FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB with pedestrian detection system.
Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
●The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem cannot detect all vehicles or pedes-
trians under all conditions.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem does not detect the following
objects:
– Small pedestrians (including small children) , animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or using mobile transport such as scooters,
child-operated toys, or skateboards.
– Pedestrians who are seated or other- wise not in a full upright standing or
walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside ●
The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem has some performance limitations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the vehi- cle’s path, the FEB with pedestrian
detection system will not function
when the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 50 mph
(80 km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the FEB with pedestrian detection system will
not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 mph (10km/h) .
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem will not function for pedestrians in
darkness or in tunnels, even if there is
street lighting in the area.
● For pedestrians, the FEB with pedes-
trian detection system will not issue the
first warning and will not push the ac-
celerator pedal up.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if the vehicle
ahead is narrow (for example a
motorcycle) . ●
The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if speed differ-
ence between the two vehicles is too
small.
● The radar sensor FEB with pedestrian
detection system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle ahead in the
following conditions:
o Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
o Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
o Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
o If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
o Interference by other radar sources.
o The camera area of windshield is fogged up, or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
Starting and driving5-77

o Strong light (for example, sunlight orhigh beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera. Strong light
causes the area around the pedes-
trian to be cast in a shadow, making
it difficult to see.
o A sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or a shaded
area or lightning flashes.)
o The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having clothing
color or pattern which is similar to
the background.
o The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable due to the
pedestrian transporting luggage,
wearing bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories.
● The system performance may degrade
in the following conditions:
o The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
o The vehicle is driven on a slope.
o Excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the trunk room of
your vehicle. ●
The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor (radar and camera)’s
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect blockage of
sensor areas covered by ice, snow or
stickers, for example. In these cases,
the system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you check,
clean and clear sensor areas regularly.
● In some road and traffic conditions, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, de-
press the accelerator pedal to override
the system.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.

During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),
follow these recommendations to obtain
maximum engine performance and ensure
the future reliability and economy of your
new vehicle. Failure to follow these rec-
ommendations may result in shortened
engine life and reduced engine
performance.● Avoid driving for long periods at constant
speed, either fast or slow, and do not run the
engine over 4,000 RPM.
● Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
● Avoid quick starts.
● Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
● Do not tow a trailer for the first 500 mi
(805 km) . Your engine, axle or other parts
could be damaged. Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient Driving
Tips to help you achieve the most fuel economy
from your vehicle.
1. Use Smooth Accelerator and Brake
Pedal Application
● Avoid rapid starts and stops.
● Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application whenever possible.
● Maintain constant speed while commut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain Constant Speed
● Look ahead to try and anticipate and mini-
mize stops.
● Synchronizing your speed with traffic
lights allows you to reduce your number
of stops.
● Maintaining a steady speed can minimize
red light stops and improve fuel effi-
ciency.
BREAK-IN SCHEDULE FUEL EFFICIENT DRIVING TIPS
5-82Starting and driving

3.Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
● Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to open windows to cool the vehicle
due to reduced engine load.
● Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to use A/C to cool the vehicle due to
increased aerodynamic drag.
● Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling load.
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
● Observing the speed limit and not ex-
ceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where legally
allowed) can improve fuel efficiency due
to reduced aerodynamic drag.
● Maintaining a safe following distance be-
hind other vehicles reduces unnecessary
braking.
● Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
● Select a gear range suitable to road con-
ditions. 5.
Use Cruise Control
● Using cruise control during highway driv-
ing helps maintain a steady speed.
● Cruise control is particularly effective in
providing fuel savings when driving on flat
terrains.
6. Plan for the Shortest Route
● Utilize a map or navigation system to de-
termine the best route to save time.
7. Avoid Idling
● Shutting off your hybrid system when safe
for stops exceeding 30–60 seconds
saves fuel and reduces emissions.
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
● Automated passes permit drivers to use
special lanes to maintain cruising speed
through the toll and avoid stopping and
starting. 9.
Winter Warm Up
● Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel
economy.
● Vehicles typically need no more than
30 seconds of idling at start-up to effec-
tively circulate the engine oil before driv-
ing.
● Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating
temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling.
10. Keeping your Vehicle Cool
● Park your vehicle in a covered parking
area or in the shade whenever possible.
● When entering a hot vehicle, opening the
windows will help to reduce the inside
temperature faster, resulting in reduced
demand on your A/C system.
Starting and driving5-83

●Keep your engine tuned up.
● Follow the recommended scheduled main-
tenance.
● Keep the tires inflated to the correct pres-
sure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
● Keep all the wheels in correct alignment.
Improper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
● Use the recommended viscosity engine oil.
For additional information, refer to “Engine
oil and oil filter recommendations” in the
“Technical and consumer information” sec-
tion of this manual. If any malfunction occurs in the AWD system
while the engine is running, the master warning
light will come on.
The master warning light may illuminate while
trying to free a stuck vehicle due to high pow-
ertrain oil temperature. The driving mode may
change to 2WD. AUTO mode may change to
LOCK mode before the warning light illuminates.
If the master warning light illuminates during op-
eration, stop the vehicle with the engine idling in a
safe place immediately.
Then if the light turns off after a while, you can
continue driving.
A large difference between the diameters of the
front and rear wheels will make the warning light
illuminate. Pull off the road in a safe area and idle
the engine. Check that all tire sizes are the same,
tire pressure is correct, and the tires are not worn.CAUTION
●
If the warning light remains on after the
above operation, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
● If the warning light comes on while driv-
ing, there may be a malfunction in the
AWD system.
Reduce the vehicle speed and have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible. It
is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
● The powertrain may be damaged if you
continue driving with the warning light
illuminated.
● Never drive on dry, hard surface roads in
the LOCK mode, as this will overload
the powertrain and may cause a serious
malfunction.
INCREASING FUEL ECONOMY ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (if so
equipped)
5-84Starting and driving

WARNING
●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.
● Do not attempt to test an AWD
equipped vehicle on a 2–wheel dyna-
mometer (such as the dynamometers
used by some states for emissions test-
ing) or similar equipment even if the
other two wheels are raised off the
ground. Make sure that you inform the
test facility personnel that your vehicle
is equipped with AWD before it is
placed on a dynamometer. Using the
wrong test equipment may result in
drive train damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could result in
serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.
AWD LOCK SWITCH OPERATIONS
The AWD LOCK switch is located on the lower
side of the instrument panel. This switch is used
to select the AUTO or LOCK mode depending on
the driving conditions. LOCK mode:
The AWD LOCK indicator light will illuminate.
AUTO mode:
The AWD LOCK indicator light will turn off.
