LIFTGATE RELEASE 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. See "Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)" in the "Starting and driving" section of this manual. SPA2547 CAUTION ● If the power liftgate does not stay open or if the liftgate unexpectedly closes at any time while a continuous warning chime sounds, do not operate the liftgate. There may be a pressure loss in one or both of the liftgate gas stays. Have the liftgate inspected by a NISSAN dealer. ● Do not activate the power liftgate if one or both of the liftgate gas stays are removed. Damage to the liftgate or power liftgate mechanisms may occur.
