When theforce applied tothe brake pedal
exceeds acertain level,theBrake Assist is
activated generating greaterbraking forcethana
conventional brakebooster evenwithlight pedal
force.
WARNING
The Brake Assist isonly anaid toassist
braking operation andisnot acollision

driver's responsibility tostay alert, drive
safely andbeincontrol ofthe vehicle at
all times.
ANTI-L OCKBRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
GUID-AD93 4732-3AE5-459A-B8C3 -7A014C0C24D9
WARNING
. The Anti-lock BrakingSystem(ABS)
is asophisticated device,butit
cannot prevent accidents resulting
from careless ordangerous driving
techniques. Itcan help maintain
vehicle control duringbraking on
slippery surfaces. Remember that
stopping distances onslippery sur-
faces willbelonger thanonnormal surfaces
evenwithABS. Stopping
distances mayalso belonger on
rough, gravelorsnow covered
roads, orifyou areusing tirechains.
Always maintain asafe distance
from thevehicle infront ofyou.
Ultimately, thedriver isresponsible
for safety.
. Tire type andcondition mayalso
affect braking effectiveness.
Ð When replacing tires,install the
specified sizeoftires onallfour
wheels.
Ð When installing aspare tire,
make surethatitis the proper
size andtype asspecified onthe
Tire andLoading Information
label. SeeªTire andLoading
Information labelº(P.9-12) of
this manual.
Ð For detailed information, see
ª Wheels andtiresº (P.8-31) of
this manual.
The Anti-lock BrakingSystem(ABS)controls
the brakes sothe wheels donot lock during hard
braking orwhen braking onslippery surfaces.
The system detects therotation speedateach wheel
andvaries thebrake fluidpressure to
prevent eachwheel fromlocking andsliding. By
preventing eachwheel fromlocking, thesystem
helps thedriver maintain steeringcontroland
helps tominimize swerving andspinning on
slippery surfaces.
Using thesystem
GUID-597 530BD-6BA 0-4B9D-B015-6FBB8D 66C7EE
Depress thebrake pedalandhold itdown.
Depress thebrake pedalwithfirmsteady
pressure, butdonot pump thebrakes. The
ABS willoperate toprevent thewheels from
locking up.Steer thevehicle toavoid obstacles.
WARNING
Do not pump thebrake pedal. Doingso
may result inincreased stoppingdis-
tances.

malfunction, itswitches theABS offand
illuminates theABS warning lightonthe
instrument panel.Thebrake system thenoper-
ates normally ,but without anti-lock assistance.
If the ABS warning lightilluminates duringthe
self-test orwhile driving, havethevehicle
checked byaNISSAN dealer.
Normal operation
GUID-9CB A1EE9-2858-46A7-AF1 C-F9A91252FE68
The ABS operates atspeeds above3to 6MPH
(5 to10 km/h) .The speed variesaccording to
road conditions.
When theABS senses thatoneormore wheels
are close tolocking up,the actuator rapidly
applies andreleases hydraulic pressure. This
action issimilar topumping thebrakes very
quickly .You may feelapulsation inthe brake
pedal andhear anoise fromunder thehood or
feel avibration fromtheactuator whenitis
operating. Thisisnormal andindicates thatthe
ABS isoperating properly.However, thepulsa-
tion may indicate thatroad conditions are
hazardous andextra careisrequired while
driving.

The Vehicle Dynamic Control(VDC)system
uses various sensors tomonitor driverinputs
and vehicle motion. Undercertain drivingcon-
ditions, theVDC system helpstoperform the
following functions.
. Controls brakepressure toreduce wheel
slip onone slipping drivewheel sopower is
transferred toanon slipping drivewheel on
the same axle.
. Controls brakepressure andengine output
to reduce drivewheel slipbased onvehicle
speed (traction controlfunction) .
. Controls brakepressure atindividual wheels
and engine outputtohelp thedriver maintain
control ofthe vehicle inthe following
conditions:
Ð understeer (vehicletendstonot follow
the steered pathdespite increased
steering input)
Ð oversteer (vehicletendstospin dueto
certain roadordriving conditions) .
The VDC system canhelp thedriver tomaintain
control ofthe vehicle, butitcannot prevent loss
of vehicle controlinall driving situations.
When theVDC system operates, theVDC
warning light
in the instrument panelflashes
so note thefollowing:
. The road maybeslippery orthe system may
determine someaction isrequired tohelp keep
thevehicle onthe steered path.
. You may feelapulsation inthe brake pedal
and hear anoise orvibration fromunder the
hood. Thisisnormal andindicates thatthe
VDC system isworking properly.
. Adjust yourspeed anddriving tothe road
conditions.
If a malfunction occursinthe system, theVDC
warning light
illuminates inthe instrument
panel. TheVDC system automatically turnsoff.
The VDC OFFswitch isused toturn offthe VDC
system. TheVDC offindicator
illuminates to
indicate theVDC system isoff. When theVDC
switch isused toturn offthe system, theVDC
system stilloperates toprevent onedrive wheel
from slipping bytransferring powertoanon
slipping drivewheel. TheVDC warning light
flashes ifthis occurs. Allother VDCfunctions
are off,and theVDC warning light
will not
flash. TheVDC system isautomatically resetto
on when theignition switchisplaced inthe off
position thenback tothe onposition.
