FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 95 (RON). If premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of 91 (RON) may be temporarily used, but only with the following precautions: Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline and fill up with unleaded premium gasoline as soon as possible. Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration. However, for maximum vehicle performance, the use of unleaded premium gasoline is recommended. CAUTION: Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will damage the three-way catalyst. the way you move Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. reserves the right to make any changes without notice concerning colors, equipment or specifications detailed in this brochure, or to discontinue individual models.

SAFETY SHIELD Nissan’s concept of “the vehicle that helps protect people.” In the area of safety technology, Nissan pursues innovation as part of its “Safety Shield” concept, an advanced, proactive approach to safety issues based on the idea that cars should help protect people. This approach provides various measures to help the driver and passengers better avoid dangers in ways that are optimized to each of a wide range of circumstances that the vehicle may be in, from “risk has not yet appeared” to “post-crash.” Helps the driver to maintain comfortable driving Even when risk has not appeared, Nissan technologies make it easier for the driver to maintain safe driving conditions. Some of these innovations reduce the driver’s burden, while others enhance visibility and awareness of the immediate surroundings at night and when parking, for example. 24 Helps the driver to recover from dangerous conditions to safe driving When a risk appears, warnings and automatic countermeasures help the driver avoid it. VDC Vehicle with VDC Vehicle without VDC Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) VDC automatically controls brake and engine output to enhance stability when sensors detect that the vehicle may slip sideways, due to steering, braking or accelerator pedal operation. Helps minimize the damage when a collision is unavoidable In cases when a crash cannot be avoided, additional Nissan technology helps reduce injuries and damage by activating the brakes, restraining passengers, and applying other measures. 25 Dual front, side and curtain SRS airbags Together with pretensioner front seatbelts, these Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) airbags help to reduce the risk of injury resulting from an impact. Bi-Xenon High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps Provide intense long-range illumination and feature headlamp washers to ensure optimum visibility in all weather conditions. LED high-mounted stop lamp Makes sure the car behind you knows when you’re braking. LED rear combination lamps Quick illumination gives following drivers more time to react. Rear fog lamp Provides extra illumination in haze, fog and other low-visibility conditions. ABS with EBD and BA The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps prevent skidding in emergency braking, while Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) contributes to safe driving by enhancing braking control to optimize braking performance with different loads. A Brake Assist (BA) system is also provided. Seeking a symbiosis of people, vehicles and nature Nissan’s environmental philosophy can be described as, “a symbiosis of people, vehicles and nature.” It is our ideal for a sustainable mobile society now and our goal for the future. We established the Nissan Green Program with specific objectives to realize the goal, and we are diligently making concerted efforts to reduce environmental impact at every stage of the vehicle life cycle and our corporate activities. Active head restraints Support the head by moving forward in the event of a collision. ENVIRONMENT Features and specifications are subject to change depending on market requirements.
