door lock NISSAN ROGUE 2021 Owner´s Manual

WARNING
.Always be sure the liftgate has
been closed securely to prevent it
from opening while driving.
. Do not drive with the liftgate
open. This could allow dangerous
exhaust gases to be drawn into
the vehicle. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Exhaust gas
(carbon monoxide)” (P.5-5).
. To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and or its
systems, including entrapment
in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the
assistance of others or pets un-
attended in your vehicle. Addi-
tionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury
or death to people and pets.
. Always be sure that hands and
feet are clear of the door frame to
avoid injury while closing the
liftgate.
CAUTION
Do not use accessory carriers that
attach to the liftgate. Doing so will
cause damage to the vehicle.

of the liftgate. If an obstacle is detected
by the pinch sensor during power close,
the liftgate will reverse and return to the
full open position immediately.
NOTE:
If the pinch sensor is damaged or
removed, the power close function will
not operate.
WARNING
There is a small distance immedi-
ately before the closed position that

in an accident.
. The following operations are not
allowed because excessive force
would be applied to the transmis-
sion and this may result in da-
mage to the vehicle:
— Moving the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position when driv-
ing forward
— Moving the shift lever to the D (Drive) position when rever-
sing
If these operations are at-
tempted, a chime sounds and
the vehicle shifts to the N (Neu-
tral) position.
P (Park):
CAUTION
. To prevent transmission damage,
use the P (Park) position only
when the vehicle is completely
stopped.
. Do not slide the shift lever while
pushing the park button. This
may damage the shift control
system. Use this position when the vehicle is
parked or starting the engine. Always
make sure that the vehicle is completely
stopped before pushing the park button
to engage the P (Park) position. For
maximum safety, the brake pedal must
be depressed before engaging the P
(Park) position. Use this position together
with the electronic parking brake. When
parking on a hill, first depress the brake
pedal, apply the electronic parking brake
and then engage the P (Park) position.
The parking lock should not be used as a
brake when parking. In order to secure
the vehicle, always apply the electronic
parking brake in addition to the parking
lock.
In the event of a malfunction of the
vehicle’s electronics, the transmission
may lock in the P (Park) position. Have
the vehicle’s electronics checked immedi-
ately. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
The P (Park) position is automatically
engaged if:
.
You switch off the ignition switch
. You unfasten the driver’s seat belt and
open the driver side door when the
vehicle is stationary or driving at very
low speed and the transmission is in
the D (Drive) position, the R (Reverse)
position or the N position unless the Neutral hold mode is engaged.
CAUTION
To avoid CVT malfunction, it is re-
commended that you manually
place the shift position in the P (Park)
position under the above conditions.
R (Reverse):
CAUTION
To prevent transmission damage,
use the R (Reverse) position only
when the vehicle is completely
stopped.
Use the R (Reverse) position to back up.
Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before selecting the R (Reverse)
position. The brake pedal must be de-
pressed and the shift lever button
pushed to move the shift lever from
the home position to R (Reverse). If the
vehicle is placed in the R (Reverse)
position while the vehicle is moving
forward, the chime will sound and the
vehicle will switch into the N (Neutral)
position.

.When the shift position is placed in the
P (Park) position.
. When the driver’s door is opened.
. When the driver’s seat belt is unfas-
tened.
The electronic parking brake is automati-
cally released as soon as the vehicle
starts while the accelerator pedal is
depressed under the following condi-
tions.
. While the engine is running.
. When the shift position is in the D
(Drive) or R (Reverse) position.
. When the driver’s door is closed.
The electronic parking brake is automati-
cally released within 5 seconds after the
shift position is placed in the D (Drive) or R
(Reverse) position even if the driver’s door
is opened. Be sure to close the door
before starting the vehicle.
WARNING
. When the automatic brake hold
function is activated, the electro-
nic parking brake will not be
automatically applied when the
engine is stopped without using
the ignition switch (for example,
by engine stalling). Without the vehicle stationary,
the electronic parking brake will
not be automatically applied
even if the engine is turned off
with the ignition switch.
. Before leaving the vehicle, place
the shift position in the P (Park)
position and check that the elec-
tronic parking brake warning
light is illuminated to confirm
that the electronic parking brake
is applied. The electronic parking
brake warning light will remain
on for a period of time after the
driver’s door is locked.
CAUTION
When parking in an area where the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C), the electronic parking brake, if
applied, may freeze in place and may
be difficult to release.
For safe parking, it is recommended
that you place the shift position in
the P (Park) position and securely
block the wheels. NOTE:
.

released after the engine is turned
off, place the ignition switch in the
OFF position, depress the brake
pedal and push down the parking
brake switch before opening the
driver’s door.

electronic parking brake will auto-
matically be applied and the brake
force of the automatic brake hold
will be released.
—The braking force is applied by
the automatic brake hold function
for 3 minutes or longer.
— The vehicle is placed in the P
(Park) position.
— The driver’s seat belt is unfas-
tened.

interrupted.
Action to take:
When the conditions listed above are no
longer present, turn the system off using
the ProPILOT Assist switch. Turn the
ProPILOT Assist system back on to use
the system.
NOTE:
When the ICC system is canceled under
any of the following conditions at a
standstill, the electronic parking brake
is automatically activated:

sensor, the ICC system will automatically
be canceled, the chime will sound and the
“Forward Driving Aids temporarily dis-
abled Front Sensor blocked” warning
message will appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
Action to take:

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sonar sensorsare located on the
rear bumper.
. Always keep the area near the sonar
sensors clean.
. If the sonar sensors are dirty, wipe
them off with a soft cloth while being
careful to not damage them.
. The sonar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such
as splashing water, mist or fog. The
blocked condition may also be caused
by objects such as ice, frost or dirt
obstructing the sonar sensors. Check
for and remove objects obstructing
the area around the sonar sensors. .
Do not subject the area around the
sonar sensors to strong impact. Also,
do not remove or disassemble the
sonar sensors. If the sonar sensors
and peripheral areas are deformed in
an accident, etc., have the sonar
sensors checked. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install acces-
sories or apply additional paint on
the sonar sensors and their surround-
ing areas. This may cause a malfunc-
tion or improper operation.
. When washing the vehicle using a
high-pressure washer, do not apply
direct washer pressure on the sonar
sensors. This may cause a malfunction
of the sonar sensors.
FREEING A FROZEN DOOR LOCK
To prevent a door lock from freezing,
apply deicer through the key hole. If the
lock becomes frozen, heat the key before
inserting it into the key hole, or use the
Intelligent Key system.
ANTI-FREEZE
In the winter when it is anticipated that
the outside temperature will drop below
32°F (0°C), check the anti-freeze to assure
proper winter protection. For additional
information, see “Engine cooling system”
(P.8-4).
BATTERY
If the battery is not fully charged during
extremely cold weather conditions, the
battery fluid may freeze and damage the
battery. To maintain maximum efficiency,
the battery should be checked regularly.
For additional information, see “Battery”
(P.8-11).
DRAINING OF COOLANT WATER
If the vehicle is to be left outside without
anti-freeze, drain the cooling system,
including the engine block. Refill before
operating the vehicle. For details, see
“Engine cooling system” (P.8-4).
