WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the DCA
system could result in serious personal
injury or death.
.Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the DCA system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
DCA system. To avoid serious injury
or death, do not rely on the system
to prevent accidents or to control
the vehicle’s speed in emergency
situations. Do not use the DCA
system except in appropriate road
and traffic conditions.
. This system is only an aid to assist
the driver and is not a collision
warning or avoidance device. It is
the driver’ s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely and be in control
of the vehicle at all times.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function, never
rely solely on the DCA system. This
system does not correct careless,
inattentive or absent-minded driv- ing, or overcome poor visibility in
rain, fog, or other bad weather.
Decelerate the vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal, de-
pending on the distance to the
vehicle ahead and the surrounding
circumstances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. Always pay attention to the opera-
tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually decelerate to maintain the
proper following distance. The DCA
system may not be able to decele-
rate the vehicle under some circum-
stances.
. This system only brakes and moves
the accelerator pedal upward to
help assist the driver to maintain a
following distance from the vehicle
ahead. Acceleration should be op-
erated by the driver.
. The DCA system does not control
vehicle speed or warn you when you
approach stationary and slow mov-
ing vehicles. You must pay attention
to vehicle operation to maintain
proper distance from vehicles
ahead.

Condition B:
When the radar sensor area is covered with dirt
or is obstructed, making it impossible to detect a
vehicle ahead, the DCA system is automatically
canceled.
The chime sounds and the DCA system warning
light (orange) will come on and the “FRONT
RADAR OBSTRUCTION” warning will appear.
Action to take:
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle in
a safe place, place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position and turn the engine off. When the radar
signal is temporarily interrupted, clean the
sensor area and restart the engine. If the “FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION” warning
continues to be displayed, have the DCA system
checked. It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the DCA system*Ais located
below the front bumper.
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
covered with ice, a transparent or translucent
vinyl bag, etc., the DCA system may not detect
them. In these instances, the DCA system may
not be able to decelerate the vehicle properly.
Be sure to check and clean the sensor regularly.

such as ice, snow, stickers, for
example. In these cases, the system
may not be able to warn the driver
