I-BI SYSTEM OPERATION
When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the I-BI
system operates.
If the radar detects a vehicle approaching
from the side or the sonar detects close
stationary objects behind the vehicle, the
system gives visual and audible warnings.
If the driver does not apply the brakes, the
system automatically applies the brake
for a moment when the vehicle is moving
backwards. After the automatic brake
application, the driver must depress the
brake pedal to maintain brake pressure. If
the driver’s foot is on the accelerator

pedal, the system pushes the accelerator
upward before applying the brake. If you
continue to accelerate, the system will
not engage the brake.

If the radar detects an approaching
vehicle from the side, the system chimes
(once), the side indicator light on the side
the vehicle is approaching from flashes

.In the case of several vehicles ap-
proaching in a row (Illustration 1) or in
the opposite direction (Illustration 2), a
chime may not be issued to the I-BI
system after the first vehicle passes
the sensors.
. The sonar system chime indicating
there is an object behind the vehicle
has a higher priority than the I-BI
chime (single beep) indicating an ap-
proaching vehicle. If the sonar system
detects an object behind the vehicle
and the I-BI system detects an ap-
proaching vehicle at the same time,
the following indications are provided:
— The sonar system chime sounds
— The side indicator light on the side
of the approaching vehicle flashes,
and
— A yellow rectangular frame appears in the center display.
JVS0307X
If an approaching vehicle or close object
behind the vehicle is detected when your
vehicle is backing up, a red frame
will
appear in the center display and the
system will chime three times. Then, the
brakes will be applied momentarily. After
the automatic brake application, the dri-
ver must depress the brake pedal to
maintain brake pressure.
If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accelerator
pedal upward before the braking is ap-
plied. However, if you continue to accel-
erate, the system will not engage the
brakes. The I-BI system does not operate if the
object is very close to the bumper.

JVS0182XI-BI OFF indicator
The I-BI system can be turned off tem-
porarily by touching the I-BI system key
on the center display. The indicator on
the I-BI system key turns off and the I-BI
OFF indicator appears on the vehicle
information display.
When the shift lever is placed in the R
(Reverse) position again, the I-BI system is
turned on.
HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE I-BI
SYSTEM
The I-BI system can be turned off perma-
nently using the center display.

I-BI SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-BI system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordancewith these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.
Always check your surroundings
and turn to check what is behind
you before backing up. .
The radar sensors detect ap-
proaching (moving) vehicles. The
radar sensors cannot detect
every object such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
or child operated toy vehicles
— A vehicle that passing at speeds greater than approxi-
mately 15 MPH (24 km/h)
. The radar sensors may not detect
approaching vehicles in certain
situations:
— Illustration a. When a vehicle
parked next to you obstructs
the beam of the radar sensor.
— Illustration b. When the vehicle is parked in an angled parking
space.
— Illustration c. When the vehicle is parked on inclined ground.
— Illustration d. When an ap- proaching vehicle turns into
your vehicle’s parking lot aisle.
— Illustration e. When the angle formed by your vehicle and
approaching vehicle is small.
. The following conditions may re-
duce the ability of the radar
sensors to detect other vehicles:

— Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build up on thevehicle
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install ac-
cessories or apply additional
paint near the radar sensors.
These conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar sensors to
detect other vehicles.
. The sonar sensors detect station-
ary objects behind the vehicle.
The sonar sensor may not detect:
— Small or moving objects
— Wedge-shaped objects
— Object close to the bumper
(less than approximately 1 ft
(30 cm))
— Thin objects such as rope, wire and chain, etc.
. The brake engagement by the I-
BI system is not as effective on a
slope as it is on flat ground. When
on a steep slope the system may
not function properly.
. Do not use the I-BI system under
the following conditions because
the system may not function properly.
— 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.

Vehicle information display
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
Under the following conditions, a chime
will sound and “BCI NOT AVAILABLE”
warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display
, and the I-
BI system will be turned off automatically.
. If the vehicle is parked in direct sun-
light under high temperature condi-
tions (over approximately 104°F
(40°C)).
. When side radar blockage is detected.
Turn off the I-BI system and turn it on
again when the above conditions no
longer exist.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the I-BI system malfunctions, it will turn
off automatically, a chime will sound and
“BCI MALFUNCTION” warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display
.
Action to take
Stop the vehicle in a safe location and
place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position. Turn the engine off and restart
the engine. If the warning message con-
tinues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
JVS0908X
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the I-BI
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.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the ICC
system could result in serious injury
or death.
.ICC is not a collision avoidance or
warning device. For highway use
only and it is not intended for
congested areas or city driving.
Failure to apply the brakes could
result in an accident.
. Always observe posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them.
. Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using either cruise
control mode. Read and under-
stand the Owner’s Manual thor-
oughly before using the cruise
control. To avoid serious injury
or death, do not rely on the
system to prevent accidents or
to control the vehicle’s speed in
emergency situations. Do not use
cruise control except in appropri-
ate road and traffic conditions.
. In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning
chime will not sound to warn you if you are too close to the vehicle
ahead. Pay special attention to
the distance between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle ahead of you
or a collision could occur.
The ICC system maintains a selected
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).
The vehicle travels at a set speed when
the road ahead is clear.
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes.
. Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode:
For maintaining a selected distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you up to the preset speed.
. Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode:
For cruising at a preset speed.
