SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensors*Afor the BCI 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 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.
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.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer if
the area around the radar sensors is damaged
due to a collision.

The DCA system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s operation. When the sensor
is covered with dirt or is obstructed, the system
will automatically be canceled. If the sensor is
