DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462383
The ECM receives two vehicle speed sensor signals via CAN communication line. One is sent from combina-
tion meter, and the other is from TCM (Transmission control module). The ECM uses these signals for ASCD
control. Refer to EC-63, "AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL DE VICE (ASCD) : System Description"
for ASCD
functions.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The amount of fuel injected from the fuel injector is determined by the ECM. The ECM controls the length of
time the valve remains open (injection pulse duration). T he amount of fuel injected is a program value in the
ECM memory. The program value is preset by engi ne operating conditions. These conditions are determined
by input signals (for engine speed and intake air) from t he crankshaft position sensor (POS), camshaft position
sensor (PHASE) and the mass air flow sensor.
VARIOUS FUEL INJECTION INCREASE/DECREASE COMPENSATION
In addition, the amount of fuel injected is compens ated to improve engine performance under various operat-
ing conditions as listed below.

• During warm-up
• When starting the engine
• During acceleration
• Hot-engine operation
• When selector lever position is changed from N to D
• High-load, high-speed operation

• During deceleration
• During high engine speed operation

BASIC ASCD SYSTEM
Refer to Owner's Manual for ASCD operating instructions.
Automatic Speed Control Device (ASCD) allows a dr iver to keep vehicle at predetermined constant speed
without depressing accelerator pedal. Driver can set vehicle speed in advance between approximately 40 km/
h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89 MPH).
ECM controls throttle angle of electric thro ttle control actuator to regulate engine speed.
Operation status of ASCD is indicated by CRUISE indi cator and SET indicator in combination meter. If any
malfunction occurs in the ASCD system, it automatically deactivates control.
NOTE:
Always drive vehicle in a safe manner according to traffic conditions and obey all traffic laws.
SET OPERATION
Press MAIN switch. (The CRUISE indicato r in combination meter illuminates.)
When vehicle speed reaches a desired speed between approximately 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (89
MPH), press SET/COAST switch. (Then SET la mp in combination meter illuminates.)
ACCELERATE OPERATION
If the RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is pressed during cruise control driving, increase the vehicle speed until
the switch is released or vehicle speed r eaches maximum speed controlled by the system.
And then ASCD will maintain the new set speed.
CANCEL OPERATION
When any of following conditions exist, cruise operation will be canceled.
• CANCEL switch is pressed
• ON/OFF (MAIN) switch pressed (Set speed is cleared)

U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463121
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication system for real time application. It is an on-vehicle
multiplex communication system with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto vehicl es, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent ). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with two communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. Refer to
LAN-32, "CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM : CAN Communication Signal Chart"

*2: As an alternative to this recommended oil, SAE 5W-30 conventional petroleum based oil may be used and meet all specificatio ns
and requirements necessary to maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
*3: NISSAN recommen ds Genuine NISSAN Ester Oil av ailable at a NISSAN dealer.
*4: Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS -3, using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3
will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.

FOR USA AND CANADA : En gine Oil RecommendationINFOID:0000000009464537
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conserving o il in order to improve fuel economy. Select only
engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institut e (API) certification and International Lubricant Standard-
ization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certificati on and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have the API
certification mark on the front of the container. Oils which do not have the specified quality label should not be
used as they could cause engine damage.
