2016 NISSAN QASHQAI turn signal

In order to use your mobile phone with the Blue-
tooth®of the audio system, the mobile phone must
first be setup. For details, see “BLUETOOTH®
settings” later in this section. Once it has been
setup, the hands-free mode is automatically acti-
vated on the registered mobile phone (via Blue-
tooth
®) when it comes into range.
A notification message appears on the audio display
when the phone is connected, when an incoming
call is being received, as well as when a call is initi-
ated.
When a call is active, the audio system, microphone
(located in the ceiling in front of the rear view mir-
ror), and steering wheel switches enable hands-free
communication.
If the audio system is in use at the time, the radio,
CD, iPod, USB audio, Bluetooth audio or AUX
source mode will be muted and will stay muted until
the active call has ended.
The Bluetooth
®system may not be able to connect
with your mobile phone for the following reasons:
•The mobile phone is too far away from the ve-
hicle.
•The Bluetooth®mode on your mobile phone has
not been activated.
•Your mobile phone has not been paired with the
Bluetooth®system of the audio unit.
•The mobile phone does not support Bluetooth®
technology (BT Core v2.0).NOTE
•For models with NissanConnect (Audio with
Navigation system) see the separately pro-
vided Owner’s Manual.
•For details, see your mobile phone’s Owner’s
Manual.
•For assistance with your mobile phone inte-
gration, please visit your local NISSAN dealer.

be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a vari-
ety of reasons including the installation of replace-
ment or alternate tyres or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS indicator light after replacing one
or more tyres or wheels on your vehicle to ensure
that the replacement or alternate tyres and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
•The TPMS does not monitor the tyre pressure of
the spare tyre.
•The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 25 km/h (16 MPH). Also,
this system may not detect a sudden drop in tyre
pressure (for example a flat tyre while driving).
•The TPMS indicator light may not automatically
turn off when the tyre pressure is adjusted.After
the tyre is inflated to the recommended COLD
tyre pressure, drive the vehicle at speeds above
25 km/h (16 MPH) to activate the TPMS. See
“TPMS sensor ID and position recognition” later
in this section
•Following a change in the outside temperature,
the TPMS indicator light may illuminate even if
the tyre pressure has been adjusted properly.
Adjust the tyre pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure again when the tyres are
cold, and reset the TPMS.
For additional information, see “[Check cold tyre]
message” later in this section.
WARNING
•If the TPMS indicator light illuminates while
driving:
– avoid sudden steering manoeuvres
– avoid abrupt braking
– reduce vehicle speed
– pull off the road to a safe location
– stop the vehicle as soon as possible
•Driving with under-inflated tyres may perma-
nently damage the tyres and increase the like-
lihood of tyre failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur which may lead to an accident
and could result in serious personal injury.
•Check the tyre pressure for all four tyres. Ad-
just the tyre pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure shown on the tyre plac-
ard to turn the TPMS indicator light “OFF”. In
case of a flat tyre, replace it with a spare tyre
as soon as possible. (See “Flat tyre” in the
“6. In case of emergency” section for chang-
ing a flat tyre.)
•When a spare tyre is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, the TPMS will not function and the
TPMS indicator light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Be sure to follow all instructions for
wheel replacement and mount the TPMS sys-
tem correctly.
•Replacing tyres with those not originally speci-
fied by NISSAN could affect the proper opera-
tion of the TPMS.
•The Genuine NISSAN Emergency Tyre Repair
Sealant or equivalent can be used for tempo-
rarily repairing a tyre. Do not inject any other
tyre liquid or aerosol tyre sealant into the
tyres, as this may cause a malfunction of the
tyre pressure sensors.
•NISSAN recommends using only Genuine
NISSAN Emergency Tyre Sealant provided
with your vehicle. Other tyre sealants may
damage the valve stem seal which can cause
the tyre to lose air pressure. Visit a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop as soon as pos-
sible after using tyre repair sealant (for mod-
els equipped with the emergency tyre punc-
ture repair kit).
CAUTION
•The TPMS may not function properly when the
wheels are equipped with tyre chains or the
wheels are buried in snow.
•Do not place metalised film or any metal parts
(antenna, etc.) on the windows. This may
cause poor reception of the signals from the
tyre pressure sensors, and the TPMS will not
function properly.

mirrors) will illuminate. If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice) and the Blind spot
indicator light will start flashing bright orange to alert
you to the presence of vehicle(s) in the adjacent
lane.
The Blind spot indicator light continues to flash until
the detected vehicle(s) leave the detection zone.
Detection zone
The camera unit can detect vehicles on either side
of your vehicle when part of another vehicle is within
the detection zone shown as illustrated.
This detection zone typically starts from the outside
mirror of your vehicle and extends approximately 3
m (10 ft) behind the rear bumper, and approximately
3 m (10 ft) sideways.
The brightness of the Blind Spot Indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the brightness
of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the camera unit has already de-
tected vehicles when the driver activates the turnsignal. If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal, then only
the Blind Spot Indicator light flashes and no chime
sounds. (See “BSW driving situations” later in this
section.)
Turning the BSW system on or off
Turning the BSW system on or off is done using the
[Settings] menu in the vehicle information display.
For details. see “Vehicle information display” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.
In the [Settings] menu, select the [Driver Assistance]
key. Then select [Driving Aids]. Select [Blind Spot
Warning] key by pressing. A tick mark
next to [Blind Spot Warning] indicates that the sys-
tem is turned on.
SYSTEM ON:
The BSW light on the vehicle information display will
light up.
SYSTEM OFF:
The BSW light on the vehicle information display will
turn off.
WARNING
•The camera unit may not be able to detect
when certain objects are present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.
– Vehicles such as motorcycles, low height
vehicles, or high ground clearance
vehicles.
– Oncoming vehicles.– A vehicle approaching rapidly from behind.
(See “BSW driving situations” later in this
section.)
– A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes rap-
idly. (See “BSW driving situations” later in
this section.)
– A vehicle that merges or changes lanes
rapidly directly next to your vehicle.
•The camera unit may not be able to detect
properly when your vehicle travels beside the
middle section of a vehicle with long wheel-
base (for example, trailer truck, semi-trailer,
tractor).
•The camera detection zone is designed based
on a standard lane width. When driving in a
wider lane, the camera unit may not detect
vehicles in an adjacent lane. When driving in a
narrow lane, the camera unit may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
•The camera unit is designed to ignore most
stationary objects, however objects such as
guardrails, walls, foliage and parked vehicles
may occasionally be detected. This is a nor-
mal operating condition.
•The camera unit may detect the reflected im-
age of vehicles or roadside objects that are
not actually in the detection zone, especially
when the road is wet.

BSW DRIVING SITUATIONS
Another vehicle approaching from
behind
The Blind Spot Indicator light illuminates if a vehicle
enters the detection zone from behind in an adja-
cent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is travelling much
faster than your vehicle, the indicator light may not
illuminate before the detected vehicle is beside your
vehicle.If the driver activates the turn signal, then the Blind
Spot Indicator light flashes and a chime will sound
twice.
NOTE
If the driver activates the turn signal before a
vehicle enters the detection zone, the Blind Spot
Indicator light will flash but no chime will sound
when the other vehicle is detected.
Overtaking other vehicles
The Blind Spot Indicator light illuminates if you over-
take a vehicle and that vehicle stays in the detection
zone for approximately 3 seconds.
The camera unit may not detect slower moving ve-
hicles if they are passed quickly.
If the driver activates the turn signal while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, then the Blind Spot
Indicator light flashes and a chime will sound twice.
BSW TEMPORARY DISABLED
STATUS
Under the following conditions the BSW system is
turned off temporarily and the BSW light will blink
