2022 NISSAN FRONTIER warning

For descriptions specified for 4-wheel drive
models, amark is placed at the be-
ginning of the applicable sections/items.
As with other vehicles with features for
off-road use, failure to operate 4-wheel
drive models correctly may result in loss
of control or a collision. For additional
information, see “Driving safety precau-
tions” (P. 5-11).
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

ure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or an accident.
For additional information, see “On-
pavement and off-road driving precau-
tions” (P. 5-9), “Avoiding collision and
roll-over” (P. 5-9) and “Driving safety
precautions” (P. 5-11).
