FUEL-FILLER DOOR
OPENING THE FUEL-FILLER DOOR
To open the fuel-filler door, push the upper right side of the fuel-filler door to release.
FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
- Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain conditions. You could be burned or seriously injured if it is misused or mishandled. 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 the proper operation of the fuel system and emission control system. An incorrect cap can result in a serious malfunction and possible injury. It could also cause the malfunction indicator light 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 filling it.
- Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
- If fuel is spilled on the vehicle’s body, flush it away with water to avoid paint damage.
- Insert the cap straight into the fuel-filler tube, then tighten it until the fuel-filler cap clicks. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap properly may cause the malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate. If the light illuminates because the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the cap and continue to drive the vehicle. The light should turn off after a few driving trips. If the light does not turn off after a few driving trips, have the vehicle inspected. It is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
- The Loose Fuel Cap warning will appear if the fuel-filler cap is not properly tightened. It may take a few driving trips for the message to be displayed. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap properly after the Loose Fuel Cap warning appears may cause the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate.
Turn the cap counterclockwise to remove. To tighten, turn the cap clockwise until a single click is heard.
To remove the fuel-filler cap:
- Turn the fuel-filler cap countershock-wise to remove it.
- Put the fuel-filler cap on the cap holder while refuelling.
To install the fuel-filler cap:
- Insert the fuel-filler cap straight into the fuel-filler tube.
- Turn the fuel-filler cap clockwise until a single click is heard.
Loose Fuel Cap warning
The Loose Fuel Cap warning appears on the vehicle information display when the fuel-filler cap is not tightened correctly after the vehicle has been refuelled. It may take a few driving trips for the warning to be displayed.
To turn off the warning, perform the following:
- Remove and install the fuel-filler caps as soon as possible.
- Tighten the fuel-filler cap until it clicks.
- Push the switch on the steering wheel to turn off the Loose Fuel Cap warning after tightening the fuel-filler cap.
TILT/TELESCOPIC STEERING
WARNING
- Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving. You could lose control of your vehicle and cause an accident.
- Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer to you than is necessary for proper steering operation and comfort. The driver’s airbag inflates with great force. If you are unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting sideways or out of position in any way, you are at greater risk of injury or death in a crash. You may also receive serious or fatal injuries from the airbag if you are up against it when it inflates. Always sit back against the seatback and as far away as practical from the steering wheel. Always use seat belts.
ELECTRIC OPERATION
Tilt or telescopic operation
Move the lever to adjust the steering wheel up or down, forward or rearward to the desired position.
Entry/Exit function operation (if so equipped):
The memory seat system will make the steering wheel move up automatically when the driver’s door is opened with the ignition switch in the LOCK position. This lets the driver get into and out of the seat more easily.
