RCTA SYSTEM OPERATION
The RCTA system can help alert the driver of an
approaching vehicle when the driver is backing
out of a parking space.
When the shift position is in R (Reverse) and the
vehicle speed is less than approximately 5 MPH
(8 km/h), the RCTA system is operational.The RCTA system uses radar sensors
1in-
stalled on both sides near the rear bumper to
detect an approaching vehicle.
The radar sensors
1detect an approaching
vehicle from up to approximately 66 ft. (20 m)
away.
If the radar detects a vehicle approaching from
the side, the system gives visual and audible
warnings.
How to enable/disable the RCTA
system
Perform the following steps to enable or disable
the RCTA system. 1. Press the
button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display. Use
the
button to select “Driver Assis-
tance”. Then press the OK button.
2. Select “Blind Spot” and press the OK but- ton.
NOTE:
The RCTA system is integrated into the
BSW system. There is not a separate selec-
tion in the vehicle information display for
the RCTA system. When the BSW is dis-
abled, the RCTA system is also disabled.

RCTA temporarily not available
When radar blockage is detected, the system will
be deactivated automatically. The “Side Radar
Obstruction” warning message will appear and
the blind spot indicator (white) will blink in the
vehicle information display.
The systems are not available until the conditions
no longer exist.
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, the
system will resume automatically.
RCTA malfunction
If the RCTA system malfunctions, the system will
turn off automatically. The system malfunction
warning message with the blind spot indicator
(orange) will appear in the vehicle information
display. If the BSW system fails, the RCTA sys-
tem will also fail.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, turn the engineoff and restart the engine. If the message contin-
ues to appear, have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.

PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE
CONTROL
1. RES/+ switch
2. SET/- switch
3. ON/OFF switch
4. CANCEL switch● If the cruise control system malfunctions, it
cancels automatically. The CRUISE indica-
tor light in the vehicle information display
then blinks to warn the driver. ●
If the CRUISE indicator light blinks, turn the
cruise control switch off and have the sys-
tem checked by a NISSAN dealer.
● The CRUISE indicator light may blink when
the cruise control switch is turned ON while
pushing the RES/+ switch, SET/- switch, or
CANCEL switch. To properly set the cruise
control system, use the following proce-
dures.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driving
under the following conditions:
● When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed.
● In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in
speed.
● On winding or hilly roads.
● On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.) .
● In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed be-
tween 25 - 89 MPH (40 - 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
ON·OFF switch ON. The CRUISE indicator light
in the vehicle information display will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to
the desired speed, push the SET/– switch and
release it. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Your vehicle maintains the set speed.
● To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previously
set speed.
● The vehicle may not maintain the set speed
when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods.
● Push the CANCEL button.
● Tap the brake pedal.
● Push the ON·OFF switch off. The CRUISE
indicator light in the vehicle information dis-
play goes out.

ICC OPERATION
Always pay attention to the operation of the ve-
hicle and be ready to manually control the proper
following distance. The ICC system may not be
able to maintain the selected distance between
vehicles (following distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances.
The Intelligent Cruise Control uses a sensor
A
located on the front of the vehicle to detect
vehicles traveling ahead. The sensor generally
detects the signals returned from the vehicle
ahead. Therefore, if the sensor cannot detect the
reflection from the vehicle ahead, the ICC system
may not maintain the selected distance.The following are some conditions in which the
sensor cannot detect the signals:
● When snow or road spray from traveling
vehicles reduces the sensor’s detection.
● When excessively heavy baggage is loaded
in the rear seat or the trunk of your vehicle.
The ICC system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s operation within the limitation
of the system. When the sensor area is covered
with dirt or is obstructed, the system will auto-
matically be canceled. If the sensor area is cov-
ered with ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl
bag, etc., the ICC system may not detect them. In
these instances, the ICC system may not cancel
and may not be able to maintain the selected
following distance from the vehicle ahead. Be
sure to check and clean the sensor area around
the distance sensor regularly.
The ICC system is designed to maintain a se-
lected distance and reduce the speed to match
the slower vehicle ahead. The system will decel-
erate the vehicle as necessary and if the vehicle
ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to
a standstill. However, the ICC system can only
apply up to 40% of the vehicle’s total braking
power. This system should only be used when traffic
conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly
constant or when vehicle speeds change gradu-
ally. If a vehicle moves into the traveling lane
ahead or if a vehicle traveling ahead rapidly de-
celerates, the distance between vehicles may
become closer because the ICC system cannot
decelerate the vehicle quickly enough. If this oc-
curs, the ICC system will sound a warning chime
and blink the system display to notify the driver to
take necessary action.
The system will cancel and a warning chime will
sound if the speed is below approximately
15 MPH (24 km/h) and a vehicle is not detected
ahead. The system will also disengage when the
vehicle goes above the maximum set speed.
For additional information, refer to “Approach
warning” in this section.
The following items are controlled in the ICC
system:
● When there are no vehicles traveling ahead,
the ICC system maintains the speed set by
the driver. The set speed range is between
approximately 20 and 90 MPH (32 and
144 km/h).

System operation
WARNING
Normally when controlling the distance to
a vehicle ahead, this system automatically
accelerates or decelerates your vehicle
according to the speed of the vehicle
ahead. Depress the accelerator to prop-
erly accelerate your vehicle when accel-
eration is required for a lane change. De-
press the brake pedal when deceleration
is required to maintain a safe distance to
the vehicle ahead due to its sudden brak-
ing or if a vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert
when using the ICC system.
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed based
on the road conditions.
The ICC system displays the set speed.
Vehicle detected ahead:
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead, the
ICC system decelerates the vehicle by control-
ling the throttle and applying the brakes to match
the speed of a slower vehicle ahead. The system
then controls the vehicle speed based on the
speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the driver
selected distance.
LSD2288
5-42Starting and driving

The stoplights of the vehicle come on when
braking is performed by the ICC system.
When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the vehicle
ahead detection indicator comes on. The ICC
system will also display the set speed and se-
lected distance.
Vehicle ahead not detected:
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead, the
ICC system gradually accelerates your vehicle to
resume the previously set vehicle speed. The ICC
system then maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected the vehicle
ahead detection indicator turns off.
If a vehicle ahead appears during acceleration to
the set vehicle speed or any time the ICC system
is in operation, the system controls the distance
to that vehicle.
When a vehicle is no longer detected under
approximately 15 MPH (24 km/h), the system will
be canceled.When passing another vehicle,
the set speed
indicator
Bwill flash when the vehicle speed
exceeds the set speed. The vehicle detect indi-
cator will turn off when the area ahead of the
vehicle is open. When the pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the previously set speed.
Even though your vehicle speed is set in the ICC
system, you can depress the accelerator pedal
when it is necessary to accelerate your vehicle
rapidly.
How to change the set vehicle speed
To cancel the preset speed, use any of these
methods:
● Push the CANCEL switch. The set vehicle
speed indicator will go out.
● Tap the brake pedal. The set vehicle speed
indicator will go out.
● Turn the CRUISE ON/OFF switch off. The
ICC indicators will go out.
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following methods:
● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the SET/COAST (–) switch.
● Push and hold the RES/ACCELERATE (+)
switch. The set vehicle speed will increase
by approximately 5 MPH (5 km/h for
Canada) .
● Push, then quickly release the
RES/ACCELERATE (+) switch. Each time
you do this, the set speed will increase by
approximately 1 MPH (1 km/h for Canada) .

Approach warning
If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle ahead
due to rapid deceleration of that vehicle or if
another vehicle cuts in, the system warns the
driver with the chime and ICC system display.
Decelerate by depressing the brake pedal to
maintain a safe vehicle distance if:● The chime sounds.
● The vehicle ahead detection indicator blinks.
The warning chime may not sound in some cases
when there is a short distance between vehicles.
Some examples are: ● When the vehicles are traveling at the same
speed and the distance between vehicles is
not changing
● When the vehicle ahead is traveling faster
and the distance between vehicles is in-
creasing
● When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when: ● The vehicle approaches other vehicles that
are parked or moving slowly.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed, overrid-
ing the system. NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound
and the system display may blink when the
ICC sensor detects objects on the side of
the vehicle or on the side of the road. This
may cause the ICC system to decelerate or
accelerate the vehicle. The ICC sensor may
detect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding roads, narrow roads, hilly
roads, or when entering or exiting a curve.
In these cases you will have to manually
control the proper distance ahead of your
vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driving
position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle condition
(for example, if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage) .
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following conditions
and the control is automatically canceled.
● When the vehicle ahead is not detected and
your vehicle is traveling below the speed of
15 MPH (24 km/h)
● When the system judges the vehicle is at
standstill ●
When the shift lever is not in the D (Drive) or
Manual mode
● When the parking brake is applied
● When the VDC system is turned off
● When ABS or VDC (including the traction
control system) operates
● When a wheel slips
