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.

4WD shift indicator
4WD SHIFT INDICATOR
The 4WD shift indicator is displayed in the
vehicle information display.
The indicator should turn off within 1
second after placing the ignition switch
in the ON position.
While the engine is running, the 4WD shift
indicator will illuminate the position se-
lected by the 4WD shift switch. (See the
4WD shift procedure list shown in the
“NISSAN all-mode 4WD® system” (P.5-125).)
.The 4WD shift indicator may blink
while shifting from one drive mode
to the other. When the shifting is
completed, the 4WD shift indicator will come on. If the indicator does
not come on immediately, make
sure the area around the vehicle is
safe, and drive the vehicle straight,
accelerate or decelerate or move the
vehicle in reverse, then shift the 4WD
shift switch.
. If the 4WD warning light comes on, the
4WD shift indicator turns off.
4WD WARNING LIGHT
Warning light Comes on or
blinks when:
Illuminates There is a mal-
function in the 4WD system
Blinks ra- pidly The transfer
case oil tem-
perature is ab- normally high
Blinks slowly The difference
in wheel rota- tion is large
The 4WD warning light is located in the
meter.
The 4WD warning light comes on when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position. It turns off soon after the engine
is started.
If any malfunction occurs in the 4WD
system when the ignition switch is placed
in the ON position, the 4WD warning light

will either remain illuminated or blink.
If the 4WD warning light comes on, the
4WD shift indicator turns off.
High-temperature transfer case oil makes
the 4WD warning light blink rapidly (about
twice per second). If the warning light
blinks rapidly during operation, stop the
vehicle in a safe place immediately. Then
if the light turns off after a while, you can
continue driving.
A large difference between the diameters
of front and rear wheels will make the
4WD warning light blink slowly (about
once per two seconds). Change the 4WD
shift switch to AUTO and do not drive fast.
CAUTION
.If the 4WD warning light comes
on or blinks slowly during opera-
tion or rapidly after stopping the
vehicle for a while, have your
vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
. Shifting between 4HI and 4LO is
not recommended when the 4WD
warning light turns on.
. When the 4WD warning light
comes on, the 2WD mode may be engaged even if the 4WD shift
switch is in AUTO or 4H. Be
especially careful when driving. If
corresponding parts are malfunc-
tioning, the 4WD mode will not be
engaged even if the 4WD shift
switch is shifted.
. Do not drive the vehicle in the 4HI
or 4LO position on dry hard sur-
face roads. Driving on dry, hard
surfaces in 4HI or 4LO may cause
unnecessary noise, tire wear and
increased fuel consumption.
If the 4WD warning light turns on
when driving on dry hard surface
roads:
— in the AUTO or 4HI position,
shift the 4WD shift switch to
AUTO.
— in the 4LO position, stop the vehicle and shift the transmis-
sion shift lever to the N (Neu-
tral) position and shift the
4WD shift switch to AUTO.
. If the 4WD warning light is still on
after the above operation, have
your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service. .
The transfer case may be da-
maged if you continue driving
with the warning light blinking.

WARNING
.Never rely solely on the hill start
assist system to prevent the ve-
hicle from moving backward on a
hill. Always drive carefully and
attentively. Depress the brake
pedal when the vehicle is stopped
on a steep hill. Be especially care-
ful when stopped on a hill on
frozen or muddy roads. Failure
to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards may result in a loss of
control of the vehicle and possi-
ble serious injury or death.
. The hill start assist system is not
designed to hold the vehicle at a
standstill on a hill. Depress the
brake pedal when the vehicle is
stopped on a steep hill. Failure to
do so may cause the vehicle to
roll backwards and may result in
a collision or serious personal
injury.
. The hill start assist system may
not prevent the vehicle from roll-
ing backwards on a hill under all
load or road conditions. Always
be prepared to depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards. Failure to do so may result in a collision or
serious personal injury.
The hill start assist system automatically
keeps the brakes applied to help prevent
the vehicle from rolling backwards in the
time it takes the driver to release the
brake pedal and apply the accelerator
when the vehicle is stopped on a hill.
The hill start assist system will operate
automatically under the following condi-
tions:
. The transmission is shifted to a for-
ward or reverse gear.
. The vehicle is stopped completely on a
hill by applying the brake.
The maximum holding time is 2 seconds.
After 2 seconds the vehicle will begin to
roll back and the hill start assist system
will stop operating completely.
The hill start assist system will not
operate when the transmission is shifted
to the N (Neutral) or P (Park) position or
on a flat and level road.
When the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light illuminates in the meter, the
hill start assist system will not operate.
(See “Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders” (P.2-11).)
HILL START ASSIST SYSTEM

SSD0622
The sonar system sounds a tone to
inform the driver of obstacles near the
bumper.
When the sonar system is turned on, the
sonar view will automatically appear in
the touch screen display when the cam-
era is activated.
WARNING
.The sonar system is a conveni-
ence but it is not a substitute for
proper parking.
. The driver is always responsible
for safety during parking and other maneuvers. Always look
around and check that it is safe
to do so before parking.
. Read and understand the limita-
tions of the sonar system as
contained in this section. The
colors of the sonar indicator in-
dicates different distances to the
object.
. Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air
brakes or a pneumatic drill may
affect the function of the system;
this may include reduced perfor- mance or a false activation.
. The sonar system is designed as
an aid to the driver in detecting
large stationary objects to help
avoid damaging the vehicle.
. The sonar system is not designed
to prevent contact with small or
moving objects. Always move
slowly. The system will not detect
small objects below the bumper,
and may not detect objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
. The sonar system may not detect
the following objects: fluffy ob-
jects such as snow, cloth, cotton,
glass-wool, etc.; thin objects such
as rope, wire and chain, etc.; or
wedge-shaped objects.
. The front and rear sonar sensors
detect the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle by de-
tecting the sound wave reflected
from the surface of an obstacle.
When there is a sound such as
horn, or an ultrasonic source
(such as sonar of other vehicles)
around the vehicle, the sonar
sensors may not detect objects
properly.
