cause you to lose control of your vehicle. As with any vehicle, a loss of control could result in a collision with other vehicles or objects, or cause the vehicle to rollover, particularly if the loss of control causes the vehicle to slide sideways. Be attentive at all times, and avoid driving when tired. Never drive when under the influence of alcohol or drugs (including prescription or over-the-counter drugs which may cause drowsiness). Always wear your seat belt as outlined in the 1. Safety Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system section and also instruct your passengers to do so. Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an unbelted or improperly belted person is significantly more likely to be injured or killed than a person properly wearing a seat belt.
AVOIDING COLLISION AND ROLLOVER
Do not place metalized film or any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows. This may cause poor reception of the signals from the tire pressure sensors, and the TPMS will not function properly.
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe and prudent manner may result in loss of control or an accident. Be alert and drive defensively at all times. Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive speed, high speed cornering, or sudden steering maneuvers, because these driving practices could

reduces coordination, delays reaction time and impairs judgement. Driving after drinking alcohol increases the likelihood of being involved in an accident injuring yourself and others. Additionally, if you are injured in an accident, alcohol can increase the severity of the injury. NISSAN is committed to safe driving. You must not drive under the influence of alcohol. Every year thousands of people are injured or killed in alcohol related accidents. Although the local laws vary on what is considered to be legally intoxicated, the fact is that alcohol affects all people differently and most people underestimate the effects of alcohol. Remember, drinking and driving dont mix! And that is true for drugs, too (over the counter, prescription, and illegal drugs). Dont drive if your ability to operate your vehicle is impaired by alcohol, drugs, or some other physical condition. 1. Move the selector lever into the P (Park) position. 2. Turn the ignition key slightly toward the ON direction. 3. Turn the key to the LOCK position. 4. Remove the key. If the key is removed from the ignition switch, the selector lever cannot be moved from P (Park) position. The selector lever can be moved if the ignition switch is in the ON position and the foot brake pedal is depressed.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION Shifting
To change gears, or when upshifting or downshifting, fully depress the clutch pedal, shift into the appropriate gear then slowly and smoothly release the clutch. This vehicle is equipped with a short throw shifter manual transmission. To ensure smooth gear changes, fully depress the clutch pedal before operating the shift lever. If the clutch pedal is not fully depressed before the transmission is shifted, a gear noise may be heard. Transmission damage could occur.
Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads. This may cause a loss of control. Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear. This may cause a loss of control or engine damage.
Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal while driving. This may damage the clutch.
computer display. See Trip computer in the 2. Instruments and controls section for the display setting information. Use the up-shift indicator when driving as follows: If the maximum engine speed is desired, set the figure at 6,600 rpm. (The indicator starts flashing from about 6,100 rpm and comes on steady at 6,600 rpm.) If the maximum engine torque is desired, set the figure at 4,800 rpm. (The indicator starts flashing from about 4,300 rpm and comes on steady at 4,800 rpm.) If you want to break in your vehicle, use of the up-shift indicator with a rather low figure will help you to avoid the high engine speed. To make the up-shift indicator not come on, set the figure at above 7,600 rpm. There may be a slight difference between the timing of the up-shift indicator illumination and the tachometer indication.
Suggested up-shift speeds
Shown below are suggested vehicle speeds for shifting into a higher gear. These suggestions relate to fuel economy and vehicle performance. Actual up-shift speeds will vary according to road conditions, the weather and individual driving habits. For normal acceleration in low altitude areas [less than 4,000 ft (1,219 m)]: Gear change 1st to 2nd 2nd to 3rd 3rd to 4th 4th to 5th 5th to 6th MPH (km/h) 8 (13) 16 (26) 25 (40) 30 (50) 33 (53)

Up-shift indicator
The manual transmission up-shift indicator is located in the tachometer and shows the driver the timing to shift into a higher gear by illuminating. The use of the up-shift indicator will help you to upshift at a constant engine speed (rpm) from any gear. The up-shift indicator will start flashing when the engine speed is within about 500 rpm of the set figure while driving, and then illuminate after the engine speed reaches the set figure. The engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm) for upshifting can be set on the trip
For quick acceleration in low altitude areas or in high altitude areas [over 4,000 ft (1,219 m)]: Gear change 1st to 2nd 2nd to 3rd 3rd to 4th 4th to 5th 5th to 6th MPH (km/h) 15 (24) 25 (40) 40 (64) 45 (72) 50 (80)

The VDC system is designed to help improve driving stability but does not prevent accidents due to abrupt steering operation at high speeds or due to careless or dangerous driving techniques. Reduce vehicle speed and be especially careful when driving and cornering on slippery surfaces and always drive carefully. If engine related parts such as a muffler are not standard equipment or are extremely deteriorated, the VDC OFF indicator or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. Do not modify the vehicles suspension. If suspension parts such as shock absorbers, struts, springs, stabilizer bars and bushings are not NISSAN-approved or are extremely deteriorated the VDC system may not operate properly. This could adversely affect vehicle handling performance, and the VDC OFF indica-
tor or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. If brake related parts such as brake pads, rotors and calipers are not standard equipment or are extremely deteriorated, the VDC OFF indicator or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. When driving on extremely inclined surfaces such as higher banked corners, the VDC system may not operate properly and the VDC OFF indicator or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. Do not drive on these types of roads. When driving on an unstable surface such as a turntable, ferry, elevator or ramp, the VDC OFF indicator or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. This is not a malfunction. Restart the engine after driving onto a stable surface. If wheels or tires other than those recommended are used, the VDC sys-
tem may not operate properly and the VDC OFF indicator or SLIP indicator or both indicator lights may illuminate. The VDC system is not a substitute for winter tires or tire chains on a snow-covered road.

To prevent a door lock from freezing, apply deicer or glycerin to it through the key hole. If the lock becomes frozen, heat the key before inserting it into the key hole.

TIRE EQUIPMENT

1. SUMMER tires are of a tread design to provide superior performance on dry pavement. However, the performance of these tires will be substantially reduced in snowy and icy conditions. If you operate your vehicle on snowy or icy roads, NISSAN recommends the use of MUD & SNOW or ALL SEASON tires on all four wheels. Consult a NISSAN dealer for the tire type, size, speed rating and availability information. 2. For additional traction on icy roads, studded tires may be used. However, some provinces and states prohibit their use. Check local, state and provincial laws before installing studded tires. Skid and traction capabilities of studded snow tires, on wet or dry surfaces, may be poorer than that of non-studded snow tires. 3. Tire chains may be used.

Failure to follow these guidelines can result in severe transmission damage. Whenever flat towing your vehicle, always tow forward, never backward. DO NOT tow any automatic transmission vehicle with all four wheels on the ground (flat towing). Doing so WILL DAMAGE internal transmission parts due to lack of transmission lubrication. For emergency towing procedures, refer to Towing recommended by NISSAN in the 6. In case of emergency section of this manual.
9-22 Technical and consumer information
UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
To tow a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission, an appropriate vehicle dolly MUST be placed under the towed vehicles drive wheels. Always follow the dolly manufacturers recommendations when using their product. DOT (Department Of Transportation) Quality Grades: All passenger car tires must conform to federal safety requirements in addition to these grades. Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A crete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
Always tow with the manual transmission in Neutral. After towing 500 miles, start and idle the engine with the transmission in Neutral for two minutes. Failure to idle the engine after every 500 miles of towing may cause damage to internal transmission parts.

Treadwear

The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
