2017 NISSAN ARMADA Lift gate

WARNING
.Never install the rear bumper cover
while the engine is running. The
exhaust gas could heat the rear
bumper cover and this may cause a
fire.
. Never drive with the rear bumper
cover left in place. There is a risk
that the liftgate will not close cor-
rectly, and that carbon monoxide
may enter the cabin causing serious
injury or death.
CAUTION
.Failure to follow the instructions
below could result in damage to
the rear bumper cover.
— Do not close the liftgate with the
rear bumper cover installed.
— Do not strike or apply excessive force to the rear bumper cover.
— Keep the rear bumper cover away from heat or fire. — To clean the rear bumper cover,
use a soft cloth, dampened with
a mild solution of neutral deter-
gent. Never use benzine, thinner
or any similar chemical.
— Remove any solvent such as oil or gasoline spilled on the sur-
face of the rear bumper cover as
soon as possible.
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 win-
dow lock switch to prevent unex-
pected use of the power windows.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of
the vehicle and or its systems,
including entrapment in windows
or inadvertent door lock activation,
do not leave children, people who
require the assistance of others or
pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside
a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
The power windows operate when the ignition
switch is in the ON position or for about 45
seconds after the ignition switch is pushed to
the OFF position. If the driver’s or front
passenger’s door is opened during this period

The cargo light switch has three positions: ON
*1, center*2and OFF*3.
ON position
When the switch is in the ON position
*1, the
cargo light will illuminate.
Center position
When the switch is in the center position
*2,
the cargo light will illuminate when the liftgate is
opened.
OFF position
When the switch is in the OFF position
*3, the
cargo light will not illuminate. The HomeLink
ŠUniversal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLink
ŠUniversal Transceiver:
. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is dis-
connected, HomeLink
Šwill retain all pro-
gramming.
When the HomeLink
ŠUniversal Transcei-
ver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (Example: new vehicle purchases) .
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
ŠUniversal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, refer to “Pro-
gramming HomeLink
Š” (P.2-68) .
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLinkŠUniversal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by
federal safety standards. (These
standards became effective for
opener models manufactured after
April 1, 1982) . A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object in the
path of a closing garage door and
then automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.
. During the programming procedure
your garage door or security gate
will open and close (if the transmit-
ter is within range) . Make sure that
people or objects are clear of the
garage door, gate, etc. that you are
programming.
. Your vehicle’ s engine should be
turned off while programming the
HomeLink
ŠUniversal Transceiver.
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless car-
bon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is
dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.
