NOTE: If the pinch strip is damaged or removed, the power close function will not operate. CAUTION ● If the power back door does not stay open or if the door unexpectedly closes at any time while a continuous warning chime sounds, do not operate the back door. There may be a pressure loss in one or both of the back door gas stays. Have the back door inspected by a NISSAN dealer. ● Do not activate the power back door if one or both of the back door gas stays are removed. Damage to the back door or power back door mechanisms may occur. WARNING There are some small distances immediately before the closed position which cannot be detected. Make sure that all passengers have their hands, etc., inside the vehicle before closing the door. Manual Mode: If power operation is not available, the back door may be operated manually. Power operation may not be available if the main ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position, if multiple obstacles have been detected in a single power cycle, or if battery voltage is low. LPD0238 Safe Mode: If the back door gas stays 1 lose pressure, the power back door safe mode is activated. When the safe mode is activated, the back door slowly closes. A continuous warning chime sounds until the door is in the fully down position. Then the door will be pulled to the closed and latched position by a motor. The power back door cannot be opened using the switches at any time in the safe mode. The auto reverse function remains active while the door is closing in the safe mode. Do not operate the back door again until it is checked by your NISSAN dealer. BACK DOOR RELEASE WARNING ● Always be sure the back door has been closed securely to prevent it from opening while driving. ● Do not drive with the back door open. This could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be drawn into the vehicle. See "Exhaust gas" in the "Starting and driving" section of this manual. 3-18 Pre-driving checks and adjustments
