DRIVING SAFETYPRECAUTI ONS
GUID-0B A35F18-20 70-428E-9EBB -57A04344BFFA
Y our NISSAN isdesigned forboth normal and
off-road use.However, avoiddriving indeep
water ormud asyour NISSAN ismainly
designed forleisure use,unlike aconventional
off-road vehicle.
Remember thatTwo-Wheel Drive(2WD) mod-
els are less capable thanAll-Wheel Drive
(A WD) models forrough roaddriving and
extrication whenstuckindeep snow,mud, or
the like.
Please observe thefollowing precautions:
WARNING
. Drive carefully whenoffthe road
and avoid dangerous areas.Every
person whodrives orrides inthis
vehicle shouldbeseated withtheir
seat beltfastened. Thiswillkeep
you and your passengers inposition
when driving overrough terrain.
. Do not drive across steepslopes.
Instead driveeither straight upor
straight downtheslopes. Off-road
vehicles cantipover sideways much
more easily thantheycanforward or
backward.
. Many hillsaretoo steep forany
vehicle. Ifyou drive upthem, you
may stall. Ifyou drive down them,
you may notbeable tocontrol your
speed. Ifyou drive across them,you
may rollover.
. Donot shift ranges whiledriving on
downhill gradesasthis could cause
loss ofcontrol ofthe vehicle.
. Stay alert when driving tothe top of
a hill. Atthe top there could bea
drop-off orother hazard thatcould
cause anaccident.

Starting anddriving
. Ifyour engine stallsoryou cannot
make itto the top ofasteep hill,
never attempt toturn around. Your
vehicle couldtiporroll over. Always
back straight downinR(Reverse)
range. Neverbackdown inN(Neu-
tral) ,using onlythebrake, asthis
could cause lossofcontrol.
. Heavy braking goingdownahill
could cause yourbrakes tooverheat
and fade, resulting inloss ofcontrol
and anaccident. Applybrakes
lightly andusealow range to
control yourspeed.
. Unsecured cargocanbethrown
around whendriving overrough
terrain. Properly secureallcargo
so itwill notbethrown forward
and cause injurytoyou oryour
passengers.
. To avoid raising thecenter ofgravity
excessively, donot exceed therated
capacity ofthe roof rack (ifso
equipped) andevenly distribute the
load. Secure heavyloadsinthe
cargo areaasfar forward andas
low aspossible. Donot equip the
vehicle withtires larger thanspeci-
fied inthis manual. Thiscould cause your
vehicle toroll over.
. Do not grip theinside orspokes of
the steering wheelwhendriving off-
road. Thesteering wheelcould
move suddenly andinjure your
hands. Instead drivewithyour fin-
gers andthumbs onthe outside of
the rim.
. Before operating thevehicle, ensure
that thedriver andallpassengers
have theirseatbelts fastened.
. Always drivewiththefloor mats in
place asthe floor maybecame hot.
. Lower yourspeed whenencounter-
ing strong crosswinds. Withahigher
center ofgravity, yourNISSAN is
more affected bystrong sidewinds.
Slower speeds ensurebettervehicle
control.
. Do not drive beyond theperfor-
mance capability ofthe tires, even
with AWD engaged.
. For AWD equipped vehicles,donot
attempt toraise twowheels offthe
ground andshift thetransmission to
any drive orreverse position with
the engine running. Doingsomay
result indrivetrain damageorun- expected
vehiclemovement which
could result inserious vehicleda-
mage orpersonal injury.
. Do not attempt totest anAWD
equipped vehicleona2-wheel dy-
namometer (suchasthe dynam-
ometers usedbysome states for
emissions testing),or similar equip-
ment evenifthe other twowheels
are raised offthe ground. Makesure
you inform testfacility personnel
that your vehicle isequipped with
AWD before itis placed ona
dynamometer. Usingthewrong test
equipment mayresult indrivetrain
damage orunexpected vehicle
movement whichcouldresult in
serious vehicledamage orpersonal
injury.
. When awheel isoff the ground due
to an unlevel surface, donot spin
