ESP NISSAN PATHFINDER 2022 Owner´s Manual

WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the seat
belt becomes wrapped around a child’s
neck with the ALR mode activated, the
child can be seriously injured or killed if
the seat belt retracts and becomes
tight. This can occur even if the vehicle
is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to re-
lease the child. If the seat belt cannot
be unbuckled or is already unbuckled,
release the child by cutting the seat
belt with a suitable tool (such as a knife
or scissors) to release the seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in
this manual, child safety information is
available from many other sources, includ-
ing doctors, teachers, government traffic
safety offices, and community organiza-
tions. Every child is different, so be sure to
learn the best way to transport your child. There are three basic types of child re-
straint systems:
• Rear-facing child restraints
• Forward-facing child restraints
• Booster seats
The proper restraint depends on the child's
size. Generally, infants up to about 1 year
and less than 20 lbs. (9 kg) should be placed
in rear-facing child restraints. Forward-
facing child restraints are available for chil-
dren who outgrow rear-facing child re-
straints and are at least 1 year old. Booster
seats are used to help position a vehicle
lap/shoulder belt on a child who can no
longer use a forward-facing child restraint.
WARNING
Infants and children need special pro-
tection. The vehicle's seat belts may
not fit them properly. The shoulder belt
may come too close to the face or neck.
The lap belt may not fit over their small
hip bones. In an accident, an improp-
erly fitting seat belt could cause serious
or fatal injury. Always use appropriate
child restraints. All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved child
restraints for infants and small children.
For additional information, see “Child re-
straints” (P. 1-34).
A child restraint may be secured in the ve-
hicle by using either the LATCH (Lower An-
chors and Tethers for CHildren) system or
with the vehicle seat belt. For additional
information, see “Child restraints” (P. 1-34).
NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear
seat. Studies show that children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
This is especially important because
your vehicle has a supplemental re-
straint system (air bag system) for the
front passenger. For additional informa-
tion, see “Child restraints” (P. 1-34) and
“Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)”
(P. 1-61).
CHILD SAFETY
1-32Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

WARNING
• When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front
seat. If the side air bag inflates, you
may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who
should always be properly re-
strained. Some examples of danger-
ous riding positions are shown in the
illustrations.
• Do not use seat covers on the front or
rear seatbacks. They may interfere
with side air bag inflation.

If the parking brake is not released, the
electronic parking brake indicator light re-
mains illuminated. Ensure the electronic
parking brake indicator light has turned off
before driving.
If the electronic parking brake indicator
light illuminates or flashes while the elec-
tronic parking brake warning light
(yellow) illuminates, it may indicate that the
electronic parking brake system is not
functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
For additional information, see “Electronic

the light flickers or comes on during nor-
mal driving, pull off the road in a safe area,
stop the engineimmediatelyand call a
NISSAN dealer or other authorized repair
shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is
not designed to indicate a low oil level. Use the dipstick to check the oil level. For
additional information, see “Engine oil”
(P. 8-7 ).
CAUTION
• Running the engine with the engine
oil pressure warning light on could
cause serious damage to the engine
almost immediately. Such damage is
not covered by warranty. Turn off the
engine as soon as it is safe to do so.
• The engine oil pressure warning light
is not designed to indicate oil level.
The oil level should be checked using
the dipstick. For additional informa-
tion, see “Engine oil” (P. 8-7 ).

formation display–7 inch (18 cm) Type A”
(P. 2-22) or “Vehicle information display—12.3
inch (31 cm) Type B” (P. 2-45).
Seat belt warning light and
chime (if so equipped)
The light and chime remind you to fasten
the driver and front passenger seat belts.
The 2nd and 3rd row seats may also be
equipped with a seat belt reminder.
For additional information, see “Seat belts”
(P. 1-20).
Steering Assist Hands Off
warning light (if so
equipped)
When the Steering Assist is activated, it
monitors the driver’s steering wheel opera-
tion. If the steering wheel is not operated or
the driver takes his/her hands off the
steering wheel for a period of time, the
warning light illuminates. If the driver does
not operate the steering wheel af ter the
warning light has been illuminated, an au-
dible alert sounds and the warning flashes
in the vehicle information display, followed
by a quick brake application to request the
driver to take control of the vehicle again. If
the driver remains unresponsive, the ve-
hicle will automatically turn on the hazard
lights and slow to a complete stop.

functioning properly and may need servic-
ing. Have the power steering checked. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
When the electric power steering warning
light illuminates with the engine running,
there will be no power assist for the steer-
ing, but you will still have control of the
vehicle. At this time, greater steering effort
is required to operate the steering wheel,
especially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
For additional information, see “Power
steering” (P. 5-174).

If the engine fails to start using a registered
key (for example, when interference is
caused by another registered key, an auto-
mated toll road device or automatic pay-
ment device on the key ring), restart the
engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON posi-tion for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the de- vice (which may have caused the inter-
ference) separate from the registered
key.
If the no start condition reoccurs, NISSAN
recommends placing the registered key on
a separate key ring to avoid interference
from other devices. Never leave these keys in the vehicle.

NOTE:
• Once activated, your heated steeringwheel will automatically turn on and
off to maintain a temperature above
68°F (20°C).
• When the temperature of the steering wheel is above 122°F (50°C) and the
heated steering wheel switch is turned
on, the system will not heat the steer-
ing wheel. This is not a malfunction.
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
system may be temporarily disabled
(the indicator light will blink). If the indi-
cator light does not come on continu-
ously 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 vehicle speed must be under 15 mph (25 km/h)
