SYSTEM TEMPORARILY DISABLED

If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately

104°F

[40°C])

and

then

started, the LDW system may be deacti-
vated automatically, the LDW indicator
blinks (white) and the following message
will appear in the vehicle information dis-
play: “Not Available High Camera Temp.”

When the interior temperature is reduced,
the LDW system will resume operating
automatically.

The LDW system is not designed to warn
under the following conditions:
• When you operate the lane change signal

and change traveling lanes in the direc-
tion of the signal. (The LDW system will
become operable again approximately 2
seconds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)

• When the vehicle speed lowers to less

than approximately 37 mph (60 km/h).

After the above conditions have finished
and the necessary operating conditions
are satisfied, the LDW functions will resume.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

If the LDW system malfunctions, it will can-
cel automatically, the LDW indicator blinks
(yellow) and “Malfunction” will appear in the
vehicle information display. If “ Malfunction”
appears in the vehicle information display,
pull off the road to a safe location and stop
the vehicle. Place the shift lever in the P
(Park) position and the ignition switch in
the OFF position and restart the engine/
motor. If “Malfunction” continues to appear
in the vehicle information display, have the
system checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

The lane camera unit

for the LDW sys-

tem is located above the inside mirror. To
keep the proper operation of the LDW sys-
tem and prevent a system malfunction, be
sure to observe the following:
• Always keep the windshield clean.
• Do not attach a sticker (including trans-

parent material) or install an accessory
near the camera unit.

LSD4346

Starting and driving

5-31

• Do not place reflective materials, such as

white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely affect the camera unit’s
capability of detecting the lane markers.

• Do not strike or damage the areas

around the camera unit. Do not touch the
camera lens or remove the screw located
on the camera unit. If the camera unit is
damaged due to an accident, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the BSW
system could result in serious injury or
death.

•

The BSW system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is
not designed to prevent contact with
vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the di-
rection your vehicle will move to en-
sure it is safe to change lanes. Never
rely solely on the BSW system.

•

Do not use the BSW system when
towing a trailer. The system may not
function properly.

The BSW system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when
changing lanes.

The BSW system uses radar sensors

installed near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane.

LSD4347

BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) (if so
equipped)

5-32

Starting and driving

If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side BSW/RCTA indica-
tor light (1) illuminates. If the turn signal is
then activated, the system chimes (twice)
and the side BSW/RCTA indicator light
flashes and the BSW indicator blinks (yel-
low) in the vehicle information display. The
side BSW/RCTA indicator light continues to
flash until the detected vehicle leaves the
detection zone.

The side BSW/RCTA indicator light illumi-
nates for a few seconds when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position.

The brightness of the side BSW/RCTA indi-
cator light is adjusted automatically de-
pending on the brightness of the ambient
light.

If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal,
the side BSW/RCTA indicator light and
the BSW indicator flashes and no chime
sounds. For additional information, see
“BSW driving situations” (P. 5-36).

HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE
BSW SYSTEM

When the BSW system is enabled in the
vehicle information display, the system can
be turned off temporarily by pushing the

LSD4394

hicle information display illuminates.

BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations
for the BSW system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death.

•

The BSW system cannot detect all ve-
hicles under all conditions.

•

The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when cer-
tain objects are present such as:

–

Pedestrian, bicycles, animals.

–

Vehicles such as motorcycles, low

height vehicles, or high ground
clearance vehicles.

–

Oncoming vehicles.

–

Vehicles remaining in the detec-

tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop.

–

A vehicle merging into an adjacent

lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.

–

A vehicle approaching rapidly from

behind.

–

A vehicle which your vehicle over-

takes rapidly.

–

A vehicle that passes through the

detection zone quickly.

–

When overtaking several vehicles

in a row, the vehicles after the first
vehicle may not be detected if
they are traveling close together.

•

The radar sensor’s detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect ve-
hicles in an adjacent lane. When driv-
ing in a narrow lane, the radar sen-
sors may detect vehicles driving two
lanes away.

•

The radar sensors are designed to
ignore

most

stationary

objects;

however, objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This is
a normal operation condition.

•

The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:

–

Severe weather

–

Road spray

–

Ice/frost/snow/dirt build-up on

the vehicle

Starting and driving

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the ICC sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.

•

The ICC system is only an aid to assist
the driver and is not a collision
warning or avoidance device. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.

•

Always observe posted speed limits
and do not set the speed over them.

•

Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the ICC system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
ICC system. To avoid serious injury or
death, do not rely on the system to
prevent accidents or to control the
vehicle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the ICC system ex-
cept in appropriate road and traffic
conditions.

•

In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise

control

mode,

warning

chime will not sound to warn you if
you are too close to the vehicle
ahead. Pay special attention to the
distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead of you or a collision
could occur.

The ICC system maintains a selected dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of you within
the speed range of 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144
km/h) up to the set speed. The set speed
can be selected by the driver between 20 to
90 mph (30 to 144 km/h).

The vehicle travels at a set speed when the
road ahead is clear.

The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
•

Vehicle-to-vehicle

distance

control

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE

In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode, the ICC system automatically main-
tains a selected distance from the vehicle
traveling in front of you according to that
vehicle’s speed (up to the set speed), or at
the set speed when the road ahead is clear.

The ICC system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and
direction.

and can reduce the speed to match a
slower vehicle ahead. The system will de-
celerate the vehicle as necessary and if the
vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle
decelerates to a standstill. However, the ICC
system can only apply up to 40% of the
vehicle’s total braking power.

This system should only be used when
traffic conditions allow vehicle speeds to
remain fairly constant or when vehicle
speeds change gradually. If a vehicle
moves into the traveling lane ahead or if a
vehicle traveling ahead rapidly decelerates,
the distance between vehicles may be-
come closer because the ICC system can-
not decelerate the vehicle quickly enough.
If this occurs, the ICC system will sound a
warning chime and blink the system dis-
play to notify the driver to take necessary
action.

The system will cancel and a warning
chime will sound if the speed is below ap-
proximately 15 mph (25 km/h) and a vehicle
is not detected ahead. The system will also
disengage when the vehicle goes above
the maximum set speed.

For additional information, see “Approach
warning” (P. 5-62).

The following items are controlled in the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
• When there are no vehicles traveling

ahead, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode maintains the speed set
by the driver. The set speed range is
between approximately 20 and 90 mph
(30 and 144 km/h).

• When there is a vehicle traveling ahead,

the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode adjusts the speed to maintain the
distance, selected by the driver, from the
vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead comes
to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a
standstill within the limitations of the sys-
tem. The system will cancel once it judges
a standstill with a warning chime.

• When the vehicle traveling ahead has

moved out from its lane of travel, the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
accelerates and maintains vehicle speed
up to the set speed.

The ICC system does not control vehicle
speed or warn you when you approach
stationary and slow moving vehicles. You
must pay attention to vehicle operation to
maintain proper distance from vehicles
ahead when approaching toll gates or traf-
fic congestion.

When driving on the freeway at a set speed
and approaching a slower traveling vehicle
ahead, the ICC system will adjust the speed
to maintain the distance, selected by the
driver, from the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle
ahead changes lanes or exits the freeway,
the ICC system will accelerate and main-
tain the speed up to the set speed. Pay
attention to the driving operation to main-
tain control of the vehicle as it accelerates
to the set speed.

The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed on winding or hilly roads. If this oc-
curs, you will have to manually control the
vehicle speed.

Starting and driving

Normally when controlling the distance
to a vehicle ahead, this system automati-
cally accelerates or decelerates your ve-
hicle according to the speed of the vehicle
ahead. Depress the accelerator to properly
accelerate your vehicle when acceleration
is required for a lane change. Depress the
brake pedal when deceleration is required
to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle
ahead due to its sudden braking or if a ve-
hicle cuts in. Always stay alert when using
the ICC system.

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE SWITCHES

The system is operated by the ICC switch
and four control switches, all mounted on
the steering wheel.

CANCEL switch:

System set display without vehicle ahead

The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC sys-
tem maintains the set vehicle speed, simi-
lar to standard cruise control, as long as
no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.

Vehicle detected ahead

When a vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead, the ICC system decelerates the ve-
hicle by controlling the throttle and apply-
ing the brakes to match the speed of a
slower vehicle ahead. The system then
controls the vehicle speed based on the
speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the
driver selected distance.

NOTE:
• The stop lights of the vehicle come on

when braking is performed by the ICC
system.

• When the brake operates, a noise may

be heard. This is not a malfunction.

When a vehicle ahead is detected, the ve-
hicle ahead detection indicator comes on.
The ICC system will also display the set
speed and selected distance.

Vehicle ahead not detected

When a vehicle is no longer detected
ahead, the ICC system gradually acceler-
ates your vehicle to resume the previously
set vehicle speed. The ICC system then
maintains the set speed.

When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off.

If a vehicle ahead appears during accelera-
tion to the set vehicle speed or any time the
ICC system is in operation, the system con-
trols the distance to that vehicle.

When a vehicle is no longer detected under
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h), the sys-
tem will be canceled.
