TURNING THE FEB SYSTEM
ON/OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the FEB sys-
tems ON or OFF.
1. Press the
button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display and
then press OK button. Use the
button
to select “Driver Assistance”. Then press the
OK button.
2. Select “Emergency Brake” and press the
OK button.
3. Select “System” and press the OK button.
When the FEB system is turned off, the FEB
system warning light illuminates.
NOTE:
●The FEB system will be automatically turned
on when the engine is restarted.
●The PFCW system (if so equipped) is inte-
grated into the FEB system. There is not a
separate selection in the vehicle information
display for the PFCW system. When the
FEB is turned off, the PFCW system is also
turned off.
FEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
●The FEB system cannot detect all ve-
hicles under all conditions.
●The radar sensor does not detect the
following objects:
– Pedestrians, animals or obstacles in
the roadway.
– Oncoming vehicles.
– Crossing vehicles.
●The radar sensor has some perfor-
mance limitations. If a stationary ve-
hicle is in the vehicle’s path, the FEB
system will not function when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 50 mph (80 km/h).
●The radar sensor may not detect a ve-
hicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material cov-
ering the radar sensor.– Interference by other radar sources.
– Snow or road spray from traveling
vehicles.
– If the vehicle ahead is narrow (e.g.
motorcycle) .
– When driving on a steep downhill
slope or roads with sharp curves.
●In some road or traffic conditions, the
FEB system may unexpectedly apply
partial braking. When acceleration is
necessary, continue to depress the ac-
celerator pedal to override the system.
●Braking distances increase on slippery
surfaces.
●The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s functionality, within
certain limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstructions of
the sensor area such as ice, snow, stick-
ers, etc. In these cases, the system may
not be able to worn the driver properly.
Be sure that you check, clean and clear
the sensor area regularly.
●Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
Condition A
When the radar sensor picks up interference
from another radar source, making it impossible
to detect a vehicle ahead, the FEB system is
automatically turned off.
The FEB system warning light (orange) will illu-
minate.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist, the
FEB system will resume automatically.
Condition B
When the sensor area of the front bumper is
covered with dirt or is obstructed, making it im-
possible to detect a vehicle ahead, the FEB sys-
tem is automatically turned off.
The FEB system warning light (orange) will illu-
minate and the “front radar obstruction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle information
display.

ing.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the FEB system malfunctions, it will be turned
off automatically, a chime will sound, the FEB
warning light (orange) will illuminate and the
warning message [Malfunction] will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop the
vehicle in a safe location, turn the engine off and
restart the engine. If the warning light continues
to illuminate, have the FEB system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensorAis located on the front of the
vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly, be sure to
observe the following:
●Always keep the sensor area of the front
bumper clean.
●Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensor.
●Do not cover or attach stickers or similar
objects on the front bumper near the sensor
area. This could cause failure or malfunction.●Do not attach metallic objects near the sen-
sor area (brush guard, etc.) . This could
cause failure or malfunction.
●Do not alter, remove or paint the front bum-
per. Before customizing or restoring the
front bumper, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer.

WARNING
●If the engine is not running or is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the steering will not work. Steering will
be harder to operate.
●When the power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running,
there will be no power assist for the
steering. You will still have control of
the vehicle, but the steering will be
harder to operate. Have the power
steering system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
The power steering system is designed to pro-
vide power assist while driving to operate the
steering wheel with light force.
When the steering wheel is operated repeatedly
or continuously while parking or driving at a very
low speed, the power assist for the steering
wheel will be reduced. This is to prevent over-
heating of the power steering system and protect
it from getting damaged. While the power assist
is reduced, steering wheel operation will become
heavy. When the temperature of the power steer-
ing system goes down, the power assist level will
return to normal. Avoid repeating such steeringwheel operations that could cause the power
steering system to overheat.
You may hear a sound when the steering wheel is
operated quickly. However, this is not a malfunc-
tion.
If the electric power steering warning light illumi-
nates while the engine is running, it may indicate
the power steering system is not functioning
properly and may need servicing. Have the power
steering system checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
When the electric power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running, there will be
no power assist for the steering, but you will still
have control of the vehicle. At this time, greater
steering effort is required to operate the steering
wheel, especially in sharp turns and at low
speeds.
For additional information, refer to “Power steer-
ing warning light” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section of this manual.The brake system has two separate hydraulic
circuits. If one circuit malfunctions, you will still
have braking at two wheels.
BRAKE PRECAUTIONS
Vacuum assisted brakes
The brake booster aids braking by using engine
vacuum. If the engine stops, you can stop the
vehicle by depressing the brake pedal. However,
greater foot pressure on the brake pedal will be
required to stop the vehicle and stopping dis-
tance will be longer.
Using the brakes
Avoid resting your foot on the brake pedal while
driving. This will overheat the brakes, wear out the
brake pads faster, and reduce gas mileage.
To help reduce brake wear and to prevent the
brakes from overheating, reduce speed and
downshift to a lower gear before going down a
slope or long grade. Overheated brakes may
reduce braking performance and could result in
loss of vehicle control.
