Nissan Armada 2025-2026 Owner's Manual: Basic information

WARNING

• Ensure that the Nissan Armada liftgate is fully closed and securely latched before driving to prevent it from opening unexpectedly.
• Never drive the Nissan Armada with the liftgate open, as harmful exhaust gases may enter the cabin.
• To reduce the risk of injury or fatal incidents in the Nissan Armada, do not leave children, pets, or individuals requiring assistance unattended inside the vehicle.

  The interior temperature can increase rapidly, especially in warm weather conditions.

• Keep hands, fingers, and feet clear of the Nissan Armada liftgate area when opening or closing to prevent injury.

CAUTION

Do not install accessories or carriers directly onto the Nissan Armada liftgate, as this may damage the vehicle structure.

Operating manual liftgate

Example

To open the Nissan Armada liftgate manually, unlock it and press the liftgate opener switch A. Then lift the liftgate upward.

The Nissan Armada liftgate can be unlocked in several ways:

• Using the liftgate request switch (if equipped) while carrying the Intelligent Key.
• Pressing the UNLOCK button on the Intelligent Key.
• Using the power door lock switch to the UNLOCK position.

To close the Nissan Armada liftgate, pull it downward firmly until it locks securely.

Operating power liftgate

The Nissan Armada power liftgate operates only when the vehicle is in the P (Park) position.

If the battery voltage is low, the Nissan Armada power liftgate may not function properly.

If the liftgate is positioned within approximately 5.9 in (150 mm) of the fully closed position, the power function will not activate. In this case, close the liftgate manually before using the power feature again.

The Nissan Armada power liftgate system can be enabled or disabled via the vehicle information display settings.

NOTE:

• When washing or servicing the Nissan Armada, or when placing a cover over the vehicle, disable the power liftgate to prevent unintended activation.
• If repeated open/close commands are issued, the Nissan Armada safety system may temporarily disable operation. Wait briefly before retrying.

• Pressing the power liftgate switch A on the instrument panel for more than 1 second
• Pressing the power liftgate button C on the Intelligent Key

Power close and lock

When the liftgate is open and the Nissan Armada Intelligent Key is nearby, pressing the liftgate lock switch E will automatically close and lock all doors and the liftgate.

The Nissan Armada will emit an external chime during this operation.

Stop and reverse function

The Nissan Armada power liftgate will stop immediately if any of the following actions occur during operation:

• Pressing the power liftgate switch A
• Pressing the liftgate opener switch B
• Pressing the liftgate close switch D
• Pressing the Intelligent Key liftgate button C

If the action is repeated, the Nissan Armada liftgate will reverse its direction.

An audible chime confirms the reversal operation.

Auto reverse function

The Nissan Armada liftgate includes an auto-reverse safety feature that detects obstacles during opening or closing.

If an obstruction is detected, the liftgate will reverse direction and stop automatically.

If a second obstruction is detected, movement will stop completely.

Pinch sensors located on both sides of the Nissan Armada liftgate further enhance safety by reversing motion when resistance is detected.

NOTE:

If the pinch sensors are damaged or removed, the Nissan Armada power closing function may not operate correctly.

WARNING

There is a small area near the fully closed position that may not be detected by sensors. Always ensure that hands and objects are clear before closing the Nissan Armada liftgate.

Manual mode

If the Nissan Armada power liftgate system is unavailable due to low battery voltage or positioning, the liftgate can be operated manually.

Manual operation may also be required if the liftgate is nearly closed (within 5.9 in / 150 mm).

If a power operation is interrupted, the Nissan Armada liftgate can be switched to manual mode and then returned to normal automatic operation afterward.

This flexibility ensures that the Nissan Armada liftgate remains functional under various conditions while maintaining convenience and safety.
