(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.
. 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.

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
RCTA system will also stop working.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the system will resume automati-
cally.
If the “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruc-
tion” warning message continues to ap-
pear, have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSW system malfunctions, it will
be turned off automatically and the
system malfunction warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
RCTA system 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.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the BSW
system are located near the rear bumper.
Always keep the area near the radar
sensors clean.
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.
Check for and remove objects obstruct-
ing the area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or apply additional paint near the radar
sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around
the radar sensors.
See a NISSAN dealer or other authorized
repair shop if the area around the radar
sensors is damaged due to a collision.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
RCTA system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The RCTA system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving proce-
dures and is not designed to
prevent contact with vehicles or
objects. When backing out of a
parking space, always use the
side and rear mirrors and turn
and look in the direction your
vehicle will move. Never rely so-
lely on the RCTA system.
The RCTA system will assist you when
backing out from a parking space. When
the vehicle is in reverse, the system is
designed to detect other vehicles ap-
proaching from the right or left of the
vehicle. If the system detects cross traffic,
it will alert you.
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)

RCTA SYSTEM OPERATION
The RCTA system can help alert the driver
of an approaching vehicle when the
driver is backing out of a parking space.
When the shift position is in R (Reverse)
and the vehicle speed is less than ap-
proximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the RCTA
system is operational.
If the radar detects an approaching
vehicle from either side, the system
chimes (once) and the side indicator light
flashes on the side the vehicle is ap-
proaching from.

The RCTA system uses radar sensorsinstalled on both sides near the rear
bumper to detect an approaching vehicle.
The radar sensors
can detect an
approaching vehicle from up to approxi-
mately 66 ft (20 m) away.

RCTA SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the RCTA system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.Always check surroundings and
turn to check what is behind you
before backing up. The radar
sensors detect approaching
(moving) vehicles. The radar sen-
sors cannot detect every object
such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, motor-
cycles, animals or child-oper-
ated toy vehicles
— A vehicle that is passing at speeds greater than approxi-
mately 19 MPH (30 km/h)
— A vehicle that is passing at speeds lower than approxi-
mately 5 MPH (8 km/h)
. The radar sensors may not detect
approaching vehicles in certain
situations:

— Illustration: When a vehicle
parked next to you obstructs
the beam of the radar sensor.
— Illustration
: When the vehi-
cle is parked in an angled
parking space.
— Illustration
: When the vehi-
cle is parked on inclined
ground.
— Illustration
: When an ap-
proaching vehicle turns into
your vehicle’s parking lot aisle.
— Illustration
: When the angle
formed by your vehicle and
approaching vehicle is small
. 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 (e.g. audio sys-
tem volume, open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be
heard.JVS0172X

NOTE:
In the case of several vehicles ap-
proaching in a row (Illustration 1) or in
the opposite direction (Illustration 2), a
chime may not be sounded by the RCTA
system after the first vehicle passes the
sensors.
