PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE

CONTROL

● If the cruise control system malfunctions, it

cancels automatically. The SET indicator

light in the instrument panel then blinks to

warn the driver.

● If the SET indicator light blinks, turn the

cruise control main switch off and have the

system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

● The SET indicator light may blink when the

cruise control main switch is turned ON

while pushing the ACCEL/RES, COAST/

SET, or CANCEL switch (located on the

steering wheel). To properly set the cruise

control system, use the following proce-

dures.

WARNING

Do not use the cruise control when driving

under the following conditions:
● When it is not possible to keep the

vehicle at a set speed.

● In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in

speed.

● On winding or hilly roads.
● On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.).
● In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle

control and result in an accident.

CAUTION

On manual transmission models, do not

shift into N (Neutral) without depressing

the clutch pedal when the cruise control is

set. Should this occur, depress the clutch

pedal and turn the main switch off imme-

diately. Failure to do so may cause engine

damage.

CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS

The cruise control allows driving at a speed be-

tween 25 - 89 MPH (40 - 144 km/h) without

keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the main

switch. The CRUISE indicator light in the instru-

ment panel comes on.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to

the desired speed, push the COAST/SET switch

and release it. The SET indicator light in the

instrument panel comes on. Take your foot off the

accelerator pedal. Your vehicle maintains the set

speed.

● To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-

celerator pedal. When you release the

pedal, the vehicle returns to the previously

set speed.
