When passing another vehicle,the set
speed indicator
Awill flash when the ve-
hicle speed exceeds the set speed. The ve-
hicle detect indicator will turn off when the
area ahead of the vehicle is open. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to
the previously set speed.
Even though your vehicle speed is set in the
ICC system, you can depress the accelera-
tor pedal when it is necessary to accelerate
your vehicle rapidly.
How to change the set vehicle
speed
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following methods:
∙ Push the CANCEL switch. The set ve- hicle speed indicator will go out.
∙ Tap the brake pedal. The set vehicle speed indicator will go out.
∙ If the Cruise Control Alerts are enabled in the Driver Assistance menu, the
“Cruise ON: Press SET to engage speed
control” message will reappear in the
vehicle information display to let you
know the cruise control system is still
on if you set the target speed again.
∙ Turn the CRUISE
switch off. The ICC
indicators will go out, and the Cruise
Control Alert messages will not appear.
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use
one of the following methods:
∙ Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET– switch.
∙ Push and hold the RES+ switch. The set vehicle speed will increase by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h for Canada). ∙ Push, then quickly release the RES+
switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will increase by approximately
1 mph (1 km/h for Canada).
To reset at a slower cruising speed, use
one of the following methods:
∙ Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET– switch and release it.
∙ Push and hold the SET– switch. The set vehicle speed will decrease by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h for Canada).
∙ Push, then quickly release the SET– switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will decrease by approximately
1 mph (1 km/h for Canada).
To resume the preset speed, push and
release the RES+ switch. The vehicle will
resume the last set cruising speed when
the vehicle speed is over 20 mph (32 km/h).

5-70Starting and driving

NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound
and the system display may blink when
the ICC sensor detects objects on the
side of the vehicle or on the side of the
road. This may cause the ICC system to
decelerate or accelerate the vehicle. The
ICC sensor may detect these objects
when the vehicle is driven on winding
roads, narrow roads, hilly roads, or when
entering or exiting a curve. In these
cases you will have to manually control
the proper distance ahead of your ve-
hicle.
Also, the radar sensor sensitivity can be
affected by vehicle operation (steering ma-
neuver or driving position in the lane) or
traffic or vehicle condition (for example, if a
vehicle is being driven with some damage).
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following condi-
tions and the control is automatically can-
celed:∙ When the vehicle ahead is not detected and your vehicle is traveling below the
speed of 15 mph (24 km/h)
∙ When the system judges the vehicle is at a standstill ∙ When the shif t lever is not in the D (Drive)
position, Manual mode.
∙ When the parking brake system is ap- plied
∙ When the VDC system is turned off
∙ When VDC operates
∙ When distance measurement be- comes impaired due to adhesion of dirt
or obstruction to the sensor
∙ When a wheel slips
∙ When the radar signal is temporarily in- terrupted
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the ICC system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death. ∙ The ICC system is primarily intended
for use on straight, dry, open roads
with light traffic. It is not advisable to
use the ICC system in city traffic or
congested areas.
∙ The ICC system will not adapt auto- matically to road conditions. This sys-
tem should be used in evenly flowing
traffic. Do not use the system on roads
with sharp curves, or on icy roads, in
heavy rain or in fog.
∙ As there is a performance limit to the distance control function, never rely
solely on the ICC system. This system
does not correct careless, inattentive
or absentminded driving, or over-
come poor visibility in rain, fog, or
other bad weather. Decelerate the ve-
hicle speed by depressing the brake
pedal, depending on the distance to
the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to main-
tain a safe distance between vehicles.

Action to take
If the warning light comes on, park the ve-
hicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and set
the ICC system again.
If it is not possible to set the system or
the indicator stays on, it may indicate
that the system is malfunctioning. Al-
though the vehicle is still drivable under
normal conditions, have the vehicle
checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the ICC system1is located
on the front of the vehicle.
To keep the ICC system operating properly,
be sure to observe the following:
∙ Always keep the sensor area clean.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensor.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the sensor. This could cause failure
or malfunction. ∙ Do not attach metallic objects near the
sensor area (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
∙ Do not alter, remove, or paint the front bumper. Before customizing or restor-
ing the front bumper, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer.

warnings and instructions for proper
use of the RAB system could result in
serious injury or death.
∙ When the vehicle approaches an ob- stacle while the accelerator or brake
pedal is depressed, the function may
not operate or the start of operation
may be delayed. The RAB system may
not operate or may not perform suffi-
ciently due to vehicle conditions, driv-
ing conditions, the traffic environ-
ment, the weather, road surface
conditions, etc. Do not wait for the

pedal by yourself as soon as
necessary.
∙ If it is necessary to override RAB op- eration, strongly press the accelerator
pedal. ∙ Always check your surroundings and
turn to check what is behind you be-
fore and while backing up. The RAB
system detects stationary objects be-
hind the vehicle. The RAB system does
not detect the following objects:
– Moving objects
– Low objects
– Narrow objects
– Wedge-shaped objects
– Objects close to the bumper (less than approximately 1 f t [30 cm])
– Objects that suddenly appear
– Thin objects such as rope, wire, chain, etc.
∙ The RAB system may not operate for the following obstacles:
– Obstacles located high off the ground
– Obstacles in a position offset from your vehicle
– Obstacles, such as spongy materi- als or snow, that have sof t outer
surfaces and can easily absorb a

If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
will firstly provide the warning to the driver
by flashing the vehicle ahead detection in-
dicator (yellow) in the vehicle information
display and providing an audible alert. If the
driver applies the brakes quickly and force-
fully af ter the warning, and the AEB with
Pedestrian Detection system detects that
there is still the possibility of a forward col-
lision, the system will automatically in-
crease the braking force.
