LIFTGATE RELEASE
WARNING
● Always be sure the liftgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.
● Do not drive with the liftgate open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases
to be drawn into the vehicle. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Exhaust
gas (carbon monoxide)” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
● To avoid personal injury, do not attempt
to activate the power liftgate if one or
both of the liftgate gas stays are
removed.
CAUTION
● If the power liftgate does not stay open
or if the liftgate unexpectedly closes at
any time while a continuous warning
chime sounds, do not operate the lift-
gate. There may be a pressure loss in
one or both of the liftgate gas stays.
Have the liftgate inspected by a NISSAN
dealer.
● Do not activate the power liftgate if one
or both of the liftgate gas stays are
removed. Damage to the liftgate or
power liftgate mechanisms may occur.
Liftgate release (manual and power)
The liftgate release mechanism allows the liftgate
to be opened in the event of a discharged battery.

(if so equipped)” in the “Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system”
