2023 NISSAN FRONTIER warning

1. CAMERA button
WARNING
• Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Mov-
ing Object Detection system could
result in serious injury or death. •
The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contact with
objects surrounding the vehicle.
When maneuvering, always use the
outside mirrors and rearview mirror
and turn and check the surroundings
to ensure it is safe to maneuver. •
The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
•
The MOD system is not designed to de-
tect surrounding stationary objects.

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.

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.
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.
• When parking, set the heater and air conditioner controls to turn off air re-
circulation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle. While the engine is stopped by the Idling
Stop System, activating the front defroster
will cause the engine to automatically re-
start. While the engine is running, activating
the front defroster or adjusting the fan
speed to the maximum setting will prevent
the Idling Stop System from automatically
stopping the engine.
When the engine is stopped by the Idling
Stop System, heater and air conditioner
performance may be reduced. To keep full
heater and air conditioner performance,
restart the engine by pushing the Idling
Stop OFF switch.
Temperature outlet may automatically
change to preserve comfort in some con-
ditions. Blower may reduce to avoid excess
hot/cold air under some conditions. When
engine on resumes, the user settings for
temperature and blower will be restored.
For additional information, see “Idling Stop
System” (P. 5-129).

• When the climate system is in automaticoperation and the engine coolant tem-
perature and outside air temperature
are low, the air flow outlet may default to
defroster mode for approximately 2 min-
utes 30 seconds. This is not a malfunc-
tion. Af ter the engine coolant tempera-
ture warms up, the air flow outlet will
return to foot mode and operation will
continue normally.
• When the outside and interior cabin tem- peratures are moderate to high, the in-
take setting may default to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. You may no-
tice air flow from the foot mode, bi-level
mode, or side demist vent outlets for a
maximum of 15 seconds. This may occur
when previous climate setting was sys-
tem off. This is not a malfunction. Af ter
the initial warm air is expelled, the intake
will return to automatic control, air flow
outlet will return to previous settings, and
operation will continue normally. To exit,
press any climate control button.
• Keep the windows closed while the air conditioner is in operation. • If you feel that the air flow mode you have
selected and the outlets the air is coming
out do not match, select the
mode.
• When you change the air flow mode, you may feel air flow from the foot outlets for
just a moment. This is not a malfunction.
• When the ignition is placed in the ON po- sition, in some fogging or high cabin
temp conditions, air may flow automati-
cally to the foot outlets for 3 to 7 seconds
to purge the hot air in the system. The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
vehicle is charged with a refrigerant de-
signed with the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the
earth's ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
is required when servicing your NISSAN air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to
your air conditioner system. For additional
information, see “Air conditioner system
refrigerant and oil recommendations”
(P. 10-8).
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer to service your “environmentally
friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The
air conditioner system contains re-
frigerant under high pressure. To avoid
personal injury, any air conditioner ser-
vice should be done only by an experi-
enced technician with proper equipment.

ROOF MOUNTED ANTENNA
The antenna is located on the rear part of
the vehicle roof.
CAUTION
• A build up of ice on the antenna can
affect radio performance. Remove
the ice to restore radio reception.
• When removing snow from the roof,
do not apply strong force to the an-
tenna. That might break the antenna
and dent the roof panel.
• When using a high pressure car wash,
keep the high pressure nozzle away
from the antenna. The seal may be
deformed or damaged.
• The radio performance may be af-
fected if cargo carried on the roof
blocks the radio signal. If possible, do
not put cargo near the antenna. When installing a CB, ham radio or car
phone in your vehicle, be sure to observe
the following precautions; otherwise, the
new equipment may adversely affect the
engine control system and other electronic
parts.
WARNING
• A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle op-
eration. Some jurisdictions prohibit
the use of cellular phones while
driving.
• If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands free
cellular phone operational mode is
highly recommended. Exercise ex-
treme caution at all times so full at-
tention may be given to vehicle
operation.
• If you are unable to devote full atten-
tion to vehicle operation while talk-
ing on the phone, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop your vehicle.
CAUTION
• Keep the antenna as far away as pos-
sible from the electronic control
modules.
• Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harnesses. Do not
route the antenna wire next to any
harness.
• Adjust the antenna standing-wave
ratio as recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
• For additional information, it is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for servicing.
