Starting and driving5-41

●If the CRUISE indicator light blinks, turn the
cruise control switch off and have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● The CRUISE indicator light may blink when
the cruise control switch is turned ON while
pushing the RES/+, SET/-, or CANCEL
switch. To properly set the cruise control
system, use the following procedures.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driving
under the following conditions:
●When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed.
● In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in
speed.
● On winding or hilly roads.
● On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.) .
● In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed be-
tween 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
CRUISE ON/OFF switch ON. The CRUISE indi-
cator light in the vehicle information display will
illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to
the desired speed, push the SET/- switch and
release it. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Your vehicle maintains the set speed.
● To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previously
set speed.
● The vehicle may not maintain the set speed
when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods.
● Push the CANCEL switch.
● Tap the brake pedal.
● Push the CRUISE ON/OFF switch off. The
CRUISE indicator light in the vehicle infor-
mation display goes out. The cruise control is automatically canceled if:
● You depress the brake pedal while pushing
the RES/+ or SET/- switch. The preset
speed is deleted from memory.
● The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph
(13 km/h) below the set speed.
● You move the shift lever to N (Neutral) .
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following three methods.
● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the SET/- switch.
● Push and hold the RES/+ switch. When the
vehicle attains the speed you desire, release
the switch.
● Push and release the RES/+ switch. Each
time you do this, the set speed increases by
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one
of the following three methods.
● Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the ve-
hicle attains the desired speed, push the
SET/- switch and release it.
● Push and hold the SET/- switch. Release the
switch when the vehicle slows to the desired
speed.

●Push and release the SET/- switch. Each
time you do this, the set speed decreases by
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the RES/+ switch. The vehicle returns to
the last set cruising speed when the vehicle
speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
To turn off the cruise control, use one of the
following three methods.
● Push the CANCEL switch.
● Tap the brake pedal.
● Push the CRUISE ON/OFF switch off. The
CRUISE indicator light in the vehicle infor-
mation display goes out.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the ICC system
could result in serious injury or death.
●ICC is not a collision avoidance or warn-
ing device. It is for highway use only and
it is not intended for congested areas or
city driving. Failure to apply the brakes
could result in an accident.
● The ICC 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.
● Always observe posted speed limits
and do not set the speed over them.
● Always drive carefully and attentively
when using the ICC system. Read and
understand the Owner’s Manual thor-
oughly before using the ICC system. To
avoid serious injury or death, do not rely
on the system to prevent accidents or to
control the vehicle’s speed in emer-
gency situations. Do not use the ICC
system except in appropriate road and
traffic conditions. ●
In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode, a warning chime will not
sound to warn you if you are too close
to the vehicle ahead. Pay special atten-
tion to the distance between your ve-
hicle and the vehicle ahead of you or a
collision could occur.
The ICC system maintains a selected distance
from the vehicle in front of you within the speed
range of 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144 km/h) up to the
set speed. The set speed can be selected by the
driver between 20 to 90 mph (32 to 144 km/h).
The vehicle travels at a set speed when the road
ahead is clear.
The ICC system can be set to one of two cruise
control modes: ● Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode: For maintaining a selected distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
of you up to the preset speed
● Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode: For cruising at a preset speed

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE
In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode,
the ICC system automatically maintains a se-
lected distance from the vehicle traveling in front
of you according to that vehicle’s speed (up to
the set speed) , or at the set speed when the road
ahead is clear.
The ICC system is intended to enhance the op-
eration of the vehicle when following a vehicle
traveling in the same lane and direction.
LSD2727LSD2731
Starting and driving5-45

If the radar sensorBdetects a slower moving
vehicle ahead, the system will reduce the vehicle
speed so that your vehicle follows the vehicle in
front at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the throttle
and applies the brakes (up to approximately 40%
of vehicle braking power) if necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approxi-
mately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.
LSD2679
5-46Starting and driving

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE OPERATION
The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is
designed to maintain a selected distance from
the vehicle in front of you and can reduce the
speed to match a slower vehicle ahead. The
system will decelerate the vehicle as necessary
and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the
vehicle decelerates to a standstill. However, the
ICC system can only apply up to 40% of the
vehicle’s total braking power.
This system should only be used when traffic
conditions allow vehicle speeds to remain fairly
constant or when vehicle speeds change gradu-
ally. If a vehicle moves into the traveling lane
ahead or if a vehicle traveling ahead rapidly de-
celerates, the distance between vehicles may
become closer because the ICC system cannot
decelerate the vehicle quickly enough. If this oc-
curs, the ICC system will sound a warning chime
and blink the system display to notify the driver to
take necessary action.
The system will cancel and a warning chime will
sound if the speed is below approximately
15 mph (24 km/h) and a vehicle is not detected
ahead. The system will also disengage when the
vehicle goes above the maximum set speed.For additional information, refer to “Approach
warning” in this section.
The following items are controlled in the Vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode:
● When there are no vehicles traveling ahead,
the Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode maintains the speed set by the driver.
The set speed range is between approxi-
mately 20 and 90 mph (32 and 144 km/h).
● When there is a vehicle traveling ahead, the
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
adjusts the speed to maintain the distance,
selected by the driver, from the vehicle
ahead. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the limitations of the system. The system will
cancel once it judges a standstill with a
warning chime.
● When the vehicle traveling ahead has moved
out from its lane of travel, the Vehicle-to-
vehicle distance control mode accelerates
and maintains vehicle speed up to the set
speed. The ICC system does not control vehicle speed
or warn you when you approach stationary and
slow moving vehicles. You must pay attention to
vehicle operation to maintain proper distance
from vehicles ahead when approaching toll gates
or traffic congestion.
