seat adjustment NISSAN ALTIMA 2020 Owner´s Manual

WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel whiledriving. 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.

3-28Pre-driving checks and adjustments

The automatic drive positioner system has
three features:∙ Memory storage function (Key-link)
∙ Memory storage function (Switch)
∙ Entry/exit function
Key-link, when enabled, automatically re-
tains the driver’s last seat and outside mir-
ror (if so equipped) position for that specific
key when the ignition is turned from ON to
OFF.
Each memory switch button (1 or 2) on the
driver’s door can also store one additional
position which is independent of the key-
linked position.
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
Use the following process to setup key-link:
1. Unlock the vehicle with the desired In- telligent Key while the ignition is OFF.
2. Place the ignition in the ON position.
3. Within the “Settings” menu of the ve- hicle information display, select “Key-
Linked Settings” and press the OK but-
ton on the steering switch.
4. While in the menu, press the OK button on the steering switch to turn the sys-
tem ON/OFF. Once step 4 is completed, every time the
ignition is switched from ON to OFF, the
memory positions of the driver’s seat and
outside mirror (if so equipped) are linked to
the Intelligent Key.
Follow the same procedure if you want
to link the 2nd, 3rd or 4th Intelligent Key.
NOTE:
If new memory positions are set prior to
turning the ignition from ON to OFF, the
previously linked memory positions for
the respective key will be overwritten by
new positions.
Recalling Intelligent Key memory
positions
If the “Key-Linked Settings” are enabled in
the vehicle information display for that par-
ticular key, every time you enter the vehicle
the driver’s seat and outside mirrors (if so
equipped) will automatically move to the
driver’s last position of the respective Intel-
ligent Key.
NOTE:
The key-linked memory positions can be
different from the positions stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2).

equipped)

MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
(switch)
Use the following process to manually store
the two memory positions in the switch:
1. The vehicle should be stopped whilesetting the memory.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat and outside mirror (if so equipped) to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Seats” in the “Safety—
Seats, seat belts and supplemental re-
straint system” and “Outside mirrors”
section of this manual. 3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec-
onds, push the memory switch (1 or 2).
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for ap-
proximately 5 seconds. The chime will
sound when the memory is stored.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in the
same memory switch, the previous
memory position will be overwritten by
the new stored position.
Recalling switch memory
positions
To recall the manually stored positions,
press the memory switch (1 or 2). The driv-
er’s seat and outside mirror (if so equipped)
will move to the positions stored to those
buttons.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat will automatically move when the shif t
lever is in the P (Park) position. This allows
the driver to easily get in and out of the
driver’s seat. The driver’s seat will slide backward:
∙ When the driver’s door is opened and the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
∙ When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat will return to the previous
position: ∙ When the ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON while the shif t lever is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through the “Vehicle Settings” in
the vehicle information display by perform-
ing the following: ∙ Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.
LPD2872
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-33

Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected or if the
fuse opens, the stored memory positions
may be lost and some of the functions will
be restricted.1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch
in the OFF position.
The entry/exit function should now work
properly.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will
not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions: ∙ When the vehicle speed is above 4 mph (7 km/h).
∙ When any of the memory switches are pushed while the automatic drive posi-
tioner is operating.
∙ When the switch for the driver’s seat is pushed while the automatic drive posi-
tioner is operating. ∙ When the seat has already been moved
to the memorized position.
∙ When no seat position is stored in the memory switch.
∙ When the shif t lever is moved from P (Park) to any other position.
3-34Pre-driving checks and adjustments

the parking brake applied. If the parking
brake needs adjustment, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
Seats:Check seat position controls such
as seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc., to
ensure they operate smoothly and all
latches lock securely in every position.
Check that the head restraints/headrests
move up and down smoothly and the locks
(if so equipped) hold securely in all latched
positions.
Seat belts: Check that all parts of the seat
belt system (for example, buckles, anchors,
adjusters and retractors) operate properly
and smoothly, and are installed securely.
Check the belt webbing for cuts, fraying,
wear or damage.
Steering wheel: Check for changes in the
steering system, such as excessive free
play, hard steering or strange noises.
Warning lights and chimes: Make sure all
warning lights and chimes are operating
properly.
Windshield defroster: Check that the air
comes out of the defroster outlets properly
and in sufficient quantity when operating
the heater or air conditioner. Windshield wiper and washer*:
Check
that the wipers and washer operate prop-
erly and that the wipers do not streak.
Under the hood and vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should
be checked periodically (for example, each
time you check the engine oil or refuel).
Battery*: This vehicle is equipped with a
sealed maintenance free battery. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for service.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-
charge and potential no-start conditions
such as:
1. Installation or extended use of elec-
tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (Phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.).
2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or
only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health. Brake fluid level*:
Make sure that the brake
fluid level is between the MAX and MIN lines
on the reservoir.
Engine coolant level*: Check the coolant
level when the engine is cold.
Engine drive belts*: Make sure the drive
belts are not frayed, worn, cracked or oily.
Engine oil level*: Check the level af ter
parking the vehicle on a level spot and
turning off the engine. Wait more than
15 minutes for the oil to drain back into the
oil pan.
Exhaust system: Make sure there are no
loose supports, cracks or holes. If the
sound of the exhaust seems unusual or
there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immedi-
ately have the exhaust system inspected. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Exhaust gas (carbon mon-
oxide)” in the “Starting and driving” section
of this manual.
Fluid leaks: Check under the vehicle for
fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks af ter the
vehicle has been parked for a while. Water
dripping from the air conditioner af ter use
is normal. If you should notice any leaks or if
