If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the Fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical cir-
cuits are functioning properly. In this case, turn
the ignition switch “OFF” and wait for 10 sec-
onds. Then turn the key back to the ON position.
The vehicle should return to its normal operating
condition. If it does not return to its normal oper-
ating condition have your NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop check the transmission and have
the transmission repaired by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop, if necessary.
WARNING
When the fail safe operation occurs, the vehicle
speed may be lower than other traffic, which
could increase the chance of a collision. Be es-
pecially careful when driving. If necessary, drive
to the side of the road at a safe place and away
from traffic, to allow the transmission to return to
normal operation, or have the transmission re-
paired by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop,
if necessary.
The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent un-
necessary fuel consumption, exhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
•
When you stop the vehicle with the brake pedal
depressed (XTRONIC transmission) or with the
shift lever in N (Neutral) and clutch pedal re-
leased (MT), the engine is turned off automati-
cally.
•
When you release the brake pedal (XTRONIC
transmission) or push the clutch pedal (MT), the
engine is automatically turned on.
CAUTION
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition turned OFF. Lock the ve-
hicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF will shut
down all electrical systems. Failure to do this may
result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System has stopped the engine and
will automatically restart the engine. The Stop/Start
symbol is shown in the vehicle information display.
NOTE
The Stop/Start System will not activate under
the following conditions:
•
When the engine is kept idling without any driv-
ing after the engine is turned on.
•
When the engine coolant temperature is low.
•
When the battery capacity is low.
•
When the battery temperature is low or extremely
high.
•
When the vehicle is moved.
•
When the vacuum in the brake servo decreases.
•
When the engine bonnet is opened with the en-
gine running.
