NISSAN ALTIMA 2023 Owners Manual

•The ProPILOT Assist system does not
react to stationary and slow moving
vehicles.
• Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the ProPILOT Assist
system. Read and understand the
Owner’s Manual thoroughly before
using the ProPILOT Assist system. To
avoid serious injury or death, do not
rely on the system to prevent acci-
dents or to control the vehicle’s
speed in emergency situations. Do
not use the ProPILOT Assist system
except in appropriate road and traffic
conditions.
The ProPILOT Assist system is intended to
enhance the operation of the vehicle when
following a vehicle traveling in the same
lane and direction.
The ProPILOT Assist system uses a multi-
sensing front camera
OAinstalled behind
the windshield and a radar sensor located
on the front of the vehicle
OBto measure
the distance to the vehicle ahead in the
same lane and to monitor the lane mark-
ers. If the vehicle detects a slower moving
vehicle ahead, the system will reduce the
vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows
the vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The system will also help keep the vehicle centered in the traveling lane when clear
lane markings are detected.

2Vehicle information display
3Steering-wheel-mounted control (right)
4ProPILOT Assist switch
The ProPILOT Assist system has the follow-
ing two functions:
1. Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
• Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode: For cruising at a preset speed
NOTE:Steering Assist is not available in the
conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode.
•Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode: The ICC system maintains a se-
lected distance 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 (32 to 144
km/h). When the vehicle ahead slows to a
stop, your vehicle gradually decelerates
to a standstill. When the vehicle is
stopped, the ICC system maintains brak-
ing force to keep your vehicle stopped.
LSD3224
5-96Starting and driving

NOTE:When your vehicle is stopped for less
than 3 seconds and the vehicle ahead
begins to move, your vehicle will start
moving again automatically.– When your vehicle is at a standstillfor more than 3 seconds and the
vehicle ahead begins to accelerate,
push the RES+ switch or lightly de-
press the accelerator pedal. The
ICC system starts to follow the ve-
hicle ahead.
– When no vehicle is detected ahead within the driver selected distance,
the vehicle travels at the speed set
by the driver. The speed must be
above 20 mph (32 km/h) to use this
function.
NOTE:Even if the Automatic Emergency Brak-
ing (AEB) with Pedestrian Detection set-
ting is turned off by the driver using the
“Settings” menu in the vehicle informa-
tion display, AEB with Pedestrian Detec-
tion will be automatically turned on
when ICC is used. 2.
Steering Assist
The Steering Assist function controls the
steering system to help keep your ve-
hicle within the traveling lane.
When there is no vehicle ahead, Steering
Assist is not available at speeds under 37
mph (60 km/h).

NOTE:
ProPILOT Assist provides no approach
warnings, automatic braking, or steering
assist in the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode.
To choose the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, push and hold the
ProPILOT Assist switch for longer than ap-
proximately 1.5 seconds. For additional in-
formation, see “Conventional (fixed speed)

OPERATING PROPILOT ASSIST
1. Push the ProPILOT Assist switchOA. This
turns on the ProPILOT Assist system. 2. A screen is displayed for a period of time
that indicates the status of the driving
aid functions.
– AEB with Pedestrian Detection, LDW, and BSW are enabled when the specified
driving aid is shaded.
– I-LI is enabled when the driving aid is solid. – To change the status of the driving aids,
use the
O1orO2button to
navigate the settings screen. For addi-
tional information, see “How to use the
vehicle information display” (P. 2-35).
3. The status of the ProPILOT Assist sys- tem is displayed in the vehicle informa-
tion display
OB.
4. Accelerate or decelerate your vehicle to the desired speed.

NOTE:
When Lane Departure Prevention is en-
abled in the settings menu, turning the
ProPILOT Assist system (if so equipped)
on will activate the I-LI system at the
same time. If Lane Departure Prevention
is not enabled in the settings menu, I-LI
will automatically activate when the Pro-
PILOT Assist system is “SET.” For addi-
tional information, see “Intelligent Lane
Intervention (I-LI)” (P. 5-40). When the SET- switch is pushed under the
following conditions, the ProPILOT Assist
system cannot be set and the set vehicle

How to change the set vehicle
speed
The set vehicle speed can be adjusted.
To change to a faster cruising speed:
• Push and hold the RES+ switch. The set vehicle speed increases by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h).
• Push, then quickly release, the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed increases by approximately 1 mph
(1 km/h). To change to a slower cruising speed:
• Push and hold the SET- switch. The set
vehicle speed decreases by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h).
• Push, then quickly release, the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed decreases by approximately 1 mph
(1 km/h).
How to momentarily accelerate or
decelerate
• Depress the accelerator pedal when ac-celeration is required. Release the accel-
erator pedal to resume the previously set
vehicle speed.
• Depress the brake pedal when decelera- tion is required. Control by the ProPILOT
Assist system is canceled. Push the RES+
switch to resume the previously set ve-
hicle speed.

WARNING
When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed and you are approaching the
vehicle ahead, the ICC system will nei-
ther control the brake nor warn the
driver with the chime and display. The
driver must manually control the ve-
hicle speed to maintain a safe distance
to the vehicle ahead. Failure to do so
could result in severe personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
When you accelerate by depressing the
accelerator pedal or decelerate by push-
ing the SET- switch and the vehicle trav-
els faster than the speed set by the
driver, the set speed vehicle indicator will
blink.
How to change the set distance
to the vehicle ahead
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be
selected at any time.
Each time the DISTANCE switch
OAis
pushed, the set distance will change to
long, middle, short and back to long again
in that sequence.

• The distance to the vehicle ahead changes automatically according to the
vehicle speed. The higher the vehicle
speed, the longer the distance.
• The distance setting will remain at the current setting even if the engine is
restarted.
