6. Release the sunshade close switch. Initial­ization procedure is complete.

Depending on the environment or driving conditions, the auto-reverse function may be activated if an impact or load similar to something being caught in the sunshade occurs.
WARNING
There are some small distances immedi­ately before the closed position which cannot be detected. Make sure that all of the passengers have their hands, etc., in­side the vehicle before closing the sunshade.

WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION REMINDERS!
Follow these important driving rules to help ensure a safe and comfortable trip for you and your passengers!
NEVER drive under the influence of al­cohol or drugs.
ALWAYS observe posted speed limits and never drive too fast for conditions.
ALWAYS give your full attention to driving
and avoid using vehicle features or taking other actions that could distract you.
ALWAYS use your seat belts and appro­priate child restraint systems. Pre-teen children should be seated in the rear seat.
ALWAYS provide information about the proper use of vehicle safety features to all occupants of the vehicle.

WHEN READING THE MANUAL
For descriptions specified for 4-wheel drive models, a 4WD mark is placed at the beginning of the applicable sections/items.
As with other vehicles with features for off-road use, failure to operate 4-wheel drive models correctly may result in loss of control or an accident. For additional infor­mation, refer to “Driving safety precau­tions” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIV­ING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car because it has a higher center of gravity for off-road use. As with other vehicles with features of this type, fail­ure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or an accident.

Installing an aftermarket On-Board Diag­nostic (OBD) plug-in device that uses the port during normal driving, for example remote insurance company monitoring, remote vehicle diagnostics, telematics or engine reprogramming, may cause inter­ference or damage to vehicle systems. We do not recommend or endorse the use of any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices, un­less specifically approved by NISSAN. The vehicle warranty may not cover damage caused by any aftermarket plug-in device.

SEATS
WARNING
Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious internal injuries.
ARS1152
For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back and upright in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat properly. For additional information, refer to “Pre­cautions on seat belt usage” in this section.
After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac­tivate switches or controls or make the vehicle move. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.
To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave children, people who require the assis­tance of others or pets unattended in your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera­ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm day can quickly become high enough to cause a significant risk of injury or death to people and pets.
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given to vehicle operation. The seat may move suddenly and could cause loss of con­trol of the vehicle.
The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the pas­senger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
