ness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected a vehicle when the driver
activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into
the detection zone after the driver activates the
turn signal, then only the BSW indicator light
flashes and no chime sounds. (See ªBSW
driving situationsº (P.5-20).)
The BSW system is automatically turned on
when the engine is started and the BSW ON
indicator light
*1on the switch illuminates. You
can turn the BSW system off by pushing the
BSW switch on the instrumental panel.
NOTE:
If you continue to push and hold the BSW
switch from off to on for over 4 seconds, a
chime will sound. This will change the
default status of the BSW system to OFF
so that this system will not automatically
turn on when the engine is started. If this
procedure is repeated, the default status
will return to ON.
BSW temporarily not availableGUID-6D4D6EF8-1DF9-4D89-8011-E54A25724E70. When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
beep will sound and the BSW system
warning light will blink. The BSW system is
not available until the condition no longer
exists. 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 condition no longer exists, the
BSW system will resume automatically.
If the warning light continues to blink, have the
BSW system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
BSW malfunctionGUID-1F7A26C5-A202-469B-81D0-8B3F6C47D612When the BSW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a beep will sound and
the BSW system warning light will illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location and place the
shift in the P (Park) position. Turn the engine off
and restart the engine.
If the warning light continues to illuminate, have
the BSW system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
BSW SYSTEM PRECAUTIONSGUID-3DDA042B-4A54-436D-8806-7EA18999A1CB
WARNING
.
The radar sensors may not be able
to detect and activate BSW when
certain objects are present such as: Ð Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
Ð Vehicles such as motorcycles,
low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles
Ð Oncoming vehicles
Ð Vehicles remaining in the detec- tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop
Ð A vehicle merging into an adja- cent lane at a speed approxi-
mately the same as your vehicle
Ð A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind
Ð A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly
See also ªBSW driving situationsº
(P.5-20) for the situations in which
the radar sensors may not be able
to detect vehicle(s) .
. The BSW system may not provide a
warning for vehicles that pass the
detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensors detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When

Tire wear and damageGUID-A43C4E26-3367-4FA1-B45A-ADEC0212A0551.Wear indicator

WARNING
.Tires should be periodically in-
spected for wear, cracking, bul-
ging or objects caught in the
tread. If excessive wear, cracks,
bulging or deep cuts are found,
the tire(s) should be replaced. .
The original tires have built-in
tread wear indicators. When
wear indicators are visible, the
tire(s) should be replaced.
. Tires degrade with age and use.
Have tires, including the spare,
over 6 years old checked by a
qualified technician, because
some tire damage may not be
obvious. Replace the tires as
necessary to prevent tire failure
and possible personal injury.
. Improper service of the spare
tire may result in serious perso-
nal injury. If it is necessary to
repair the spare tire, contact a
NISSAN dealer.
. For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to ªImportant
Tire Safety Informationº (US) or
ªTire Safety Informationº (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
Replacing wheels and tiresGUID-4F418467-44EC-486D-947C-EDD2EE0CF562When replacing a tire, use the same size, tread
design, speed rating and load carrying capacity
as originally equipped. (See ªSpecificationsº
(P.9-7) for recommended types and sizes of
tires and wheels.)
WARNING
. The use of tires other than those
recommended or the mixed use of
tires of different brands, construc-
tion (bias, bias-belted or radial) , or
tread patterns can adversely affect
the ride, braking, handling, ground
clearance, body-to-tire clearance,
tire chain clearance, speedometer
calibration, headlight aim and bum-
per height. Some of these effects
may lead to accidents and could
result in serious personal injury.
. If your vehicle was originally
equipped with 4 tires that were the
same size and you are only repla-
cing 2 of the 4 tires, install the new
tires on the rear axle. Placing new
tires on the front axle may cause
loss of vehicle control in some
driving conditions and cause an

4.2 bar) . Always keep the pressure
of the full size spare tire (if so
equipped) at the recommended
pressure for standard tires, as in-
dicated on the Tire and Loading
Information label.
. With the TEMPORARY USE ONLY
spare tire installed do not drive your
vehicle at speeds faster than 50
MPH (80 km/h) .
. When driving on roads covered with
snow or ice, the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire should be used on
the rear wheels and original tire
used on the front wheels (drive
wheels) . Use tire chains only on
the front (original) tires.
. Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire will wear at a faster
rate than the standard tire. Replace
the spare tire as soon as the tread
wear indicators appear.
. Do not use the spare tire on other
vehicles.
. Do not use more than one spare tire
at the same time.
. Do not tow a trailer while the
TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire is installed.
CAUTION
.
Do not use tire chains on a TEM-
PORARY USE ONLY spare tire. Tire
chains will not fit properly and may
cause damage to the vehicle.
. Because the TEMPORARY USE
ONLY spare tire is smaller than the
original tire, ground clearance is
reduced. To avoid damage to the
vehicle, do not drive over obstacles.
Also do not drive the vehicle
through an automatic car wash
since it may get caught.
