BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW)
WITH REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA) (if so equipped)
The BSW system helps to alert the driver
when another vehicle moves into the
vehicle’s detection zone.
An indicator light 1 located near the outside
mirrors will illuminate if the radar sensors
detect a vehicle in the detection zone.
Push the w arning systems switch 2 to
temporarily turn the system off. When the
system is off, the indicator light
3 on the
switch and the indicator light
4 in the
vehicle information display will extinguish.
The indic ator light 3 on the switch will
also be off if all of the warning systems are
deactivated using the Setting menu.
The indic ator lights 3 and 4 will illuminate af ter the
ignition switch is ON and the BSW system is enabled. This
indicates that the BSW system is operational.
The RCTA system helps to alert the driver of an approaching vehicle when
the driver is backing out of a parking space. The system operates when the
shif t lever is in the R (REVERSE) position and the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h).
The radar sensors detect an approaching vehicle from up to 66 f t (20 m). The
sensors are located on both sides near the rear bumper. The system gives visual
and audible warnings if an approaching vehicle is detected.
The RCTA system can be turned on or off through the Driving Aids menu in the
vehicle information display.
Please see your Owner’s Manual for important safety information, system limitations, and additional operating and
feature information.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and the “
Starting and driving
(section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
HILL DESCENT CONTROL (if so equipped)
The Hill Descent Control system is designed to reduce driver workload when going
down steep hills. The Hill Descent Control system helps to control vehicle speed so
the driver can concentrate on steering the vehicle. To activate the system:
The 4WD shif t switch must be placed
in the LOCK position1 and the
vehicle speed must be under 15 mph
(25 km/h) on steeper hill grades.
The Hill Descent Control switch 2 must be on.
Please see your Owner’s Manual for important safety information,
system limitations, and additional operating and feature information.
For more information, refer to the “
Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
WITH EASY-FILL TIRE ALERT
A Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning
message will appear in the vehicle
information display
1 and the low tire
pressure warning light
2 will illuminate
when one or more tires are low in pressure
and air is needed.
• The tir e pressures should be checked when
the tires are cold. The tires are considered
cold af ter the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
When adding air to an under -inflated tire, the TPMS with Easy-Fill
Tire Alert provides visual and audible signals to help you inflate
the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the Easy-Fill Tire Alert:
1. Move the shif t lever to the P (PARK) position and apply the
parking brake.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.
3. Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard
warning lights will start flashing.
4. When the designated tir e pressure is reached, the horn will beep once and the
hazard warning lights will stop flashing.
5. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
Af ter tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph
(25 km/h). The Tire Pressure Low – Add Air warning message and low tire
pressure warning light
2 will extinguish.
When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for approximately 1 minute
and then remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a Nissan dealer for this service.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the
vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can
lower the temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire
inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light
2 to
illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tir e pressure (including the spare tire) of ten and always prior to long
distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please
refer to the “Technical and consumer information (section 10)” of your Owner’s
Manual for the location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
Please see your Owner’s Manual for important safety information, system limitations, and additional operating and
feature information.
For more information, refer to the “
Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving
(section 5)” and the “Do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
