CLEANING INTERIOR

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the

following precautions:

Occasionally remove loose dust from the

interior trim, plastic parts and seats using a

vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush.Wipe

the vinyl and leather (if so equipped) sur-

faces with a clean, soft cloth dampened in

mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a

dry, soft cloth.

CAUTION

∙ Never use benzine, thinner or any

similar material.

∙

Use a water-based tire dressing. The

coating on the tire dissolves more easily

than with an oil-based tire dressing.

∙ Small dirt particles can be abrasive

and damaging to leather (if so

equipped) surfaces and should be re-

moved promptly. Do not use saddle

soap, car waxes, polishes, oils, clean-

ing fluids, solvents, detergents or

ammonia-based cleaners as they

may damage the leather’s natural

finish.

∙

Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help

prevent it from entering the tire

tread/grooves (where it would be diffi-

cult to remove).

Regular care and cleaning is required in

order to maintain the appearance of the

leather (if so equipped).

∙

Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry

towel. Make sure the tire dressing is

completely removed from the tire

tread/grooves.

Before using any fabric protector, read the

manufacturer’s recommendations. Some

fabric protectors contain chemicals that

may stain or bleach the seat material.

∙ Never use fabric protectors unless

recommended by the manufacturer.

Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom-

mended by the tire dressing manufac-

turer.

Use a cloth dampened only with water to

clean the meter and gauge lens.

∙ Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on

meter or gauge lens covers. It may

damage the lens cover.

WARNING

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot

steam cleaners) on the seat. This can

damage the seat or occupant classifi-

cation sensor. This can also affect the

operation of the air bag system and re-

sult in serious personal injury.

7-4 Appearance and care

AIR FRESHENERS

∙ Use only Genuine NISSAN floor mats,

or equivalent floor mats, that are spe-

cifically designed for use in your ve-

hicle model and model year.

Most air fresheners use a solvent that

could affect the vehicle interior. If you use

an air freshener, take the following precau-

tions:

∙ Properly position the mats in the

floorwell using the floor mat position-

ing hook. For additional information,

refer to "Floor mat installation" in this

section.

∙

Hanging-type air fresheners can cause

permanent discoloration when they

contact vehicle interior surfaces. Place

the air freshener in a location that al-

lows it to hang free and not contact an

interior surface.

∙ Make sure the floor mat does not in-

terfere with pedal operation.

∙

Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip

on the vents. These products can cause

immediate damage and discoloration

when spilled on interior surfaces.

∙ Periodically check the floor mats to

make sure they are properly installed.

WAI0006

∙ After cleaning the vehicle interior,

check the floor mats to make sure

they are properly installed.

FLOOR MATS (if so equipped)

Carefully read and follow the manufactur-

er’s instructions before using the air fresh-

eners.

WARNING

The use of Genuine NISSAN floor mats can

extend the life of your vehicle carpet and

make it easier to clean the interior. Mats

should be maintained with regular clean-

ing and replaced if they become exces-

sively worn.

To avoid potential pedal interference

that may result in a collision, injury or

death:

∙ NEVER place a floor mat on top of an-

other floor mat in the driver front po-

sition or install them upside down or

backwards.

Appearance and care 7-5

3. Make sure the floor mat does not inter-

fere with pedal operation. With the igni-

tion still in the OFF position, the shift

lever in the P (Park) position (automatic

transmission models) or the shift lever

in the N (Neutral) position (manual

transmission models) and with the

parking brake applied, fully apply and

release all pedals. The floor mat must

not interfere with pedal operation or

prevent the pedal from returning to its

normal position.

Floor mat installation

Your vehicle is equipped with floor mat po-

sitioning hook(s). The number and shape of

the floor mat positioning hooks for each

seating position varies depending on the

vehicle.

When installing Genuine NISSAN floor mats,

follow the installation instructions provided

with the mat and the following:

1. With the ignition in the OFF position, the

shift lever in P (Park) position (auto-

matic transmission models) or the shift

lever in the N (Neutral) position (manual

transmission models) and with the

parking brake fully applied, position the

floor mat in the floorwell so that the

floor mat grommet holes are aligned

with the hook(s).

It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN

dealer for details about installing the floor

mats in your vehicle.

LAI2047

Positioning hooks

The illustration shows the location of the

floor mat positioning hooks.

SEAT BELTS

2. Secure the grommet holes into the

hook(s) and ensure that the floor mat is

properly positioned.

The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping

them with a sponge dampened in a mild

soap solution. Allow the belts to dry com-

pletely in the shade before using them. For

additional information, refer to “Seat belt

maintenance” in the “Safety—Seats, seat

belts and supplemental restraint system”

section of this manual.
