2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER Owners Manual

CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering wheel,
after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged, may prevent the steering wheel
position from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner: Both
the tilt and telescopic steering operation must be
reset after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged in order to prevent the tilt and telescopic
operation from locking in one position. When the
battery has been recharged or replaced, perform
the following:
● For tilt operation: Adjust the switch
1so
the steering wheel moves to the highest
position
2that can be reached.
● For telescopic operation: Adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to the most
forward and backward position
3that can
be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range of
the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic function.
Entry/Exit function
The automatic drive positioner system will make
the steering wheel move up automatically when
the driver’s door is opened and the ignition
switch is in the LOCK position. This lets the driver
get into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position when
the driver’s door is closed and the ignition switch
is pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Automatic
drive positioner” in this section.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-33

AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE
REARVIEW MIRROR (if so equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it automati-
cally dims during night time conditions and ac-
cording to the intensity of the headlights of the
vehicle following you. The automatic anti-glare
feature is activated when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
The indicator light will illuminate when the auto-
matic anti-glare feature is operating.
NOTE:
Do not hang any objects over the sensors
1or apply glass cleaner to the sensors.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensors, resulting in improper operation.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS
The outside mirror remote control will operate
only when the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON
position.
Move the small switch

mirror. Adjust each mirror to the desired position
using the large switch

You could lose control of your vehicle
and cause an accident.
Manual folding outside mirrors
Pull the outside mirror toward the door to fold it.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
The reverse tilt-down feature will turn both out-
side mirror surfaces downward to provide better
rear visibility close to the vehicle when the mirror
control switch is in either the L or R position.
The mirrors automatically return to their original
position when you shift out of R (Reverse) .
LPD2083LPD2112
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-35

The outside mirror surfaces will return to their
original position when one of the following con-
ditions has occurred:● The shift lever is moved to any position other
than R (Reverse) .
● The outside mirror control switch is set to the
neutral or center position.
● The ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in the
Center position, the mirror surface will NOT
turn downward when the shift lever is
moved to R (Reverse) .
For additional information, refer to “Automatic
drive positioner” in this section.
Heated mirrors (if so equipped)
Some outside mirrors can be heated to defrost,
defog, or de-ice for improved visibility. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Rear window and
outside mirror (if so equipped) defroster switch”
in the “Instruments and controls” section of this
manual. The automatic drive positioner system has two
features:
● Memory storage function
● Entry/exit function
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering column
(if so equipped) , and outside mirrors can be stored
in the automatic drive positioner memory. Follow
these procedures to use the memory system.
1. Place the ignition in the ON or ACC position
(the vehicle should be stopped while setting
the memory) .
2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column (if so equipped) , and outside mirrors to the
desired positions by manually operating
each adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Seats” in the “Safety—

3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
4. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come ON and stay ON for ap-
proximately 5 seconds.
5. The chime will sound if the memory has been stored.
NOTE:
If a NEW memory position is stored in the
same memory switch, the previous memory
position will be overwritten by the new
stored position.
Confirming memory storage
Push the SET switch. ● If a memory position has not been stored in
the switch (1 or 2) the indicator light for the
respective switch will come ON for approxi-
mately 0.5 seconds.
● If a memory position has been stored in the
switch (1 or 2) then the indicator light for the
respective switch will stay ON for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
Linking a key fob to a stored memory
position
Each key fob can be linked to a stored memory
position (memory switch 1 or 2) with the follow-
ing procedure.
1. Follow steps 1-3 in the “Memory Storage Function” section for storing the memory
position.
2. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come ON. While the indicator
light is ON for 5 seconds, press the
button on the key fob. The indicator light of
the linked memory switch will blink. After the
indicator light goes off, the key fob is linked
to that memory setting.
Once it is linked, when ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position, pressing the
button on
the key fob will move the driver’s seat, steering
wheel and outside mirrors to the linked memory
switch position.
NOTE:
If a NEW memory position is stored in the
linked memory switch, then the key fob will
link the NEW position and overwrites the
previous position.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
and automatic operation steering column will au-
tomatically move when the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to get into
and out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up:
● When the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition switch placed in the OFF position.
● When the ignition switch is turned from
ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return to
the previous position: ● When the ignition switch is turned into ACC
or ON while the shift lever is in the P (Park)
position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or can-
celed through the Vehicle Settings in the vehicle
information display by performing the following: ● Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.
● Switch the Exit Steering UP from ON to
OFF.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-37

Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
opens, the stored memory positions will be lost
and some of the functions will be restricted:1. Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function should now work properly.
SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION

linked to the Intelligent Key and the memorized
settings can be available for each Intelligent Key. ● Climate control system
● Navigation system (if so equipped)
● Audio system
To use the memory function, set the climate,
navigation and audio systems to the driver’s pre-
ferred settings. Lock the doors with the Intelligent
Key. Each Intelligent Key may be set with the
