Nissan Pathfinder (2018 year). Instruction - part 14

∙ Use only an original equipment type

fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious mal-
function and possible injury. It could
also cause the

Malfunction Indi-

cator Light (MIL) to come on.

∙ 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, refer to “Fuel
recommendation” in the “Technical
and consumer information” section of
this manual.

∙ The Loose Fuel Cap warning message

will be displayed/warning will appear
if the fuel-filler cap is not properly
tightened. It may take a few driving
trips for the message to be displayed.
Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly after the Loose Fuel Cap
warning

message

displayed/warning

appears

may

cause the

Malfunction Indicator

Light (MIL) to illuminate.

∙ Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap

properly may cause the

Mal-

function Indicator Light (MIL) to illumi-
nate. If the

not turn off after a few driving trips,
have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

∙ For additional information, refer to

“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and controls” sec-
tion of this manual.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

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.

CAUTION

For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping

functions

the

steering

wheel, after the vehicle’s battery has
been discharged, may prevent the
steering wheel position from being
adjusted.

For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Both the tilt and telescopic steering
operation must be reset after the vehicle’s
battery has been discharged in order to
prevent the tilt and telescopic operation
from locking in one position. When the bat-
tery has been recharged or replaced, per-
form the following:

∙ For tilt operation, adjust the switch

䊊

so the steering wheel moves to the
highest

position

䊊

that

can

reached.

∙ For telescopic operation, adjust the

switch

䊊

so the steering wheel moves

to the most forward and backward po-
sition

䊊

that can be reached.

Performing these operations resets the
range of the steering wheel’s tilt and tele-
scopic function.

Entry/Exit function (if so
equipped)

The automatic drive positioner system (if
so equipped) will make the steering wheel
move up automatically when the driver’s
door is opened and the ignition switch is in
the LOCK position. This lets the driver get
into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position
when the driver’s door is closed and the
ignition switch is pushed.
