Some examples of dangerous riding positions are shown WARNING in the previous illustrations. ∙ When sitting in the rear seat, do not hold onto the seatback of the front seat. If the side air bag inflates, you may be seriously injured. Be espe- cially careful with children, who should always be properly restrained. Some examples of dangerous riding positions are shown in the illustrations. ∙ Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks. They may interfere with side air bag inflation.

5-22 Starting and driving 1. Side BSW/RCTA Indicator Light 2. BSW Indicator BSW SYSTEM OPERATION The BSW system operates above approxi- mately 20 mph (32 km/h). If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the detection zone, the side BSW/RCTA indica- tor light (1) illuminates. If the turn signal is then activated, the system chimes (twice) and the side BSW/RCTA indicator light flashes. The side BSW/RCTA indicator light continues to flash until the detected ve- hicle leaves the detection zone. The side BSW/RCTA indicator light illumi- nates for a few seconds when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. The brightness of the side BSW/RCTA indi- cator light is adjusted automatically de- pending on the brightness of the ambient light. If a vehicle comes into the detection zone after the driver activates the turn signal, then only the side BSW/RCTA indicator light flashes and no chime sounds. For addi- tional information, refer to “BSW driving situations” in this section. LSD3204 Starting and driving 5-23 HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE BSW SYSTEM Perform the following steps to enable or disable the BSW system. 1.

Select “Blind Spot” and press the OK button. 3. Select “Blind Spot Warning” and press the OK button to turn the system on or off.

NOTE: ∙ When enabling/disabling the system, the system will retain current set- tings even if the engine is restarted. ∙ When the BSW system is turned on, the BSW indicator (white) in the ve- hicle information display illuminates.

Side BSW/RCTA Indicator Light RCTA SYSTEM OPERATION The RCTA system can help alert the driver of an approaching vehicle when the driver is backing out of a parking space. When the shift position is in R (Reverse) and the vehicle speed is less than approxi- mately 5 mph (8 km/h), the RCTA system is operational. If the radar detects an approaching vehicle from either side, the system chimes (once) and the side BSW/RCTA indicator light flashes on the side the vehicle is approach- ing from.

LSD3206 5-32 Starting and driving LSD2216 LSD3090 The RCTA system uses radar sensors ᭺1 installed on both sides near the rear bum- per to detect an approaching vehicle. The radar sensors ᭺1 can detect an ap- proaching vehicle from up to approxi- mately 66 ft. (20 m) away.

Starting and driving 5-33 HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE RCTA SYSTEM Perform the following steps to enable or disable the RCTA system. 1.

The following tables show the standard maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric conditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent maintenance may be re- quired.

(5) Use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent with proper mixture ratio of 50% antifreeze and 50% demineralized or distilled water. Mixing any other type of coolant or the use of non-distilled water may reduce the life expectancy of the factory fill coolant. (6) Replace spark plug when the plug exceeds 1.35 mm (0.053 in) even if within specified periodic replacement mileage. (7) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increased, inspect valve clearance. *: Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by NISSAN for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perform such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and intervals are required.

NOTE: Maintenance items with “૽” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance under severe driving conditions”. (1) If using a car-top carrier or driving on rough or muddy roads, inspect CVT fluid deterioration every 60,000 miles (96,000 km), then change CVT fluid if necessary. And if the inspection is not performed, change (not just inspect) CVT fluid every 60,000 miles (96,000 km). It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer to perform this service.

Technical and consumer information 10-9 WHEN TRAVELING OR REGISTERING VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION IN ANOTHER COUNTRY

When planning to drive your NISSAN ve- hicle in another country, you should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for your vehicle's engine. Using fuel with an octane rating that is too low may cause engine damage. All gaso- line vehicles must be operated with un- leaded gasoline. Therefore, avoid taking your vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not available. When transferring the registration of your vehicle to another country, state, province or district, it may be necessary to modify the vehicle to meet local laws LTI2050 LTI2258 and regulations. VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER The laws and regulations for motor vehicle (VIN) PLATE (chassis number) emission control and safety standards vary according to the country, state, prov- The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) The vehicle identification number is lo- ince or district; therefore, vehicle specifica- plate is attached as shown.
