CAUTION
•The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system is
intended as an aid to careful driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, and observe all road regulations that
currently apply, including looking out for road
signs.
•The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system
may not function properly under the following
conditions:
•When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the
windscreen in front of the TSR camera unit.
•When the headlights are not bright due to
dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not ad-
justed properly.
•When strong light enters the camera unit.
(For example, the light directly shines on
the front of the vehicle at sunrise or sun-
set.)
•When a sudden change in brightness oc-
curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
•In areas not covered by the navigation sys-
tem.
•If there are deviations in relation to the
navigation, for example due to changes in
the road routing.
•When overtaking buses or trucks with
speed stickers.
Turning the TSR system on and off
Turning the LDW system on or of is done using the
[Settings] menu in the vehicle information display.
For details, see “Vehicle information display” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.
Perform the following steps to enable or disable the
TSR system:
1. In the [Settings] menu, select the [Driver Assis-
tance] key.
2. Touch [Traffic Sign] to turn the system ON/OFF.
System temporarily unavailable
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under high
temperature conditions (over approximately 40 C
(104 F) and then started, the TSR system may be
deactivated automatically. The [Not available high
cabin temperature] warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display.
Action to take:
When the interior temperature is reduced, the TSR
system will resume operating automatically.
System Malfunction
If the TSR system malfunctions it will be turned off
automatically and the system [Malfunction]/[System
error] warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
Action to take:
If the TSR [Malfunction]/[System error] message
appears, pull off the road at a safe location and stop
the vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart the en-
gine. If the TSR [Malfunction]/[System error] mes-
sage continues to appear, have the system checked
by a NISSAN dealer.
Maintenance
The TSR uses the same multi-sensing front camera
unit that is used by the Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) system, located in front of the interior rear
view mirror. For maintenance of the camera, see
“Multi-sensing camera unit maintenance” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.
Instruments and controls2-31

Wiper drip wipe system (where fitted):
The wiper will also operate once about 3 seconds
after using the washer. This operation is to wipe
washer fluid that has dripped on the windscreen.
Rain sensor (where fitted)
The sensor of the rain-sensing auto wiper system
located on the upper part of the windscreen, in front
of the rear view mirror, can automatically turn on the
wipers and adjust the wiper speed depending on
the rainfall intensity and the vehicle speed when the
lever in the AUTO position
j1.
The sensitivity can be adjusted by rotating the ring
of the wiper switch forward
jA — less sensitive, or
backwardjB — more sensitive.
NOTE
•Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing auto wiper
system when the car is in the car wash.
•Leaving the lever in AUTO position will not
harm the rain sensor system, although occa-
sional unexpected activation of the wipers
may occur.
•If the switch is left in the AUTO position, the
wipers may operate unexpectedly when dirt,
fingerprints, oil film or insects are covering
the windscreen of the rain sensor location.
The wipers may also operate when exhaust
gas or moisture affects the rain sensor.
•Do not touch or cover the windscreen where
the rain sensor is located. The wipers may
operate unexpectedly when the wiper switchis in the AUTO position and the ignition switch
is in the ON position. This can cause an injury
or a wiper damage.
REAR WINDOW
WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solution
may freeze on the rear window and obscure your
vision. Warm the rear window with the rear win-
dow defogger before using the rear wipers.
CAUTION
•Do not operate the washer continuously for
more than 15 seconds.
•Do not operate the washer if the reservoir
tank is empty or frozen.
The rear window wiper and washer operates when
the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Wiper operation
Turn the switch clockwise to the intermittent (,j1 ) position or continuous (,j2 ) position for
wiper operation.
To stop the wiper operation, turn the switch back to
the OFF position.
Washer operation:
To operate the washer, push the lever towards the
front of the vehicle
j3 until the desired amount of
washer fluid is spread on the rear window. The wiper
will automatically operate several times.
Wiper drip wipe system (where fitted):
The wiper will also operate once about 3 seconds
after using the washer. This operation is to wipe
washer fluid that has dripped on the windscreen.
The mode can be turned off. For details, see “Ve-
hicle information display” later in this section.
Reverse synchronisation function
(where fitted)
When the windscreen wiper switch is in either the
intermittent or AUTO (where fitted), low or high
speed position, placing the shift lever in the R (Re-
verse) position will operate the rear window wiper.
The mode can be turned off. For details, see “Ve-
hicle information display” later in this section.

WARNING
•Do not adjust the heater and air conditioner
controls or audio controls while driving so that
full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
•If you noticed any foreign objects entering the
system hardware, spilled liquid on the sys-
tem, or noticed smoke or fumes coming out
from the system, or any other unusual opera-
tion is observed, stop using the system imme-
diately and contact the nearest NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop. Ignoring such condi-
tions may lead to an accident, fire or electric
shock.
•Do not disassemble or modify this system. If
you do, it may lead to an accident, fire, or
electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not use the system when the engine is not
running for extended periods of time to prevent
battery discharge.
j1Display
j2Camera
When the shift lever is moved into the R (Reverse)
position, the monitor (NissanConnect display)
shows the view from the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary objects. It is intended to
help avoid damaging the vehicle when reversing.
However, the system will not detect small objects
below the bumper and may not detect objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
WARNING
•The rear-view camera is a convenience but it
is not a substitute for proper reversing. Al-
ways turn your head and visually check that
the manoeuvre is safe to do so before revers-
ing. Always reverse slowly.
•The distance from the objects viewed in the
rear-view monitor differs from actual distancebecause of the use of wide-angle lens. Ob-
jects in the rear-view monitor will appear visu-
ally reversed compared to those viewed in the
inside and outside mirrors.
•Make sure that the back door is securely
closed when reversing.
•The area below the bumper and corner areas
of the bumper cannot be viewed on the rear-
view monitor because of its monitoring range
limitation.
•Do not put anything on the rear-view camera.
The rear-view camera is installed above the
number plate.
•When washing the vehicle with high pressure
water, be sure not to spray it around the cam-
era. Otherwise, water may enter the camera
unit causing possibly water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, a fire or an electric
shock.
•Do not strike the camera. It is a precision in-
strument. Otherwise, it may malfunction or
cause damage resulting in a fire or an electric
shock.
CAUTION
There is a transparent cover over the camera
lens. Do not scratch the cover when cleaning dirt
or snow from it.
