steering NISSAN FRONTIER 2023 Owner's Manual

The BSW system will turn on the side indi-
cator lights, located by the outside mirrors,
if the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone. If the turn signal is acti-
vated in the direction of the detected ve-
hicle, a chime sounds twice and the side
indicator light will flash.
The LDW system will sound a warning; the
steering wheel will vibrate; and the LDW
indicator (orange) will blink to alert the
driver of the vehicle is traveling close to
either the lef t or the right of a traveling lane
with detectable lane markers.
For additional information, see “Blind Spot
Warning (BSW)” (P. 5-32) and “Lane Depar-
ture Warning (LDW)” (P. 5-27).The vehicle should be driven with the VDC
system on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the
VDC system reduces the engine output to
reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will
be reduced even if the accelerator is de-
pressed to the floor. If maximum engine
power is needed to free a stuck vehicle,
turn the VDC system off.To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. Theindicator light will
come on.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart
the engine to turn on the system. For addi-
tional information, see “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” (P. 5-121).

WARNING
• Never rely solely on the hill descent
control system to control vehicle
speed when driving on steep down-
hill grades. Always drive carefully
when using the hill descent control
system and decelerate the vehicle
speed by depressing the brake pedal
if necessary. Be especially careful
when driving on frozen, muddy or ex-
tremely steep downhill roads. Failure
to control vehicle speed may result in
a loss of control of the vehicle and
possible serious injury or death. •
The hill descent control may not con-
trol the vehicle speed on a hill under
all load or road conditions. Always be
prepared to depress the brake pedal
to control vehicle speed. Failure to do
so may result in a collision or serious
personal injury.
CAUTION
When the hill descent control system
operates continuously for a long time,
the temperature of the brake pads may
increase and the hill descent control sys-
tem may be temporarily disabled (the
indicator light will blink). If the indicator
light does not come on continuously
af ter blinking, stop using the system.
The hill descent control system is designed
to reduce driver workload when going down
steep hills. The hill descent control system
helps to control vehicle speed so the driver
can concentrate on steering the vehicle.
To activate the hill descent control system:
• The shif t lever must be in forward or re- verse gear,
• The 4WD switch must be in the 4L posi- tion and the vehicle speed must be under
15 mph (25 km/h) or • The 4WD switch must be in the 4H posi-
tion and the vehicle speed must be under
21 mph (35 km/h), and
• The hill descent control system switch must be ON.
The hill descent control system ON indica-
tor light will come on when the system is
activated. Also, the stop/tail lights illumi-
nate while the hill descent control system
applies the brakes to control vehicle speed.
If the accelerator or brake pedal is de-
pressed while the hill descent control sys-
tem is on, the system will stop operating
temporarily. As soon as the accelerator or
brake pedal is released, the hill descent
control system begins to function again if
the hill descent control operating condi-
tions are fulfilled.
The hill descent control system ON indica-
tor light blinks if the switch is on and all
conditions for system activation are not
met or if the system becomes disengaged
for any reason.
To turn off the hill descent control system,
push the switch to the OFF position.
For additional information, see “Hill descent
control system ON indicator light” (P. 2-17)
and “Hill descent control system” (P. 5-123).

Loose Fuel Cap warning
The Loose Fuel Cap warning appears in the
vehicle information display when the fuel-
filler cap is not tightened correctly af ter the
vehicle has been refueled. It may take a few
driving trips for the message to be dis-
played. To turn off the warning, perform the
following:
1. Remove and install the fuel-filler cap asdescribed above as soon as possible.
2. Tighten the fuel-filler cap until a single click is heard.
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.
TILT OPERATION
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.

Indicate the predicted course when back-
ing up. The predicted course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shif t
lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the
steering wheel is turned. The predicted
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering wheel is turned and will
not be displayed while the steering wheel is
in the straight-ahead position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width
of the predicted course lines are wider than
the actual width and course.
Center guide lines

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill
surfaces or projecting objects will be actu-
ally located at distances different from
those displayed in the monitor relative to
the guidelines (refer to illustrations). When
in doubt, turn around and view the objects
as you are backing up, or park and exit the
vehicle to view the positioning of objects
behind the vehicle.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the ac-
tual distance. Note that any object on the
hill is further than it appears on the
monitor.

HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
• If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predicted course line and the ac-
tual course line.
• If the battery is disconnected or be-
comes discharged, the predicted
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, please perform
the following procedures:
–
Turn the steering wheel from lock
to lock while the engine is running.
– Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes.
• When the steering wheel is turned
with the ignition switch in the ACC
position, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly. 1. Visually check that the parking space is
safe before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle is displayed on the screen
OAwhen the shif t lever is
moved to the R (Reverse) position. 3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting the
steering wheel so that the predicted
course lines
OBenter the parking space
OC.
