TILT OPERATION (if so equipped)

WARNING

∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel while

driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.

∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel any

closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver’s air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious or
fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.

Pull the lock lever toward the driver and
hold it to adjust the steering wheel up or
down to the desired position.

Release the lock lever to lock the steering
wheel in place.

AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE
REARVIEW MIRROR (if so equipped)

The inside mirror is designed so that it au-
tomatically dims during night time condi-
tions and according to the intensity of the
headlights of the vehicle following you. The
automatic anti-glare sensor

䊊

is activated

when the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.

The indicator light

䊊

will illuminate when

the automatic anti-glare sensor feature is
operating.

NOTE:

Do not hang any objects over the sen-
sors or apply glass cleaner to the sen-
sors. Doing so will reduce the sensitivity
of the sensors, resulting in improper op-
eration.

The indicator light will illuminate when the
automatic anti-glare feature is operating.

With the ignition switch in the ON position,
press the

button as described:

∙ To turn off the anti-glare feature, press

the

button. The indicator light will

turn off.

∙ To turn on the anti-glare feature, press

the

button again. The indicator

light will turn on.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS

WARNING

∙ Objects viewed in the outside mirror

on the passenger side are closer than
they appear. Be careful when moving
to the right. Using only this mirror
could cause an accident. Use the in-
side mirror or glance over your shoul-
der to properly judge distances to
other objects.

∙ Do not adjust the mirrors while driv-

ing. You could lose control of your ve-
hicle and cause an accident.

Manual control type (if so
equipped)

The outside mirrors can be moved in any
direction for a better rear view.

Electric control type (if so
equipped)

The outside mirror remote control will op-
erate only when the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position.

Move the small switch

䊊

to select the right

or left mirror. Move the large switch

䊊

adjust each mirror to the desired position.
Move the small switch

䊊

to the center

(neutral) position to prevent accidentally
moving the mirror.

Foldable outside mirrors

Pull the outside mirror toward the door to
fold it.

Heated mirrors (if so equipped)

Some outside mirrors can be heated to
defrost, defog, or de-ice for improved vis-
ibility. For additional information, refer to
“Rear window or outside mirror defroster
switch (if so equipped)” in the “Instruments
and controls” section of this manual.

TAILGATE

Opening the tailgate

Pull the tailgate handle upward and lower
the tailgate. The support cables hold the
tailgate open.

When closing the tailgate, make sure the
latches are securely locked.

Do not drive the vehicle with the tailgate
down, unless equipped with NISSAN’s
Bed Extender (accessory) or equivalent
in the extended position.

For additional information on proper truck
box loading, refer to “Vehicle loading infor-
mation” in the “Technical and consumer in-
formation” section of this manual.

WARNING

∙ Never allow anyone to ride in the

cargo area or on the rear seat when it
is in the folded position. Use of these
areas by passengers without proper
restraints could result in serious injury
or death in an accident or sudden
stop.

∙ It is extremely dangerous to ride in a

cargo area inside a vehicle. In a colli-
sion, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.

∙ Do not allow people to ride in any area

of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts.

∙ Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a

seat and using a seat belt properly.
