2023 NISSAN ALTIMA Turning

INTERIOR TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNING
Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them from
playing and becoming locked in the
trunk where they could be seriously in-
jured. Keep the car locked, with the rear
seatback and trunk lid securely latched
when not in use, and prevent children's
access to car keys. The interior trunk lid release mechanism
provides a means of escape for children
and adults in the event they become
locked inside the trunk.
To open the trunk from the inside, pull the
illuminated release handle until the lock re-
leases and push up on the trunk lid. The
release handle is made of a material that
glows in the dark af ter a brief exposure to
ambient light.
The handle is located inside the trunk com-
partment on the interior of the trunk lid.
INTERIOR TRUNK ACCESS
The trunk can be accessed from the pas-
senger side of the rear seat.
1. Move the front passenger seat to the
most forward position.
2. Open the access cover on the rear par- cel shelf.
3. Slide the handle in the direction of the arrow.
4. Fold down the passenger’s side seatback.
For additional information, see “Folding
rear seat” (P. 1-6).
WARNING
• Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seat when it
is in the fold-down position. Use of
these areas by passengers without
proper restraints could result in seri-
ous injury or death in an accident or
sudden stop.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury.
• When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched
position. If they are not completely
secured, passengers may be injured
in an accident or sudden stop.
• Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them
from playing and becoming locked in
the trunk where they could be seri-
ously injured. Keep the car locked,
with the rear seatback and trunk lid
securely latched when not in use, and
prevent children's access to car keys.

3-28Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Once step 4 is completed, every time the
ignition is switched from ON to OFF, the
memory positions of the driver’s seat and
outside mirror (if so equipped) are linked to
the Intelligent Key.
Follow the same procedure if you want
to link the 2nd, 3rd or 4th Intelligent Key.
NOTE:
If new memory positions are set prior to
turning the ignition from ON to OFF, the
previously linked memory positions for
the respective key will be overwritten by
new positions.
Recalling Intelligent Key memory
positions
If the “Key-Linked Settings” are enabled in
the vehicle information display for that par-
ticular key, every time you enter the vehicle
the driver’s seat and outside mirrors (if so
equipped) will automatically move to the
driver’s last position of the respective Intel-
ligent Key.
NOTE:
The key-linked memory positions can be
different from the positions stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2).
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
(switch)
Use the following process to manually
store the two memory positions in the
switch:
1. The vehicle should be stopped while set-ting the memory.
2. Adjust the driver's seat and outside mir- ror (if so equipped) to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each ad-
justing switch. For additional
information, see “Front power seat ad-
justment” (P. 1-4) and “Outside mirrors”
(P. 3-30). 3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec-
onds, push the memory switch (1 or 2).
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for ap-
proximately 5 seconds. The chime will
sound when the memory is stored.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in the
same memory switch, the previous
memory position will be overwritten by
the new stored position.
Recalling switch memory
positions
To recall the manually stored positions,
press the memory switch (1 or 2). The driv-
er’s seat and outside mirror (if so equipped)
will move to the positions stored to those
buttons.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
• Do not use the MOD system when
towing a trailer. The system may not
function properly.
• Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume or open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard. •
The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental
conditions and surrounding objects
such as:
– When there is low contrast be-
tween background and the mov-
ing objects.
– When there is a blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in
its usual position, such as when a
mirror is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving
objects in the display is not
changed.
• The MOD system might detect flow-
ing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc.
• The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, di-
rection, distance or shape of the
moving objects. •
If your vehicle sustains damage to
the parts where the camera is in-
stalled, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered and
the MOD system may not detect ob-
jects properly.
• When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not dis-
play objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.
NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to or-
ange if one of the following has oc-
curred:
• When the system is malfunctioning.
• When the component temperature
reaches a high level (icon will blink).
• When the RearView camera has de-
tected a blockage (icon will blink).
If the icon light continues to illuminate
orange, have the MOD system checked. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
