Auto-reverse function
The auto-reverse function can be acti-
vated when a window is closed by auto-
matic operation.
Depending on the environment or driv-
ing conditions, the auto-reverse func-
tion may be activated if an impact or
load similar to something being caught
in the window occurs.
WARNING
There are some small distances imme-
diately before the closed position which
cannot be detected. Make sure that all
passengers have their hands, etc., in-
side the vehicle before closing the
window.
If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected, re-
placed, or jump started, the power window
auto-reverse function may not operate
properly. Have the power window auto-
reverse system re-initialized. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
If the control unit detects something
caught in a window equipped with auto-
matic operation as it is closing, the window
will be immediately lowered. The moonroof will only operate when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
The moonroof is operational for a period of
time, even if the ignition switch is placed in
the ACC (if so equipped) or OFF position. If
the driver’s door or the front passenger’s
door is opened during this period of time,
the power to the moonroof is canceled.
When operating the power moonroof or
panoramic sunshade, the switch need not
be held continuously. To stop the moon-
roof or sunshade at any point while it is
opening or closing, slide the switch mo-
mentarily.
Sliding the moonroof
To fully open the moonroof, slide the switch
toward the OPEN
1position to the second
detent and release it. If the switch is slid to
the first detent and released while the sun-
shade is closed only the sunshade will
open.
To fully close the moonroof, slide the switch
toward the CLOSE
2position to the sec-
ond detent and release it. If the switch is
slid to the first detent and released, the
moonroof will close but the sunshade will
remain open.
Tilting the moonroof
To tilt the moonroof up, push and release
the tilt switch

When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the inside or outside door
handles. The doors must be unlocked to
open the doors.
WARNING
∙ Always have the doors locked whiledriving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help
keep out intruders.
∙ Before opening any door, always look for and avoid oncoming traffic. ∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, including
entrapment in windows and/or inad-
vertent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require the
assistance of others and/or pets un-
attended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
and/or pets.

and transmitting radio waves. The Intelli-
gent Key system transmits weak radio
waves from various distances. Environ-
mental conditions may interfere with the
operation of the Intelligent Key system un-
der the following operating conditions: ∙ When operating near a location where strong radio waves are transmitted,
such as a TV tower, power station and
broadcasting station.
∙ When in possession of wireless equip- ment, such as a cellular telephone,
transceiver or a CB radio.
∙ When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials.

To close, lower and push the lif tgate down
securely.
Auto Power Lif tgate System Battery
Power Saving Mode:
The vehicle goes into power saving mode
when the lif tgate is open for a long time
(approximately 12 hours). This is to prevent
deterioration of the battery. The power
saving mode automatically cuts the power
supply of the power lif tgate door.
When the power to the lif tgate is cut off, the
manual mode must be performed. Af ter
the manual mode is performed, the power
lif tgate function is restored.
NOTE:
When a battery voltage is lower than ap-
proximately 11V, the power lif tgate may
not operate af ter automatic return.
MOTION-ACTIVATED LIFTGATE (if
so equipped)
The lif tgate can be operated using a quick
kicking motion under the center of the rear
bumper.
To operate, the Intelligent Key must be
within 31.5 in (80 cm) of the lif tgate.NOTE:
Tow hitches are available as an acces-
sory for this vehicle. If a tow hitch is in-
stalled, the lif tgate electronic control
unit (ECU) needs to be replaced with an
ECU programmed with towing logic for
the Motion-Activated Lif tgate to func-
tion properly.
Proper operation technique
∙ While at the rear of the vehicle, begin
making a quick forward kicking motion.
∙ Raise your foot straight under the cen- ter of the rear bumper then immedi-
ately return your foot to the ground in a
continuous motion.
∙ The kicking motion should be straight, smooth and consistent.
