When driving on roads with limited road struc-
tures or buildings (for example, long bridges,
deserts, snow fields, driving next to long walls) ,
the system may illuminate the system warning
light (orange) and display the “Unavailable: Front
Radar Obstruction” message.
Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop the
vehicle in a safe place, place the shift lever in the
P (Park) position and turn the engine off. Clean
the radar cover on the lower grille with a soft
cloth, and restart the engine. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the PFCW systemchecked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
NOTE:
If the FEB system stops working, the PFCW
system (if so equipped) will also stop work-
ing.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the PFCW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will sound, the
FEB system warning light (orange) will illuminate
and the warning message [Malfunction] will ap-
pear 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 PFCW system checked. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the Driver Attention
Alert system could result in serious injury
or death.
● The Driver Attention Alert system is only
a warning to inform the driver of a po-
tential lack of driver attention or
drowsiness. It will not steer the vehicle
or prevent loss of control.
● The Driver Attention Alert system does
not detect and provide an alert of the
driver’s lack of attention or fatigue in
every situation.
● It is the driver’s responsibility to:
● stay alert,
● drive safely,
● keep the vehicle in the traveling lane,
● be in control of the vehicle at all
times,
● avoid driving when tired,
● avoid distractions (texting, etc) .
The Driver Attention Alert system helps alert the
driver if the system detects a lack of attention or
driving fatigue.
DRIVER ATTENTION ALERT (if so
equipped)
5-72Starting and driving
Page 284 of 406
The system monitors driving style and steering
behavior over a period of time, and it detects
changes from the normal pattern. If the system
detects that driver attention is decreasing over a
period of time, the system uses audible and visual
warnings to suggest that the driver take a break.
DRIVER ATTENTION ALERT SYSTEM
OPERATION
If the system detects driver fatigue or that driver
attention is decreasing, the message “Take a
break?” appears in the vehicle information display
and a chime sounds when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h).
The system continuously monitors driver atten-
tion and can provide multiple warnings per trip.
The system resets and starts reassessing driving
style and steering behavior when the ignition
switch is cycled from on to off and back on.

DRIVER ATTENTION ALERT SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the Driver Attention Alert system. Failure
to operate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.

●The Driver Attention Alert system may
not operate properly and may not pro-
vide an alert in the following conditions:
– Poor road conditions such as an un- even road surface or pot holes.
– Strong side wind.
– If you have adopted a sporty driving style with higher cornering speeds or
higher rates of acceleration.
– Frequent lane changes or changes to vehicle speed.
● The Driver Attention Alert system will
not provide an alert in the following
conditions:
– Vehicle speeds lower than 37 mph (60 km/h).
– Short lapses of attention.
– Instantaneous distractions such as dropping an object.
System malfunction
If the Driver Attention Alert system malfunctions,
the system warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display and the function will
be stopped automatically.
Action to take
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in P (Park) position, turn the engine off
and restart the engine. If the system warning
message continues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
CAUTION
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),
follow these recommendations to obtain
maximum engine performance and ensure
the future reliability and economy of your
new vehicle. Failure to follow these rec-
ommendations may result in shortened
engine life and reduced engine
performance.
● Avoid driving for long periods at constant
speed, either fast or slow, and do not run the
engine over 4,000 RPM.
● Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
● Avoid quick starts.
● Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
● Do not tow a trailer for the first 500 mi
(805 km) . Your engine, axle or other parts
could be damaged.

Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient Driving
Tips to help you achieve the most fuel economy
from your vehicle.1. Use Smooth Accelerator and Brake
Pedal Application
● Avoid rapid starts and stops.
● Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application whenever possible.
● Maintain constant speed while commut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain Constant Speed
● Look ahead to try and anticipate and mini-
mize stops.
● Synchronizing your speed with traffic
lights allows you to reduce your number
of stops.
● Maintaining a steady speed can minimize
red light stops and improve fuel effi-
ciency.
3. Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
● Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to open windows to cool the vehicle
due to reduced engine load. ●
Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to use A/C to cool the vehicle due to
increased aerodynamic drag.
● Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling load.
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
● Observing the speed limit and not ex-
ceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where legally
allowed) can improve fuel efficiency due
to reduced aerodynamic drag.
● Maintaining a safe following distance be-
hind other vehicles reduces unnecessary
braking.
● Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
● Select a gear range suitable to road con-
ditions.
5. Use Cruise Control
● Using cruise control during highway driv-
ing helps maintain a steady speed.
● Cruise control is particularly effective in
providing fuel savings when driving on flat
terrains. 6.
Plan for the Shortest Route
● Utilize a map or navigation system to de-
termine the best route to save time.
7. Avoid Idling
● Shutting off your engine when safe for
stops exceeding 30–60 seconds saves
fuel and reduces emissions.
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
● Automated passes permit drivers to use
special lanes to maintain cruising speed
through the toll and avoid stopping and
starting.
9. Winter Warm Up
● Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel
economy.
● Vehicles typically need no more than
30 seconds of idling at start-up to effec-
tively circulate the engine oil before driv-
ing.
● Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating
temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling.
FUEL EFFICIENT DRIVING TIPS

10.Keeping your Vehicle Cool
● Park your vehicle in a covered parking
area or in the shade whenever possible.
● When entering a hot vehicle, opening the
windows will help to reduce the inside
temperature faster, resulting in reduced
demand on your A/C system. ●
Keep your engine tuned up.
● Follow the recommended scheduled main-
tenance.
● Keep the tires inflated to the correct pres-
sure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
● Keep the wheels in correct alignment. Im-
proper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
● Use the recommended viscosity engine oil.

mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in

section of this manual.
