WARNING LIGHTS
For additional information on warnings
and indicators, refer to “Vehicle information
display” in this section.
orAnti-lock Braking
System (ABS)
warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the ABS warning light illuminates
and then turns off. This indicates the ABS is
operational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while
the engine is running or while driving, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system
then operates normally but without anti-
lock assistance. For additional information,
refer to “Brake system” in the “Starting and
driving” section of this manual.
Automatic EmergencyBraking (AEB) system

equipped)
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. It turns
off af ter the engine is started.
This light illuminates when the AEB system
is set to OFF on the vehicle information
display.
If the light illuminates when the AEB sys-
tem is on, it may indicate that the system is
unavailable. For additional information, re-
fer to “Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)”
in the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.

Unavailable: Front Radar Obstruction (if
so equipped)
This warning appears when the Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system or the Auto-
matic Emergency Braking (AEB) system
becomes unavailable because the front ra-
dar is obstructed. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)”
or “Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)” in

systems:
∙ Vehicle security system (if so equipped)
∙ NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM (if so
equipped)
The vehicle security system provides visual
and audible alarm signals if someone
opens the doors when the system is
armed. It is not, however, a motion detec-
tion type system that activates when a ve-
hicle is moved or when a vibration occurs. The system helps detect vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t of interior or exterior vehicle compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your keys in the ignition, and
always lock the vehicle when unattended.
Be aware of your surroundings, and park in
secure, well-lit areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. A NISSAN dealer may also offer
such equipment. Check with your insur-
ance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various thef t protection
features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.
(The system can be
armed even if the windows are open.)
2. Place the ignition switch in the LOCK position and remove the key.
3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with:

This equipment should be installed and
operated with minimum distance of 20 cm
between the radiator and your body.
The transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other an-
tenna or transmitter.
For Canada
This device complies with Industry Canada
licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:1. This device may not cause interference,
2. This device must accept any interfer- ence, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the de-
vice.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the AEB
system could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The AEB system is a supplemental aidto the driver. It is not a replacement
for the driver’s attention to traffic
conditions or responsibility to drive
safely. It cannot prevent accidents
due to carelessness or dangerous
driving techniques.
∙ The AEB system does not function in all driving, traffic, weather and road
conditions.
The AEB system can assist the driver when
there is a risk of a forward collision with the
vehicle ahead in the traveling lane. The AEB system uses a radar sensor
A
located behind the lower grille of the front
bumper to measure the distance to the
vehicle ahead in the same lane.

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
(AEB) (if so equipped)
5-62Starting and driving

1. Vehicle ahead detection indicator
2. AEB system warning light
AEB SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB system will function when your
vehicle is driven at speeds above approxi-
mately 3 mph (5 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB system will provide an initial warn-
ing to the driver by both a visual and au-
dible alert.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully af ter the warning, and the AEB
system detects that there is still the possi-
bility of a forward collision, the system will
automatically increase the braking force. If
the driver does not take action, the AEB
system issues the second visual warning
(red) and audible warning and also applies
partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes imminent,
the AEB system applies harder braking au-
tomatically.
LSD2570
Starting and driving5-63

NOTE:
The vehicle’s brake lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving and
roadway conditions, the system may help
the driver avoid a forward collision or may
help mitigate the consequences of a colli-
sion, should one be unavoidable. If the
driver is handling the steering wheel, accel-
erating or braking, the AEB system will
function later or will not function.
The automatic braking will cease under the
following conditions:∙ When the steering wheel is turned as far as necessary to avoid a collision.
∙ When the accelerator pedal is de- pressed.
∙ When there is no longer a vehicle de- tected ahead.
If the AEB system has stopped the vehicle,
the vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approximately 2 seconds before the
brakes are released.

TURNING THE AEB SYSTEM
ON/OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the AEB
system ON or OFF.1. Press the
button until “Settings”
displays in the vehicle information dis-
play. Use the
button to select
“Driver Assistance.” Then press the EN-
TER button.
2. Select “Driving Aids” and press the EN- TER button.
3. Select “Emergency Brake” and press the ENTER button.
When the AEB system is turned off, the AEB
system warning light illuminates.
NOTE:
The AEB system will be automatically
turned on when the engine is restarted.
AEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the AEB system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death.
∙ The AEB system cannot detect all ve- hicles under all conditions.
∙ The radar sensor does not detect the following objects:
– Pedestrians, animals or obstacles in the roadway.
– Oncoming vehicles.
– Crossing vehicles.
∙ The radar sensor has some perfor- mance limitations. If a stationary ve-
hicle is in the vehicle’s path, the AEB
system will not function when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 50 mph (80 km/h).
∙
The radar sensor may not detect a ve-
hicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering the radar sensor. – Interference by other radar
sources.
– Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles.
– If the vehicle ahead is narrow (e.g., motorcycle).
– When driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
∙
In some road or traffic conditions, the
AEB system may unexpectedly apply
partial braking. When acceleration is
necessary, continue to depress the ac-
celerator pedal to override the system.
∙ Braking distances increase on slip- pery surfaces.
∙
The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s functionality, within
certain limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstructions of
the sensor area such as ice, snow, stick-
ers, etc. In these cases, the system may
not be able to warn the driver properly.
Be sure that you check, clean and clear
the sensor area regularly.
∙ Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
