NISSAN PATHFINDER 2014 R52 / 4.G Owners Manual

CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
AVAILABLE VIEWS
WARNING
●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a refer-
ence only when the vehicle is on a
paved, level surface. The distance
viewed on the monitor may be different
than the actual distance between the
vehicle and displayed objects.
● If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
● When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects. ●
Objects in the rearview will appear visu-
ally opposite than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course lines and the actual
course line.
● The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width
and course.
● The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right, because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
Front and rearview
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width
and distance to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
A, are displayed on the moni-
tor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body:
● Red line
1: approximately 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
● Yellow line
2: approximately 3 ft (1 m)
● Green line
3: approximately 7 ft (2 m)
● Green line
4: approximately 10 ft (3 m)

Vehicle width guide lines5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines
6:
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.
The front view will not be displayed when the
vehicle speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h). NOTE:
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90 de-
grees or less from the neutral position,
both the right and left predictive course
lines
6are displayed. When the steering
wheel turns about 90 degrees or more, a
line is displayed only on the opposite side
of the turn.
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 differs from the
actual distance.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
2are
indicated in black.
Rearview
SAA1896LHA2547
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-31

After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the non-viewable area
2is highlighted
in yellow for three seconds after the bird’s-eye
view is displayed. In addition, the non-viewable
corners are displayed in red and blink for the first
three seconds
3to remind the driver to be
cautious.
WARNING
● Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap-
pear further than the actual distance
because the bird’s-eye view is a pseudo
view that is processed by combining the
views from the cameras on the outside
mirrors, the front and the rear of the
vehicle.
● Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
● Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
● The view of the bird’s-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters. ●
A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment
will increase as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
● Tire angle display does not indicate the
actual tire angle.
Front-side view
Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the width and the front
end of the vehicle are displayed on the monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line
1shows the front part
of the vehicle.
The side-of-vehicle line
2shows the vehicle
width including the outside mirror.
The extensions
3of both the front1and side
2lines are shown with a green dotted line.
The rear sonar indicator will appear when the rear
of the vehicle moves closer to an object
4.

CAUTION
●The turn signal light may look like the
side-of-vehicle line. This is not a
malfunction.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTIVE AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on
the hill is the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the monitor.
LHA1199
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-33

Backing up on a steep downhill
When backing up the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown farther than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on
the hill is the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is closer than it appears on the monitor.
Backing up near a projecting object
The predicted course linesAdo not touch the
object in the display. However, the vehicle may hit
the object if it projects over the actual backing up
course.
LHA1200LHA1201
4-34Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

There may be a small distance visible between
the vehicle and the object in the bird-eye view on
the display
B.
Backing up behind a projecting object
The positionCis shown farther than the position
Bin the display. However, the positionCis
actually at the same distance as the position
A.
The vehicle may hit the object when backing up to the position
Aif the object projects over the
actual backing up course.
HOW TO SWITCH THE DISPLAY
With the ignition switch in the ON position, press
the CAMERA button or move the shift lever to the
R (Reverse) position to operate the Around View
Monitor.
The Around View Monitor displays different split
screens views depending on the position of the
shift lever. Press the CAMERA button to switch
between the available views.
If the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position, the
available views are:
● Rearview/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Rearview/front-side view split screen
If the shift lever is in the P (Park) position, the
available views are: ● Front view/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Front view/front-side view split screen
The display automatically changes to the Around
View Monitor displaying front-view/bird’s-eye
view when: ● If the shift lever is in the D (Drive) position,
and the sonar detects the vehicle is ap-
proaching an object.
LHA2548LHA1202
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-35

The display will switch from the Around View
Monitor screen when:● When the shift lever is in the D (Drive) posi-
tion and the vehicle speed increases above
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h)
● When the sonar no longer detects an object
the screen will automatically switch back the
previously displayed screen.
● When a different screen is selected.
CAMERA AIDING SONAR (parking
sensor)
The sonar (parking sensor) sounds a tone to
inform the driver of obstacles near the bumper.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the dis-
tance guide lines in the front, front-wide, rear and
rear-wide views indicate different distances to
the object.
WARNING
●The sonar (parking sensor) is a conve-
nience feature. 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 move before parking.
● Read and understand the limitations of
the sonar (parking sensor) as contained
in this section.
● 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
performance or a false activation.
● This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid damaging the
vehicle.
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
LHA2549
4-36Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

●The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
● The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects:
– Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, glass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
● Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard. ●
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of
snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the
surface of the sonar sensors when
cleaning. If the sensors are covered, the
accuracy of the sonar function will be
diminished.
The system gives the tone for rear objects when
the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone sounds
intermittently. When the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the color of the indicator turns yellow
and the rate of the blinking and the rate of the
tone increase. When the vehicle is very close to
the object, the indicator stops blinking and turns
red, and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after three seconds
when an object is detected by only the corner
sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no longer
near the vehicle. In the below cases, the sonar will be turned back
on automatically:
● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
● When the CAMERA button is pressed and a
screen other than the camera view is shown
on the display.
● When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
● When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.

Monitor will automatically return to the pre-
vious screen three minutes after the CAM-
ERA button has been pressed with the shift
lever in a position other than the R (Reverse)
position.
● When the view is switched, the display im-
ages on the screen may be displayed in
some delay.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
● When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. This is not a malfunction. ●
The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
● The colors of objects on the Around View
Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects. This is not a malfunction.
● Objects on the Around View Monitor may
not be clear and the color of the object may
differ in a dark environment. This is not a
malfunction.
● There may be differences in sharpness be-
tween each camera view of the bird’s-eye
view.
● If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the cam-
era, the Around View Monitor may not dis-
play objects clearly. Clean the camera.
