BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) WITH REAR CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT (RCTA) (if so equipped)
The BSW system helps to alert the driver when
another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s
detection zone.
An indicator light located near the outside mirrors
1 will illuminate if the radar sensors detect a
vehicle in the detection zone.
The indicator light 2 will illuminate after the ignition switch is
on and the BSW system is enabled.
The RCTA system helps to alert the driver of an approaching
vehicle when the driver is bac king out of a parking space. The system operates when
the shift lever is in the R (REVERSE) position and the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h).
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and the “Starting and driving (section
5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
1
FORWARD EMERGENCY BRAKING (FEB) (if so equipped)
The FEB system can assist the driver when there is a risk of a forward
collision with a vehicle ahead in the traveling lane.
The FEB operates at speeds greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).
If there is a risk of a forward collision, an audible tone will sound an\
d
the vehicle ahead detection indicator light 1 will illuminate. If the
driver applies the brakes after the warning and the FEB system detects
that there is still the possibility of a forward collision, the system w\
ill
automatically increase the braking force. If the driver does not take
action, the FEB system will issue a second visual warning
2, an audible warning and
also apply partial braking.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

heated steering wheel switc h
1 is turned on, the system will not heat the steering
wheel. This does not indicate a malfunction.

ESSE NTIAL I N FOR MATION
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
WITH EASY FILL TIRE ALERT
A Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning
mess age will appear in the vehicle information
display
1 and the low tire pressure warning
light
2 will illuminate when one or
more tires are low in pressure and
air is needed.
• The tire pressures should be c

hecked when
the tires are cold. The tires are considered cold
after the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or driven
less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy Fill
T ire Alert provides visual and audible signals to help you inflate
the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the Easy Fill Tire Alert system:
1. Move the shift lever to the P (P

ARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2. Place the ignition switch in the O

N position. Do not start the engine.
3.


Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the haza\
rd warning
lights will start flashing.
4.


When the designated tire pressure is reac
hed, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning flashers will stop.
5.


Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 \
mph (25 km/h).
The Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning message and low tire pressure warning
light
2 will extinguish.
When the low tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for approximately 1 minute and
then remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a Nissan dealer for this service.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle\
’s operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the tempe\
rature of
the air inside the tire, whic
h can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light
2 to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates,
check the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior \
to long
dist

ance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to
the “T echnical and consumer information (section 9)” of your Owner’s Manual for the
location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)”
and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
