To turn on the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, push and hold the
ProPILOT Assist switch
for longer than
about 1.5 seconds.
When pushing the ProPILOT Assist switch
on, the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode display and indicators are
displayed in the vehicle information dis-
play. After you hold the ProPILOT Assist
switch on for longer than about 1.5
seconds, the ICC system display turns
off. The cruise indicator appears. You can
now set your desired cruising speed.
Pushing the ProPILOT Assist switch again will turn the system completely off. When
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position, the system is also automatically
turned off.
To use the ICC system again, quickly push
and release the ProPILOT Assist switch
(vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode) or push and hold it (conventional
cruise control mode) again to turn it on.
WARNING
To avoid accidentally engaging
cruise control, make sure to turn
the ProPILOT Assist switch off when
not using the ICC system.

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.
WAF0641XExample
I-DA SYSTEM OPERATION
If the system detects driver fatigue or that
driver attention is decreasing, the mes-
sage “Take a Break?” appears in the
vehicle information display and a chime
sounds when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 37 MPH (60 km/h).
The system continuously monitors driver
attention and can provide multiple warn-
ings per trip.
The system resets and starts reassessing
driving style and steering behavior when
the ignition switch is cycled from the ON
to the OFF position and back to the ON
position.

4. Place the ignition switch in the OFFposition.
WARNING
.If the engine is not running or is
turned off while driving, the
power assist for the steering will
not work. Steering will be harder
to operate.
. When the electric power steering
warning light illuminates with the
engine running, the power assist
for the steering will cease opera-
tion. You will still have control of
the vehicle but the steering will
be harder to operate.
The electric power steering is designed to
provide power assist while driving to
operate the steering wheel with light
force.
When SPORT mode is selected, the steer-
ing wheel effort is moderately increased
for a sporty feel. (See “SPORT mode” (P.5-
33).)
When the steering wheel is operated
repeatedly or continuously while parking
or driving at a very low speed, the power
assist for the steering wheel will be
reduced. This is to prevent overheating
of the electric power steering and protect
it from getting damaged. While the power assist is reduced, steering wheel opera-
tion will become heavy. If the steering
wheel operation is still performed, the
electric power steering may stop and the
electric power steering warning light
will illuminate. In a safe location, stop the
engine and place the ignition switch in
the OFF position. When the temperature
of the electric power steering goes down,
the power assist level will return to
normal. Avoid repeating such steering
wheel operations that could cause the
electric power steering to overheat.
You may hear a noise when the steering
wheel is operated quickly. However, this is
not a malfunction.
If the electric power steering warning
light illuminates while the engine is run-
ning, it may indicate the electric power
steering is not functioning properly and
may need servicing. Have the electric
power steering checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. (See “Electric power steer-
ing warning light” (P.2-17).)
When the electric power steering warning
light illuminates with the engine running,
the power assist for the steering will
cease operation. You will still have control
of the vehicle. However, greater steering
effort is needed, especially in sharp turns
and at low speeds.
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING

tion, it switches the ABS off and illumi-
nates the ABS warning light on the
instrument panel. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock
assistance.
If the ABS warning light illuminates during
the self-test or while driving, have the
vehicle checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Normal operation
The ABS operates at speeds above 3 to 6
MPH (5 to 10 km/h). The speed varies
according to road conditions.
When the ABS senses that one or more
wheels are close to locking up, the
actuator rapidly applies and releases
hydraulic pressure. This action is similar
to pumping the brakes very quickly. You
may feel a pulsation in the brake pedal
and hear a noise from under the hood or
feel a vibration from the actuator when it
is operating. This is normal and indicates
that the ABS is operating properly. How-
ever, the pulsation may indicate that road
conditions are hazardous and extra care
is required while driving.The Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) sys-
tem uses various sensors to monitor
driver inputs and vehicle motion. Under
certain driving conditions, the VDC sys-
tem helps to perform the following func-
tions.
.
Controls brake pressure to reduce
wheel slip on one slipping drive wheel
so power is transferred to a non
slipping drive wheel on the same axle.
. Controls brake pressure and engine
output to reduce drive wheel slip
based on vehicle speed (traction con-
trol function).
. Controls brake pressure at individual
wheels and engine output to help the
driver maintain control of the vehicle
in the following conditions:
— understeer (vehicle tends to not
follow the steered path despite
increased steering input)
— oversteer (vehicle tends to spin due to certain road or driving condi-
tions).
The VDC system can help the driver to
maintain control of the vehicle, but it
cannot prevent loss of vehicle control in
all driving situations.
When the VDC system operates, the slip
indicator light
in the instrument panel
flashes so note the following: .
The road may be slippery or the
system may determine some action
is required to help keep the vehicle on
the steered path.
. You may feel a pulsation in the brake
pedal and hear a noise or vibration
from under the hood. This is normal
and indicates that the VDC system is
working properly.
. Adjust your speed and driving to the
road conditions.
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the
slip indicator light
illuminates in the
instrument panel. The VDC system auto-
matically turns off.
The vehicle information display is used to
turn off the VDC system. The VDC off
indicator
illuminates to indicate the
VDC system is off. When the VDC system
is turned off, the VDC system still oper-
ates to prevent one drive wheel from
slipping by transferring power to a non
slipping drive wheel. The slip indicator
light
flashes if this occurs. All other
VDC functions are off, and the slip in-
dicator light
will not flash. The VDC
system is automatically reset to on when
the ignition switch is placed in the off
position then back to the on position.
See “Slip indicator light” (P.2-20) and
“Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) off indi-
cator light” (P.2-20).

Push the switch on to warn other drivers
when you must stop or park under
emergency conditions. All turn signal
lights will flash.
WARNING
.If stopping for an emergency, be
sure to move the vehicle well off
the road.
. Do not use the hazard warning
flashers while moving on the
highway unless unusual circum-
stances force you to drive so
slowly that your vehicle might
become a hazard to other traffic. .
Turn signals do not work when
the hazard warning flasher lights
are on.
The flasher can be actuated with the
ignition switch in any position.
Some state laws may prohibit the use of
the hazard warning flasher switch while
driving. In the event of a roadside emergency,
Roadside Assistance Service is available
to you. Please refer to your Warranty
Information Booklet (U.S.) or Warranty &
Roadside Assistance Information Booklet
(Canada) for details.
HAZARD WARNING FLASHER SWITCHCONNECTION TO ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

To shut off the engine in an emergency
situation while driving, perform the fol-
lowing procedure:
.Rapidly push the push-button ignition
switch 3 consecutive times in less
than 1.5 seconds, or
. Push and hold the push-button igni-
tion switch for more than 2 seconds.TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-
TEM (TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It
monitors tire pressure of all tires except
the spare. When the low tire pressure
warning light is lit, and the “Tire Pressure
Low - Add Air” warning message is
displayed in the vehicle information dis-
play, one or more of your tires is sig-
nificantly under-inflated. If the vehicle is
being driven with low tire pressure, the
TPMS will activate and warn you of it by
the low tire pressure warning light. This
system will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25
km/h). For more details, see “Warning
lights, indicator lights and audible remin-
ders” (P.2-13) and “Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)” (P.5-6).
WARNING
.If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneu-
vers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in ser-
ious personal injury. Check the
tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat. If
you have a flat tire, replace it with
a spare tire as soon as possible.
. Since the spare tire is not
equipped with the TPMS, when a
spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for ap-
proximately 1 minute. The light
will remain on after 1 minute.
Have your tires replaced and/or
TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for these
services.
. Replacing tires with those not
originally specified by NISSAN
could affect the proper operation

EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUT OFF FLAT TIRE

CAUTION
Do not keep the starter motor en-
gaged for more than 10 seconds. If
the engine does not start right away,
place the ignition switch in the OFF
position and wait 10 seconds before
trying again.
8. After starting your engine, carefully disconnect the negative cable and
then the positive cable (
???). Do not attempt to start the engine by
pushing.
CAUTION
.
Continuously Variable Transmis-
sion (CVT) models cannot be
push-started or tow-started. At-
tempting to do so may cause
transmission damage.
. Three-way catalyst equipped
models should not be started by
pushing since the three way cat-
alyst may be damaged.
. Never try to start the vehicle by
towing it; when the engine starts,
the forward surge could cause
the vehicle to collide with the
tow vehicle.
WARNING
.Never continue driving if your
vehicle overheats. Doing so could
cause a vehicle fire.
. Never open the hood if steam is
coming out.
. Never remove the radiator or
coolant reservoir cap while the
engine is hot. If the radiator or
coolant reservoir cap is removed
when the engine is hot, pressur-
ized hot water will spurt out and
possibly cause burning, scalding
or serious injury.
. If steam or coolant is coming
from the engine, stand clear of
the vehicle to prevent getting
burned.
. The engine cooling fan will start
at anytime when the coolant
temperature exceeds preset de-
grees.
. Be careful not to allow your
hands, hair, jewelry or clothing
to come into contact with, or to
get caught in the cooling fan or
drive belts.
