2022 NISSAN FRONTIER Owner´s Manual

When the E-Lock switch is turned on, the
indicator light will flash until the system
engages. However, if all operation condi-
tions listed above are not met or the sys-
tem becomes disengaged, the indicator
light will continue to flash.
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is dis-
abled and the ABS light illuminates when
the E-Lock system is on. Also, the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system is disabled
and the VDC light illuminates when the
E-Lock system is on.
For additional information, see “Electronic
locking rear differential (E-Lock) system”
(P. 5-116) for further explanation and system
limitations.
WARNING
• Never leave the E-Lock system on
when driving on paved or hard-
surfaced roads. Turning the vehicle
may result in the rear wheels slipping
and result in an accident and per-
sonal injury. Af ter using the E-Lock
system to free the vehicle, turn the
system off. •
Use the E-Lock system only when
freeing a stuck vehicle. Try the 4LO
position before using the E-Lock sys-
tem. Never use the E-Lock system on
a slippery road surface such as snow
or ice surface. Using the E-Lock sys-
tem when driving in these road con-
ditions may cause unexpected
movement of the vehicle during en-
gine braking, accelerating or turning,
which may result in an accident and
serious personal injury.
CAUTION
• Af ter using the E-Lock system, turn
the switch off to prevent possible
damage to driveline components
from extended use.
• Do not drive over 12 mph (20 km/h)
when the system is engaged. Doing
so could result in possible damage to
the driveline.
• Do not turn on the E-Lock system
while the tires are spinning. Doing so
could damage drivetrain
components. To use the outlets for devices that require
up to 120v power, the vehicle must be run-
ning and the power inverter switch must
be on.
When the vehicle is in the P (Park) position,
the 400W and the 150W will automatically
illuminate. When the vehicle is out of the P
(Park) position, only 150W will illuminate.
For additional information, see “120v out-
lets” (P. 2-56) regarding using devices that
require the power inverter switch to be
activated.LIC4847

CAUTION
• Use power outlets with the engine
running to avoid discharging the ve-
hicle battery.
• Do not attempt to use this while
driving.
• Do not use double adapters or more
than one electrical accessory, doing
so could significantly drain the bat-
tery of your vehicle.
The Parking Aids system switch on the in-
strument panel allows the driver to turn
the following systems (if so equipped) on
and off. To turn the systems on and off, the
ignition switch must be in the ON position.
• Rear Sonar System (RSS) (if so equipped)
• Moving Object Detection (MOD) (if soequipped)
• Rear Automatic Braking (RAB) (if so equipped)
• Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) (if so equipped) The indicator light on the switch will illumi-
nate when the systems are turned on.
If the indicator light flashes when the RSS,
MOD, RAB, or RCTA systems are not turned
off, it may indicate a malfunction in one or
more of these systems (if so equipped).
The RSS, MOD, RAB, or RCTA systems will be
turned on automatically under the follow-
ing conditions:
• When the ignition switch is switched from
the OFF position to the ON position.
• When the shif t lever is shif ted into the R (Reverse) position.
The automatic turning on function can be
turned on and off for these systems in the
vehicle information display. For additional
information, see “Settings” (P. 2-21).
For additional information, see “Rear Sonar
System (RSS)” (P. 5-124), ”Rear Automatic
Braking (RAB)” (P. 5-76), “Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA)” (P. 5-43), or “Moving Object De-
tection (MOD)” (P. 4-22).

Tow mode should be used when pulling a
heavy trailer or hauling a heavy load. Driv-
ing the vehicle in the tow mode with no
trailer/load or light trailer/light load will not
cause any damage. However, fuel
economy may be reduced, and the
transmission/engine driving characteris-
tics may feel unusual.
Push the tow mode switch to activate tow
mode. The TOW indicator light illuminates
when tow mode is selected. Push the tow
mode switch again to turn tow mode off.Tow mode is automatically canceled when
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
For additional information, see “Towing a
trailer” (P. 10-27).
The Emergency call (SOS) system button is
used in combination with a
NissanConnect® Services subscription to
call for assistance in case of an emergency.
Pushing the button will (with a paid sub-
scription) reach a Response Specialist that
will provide assistance based on the situa-
tion described by the vehicle’s occupant.

The Rear Door Alert system functions un-
der certain conditions to indicate there
may be an object or passenger in the rear
seat(s). Check the seat(s) before exiting the
vehicle.
The Rear Door Alert system is initially dis-
abled. The driver can enable the system
using the vehicle information display. For
additional information, see “Vehicle infor-
mation display warnings and indicators”
(P. 2-28).
When the system is enabled:
• The system is activated when a rear dooris opened and closed within 10 minutes of
the vehicle being driven. When the driver’
door is closed and the system is acti-
vated, a visual message appears in the
vehicle information display. For additional
information, see “Rear Door Alert is acti-
vated” (P. 2-30).
• If a rear door is opened and closed but the vehicle is not driven within approxi-
mately 10 minutes, the system will not be
activated. A rear door must be opened
and closed and the car driven within 10
minutes for the system to activate. When the Rear Door Alert system is acti-
vated and a driver exits the vehicle af ter
arriving at a destination:
• When the driver puts the vehicle in the P
(Park) position, a message appears in the
vehicle information display for a driver to
“Dismiss Message” or “Disable Alert” if
desired.
• With the system enabled, when the driver exits the vehicle, an audible alert (horn
sound) will occur unless a rear door is
opened and closed within a short time to
deactivate the alert.
• If the doors are locked before the alert is deactivated by opening a rear door, the
horn will sound.
• If the audible horn alert occurs, a mes- sage will also appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display that states, “Check Rear
Seat for All Articles”.WARNING
• If the driver selects “Disable Alert”, no
audible alert will be provided regard-
less of rear door open/close status.
• There may be times when there is an
object or passenger in the rear seat(s)
but the audible alert does not sound.
For example, this may occur if rear seat
passengers enter or exit the vehicle
during a trip.
• The system does not directly detect
objects or passengers in the rear
seat(s). Instead, it can detect when a
rear door is opened and closed, indicat-
ing that there may be something in the
rear seat(s).
NOTE:
There may be times when the horn
sounds but there are no objects or pas-
sengers in the rear seat(s).
For additional information, see “Rear Door
Alert is activated” (P. 2-30).

** OFF means the inverter system cannot be reset until a device is within the specification range of operation. If the device is greater than specified, the inverter
will shut OFF. The operating voltage is between 11.5v and 15v. If the vehicle is not idling, the battery voltage will drop which will cause the inverter to shut down
when below 11.5v. When the vehicle is in the (P) Park position, it will work at 400W. If the vehicle is in any other shif ter position, it will turn off.
