3-20Pre-driving checks and adjustments

1. Pull the hood lock release handleO1lo-
cated below the driver side instrument
panel until the hood springs up slightly.
2. Locate the lever
O2in between the hood
and grille and push the lever sideways
with your fingertips and raise the hood
O3.
When closing the hood, lower the hood to
approximately 12 in (30 cm) above the latch
and release it. This allows proper engage-
ment of the hood latch.
WARNING
• Make sure the hood is completely
closed and latched before driving.
Failure to do so could cause the hood
to fly open and result in an accident.
• If you see steam or smoke coming
from the engine compartment, to
avoid injury do not open the hood.
WARNING
• Always be sure the lif tgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
• Do not drive with the lif tgate open.
This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle.
For additional information, see “Ex-
haust gas (carbon monoxide)”
(P. 5-4).
• To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require
the assistance of others or pets unat-
tended 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 pets.
• Always be sure that hands and feet
are clear of the door frame to avoid
injury while closing the lif tgate.

and return to the full open or full close po-
sition. If a second obstacle is detected, the
lif tgate motion will stop and the lif tgate will
enter manual mode.
A pinch strip is mounted on each side of
the lif tgate. If an obstacle is detected by a
pinch strip during power close, the lif tgate
will reverse direction and return to the full
open position.
NOTE:
If the pinch strip is damaged or removed,
the power close function will not
operate.

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 47 in (120 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 Motion-Activated Lif tgate
electronic control unit (ECU) needs to be
replaced with an ECU programmed with
towing logic for the Motion-Activated
Lif tgate to function properly.
Proper operation technique
• While at the rear of the vehicle, beginmaking a quick forward kicking motion.
• Raise your foot straight under the center of the rear bumper then immediately re-
turn your foot to the ground in a continu-
ous motion.
• The kicking motion should be straight, smooth and consistent.
• Af ter your kick motion is complete, step back and allow the lif tgate to open/close.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25

CAUTION
• Interference or malfunction can be
caused by parking in close proximity
to radio or satellite towers.
• Intelligent Key interference could be
caused if you have your key fob
stored next to your cell phone or any
RF-enabled smart card. For addi-
tional information, see “NISSAN Intel-
ligent Key® system” (P. 3-7).
LIFTGATE RELEASE
WARNING
• Always be sure the lif tgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
• Do not drive with the lif tgate open.
This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle.
For additional information, see “Ex-
haust gas (carbon monoxide)”
(P. 5-4).
• To avoid personal injury, do not at-
tempt to activate the power lif tgate
if one or both of the lif tgate struts are
removed.
CAUTION
• If the power lif tgate does not stay
open or if the lif tgate unexpectedly
closes at any time while a continuous
warning chime sounds, do not oper-
ate the lif tgate. There may be a pres-
sure loss in one or both of the lif tgate
struts. It is recommended that you
have the lif tgate inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
• Do not activate the power lif tgate if
one or both of the lif tgate struts are
removed. Damage to the lif tgate or
power lif tgate mechanisms may
occur.
Lif tgate release (manual and
power)
The lif tgate release mechanism allows the
lif tgate to be opened in the event of a dis-
charged battery.
To release the lif tgate from the inside of the
vehicle, perform the following operations:
1. Position the rear bench seat forward. For additional information, see “Rear bench
seat adjustment” (P. 1-6).
2. Insert a suitable tool into the top access opening at about a 45 degree angle and
rotate to the lef t until the lock releases.

OPENER OPERATION
The fuel-filler door release is located below
the instrument panel. To open the fuel-filler
door, pull the release. To lock, close the fuel-
filler door securely.
FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused or mis-
handled. Always stop the engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames or
sparks near the vehicle when
refueling.
• Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank af ter the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically. Continued
refueling may cause fuel overflow,
resulting in fuel spray and possibly a
fire.
• Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the
Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light (MIL) to come on.
• Never pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle. •
Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices
when filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact
with the container while you are
filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel
containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
• Do not use a fuel containing more
than 15% ethanol in your vehicle. For
additional information, see “Fuel rec-
ommendation” (P. 10-4).

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for RearView Monitor. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result in
serious injury or death. •
The system cannot completely elimi-
nate blind spots and may not show
every object.
• Underneath the bumper and the cor-
ner areas of the bumper cannot be
viewed on the RearView Monitor be-
cause of its monitoring range limita-
tion. The system will not show small
objects below the bumper, and may
not show objects close to the bum-
per or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite compared
to when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors.
• Use the displayed lines as a refer-
ence. The lines are highly affected by
the number of occupants, fuel level,
vehicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
• Make sure that the lif tgate is securely
closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
