SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the AEB with pedestrian detection
system malfunctions, it will be turned off
automatically, a chime will sound, the AEB
system warning light will (orange) will
illuminate and the “Malfunction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
Action to take:
If the warning light (orange) comes on,
stop the vehicle in a safe location. Turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If
the warning light continues to illuminate,
have the AEB with pedestrian detection
system checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensoris located on the front
of the vehicle. The camerais located on
the upper side of the windshield.
To keep the AEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system operating properly, be sure to
observe the following:
. Always keep the sensor area on the
front of the vehicle and windshield
clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas
around the sensors (ex. bumper, wind-
shield).
. Do not cover or attach stickers or
similar objects on the front of the
vehicle near the sensor area. This could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not attach metallic objects near
the radar sensor area (brush guard,
etc.). This could cause failure or mal-
function.
. 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 detection capability.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
of the vehicle near the sensor area.
Before customizing or restoring the
sensor area, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
FCW system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The I-FCW system helps warn the
driver before a collision but will
not avoid a collision. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely and be in con-
trol of the vehicle at all times.
The I-FCW system can help alert the driver
when there is a sudden braking of a
second vehicle traveling in front of the
vehicle ahead in the same lane.
WAF0724X
The I-FCW system uses a radar sensorlocated on the front of the vehicle to
measure the distance to a second vehicle
ahead in the same lane.

I-FCW SYSTEM OPERATION
The I-FCW system operates at speeds
above approximately 3 MPH (5 km/h).
If there is a potential risk of a forward
collision, the I-FCW system will warn the
driver by blinking the vehicle ahead
detection indicator, and sounding an
audible alert.

TURNING THE I-FCW SYSTEM ON/
OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the I-
FCW system on or off.
1. Push the
button until “Set-
tings” appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display and then push the OK. Use the
to select “Driver Assistance.”
Then push the OK.
2. Select “Emergency Brake” and push the OK.
3. Select “Front” and use the OK to turn the system on or off.
When the I-FCW system is turned off, the
AEB system warning light (orange) illumi-
nates.
NOTE:
. The I-FCW system will be automati-
cally turned on when the engine is
restarted.
. The I-FCW system is integrated into
the AEB system. There is not a
separate selection for the I-FCW
system. When the AEB system is
turned off, the I-FCW system is also
turned off.

I-FCW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-FCW system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.The I-FCW system cannot detect
all vehicles under all conditions.
. The radar sensor does not detect
the following objects: — Pedestrians, animals or obsta-
cles in the roadway
— Oncoming vehicles
— Crossing vehicles
. (Illustration A) The I-FCW system
does not function when a vehicle
ahead is a narrow vehicle, such as
a motorcycle.
. The radar sensor may not detect
a vehicle ahead in the following
conditions:
— Snow or heavy rain — Dirt, ice, snow or other materi-
al covering the radar sensor
— Interference by other radar sources
— Snow or road spray from tra- velling vehicles.
— Driving in a tunnel
— Towing a trailer
. (Illustration B) When the vehicle
ahead is being towed.
. (Illustration C) When the distance
to the vehicle ahead is too close,
the beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
. (Illustration D) When driving on a
steep downhill slope or roads
with sharp curves.
. The system is designed to auto-
matically check the sensor’s func-
tionality, within certain
limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstruction
of the sensor area such as ice,
snow, stickers, for example. In
these cases, the system may not
be able to warn the driver prop-
erly. Be sure that you check, clean
and clear the sensor area regu-
larly.

.Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and
the chime may not be heard.
SSD0253
When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction, the
radar sensor may detect vehicles in a
different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This
may cause the I-FCW system to work
inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition. If this
occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the vehicle ahead detection
indicator and sounding the chime un-
expectedly. You will have to manually
control the proper distance away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
Condition A
When the radar sensor picks up interfer-
ence from another radar source, making
it impossible to detect a vehicle ahead,
the I-FCW system is automatically turned
off. The AEB system warning light (or-
ange) will illuminate.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the I-FCW system will resume auto-
matically.

Condition B
Under the following conditions, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
I-FCW system is automatically turned off.
The AEB system warning light (orange)
will illuminate and the “Forward Driving
Aids temporarily disabled Front Sensor
blocked See Owner’s Manual” warning
message will appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
.When the sensor area of the front of
the vehicle is covered with dirt or is
obstructed
Action to take:
If the warning light (orange) flashes, stop
the vehicle in a safe place, push the park
button to engage the P (Park) position
and turn the engine off. Clean the radar
cover on the front of the vehicle with a
soft cloth, and restart the engine. If the
warning light continues to illuminate,
have the I-FCW system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. When driving on roads with limited
road structures or buildings (for ex-
ample, long bridges, deserts, snow
fields, driving next to long walls)
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the I-FCW system will resume auto- matically.SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the I-FCW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, the AEB system warning light
(orange) will illuminate and the "Malfunc-
tion" warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take:
If the warning light (orange) illuminates,
stop the vehicle in a safe location. Turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If
the warning light continues to illuminate,
have the I-FCW system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
DA system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The I–DA system is only a warning
to inform the driver of a potential
lack of driver attention or drowsi-
ness. It will not steer the vehicle
or prevent loss of control.
. The I–DA system does not detect
and provide an alert of the dri-
ver’s lack of attention or fatigue
in every situation.
. It is the driver’s responsibility to:
— Stay alert.
— Drive safely.
— Keep the vehicle in the travel- ing lane.
— Be in control of the vehicle at all times.
— Avoid driving when tired.
— Avoid distractions (texting, etc). The I–DA system helps alert the driver if
the system detects a lack of attention or
driving fatigue.
The system monitors driving style and
steering behavior over a period of time,
and it detects changes from the normal
pattern. If the system detects that driver
attention is decreasing over a period of
time, the system uses audible and visual
warnings to suggest that the driver take a
break.
