2018 NISSAN ROGUE HYBRID jump start

Auto-reverse function (if so
equipped)
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 12–volt battery is discon-
nected, replaced, or jump started, the
power window auto-reverse function may
not operate properly. If this occurs, please
contact the dealer to re-initialize the power
window auto-reverse system.
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 OFF position. If the driver’s door or the
front passenger’s door is opened during
this period of time, the power to the moon-
roof 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
3.
To tilt the moonroof down but keep the
sunshade open, push and release the tilt
switch

WARNING
∙ If the hybrid system stops operatingwhile driving, the power assist for the
brakes and steering will not work.
Braking and steering will be harder.
∙ If the hybrid system stops operating while driving, do not open any door
until the vehicle comes to a complete
stop. Opening a door will lock the
steering wheel. This may cause the
driver to lose control of the vehicle
and could result in serious vehicle
damage or personal injury.
The hybrid system may stop operating
while driving if the high-voltage battery be-
comes discharged, the 12-volt battery be-
comes discharged or the fuel tank is
empty. If the hybrid system stops operat-
ing while driving, perform the following: 1. Reduce your speed gradually. Pull to the side of the road to a safe area.
2. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
3. Set the push-button ignition switch at OFF, and try to start the hybrid system.
4. If the hybrid system will not start, refer to the “If the vehicle does not start” in
this section of the manual. Before attempting to jump start the ve-
hicle, make sure the fuel tank is not empty
and the correct starting procedure is fol-
lowed. For additional information, refer to
“Starting the NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid
System” in the “Starting and driving” section
of this manual. Do not drive the vehicle on
battery power only if the fuel tank is empty.
The Li-ion battery will become discharged
and the hybrid system will turn off.
CONFIRM BATTERY IS
DISCHARGED
Confirm the battery is discharged by push-
ing the ignition switch to the ON position.
Confirm the instrument cluster or head
lights come on at the normal brightness
levels or that other accessories such as the
audio system come on. Push the ignition
switch to turn the hybrid system on.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
12-volt battery might discharge:
∙ The instrument cluster and/or head- lights are not normal brightness.
∙ Audio accessories cannot be turned on.
∙ The hybrid system does not become READY to drive mode. ∙ The ignition switch cannot be placed in
the ON position.
Check the following if you notice any of the
above conditions: 1. Check that the 12-volt battery terminals are tight and clean. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “12-volt battery” in the
“Do-it-yourself ” section of this manual. If
the 12-volt battery terminals are loose,
it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
2. If the 12-volt battery terminals are tight and clean, try to jump start the vehicle.
For additional information, refer to
“Jump starting” in this section.
EMERGENCY START
When the hybrid system cannot be started,
the following procedure can be used if the
hybrid system and push-button ignition
switch function normally:
1. Put the transmission in P (Park) posi- tion.
2. Push the ignition switch to the ON po- sition.
3. Depress the brake pedal.
HYBRID SYSTEM STOPS OPERATING
WHILE DRIVING IF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START
In case of emergency6-11

4. Push and hold the ignition switch forabout 90 seconds. Even if the hybrid
system starts using this procedure, the
system may be malfunctioning. Do not
continue to use this emergency proce-
dure to start the system. Have the ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice.
If the hybrid system still does not start, it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Jump starting provides power to the
12–volt system to allow the electrical sys-
tems to operate. The electrical systems
must be operating to allow the Li-ion bat-
tery to be charged. Jump starting does not
charge the Li-ion battery.
To start the hybrid system with a booster
battery, the instructions and precautions
below must be followed.
WARNING
∙ The engine may start at any time
without warning when the ignition is
on and the hybrid system is in the
READY mode. When jump starting
keep your hands, clothing, hair and
tools away from fans, belts and any
other parts that can move to avoid
personal injury.
∙ If done incorrectly, jump starting can lead to a 12–volt battery explosion, re-
sulting in severe injury or death. It
could also damage your vehicle.
∙ Explosive hydrogen gas is always present in the vicinity of the battery.
Keep all sparks and flames away from
the battery. Make sure that the vent
tube is mounted. ∙ Do not allow battery fluid to come into
contact with eyes, skin, clothing or
painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a
corrosive sulfuric acid solution which
can cause severe burns. If the fluid
should come into contact with any-
thing, immediately flush the con-
tacted area with water.
∙ Keep 12–volt battery out of the reach of children.
∙ The booster battery must be rated at 12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.
∙ Whenever working on or near a bat- tery, always wear suitable eye protec-
tors (for example, goggles or indus-
trial safety spectacles) and remove
rings, metal bands, or any other jew-
elry. Do not lean over the battery
when jump starting.
∙ Do not attempt to jump start a frozen battery. It could explode and cause
serious injury.
∙ Your vehicle has an automatic engine cooling fan. It could come on at any
time. Keep hands and other objects
away from it.

If jump starting is necessary, refer to “Jump
starting” in the “In case of emergency” sec-
tion of this manual. If the hybrid system
does not start by jump starting, the battery
may have to be replaced. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
REPLACING SPARK PLUGS
Iridium-tipped spark plugs
It is not necessary to replace iridium-
tipped
Aspark plugs as frequently as con-
ventional type spark plugs because they
last much longer. Follow the maintenance
log shown in the “Maintenance and sched-
ules” section of this manual. Do not service
iridium-tipped spark plugs by cleaning or
regapping.
∙ Always replace spark plugs with rec-
ommended or equivalent ones.
