LUGGAGE HOOKS
When securing items using luggage hooks lo-
cated on the back of the seat or side finisher do
not apply a load over more than 6.5 lbs (29 N) to
a single hook.
The luggage hooks that are located on the floor
should have loads less than 110 lbs (490 N) to a
single hook.
The luggage hooks can be used to secure cargo
with ropes or other types of straps.
WARNING
●Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or col-
lision, unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.
● Use suitable ropes and hooks to secure
cargo.
● Never allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage area. It is extremely dangerous to
ride in a cargo area inside of a vehicle.
In a collision, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed.
● Do not allow people to ride in any area
of your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
● The child restraint top tether strap may
be damaged by contact with items in
the cargo area. Secure any items in the
cargo area. Your child could be seri-
ously injured or killed in a collision if
the top tether strap is damaged.
● Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.

CARGO AREA STORAGE BIN (if so
equipped)
WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with 3 row
seating, do not attempt to install/place a
spare tire in the cargo area storage com-
partment. Doing so may result in personal
injury or death.
To access the floor storage area, pull up on the
handle to lift the luggage board.
ROOF RACK (if so equipped)
Genuine NISSAN accessory cross bars are avail-
able through your NISSAN dealer. Contact an
NISSAN dealer for crossbar or other equipment
information.
Always distribute the luggage evenly on the cross
bars. Do not load more than 150 lb (68 kg) on the
cross bars. Observe the maximum load limit
shown on the cross bars or roof carriers when
you attach them on the roof cross bars. Contact
an NISSAN dealer for crossbar or other equip-
ment information. Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails. Cross bars must be installed before apply-
ing load/cargo/luggage to the roof of the vehicle.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or its
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front and
rear) . The GVWR and GAWR are located on the
F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.M.S.S. certification label (lo-
cated on the driver’s door pillar) . For additional
information regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer
to “Vehicle loading information” in the “Technical
and customer information” section of this manual.
WARNING
●
Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying
capacity, especially if the significant
portion of that load is carried on the
cross bars.
● Heavy loading of the cross bars has the
potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
● Roof rack cross bars should be evenly
distributed.
● Do not exceed maximum roof rack cross
bars load.

●Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause personal
injury.
CAUTION
Always install the cross bars onto the roof
side rails before loading cargo of any kind.
Loading cargo directly onto the roof side
rails or the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
DIVIDE-N-HIDE® ADJUSTABLE
FLOOR (if so equipped)
WARNING
Do not put objects heavier than 165 lbs
(75 kg) on the Divide-N-Hide® while in the
mid position. In the upper position, ob-
jects should not weigh more than 30 lbs
(14 kg) .
There are multiple positions for the adjust-
able floor. The upper position allows for
additional storage below the adjustable
floor. To move the adjustable floor from the
lower position to the upper position:
1. Use the handle to lift the adjustable floor.
2. Move the adjustable floor to the upper guide track and ensure it is secure in place.

POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
●Make sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc. inside the vehicle while
it is in motion and before closing the
windows. Use the window lock switch to
prevent unexpected use of the power
windows.
● Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls and become
trapped in a window. Unattended chil-
dren could become involved in serious
accidents.
● Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals. The power windows operate when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position, or for a
period of time after the ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position. If the driver’s or passenger’s
door is opened during this period of time, the
power to the windows is canceled.
