ICC sensor maintenance
The radar sensor is 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 restoring the front
bumper, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
The camera sensor is located above the
inside mirror. To keep the proper operation of the sys-
tems 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.
∙ 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 mark-
ers.
∙ 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 recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
