WARNING
.The BSW system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedure
and is not designed to prevent
contact with vehicles or objects.
When changing lanes, always use
the side and rear mirrors and turn
and look in the direction you will
move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes. Never rely solely on the BSW
system.
. The BSW system operates above
approximately 20 MPH (32 km/h) .
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system can
help alert the driver of other vehicles in adjacent
lanes when changing lanes.
SSD1178
The BSW system uses radar sensors*A
installed near the rear bumper to detect other
vehicles in an adjacent lane.

Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on either
side of your vehicle within the detection zone
shown as illustrated. This detection zone starts
from the outside mirror of your vehicle and
extends approximately 10 ft (3 m) behind the
rear bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3 m)
sideways.
The BSW system operates above approximately
20 MPH (32 km/h) . If the radar sensors detect a
vehicle in the detection zone, the BSW indicator
light illuminates. If the driver then activates the
turn signal, a chime will sound twice and the
BSW indicator light will flash.

BSW SYSTEM OPERATIONGUID-B7B4A2DD-5B73-4122-8C65-5DB3CA4A4566If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW indicator light in the
outside mirror will illuminate in the direction of
the detected vehicle. If the turn signal is then
activated, the system chimes (twice) and the
BSW indicator light flashes. The BSW indicator
light continues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the bright-
&RQGLWLRQ


> (GLW    0RGHO (' @
ness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected a vehicle when the driver
activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes into
the detection zone after the driver activates the
turn signal, then only the BSW indicator light
flashes and no chime sounds. (See ªBSW
driving situationsº (P.5-20).)
The BSW system is automatically turned on
when the engine is started and the BSW ON
indicator light
*1on the switch illuminates. You
can turn the BSW system off by pushing the
BSW switch on the instrumental panel.
NOTE:
If you continue to push and hold the BSW
switch from off to on for over 4 seconds, a
chime will sound. This will change the
default status of the BSW system to OFF
so that this system will not automatically
turn on when the engine is started. If this
procedure is repeated, the default status
will return to ON.
BSW temporarily not availableGUID-6D4D6EF8-1DF9-4D89-8011-E54A25724E70. When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
beep will sound and the BSW system
warning light will blink. The BSW system is
not available until the condition no longer
exists. The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary
ambient conditions such as splashing water,
mist or fog. The blocked condition may also be
caused by objects such as ice, frost or dirt
obstructing the radar sensors.
Action to take:
When the above condition no longer exists, the
BSW system will resume automatically.
If the warning light continues to blink, have the
BSW system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
BSW malfunctionGUID-1F7A26C5-A202-469B-81D0-8B3F6C47D612When the BSW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a beep will sound and
the BSW system warning light will illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location and place the
shift in the P (Park) position. Turn the engine off
and restart the engine.
If the warning light continues to illuminate, have
the BSW system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
BSW SYSTEM PRECAUTIONSGUID-3DDA042B-4A54-436D-8806-7EA18999A1CB
WARNING
.
The radar sensors may not be able
to detect and activate BSW when
certain objects are present such as: Ð Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
Ð Vehicles such as motorcycles,
low height vehicles, or high
ground clearance vehicles
Ð Oncoming vehicles
Ð Vehicles remaining in the detec- tion zone when you accelerate
from a stop
Ð A vehicle merging into an adja- cent lane at a speed approxi-
mately the same as your vehicle
Ð A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind
Ð A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rapidly
See also ªBSW driving situationsº
(P.5-20) for the situations in which
the radar sensors may not be able
to detect vehicle(s) .
. The BSW system may not provide a
warning for vehicles that pass the
detection zone quickly.
. The radar sensors detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane,
the radar sensors may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When

5-20Starting and driving
driving in a narrow lane, the radar
sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
. The radar sensors are designed to
ignore most stationary objects,
however objects such as guardrails,
walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This
is a normal operating condition.
. Severe weather or road spray con-
ditions may reduce the ability of the
radar to detect other vehicles.
. Do not use the BSW system when
towing a trailer because the system
may not function properly.
. Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.

behind in an adjacent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is traveling
much faster than your vehicle, the indicator light
may not illuminate before the detected vehicle is
beside your vehicle. Always use the side and
rear mirrors and turn and look in the direction
your vehicle will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes.

RADAR MAINTENANCEGUID-CBDF7C40-05E0-4E96-BAE0-D10F27EC5605The two radar sensors*Afor the BSW system
are located near the rear bumper. Always keep
the area near the radar sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary
ambient conditions such splashing water, mist
or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the
radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing the
area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including transparent
material) , install accessories or apply additional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around the
radar sensors. Consult a NISSAN dealer if the
area around the radar sensors is damaged due
to a collision.

TROL
GUID-AB75F9CA-C483-4D56-BCA5-FA2428CFBF24.If the cruise control system malfunctions, it
will cancel automatically. The CRUISE in-
dicator light on the meter panel will then
blink to warn the driver.
. If the engine coolant temperature becomes
excessively high, the cruise control system
will cancel automatically.
. If the CRUISE indicator light blinks, turn the
cruise control main switch off and have the
system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
. The CRUISE indicator light may blink when
the cruise control main switch is turned ON
while pushing the ACCELERATE/RESUME,
COAST/SET or CANCEL switch. To prop-
erly set the cruise control system, perform
the following procedures.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when
driving under the following conditions:
.when it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed
. in heavy traffic or in traffic that
varies in speed .
on winding or hilly roads
. on slippery roads (rain, snow, ice,
etc.)
. in very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
