2019 NISSAN ROGUE HYBRID CD player

1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Move the shif t lever to P (Park) or N(Neutral). P (Park) is recommended.
The NISSAN PURE DRIVE® Hybrid Sys-
tem is designed not to operate if the
shif t lever is in any of the driving po-
sitions.
3. Depress the brake pedal and push the ignition switch to start the hybrid sys-
tem. The READY to drive indicator will
illuminate on the meter.
When starting the hybrid system at
very low outside temperatures, the
READY to drive indicator light will
flash and it may take longer for the
READY to drive indicator light to illu-
minate. When the READY to drive in-
dicator light is flashing, it cannot be
shif ted out of P (Park).
NOTE:
Do not start the vehicle in the N (Neutral)
position (in cold conditions only).
The hybrid system may not start even
with the READY to drive indicator light
illuminated. Once the READY to drive in-
dicator light is illuminated you may be-
gin driving the vehicle. NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential 12-volt battery
discharge and potential no-start condi-
tions such as:
1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume 12-
volt battery power when the engine
is not running (phone chargers, GPS,
DVD players, etc.).
2. The vehicle is not driven regularly
and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the 12-volt battery may
need to be charged to maintain 12-volt
battery health.
REMOTE HYBRID START
Vehicles started with the Remote Hybrid
Start require the ignition switch to be
placed in the ON position before the shif t
lever can be moved from the P (Park) posi-
tion. To place the ignition switch in the ON
position, follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you.
2. Apply the brake. 3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON
position.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN
Intelligent Key®” in the “Pre-driving checks
and adjustments” section of this manual.
