An in- correct cap can result in a serious It malfunction and possible injury. could also cause the malfunc- tion indicator light to come on.
쐌 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.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone layer. How- ever, special charging equipment and lubricants are required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubri- cants will cause severe damage to your air conditioning system. See “Capacities and rec- ommended fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Technical and consumer information” section for air con- ditioning system refrigerant and lubricant recom- mendations.
A NISSAN dealer will be able to service your environmentally friendly air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains re- frigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air conditioner ser- vice should be done only by an experi- enced technician with proper equip- ment.

Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON and push the power on switch to turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio with the engine not running, the key should be turned to the ACC position. Radio reception is affected by station signal strength, distance from radio transmitter, build- ings, bridges, mountains and other external in- fluences. Intermittent changes in reception qual- ity normally are caused by these external influences. Using a cellular phone in or near the ve- hicle may influence radio reception quality. Radio reception Your radio system is equipped with state-of-the- art electronic circuits to enhance radio recep- tion. These circuits are designed to extend re- ception range, and to enhance the quality of that reception. However there are some general characteristics of FM, AM and satellite radio signals that can affect radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even when the finest equipment is used. These characteristics are completely normal in a given reception area, and do not indicate any malfunc- tion in your radio system. Remember that a moving vehicle is not the ideal place to listen to a radio. Because of the move- ment, reception conditions will constantly
change. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and interference from other vehicles can work against ideal reception. Described below are some of the factors that can affect your radio reception.
SAA0306
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30
miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
(single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External
influences may sometimes
interfere with FM station reception even if the FM
station is within 25 miles (40 km). The strength
of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM signals
follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the
same characteristics as light. For example they
will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from

a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade and/or drift.
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights. SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION When the satellite radio is first installed or the battery has been replaced, the satellite radio may not work properly. This is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10 minutes with satellite radio ON for satellite radio to receive all of the neces- sary data. The satellite radio mode will be skipped or “NO SAT” will be displayed unless the optional sat- ellite receiver and antenna are installed, and an XM or SIRIUSTM satellite radio service sub- scription is active.
Satellite radio performance may be effected if cargo carried on the roof rack blocks the satellite radio signal. If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite radio antenna. AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS Cassette player
Static and flutter: During signal interference from buildings, large hills or due to antenna position, usually in conjunction with increased distance from the station transmitter, static or flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the treble control counterclockwise to reduce treble response. Multipath reception: Because of the reflective characteristics of FM signals, direct and re- flected signals reach the receiver at the same time. The signals may cancel each other, result- ing in momentary flutter or loss of sound. AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low frequency, can bend around objects and skip along the ground. In addition, the signals can be bounced off the ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of these characteristics, AM signals are also sub- ject to interference as they travel from transmitter to receiver. Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing through freeway underpasses or in areas with many tall buildings. It can also occur for several seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in areas where no obstacles exist. Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical 4-28 Display screen, heater, air conditioner and audio systems

쐌 To maintain good quality
sound, NISSAN recommends using cassette tapes of 60 minutes or shorter in length. 쐌 Cassette tapes should be removed from the player when not in use. Store cas- settes in their protective cases and away from direct sunlight, heat, dust, moisture and magnetic sources.
쐌 Direct sunlight can cause the cassette to become deformed. The use of deformed cassettes may cause the cassette to jam in the player.
쐌 Do not use cassettes with labels which are peeling and loose. If used, the label could jam in the player.
쐌 If a cassette has loose tape, insert a pencil through one of the cassette hubs and rewind the tape firmly around the hubs. Loose tape may cause tape jam- ming and wavering sound quality.
쐌 Over a period of time, the playback head, capstan and pinch roller may col- lect a tape coating residue as the tape is played. This residue accumulation can cause weak or wavering sound, and

should be removed periodically with a head cleaning tape. If the residue is not removed periodically, the player may need to be disassembled for cleaning.
