AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE
REARVIEW MIRROR (if so equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it automati-
cally dims during night time conditions and ac-
cording to the intensity of the headlights of the
vehicle following you. The automatic anti-glare
feature is activated when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.NOTE:
Do not hang any objects over the sensors
1or apply glass cleaner to the sensors.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensors, resulting in improper operation.
The indicator light
2will illuminate when the
automatic anti-glare feature is operating.
● To turn off the anti-glare feature, press
the

Bird’s-eye view
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead view of
the vehicle, which helps confirm the vehicle po-
sition and the predicted course to a parking
space.
The vehicle icon
1shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the distance between objects
viewed in the bird’s-eye view may differ some-
what from the actual vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
2are
indicated in black.
The non-viewable area
2is highlighted in yellow
for several seconds after the bird’s-eye view is displayed. It will be shown only the first time after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
The driver can check the direction and angle of
the tire on the display by the tire icon
3when
driving the vehicle forward or backward.
Predictive course lines (
4and5) indicate the
predictive course when operating the vehicle.
The predictive course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the steering wheel is turned.
The predictive course lines will move depending
on how much the steering wheel is turned and
will not be displayed while the steering wheel is in
the neutral position.
When the monitor displays the front view and the
steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less
from the neutral position, the two green predic-
tive course lines
4are shown in front of the
vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees
or more, one green predictive course line is
shown in front of the vehicle and the other green
predictive course line
5is shown at the side of
the vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predictive course lines are shown at the back of
the vehicle.

●The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such
as:
– When there is low contrast between background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of light.
– When strong light such as another vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such as when mirror
is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob- jects in the display is not changed.
● The MOD system might detect flowing
water droplets on the camera lens,
white smoke from the muffler, moving
shadows, etc.
● The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects. ●
If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sens-
ing zone may be altered and the MOD
system may not detect objects properly.
● When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.
Camera maintenance
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera,
the MOD system may not operate properly. Clean
the camera.

MOD (Moving Object Detection)
To turn the MOD system on or off, press and hold
the CAMERA button for more than 3 seconds.
VIEW MALFUNCTION
When the “!” icon is displayed on the screen,
there are abnormal conditions in the Around
View® Monitor. This will not hinder normal driving
operation but the system should be inspected by
a NISSAN dealer.

Additional information:● The TPMS does not monitor the tire
pressure of the spare tire.
● The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h). Also, this system may not detect a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example a
flat tire while driving) .
● The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure
is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h)
to activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure
gauge to check the tire pressure.
● The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warning
appears in the vehicle information display
when the low tire pressure warning light is
illuminated and low tire pressure is detected.
The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warning
turns off when the low tire pressure warning
light turns off.
● The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low
tire pressure warning light remains illumi-
nated. ●
The “Tire Pressure Low Add Air” warning
does not appear if the low tire pressure
warning light illuminates to indicate a TPMS
malfunction.
● Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside
temperature can lower the temperature of
the air inside the tire which can cause a
lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illumi-
nate. If the warning light illuminates, check
the tire pressure for all four tires.
● The Tire and Loading Information label (also
referred to as the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label) is located in the
driver’s door opening.
● You can also check the pressure of all tires
(except the spare tire) on the vehicle infor-
mation display screen. The order of the tire
pressure figures displayed on the screen
corresponds with the actual order of the tire
position.
For additional information, refer to “Low tire pres-
sure warning light” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section and “Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)” in the “In case of emergency”
section of this manual.

●When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be
indicated, the TPMS will not function
and the low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The light will remain on after 1 minute.
Contact your NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or
system resetting.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by NISSAN could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
● Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors.

1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheelwith both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
3. When appropriate, slowly release the accel- erator pedal to gradually slow the vehicle.
4. Gradually steer the vehicle to a safe location off the road and away from traffic if possible.
5. Lightly apply the brake pedal to gradually stop the vehicle.
6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and contact a roadside emergency service to
change the tire. For additional information,
refer to “Changing a flat tire” in the “In case
of emergency” section of this manual.DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND
DRIVING

●Do not drive across steep slopes. In-
stead drive either straight up or straight
down the slopes. Off-road vehicles can
tip over sideways much more easily
than they can forward or backward.
● Many hills are too steep for any vehicle.
If you drive up them, you may stall. If
you drive down them, you may not be
able to control your speed. If you drive
across them, you may roll over.
● Do not shift gears while driving on
downhill grades as this could cause
loss of control of the vehicle.
● Stay alert when driving to the top of a
hill. At the top there could be a drop-off
or other hazard that could cause an
accident.
● If your engine stalls or you cannot make
it to the top of a steep hill, never at-
tempt to turn around. Your vehicle could
tip or roll over. Always back straight
down in R (Reverse) gear and apply
brakes to control your speed.
● Heavy braking going down a hill could
cause your brakes to overheat and fade,
resulting in loss of control and an acci-
dent. Apply brakes lightly and use a low
gear to control your speed. ●
Unsecured cargo can be thrown around
when driving over rough terrain. Prop-
erly secure all cargo so it will not be
thrown forward and cause injury to you
or your passengers.
● Exceeding the roof rack capacity can
raise the center of gravity excessively
and affect the handling and stability of
the vehicle.
● Secure heavy loads in the cargo area as
far forward and as low as possible. Do
not equip the vehicle with tires larger
than specified in this manual. This could
cause your vehicle to roll over.
● Do not grip the inside or spokes of the
steering wheel when driving off-road.
The steering wheel could move sud-
denly and injure your hands. Instead
drive with your fingers and thumbs on
the outside of the rim.
● Before operating the vehicle, ensure
that the driver and all passengers have
their seat belts fastened.
● Always drive with the floor mats in place
as the floor may become hot. ●
Lower your speed when encountering
strong crosswinds. With a higher center
of gravity, your NISSAN is more affected
by strong side winds. Slower speeds
ensure better vehicle control.
● Do not drive beyond the performance
capability of the tires, even with AWD
engaged.
● For AWD equipped vehicles, do not at-
tempt to raise two wheels off the
ground and shift the transmission to
any drive or reverse position with the
engine running. Doing so may result in
drivetrain damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could result in
serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.
Starting and driving5-9

●The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an
adjacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
● The radar sensors are designed to ig-
nore most stationary objects, however
objects such as guardrails, walls, foli-
age and parked vehicles may occasion-
ally be detected. The system malfunc-
tion warning message with the blind
spot indicator (orange) will appear in
the vehicle information display. This is a
normal driving condition.
● Severe weather or road spray condi-
tions may reduce the ability of the radar
to detect other vehicles.
● Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may
not be heard.
BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS
Another vehicle approaching from
behind
Illustration 1: The Blind Spot Warning indicator
light illuminates if a vehicle enters the detection
zone from behind in an adjacent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is traveling
much faster than your vehicle, the indicator light
may not illuminate before the detected vehicle is
beside your vehicle. Always use the side and rear mirrors and turn and look in the direction your
vehicle will move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes.

Entering from the side
Illustration 7:The Blind Spot Warning indicator
light illuminates if a vehicle enters the detection
zone from either side.
NOTE:
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. Illustration 8:
Illustration 8: If the driver acti-
vates the turn signal while another vehicle is in the
detection zone the Blind Spot Warning indicator
light flashes and a chime will sound twice.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the
Blind Spot Warning indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when another ve-
hicle is detected.

ing lot aisle.
– Illustration e: When the angle formed by your vehicle and approaching ve-
hicle is small
● The following conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice build up on the vehicle
– Frost build up on the vehicle
– Dirt build up on the vehicle
● Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material) , install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles
● Do not use the RCTA systems when
towing a trailer. ●
Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may
not be heard.
If the radar detects an approaching vehicle from
the side, the system chimes a sound (single
beep) and the BSW indicator light on the side the
vehicle is approaching from flashes.
NOTE:● In the case of several vehicles approaching
in a row (Illustration 1) or in the opposite
direction (Illustration 2) , a chime may not be
sounded by the RCTA system after the first
vehicle passes the sensors.
