NISSAN ARMADA 2020 Owner´s Manual

painted lane markers; non-
standard lane markers; lane
markers covered with water,
dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detect-
able.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or
lines remaining after road re-
pairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with
the lane markers.
— When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which
obstructs the lane camera
unit detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt ad- heres to the windshield in
front of a lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or if aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters a lane camera unit. (For exam-
ple: light directly shines on the
front of the vehicle at sunrise
or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For exam-
ple: when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
. Do not use the I-BSI system under
the following conditions because
the system may not function
properly.
— During bad weather. (For ex-
ample: rain, fog, snow, etc.)
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow,
etc.
— When driving on winding or uneven roads.
— When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane. — When driving on roads where
the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire condi-
tions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation
of spare tire, tire chains, non-
standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts
or suspension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
. Excessive noise (for example,
audio system volume, open vehi-
cle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be
heard.

your vehicle approaches a lane marker
while another vehicle is in the detection
zone, the system chimes (three times)
and the side indicator light flashes. Then
the I-BSI system slightly applies the
brakes to help return the vehicle back to
the center of the driving lane.
NOTE:
.The radar sensors may not detect
vehicles which are approaching ra-
pidly from behind.
. If the driver activates the turn signal
before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will
flash but no chime will sound when the other vehicle is detected.

before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will
flash but no chime will sound when
the other vehicle is detected.

Illustration 10: The I-BSI system will not
operate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detec-

.The radar sensors may not detect a
vehicle which is traveling at about
the same speed as your vehicle
when it enters the detection zone.
. If the driver activates the turn signal
before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will
flash but no chime will sound when

I-BSI braking will not operate or will
stop operating and only a warning
chime will sound under the following
conditions.
—When the brake pedal is de-
pressed.
— When the vehicle is accelerated
during I-BSI system operation.
— When steering quickly
— When the ICC, I-DC, I-FCW or AEB

.Under the following conditions, a
chime will sound, the I-BSI ON indica-
tor light (green)
will blink and the I-
BSI system will be turned off auto-
matically. The I-BSI system will not be available until the conditions no long-
er exist.
— When the VDC system (except TCS
function) or ABS operates.
— When the VDC system is turned off.
Action to take:
Turn off the I-BSI system and turn it on
again when the above conditions no
longer exist.
. Under the following conditions, the I-
BSI system will be turned off auto-
matically, a chime will sound and the I-
BSI system warning light (orange)
will blink. The I-BSI system is not
available until the conditions no long-
er exist.
— When the camera detects that the
interior temperature is high (over
approximately 104°F (40°C)).
— When radar blockage is detected.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog. The blocked
condition may also be caused by objects
such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the
radar sensors.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, turn the I-BSI system off and turn
it on again. If the I-BSI system warning

5-52Starting and driving
after the I-BSI system is turned on again,
stop the vehicle in a safe location, place
the shift lever in the P (Park) position and
turn the engine off. Check for and remove
objects obscuring the radar sensors on
the rear bumper, and restart the engine.
If the I-BSI system warning light (orange)
continues to blink, have the I-BSI
system checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the I-BSI system malfunctions, it will
be turned off automatically, a chime will
sound and the I-BSI system warning light
(orange) will illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place
the shift lever in the P (Park) position, turn
the engine off and restart the engine.
If the warning light (orange) continues to
illuminate, have the I-BSI system checked.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the I-BSI
system are located near the rear bumper.
Always keep the area near the radar
sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be
caused by objects such as ice, frost or
dirt obstructing the radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstruct-
ing the area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or apply additional paint near the radar
sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around
the radar sensors.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer if the area around the radar
sensors is damaged due to a collision.
The lane camera unit
for I-BSI system is
located above the inside mirror. To keep
the proper operation of I-BSI and prevent
a system malfunction, be sure to observe
the following:
. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including
transparent material) or install an
accessory near the camera unit.
. Do not place reflective materials, such
as white paper or a mirror, on the
instrument 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. It is
recommended you contact a NISSAN
dealer if the camera unit is damaged
due to an accident.

The manufacturer is not responsible for
any radio or TV interference caused by
unauthorized modifications to this equip-
ment. Such modifications could void the
user’s authority to operate the equip-
ment.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-BI
system could result in serious injury
or death.
. The I-BI system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving proce-
dure, is not designed to prevent
contact with vehicles or objects
and does not provide full brake
power. When backing out of park-
ing spaces, always use the inside
and rear mirrors and turn and
look in the direction you will
move. Never rely solely on the I-
BI system.
. There is a limitation to the detec-
tion capability of the radar or the
sonar. Using the I-BI system un-
der some road, ground, traffic or
weather conditions could lead to
improper system operation. Al-
ways rely on your own operation
to avoid accidents.
The I-BI system can help alert the driver of
an approaching vehicle or objects behind
the vehicle when the driver is backing out
of a parking space.
JVS0912X
The I-BI system uses radar sensorsinstalled on both sides near the rear
bumper to detect an approaching vehicle
and sonar sensors
to detect objects in
the rear.
