LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM PFP:28442
Precautions for Lane Departure Warning (LDW) systemAKS00C7T
WARNING:
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is only a warning device to inform the driver of an unintended lane
departure. It will not steer the vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is the driver's responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

LDW system does not operate under the following conditions:
–At speeds below 45 MPH (72 km/h).
–If it cannot detect lane markers.

LDW system may not function properly under the following conditions:
–On roads where a water puddle, dirt or snow is covering the lane markers.
–On roads where the lane markers are faded or are not painted clearly.
–On roads where the lane markers are painted yellow.

LDW system may not monitor the lane markers in certain road, weather or driving conditions.
–On roads where there are sharp curves.
–Where the traveling lane merges or separates.
–On roads where the discontinued lane markers are present, such as near tollgates, etc.
–On roads where there are not general lane markers.
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
–When strong light (for example, at sunrise or sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle.
–When entering or exiting a tunnel where sudden changes in brightness occur.
–When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which causes obstruction of the camera unit
range.
–When the vehicle's traveling direction does not align with the lane marker.
–When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the windshield in front of the camera unit.

Excessive noise interferes with warning system chime sound and the chime may not be heard.
CAUTION:
To keep the LDW system operating properly, be sure to observe the following:

Always keep the windshield clean. The sensing capability of the camera unit depends on the con-
dition of the windshield. See “Appearance and care” for cleaning instruction.

Never strike or damage the areas around the camera unit.

Never touch the camera lens.

Never attach a sticker (including transparent material) or install an accessory near the camera
unit.

Never place reflective materials, such as a white paper or mirrors on the instrument panel. Reflec-
tion of the sunlight may adversely affect the camera unit's lane marker detection capability.
System DescriptionAKS00C7U
LDW SYSTEM OPERATION

The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system warns the driver when the vehicle is traveling close to either
the left or the right of the traveling lane.

The system monitors lane markers of the traveling lane using the LDW camera unit. When the LDW cam-
era unit detects that the vehicle is traveling close to either the left or the right of the traveling lane, the
LDW indicator lamp flashes and a chime sounds to alert the driver.
NOTE:
When activating turn signal, LDW system does not give a warning to the lane marker on the turn signal
side.

The LDW system can be turned on or off by pushing the LDW switch. When the system is on, the LDW
system ON indicator illuminates.

The LDW system has an automatic mode and manual mode.
In the automatic mode
–LDW system automatically turns on, when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
ABS00A2R
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:

To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System of Engine and A/TABS006JZ
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) to warn the
driver of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:

Be sure to turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative battery cable before any
repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves,
etc. will cause the MIL to light up.

Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MIL to light up due to the open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)

Certain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use a new style slide-
locking type harness connector. For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-74, "
HAR-
NESS CONNECTOR" .

Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. The interference of the harness
with a bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to the short circuit.

Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to light up due to the malfunction of the EVAP system or fuel injection system,
etc.

Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the ECM and
TCM (Transmission control module) before returning the vehicle to the customer.
PrecautionABS006K0

Always use a 12 volt battery as power source.

Do not attempt to disconnect battery cables while engine is
running.

Before connecting or disconnecting the ECM harness con-
nector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect negative
battery cable. Failure to do so may damage the ECM
because battery voltage is applied to ECM even if ignition
switch is turned OFF.

Before removing parts, turn ignition switch OFF and then
disconnect negative battery cable.
