ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver
differently from an ordinary passenger
car because it has a higher center of
gravity for off-road use. As with other
vehicles with features of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correctly
may result in loss of control or an
accident. Be sure to read “On-pave-
ment and off-road driving precau-
tions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover”
and “Driving safety precautions” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section of this
manual.

CLE
This vehicle should not be modified.

mance, safety or durability, and may
even violate governmental regula-
tions. In addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from
modification will not be covered under
the NISSAN warranties.
WARNING
Installing an aftermarket On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) plug-in device that
uses the port during normal driving,
for example remote insurance com-
pany monitoring, remote vehicle di-
agnostics, telematics or engine
reprogramming, may cause interfer-
ence or damage to vehicle systems.
We do not recommend or endorse
the use of any aftermarket OBD
plug-in devices, unless specifically

warranty may not cover damage
caused by any aftermarket plug-in
device.
