than 10 inches (25.0 cm) from the side of the
vehicle, the tone will sound for only 3 seconds.
Once the system detects an object approaching,
the tone will sound again.
The Front Sonar System sounds a tone to warn
the driver of obstacles near the front bumper. The
front sonar system automatically turns on when
the shift lever is placed in a forward gear and the
ignition switch is in the ON position. The system
may not detect objects at speeds above 3 mph
(5 km/h) and may not detect certain angular or
moving objects.
The Front Sonar System detects obstacles up to
3 feet (1.0 m) from the front bumper with a
decreased coverage area at the outer corners of
the bumper, (refer to the illustration for approxi-
mate zone coverage areas) . As you move closer
to the obstacle, the rate of the tone increases.
When the obstacle is less than 10 inches
(25.0 cm) away, the tone will sound continuously.
If it detects a stationary or receding object further
than 10 inches (25.0 cm) from the side of the
vehicle, the tone will sound for only 3 seconds.
Once the system detects an object approaching,
the tone will sound again.The front and rear sonar system OFF switch on
the instrument panel allows the driver to turn the
sonar system on and off. To turn the system off,
the ignition must be ON, and the shift lever in R
(Reverse) or D (Drive) . An indicator light on the
switch will illuminate when the system is turned
off. If the indicator light illuminates when the
system is not turned off, it may indicate a failure in
the sonar system.
Keep the front and rear sonar sensors (located on
the bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt (do not clean the sensors
with sharp objects) . If the sensors are covered, it
will affect the accuracy of the sonar system.FREEING A FROZEN DOOR LOCK
To prevent a door lock from freezing, apply de-
icer through the key hole. If the lock becomes
frozen, heat the key before inserting it into the key
hole, or use the remote keyless entry key fob or
the NISSAN Intelligent Key®.
