Thebutton will be on the NISSAN
Intelligent Key® if the vehicle has Remote
Engine Start. This feature allows the engine
to start from outside the vehicle.
Vehicles with an automatic climate control
system will default to either a heating or
cooling mode depending on outside and
cabin temperatures. For additional infor-
mation, see “Remote Engine Start with In-
telligent Climate Control” (P. 4-34).
Laws in some local communities may re-
strict or prohibit the use of Remote Engine
Start, or the amount of time a parked ve-
hicle engine may idle. For example, some
laws require a person using Remote Engine Start to have the vehicle in view or may
restrict idling time except in freezing tem-
peratures. Check local regulations for any
requirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of
the Remote Engine Start feature. For addi-
tional information, see “Conditions the Re-
mote Engine Start will not work” (P. 3-20).
Other conditions can affect the perfor-
mance of the Intelligent Key transmitter.
For additional information, see “NISSAN In-
telligent Key® system” (P. 3-7).
REMOTE ENGINE START
OPERATING RANGE
WARNING
• 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. •
Do not use Remote Engine Start in
closed spaces such as a garage. Do
not breathe exhaust gases; they con-
tain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dan-
gerous. It can cause unconscious-
ness or death.
CAUTION
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating
location, the Intelligent Key operating
range becomes narrower, and the Intel-
ligent Key may not function properly.
The Remote Engine Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within
the specified operating range from the
vehicle.
The Remote Engine Start operating range
is approximately 197 f t (60 m) from the
vehicle.

NOTE:
To open, close or reverse the power lif t-
gate, the shif t position must be in P
(Park). Also, the power lif tgate will not
operate if battery voltage is low.
Power Open:
The power lif tgate automatically moves
from the fully closed position to the fully
open position in approximately5–8sec-
onds. The power open feature can be acti-
vated by the button on the Intelligent Key (if
so equipped), the instrument panel switch
or the lif tgate open switch. A chime sounds to indicate the power open sequence has
been started.
• When the vehicle is locked, the lif tgate
can be opened by the instrument panel
switch, button on the Intelligent Key (if so
equipped) or lif tgate opener switch

(with Intelligent Key in lif tgate range). The
lif tgate will individually unlock and open.
Once the lif tgate is closed, the vehicle will
remain in the unlock status.
• The Intelligent Key button (if so equipped) must be held for 1 second before the lif t-
gate opens. • The lif tgate must be unlocked to open it
with the lif tgate opener switch
OAand
without the Intelligent Key in lif tgate
range.
• The switch on the lif tgate
OAcan only be
used to open the lif tgate if the Power
Back Door feature is switched to ON us-
ing the “Vehicle Settings” menu in the ve-
hicle information display. For additional
information, see “Vehicle information dis-
play 7 inch (18 cm) Type A” (P. 2-22) or
“Vehicle information display 12.3 inch
(31 cm) Type B” (P. 2-45).

Power Close:
The power lif tgate automatically moves
from the fully open position to the second-
ary position. When the lif tgate reaches the
secondary position, the cinching motor en-
gages and pulls the lif tgate to its primary
latch position. Power close takes approxi-
mately7–10sec onds. The power close
feature can be activated by the button on
the Intelligent Key (if so equipped), the in-
strument panel, the lif tgate close switch
OB
and the lif tgate lock switchOC. A chime
sounds to indicate the power close se-
quence has been started. • If the lif tgate opener switch
OAis acti-
vated while the cinching motor is en-
gaged, the cinching motor will disengage
and release the latch.
• The Intelligent Key button (if so equipped) must be held for 1 second before the lif t-
gate closes.
• The lif tgate close switch
OBcan only be
used to close the lif tgate if the power
lif tgate main switch is in the ON position.
• If the lif tgate lock switch
OCis activated
the lif tgate will begin to close and all
doors will lock.
Stop - Reverse:
During an open/close movement, the lif t-
gate can be stopped, if the Intelligent Key
button (if so equipped), instrument panel or
lif tgate opener switch
OA, lif tgate close
switch
OBor lif tgate lock switchOCis
pushed. The lif tgate can be reversed if the
Intelligent Key button (if so equipped), in-
strument panel, lif tgate opener switch
OA
or lif tgate lock switchOCis pushed again. Auto Reverse:
If an obstacle is detected during power
open or power close, a warning chime will
sound and the lif tgate will reverse direction
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.
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., inside the vehicle before closing
the lif tgate.

OPENING THE FUEL-FILLER DOOR
To open the fuel-filler door, push the right
side of the fuel-filler door to release.
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.
• 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. 11-10).
•
For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P. 2-19).
• If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid
paint damage.

WARNING
• The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
• Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be lef t alone.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
• Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the inte-
rior air to become stale and the win-
dows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the controls
to activate the air conditioner.
NOTE:
• Odors from inside and outside the ve- hicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger
compartment through the vents.
