Video tutorial

In this video, see how to disconnect the battery without losing any settings if you need to leave the vehicle unused for a while, using the storage system on the Nissan Qashqai. The YouTuber also shows how to recover some of these functions if you decide to disconnect the battery or if this issue arises unexpectedly, such as if the battery fails and you need to reset certain functions.

Let’s see how to leave it in standby, which is very useful if you have fitted an alarm, allowing it to remain active. Go to the left side of the dashboard, near the driver's door, where the fuse box is located.

Remove the cover and take out the central fuse, the large white one in the middle: this is the storage fuse. It does not come out completely; it only clicks outward.

Upon your return, simply push it back in to restore full functionality without losing anything.
