WARNING

•

Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused or mis-
handled. Always stop the engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks near the vehicle when
refueling.

•

Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically.

Continued

refueling

may cause fuel overflow, resulting in
fuel spray and possibly a fire.

•

Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the

Malfunc-

tion Indicator Light (MIL) to come on.

•

Never pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle.

•

Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:

–

Always place the container on the

ground when filling.

–

Do not use electronic devices

when filling.

–

Keep the pump nozzle in contact

with the container while you are

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Once step 4 is completed, every time the
ignition is switched from ON to OFF, the
memory positions of the driver’s seat and
outside mirror are linked to the Intelligent
Key.

Follow the same procedure if you want
to link the 2nd, 3rd or 4th Intelligent Key.

to turning the ignition from on to off,
the previously linked memory posi-
tions for the respective key will be
overwritten by new positions.

• Only have one Intelligent Key in the ve-

hicle when setting memory to the In-
telligent Key. If more than one Intelli-
gent Key is in the vehicle during this
process memory may not be saved
correctly.

Recalling Intelligent Key memory
positions

If the “Key-Linked Settings” are enabled in
the vehicle information display for that par-
ticular key, every time you enter the vehicle
the driver’s seat and outside mirrors will
automatically move to the driver’s last po-
sition of the respective Intelligent Key.

The key-linked memory positions can be
different from the positions stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2).

MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
(switch)

Use the following process to manually store
the two memory positions in the switch:

1. The vehicle should be stopped while set-

ting the memory.

2. Adjust the driver's seat and outside mirror

The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for ap-
proximately 5 seconds. The chime will
sound when the memory is stored.

push the memory switch (1 or 2). The driv-
er’s seat and outside mirror will move to
the positions stored to those buttons.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION

This system is designed so that the driver's
seat will automatically move when the shift
lever is in the P (Park) position. This allows
the driver to easily get in and out of the
driver’s seat.

The driver’s seat will slide backward:
• When the driver's door is opened and the

ignition switch is in the OFF position.

• When the ignition switch is turned from

ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.

The driver’s seat will return to the previous
position:
• When the ignition switch is turned to ACC

or ON while the shift lever is in the P (Park)
position.

The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through the “Vehicle Settings” in
the vehicle information display by perform-
ing the following:
• Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.

SYSTEM OPERATION

The memory seat system will not work or
will stop operating under the following
conditions:
• When the vehicle speed is above 4 mph (7

km/h).

• When any of the memory switches are

pushed while the memory seat system is
operating.

• When the switch for the driver’s seat and

steering column is pushed while the
memory seat system is operating.

• When the seat has already been moved

to the memorized position.

• When no seat position is stored in the

memory switch.

• When the shift lever is moved from P

(Park) to any other position.

The memory seat system can be adjusted
and canceled. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
