Be sure to adjust the Intelligent Rear View

Mirror before driving. Switch the system

to the conventional rearview mirror mode

and be properly seated on the driver’s

seat. Then adjust the rearview mirror so

as to see the rear window properly.

Driving without adjusting the rearview

mirror may cause difficulty in watching

the display at Intelligent Rear View Mirror

mode (camera view mode) due to the

reflection from the surface of the mirror.

If the Intelligent Rear View Mirror mal-

functions, immediately switch the system

to the conventional rearview mirror

mode. Have the system checked by a

NISSAN dealer.

When strong light (for example, sunlight

or high beams from following vehicles)

enters the camera, a light beam or a

glaring light may appear on the display

screen of the Intelligent Rear View Mirror.

In that case, switch the system to the

conventional rearview mirror mode ap-

propriately.

If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the

exterior glass surface covering the cam-

era, the Intelligent Rear View Mirror may

not display objects clearly. Use of the rear

window wiper/washer may improve vis-

ibility, but if not, switch the Intelligent

Rear View Mirror to the conventional

rearview mirror mode until a time the

glass covering the camera can be

cleaned.
