cruise control sys-
tem status.
For additional information, see “Cruise con-
trol” (P. 5-50).

This message may appear when the Intel-
ligent Cruise Control (ICC) system is en-
gaged. Under the following conditions, the
ICC system is automatically cancelled:
• When the VDC operates.
• When a wheel slips.
• When the VDC system is turned off.
The above system cannot be used in some
situations (VDC operates, wheel slips, and
VDC system is off ).
Driver Attention Alert —
Malfunction
This warning appears when the Intelligent
Driver Alertness (I-DA) system is not func-
tioning properly. For additional information,
see “Intelligent Driver Alertness (I-DA)”

The indicator light on the switch will illumi-
nate when the systems are turned on.
If the indicator light flashes when the RSS,
MOD, RAB, or RCTA systems are not turned
off, it may indicate a malfunction in one or
more of these systems (if so equipped).
The RSS, MOD, RAB, or RCTA systems will be
turned on automatically under the follow-
ing conditions:
• When the ignition switch is switched fromthe OFF position to the ON position.
• When the shif t lever is shif ted into the R (Reverse) position.
The automatic turning on function can be
turned on and off for these systems in the
vehicle information display. For additional
information, see “Settings” (P. 2-26).

tection (MOD)” (P. 4-24). Tow mode should be used when pulling a
heavy trailer or hauling a heavy load. Driv-
ing the vehicle in the tow mode with no
trailer/load or light trailer/light load will
not cause any damage. However, fuel
economy may be reduced, and the

WARNING
• Do not use the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards
became effective for opener models
manufactured af ter April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a clos-
ing garage door and then automati-
cally stop and reverse does not meet
current federal safety standards. Us-
ing a garage door opener without
these features increases the risk of
serious injury or death.
•
During the programming procedure
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 Transceiver. Do
not breathe exhaust gases; they con-
tain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dan-
gerous. It can cause unconscious-
ness or death.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
The following steps show generic instruc-
tions on how to program a Homelink® but-
ton. 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 bat-
tery be placed in the hand-held trans-
mitter of the device being programmed
to Homelink® for quicker programming
and accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
• Replace the hand-held transmitter bat-teries with new batteries.
• Position the hand-held transmitter with its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink® button.
• Press and hold both the HomeLink® but- ton and hand-held transmitter button in
each step without interruption.
• Position the hand-held transmitter 2 to 8 cm (1 to 3 in) away from the HomeLink®
button. Hold the transmitter in that posi-
tion for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink® is
not programmed within that time, try
holding the transmitter in another posi-
tion – for example, 15 to 20 cm (6 to 12 in)
away, keeping the HomeLink® button in
view at all times.
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.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from three buttons.
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. How-
ever, individual buttons can be repro-
grammed. For additional information, see
“Reprogramming a single HomeLink® but-
ton” (P. 2-84).
To clear all programming
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink® buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash in green, in approximately 10 sec-
onds. Do not hold for longer than 20
seconds.
2. Release both buttons.
HomeLink® is now in the programming
mode and can be programmed at any time
beginning with “Programming HomeLink®” -
Step 1.
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HOMELINK® BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink® button, com-
plete the following:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button. DO NOT release the button. 2. The indicator light will illuminate in
green, and af ter 20 seconds it will begin
to flash in orange.
3. Release the HomeLink® button and pro- ceed with “ Programming HomeLink®” —
Step 3.
For questions or comments, contact
HomeLink® at: www.homelink.com/nissan
or 1–800–355–3515.
The HomeLink® button has now been re-
programmed. The new device can be acti-
vated by pressing the HomeLink® button
that was just programmed. This procedure
will not affect any other programmed
HomeLink® buttons.
If a new device is not programmed to the
HomeLink® button, it will revert to the pre-
viously stored programming.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN
If your vehicle is stolen, you should change
the codes of any non-rolling code device
that has been programmed into HomeLink®.
Consult the Owner's Manual of each device
or call the manufacturer or dealer of those
devices for additional information.
