Nissan Murano: Precautions when starting and driving / Off-road recovery
While driving, the right side or left side
wheels may unintentionally leave the road
surface. If this occurs, maintain control of
the vehicle by following the procedure below.
Please note that this procedure is only
a general guide. The vehicle must be driven
as appropriate based on the conditions of
the vehicle, road and traffic.
- Remain calm and do not overreact.
- Do not apply the brakes.
- Maintain a firm grip on the steering
wheel with both hands and try to hold a
straight course.
- When appropriate, slowly release the
accelerator pedal to gradually slow the
vehicle.
- If there is nothing in the way, steer the
vehicle to follow the road while vehicle
speed is reduced. Do not attempt to
drive the vehicle back onto the road
surface until vehicle speed is reduced.
- When it is safe to do so, gradually turn
the steering wheel until both tires return
to the road surface. When all tires
are on the road surface, steer the vehicle
to stay in the appropriate driving
lane.
- If you decide that it is not safe to return
the vehicle to the road surface
based on vehicle, road or traffic conditions,
gradually slow the vehicle to a
stop in a safe place off the road.
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe
and prudent manner may result in loss
of control or an accident.

Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can
occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged

pressure loss can also be caused by driving
