WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
BSW system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The BSW system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving proce-
dure and is not designed to
prevent contact with vehicles or
objects. When changing lanes, al-
ways use the side and rear mir-
rors and turn and look in the
direction your vehicle will move
to ensure it is safe to change
lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW system.
The BSW system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when
changing lanes.
WAF0414X
The BSW system uses radar sensorsinstalled near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane.
SSD1030Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the
detection zone shown as illustrated. This
detection zone starts from the outside
mirror of your vehicle and extends ap-
proximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear
bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)
sideways.
When the turn signal is activated, the
detection zone may extend more than
approximately 10 ft (3.0 m).

BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 MPH (32 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light
illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, thesystem chimes (twice) and the side in-
dicator light flashes. The side indicator
light continues to flash until the detected
vehicle leaves the detection zone.
The side indicator light illuminates for a
few seconds when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
The brightness of the side indicator light
is adjusted automatically depending on
the brightness of the ambient light.

HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE BSW
SYSTEM
Perform the following steps to enable or
disable the BSW system.1. Push the
button until “Set-
tings” appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display and then push the scroll
dial. Use the scroll dial to select “Driver
Assistance”. Then push the scroll dial.
2. Select “Blind Spot” and push the scroll dial. 3. Select “Warning (BSW)” and push the
scroll dial.
NOTE:
The system will retain current settings
in the vehicle information display even
if the engine is restarted.
BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the BSW system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
. The BSW system cannot detect all
vehicles under all conditions.
. The radar sensors may not be
able to detect and activate BSW
when certain objects are present
such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
— Vehicles such as motorcycles,
low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles.
— Oncoming vehicles.
— Vehicles remaining in the de- tection zone when you accel-
erate from a stop.
Starting and driving5-59

5-60Starting and driving
— A vehicle merging into anadjacent lane at a speed ap-
proximately the same as your
vehicle.
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
— A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly.
— A vehicle that passes through the detection zone quickly.
— When overtaking several vehi- cles in a row, the vehicles after
the first vehicle may not be
detected if they are traveling
close together.
. The radar sensor’s 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 driving in a
narrow lane, the radar sensors
may detect vehicles driving two
lanes away.
. The radar sensors are designed
to ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guard-
rails, walls, foliage and parked
vehicles may occasionally be de-
tected. This is a normal operation condition.
. The following conditions may re-
duce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles:
— Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the
vehicle
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install ac-
cessories or apply additional
paint near the radar sensors.
These conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
. Excessive noise (for example,
audio system volume, open vehi-
cle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be
heard.BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS

turn signal while another vehicle is in the
detection zone, then the system chimes
(twice) and the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
.The radar sensors may not detect
vehicles which are approaching ra-
pidly from behind.

turn signal while another vehicle is in the
detection zone, then the system chimes
(twice) and the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
.When overtaking several vehicles in
a row, the vehicles after the first
vehicle may not be detected if they
are traveling close together.
. The radar sensors may not detect
slower moving vehicles if they are
passed quickly.
. If the driver activates the turn signal
before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will
flash but no chime will sound when the other vehicle is detected.

Illustration 6: If the driver activates the
turn signal while another vehicle is in the

(twice) and the side indicator light flashes.
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.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
chime will sound and the “Unavailable
Side Radar Obstruction” warning mes-
sage will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
The system is 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.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention (I-
BSI) (if so equipped) and the Rear Cross
Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems will also
stop working.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the system will resume automati-
cally.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSW system malfunctions, it will
be turned off automatically, the BSW
indicator illuminates and the “Not Avail-
able System Malfunction” warning mes-
sage will appear in the vehicle
information display.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention (I-
BSI) (if so equipped) and Rear Cross
Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems will also
stop working.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If
the message continues to appear, have
the BSW system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
