BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW)1 WITH REAR CROSS TRAFFIC
ALERT (RCTA) (if so equipped)
The BSW helps to alert the driver when
another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s
detection zone.
An indicator light located on the outside mirrors
1 will illuminate if the radar sensors
detect a vehicle in the detection zone.
Push the Warning 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 Settings 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).
Push the P arking Sensor System switch 5 to temporarily turn the RCTA system
off. When the system is off, the indicator light
6 on the switch will extinguish.
The radar sensors detect an approaching vehicle from up to 66 f t (20 m). The sensors are located on both sides of the vehicle near the rear and front
bumpers. The system gives visual and audible warnings if an approaching
vehicle is detected.
1 Blind Spot Warning is not a substitute for proper lane change procedures. The system will not prevent
contact with other vehicles or accidents. It may not detect every vehicle or object around you.

TOWING1
TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER UNIT (if so equipped)
The
Trailer Brake Controller Unit will assist with effective and smooth braking while
towing a trailer.
Operating Modes



•

A
utomatic: Automatic operation of trailer brake pressure based on gain and
boost settings.



•

Manual
: Manually applies trailer brake pressure without pressing the vehicle’s
brake pedal.
In automatic mode, the gain controls the
amount of trailer braking pressure. To set
the gain:



•

Pr
ess the
or button 1 to decrease or
increase the braking force supplied to the
trailer brakes. For example, a gain setting of
6.0 is a typical starting point for heavy loads.
In automatic mode, the boost can be set to change the feel of the trailer brake
when the vehicle’s brake pedal is pressed. To set the boost:



•

Pr

3 together. The amount of
pinch pressure applied to the levers will correlate to the amount of brake
pressure applied.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM1 (TPMS) WITH EASY-FILL
TIRE ALERT2
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.
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.
In addition to the Tire Pressure Low Add Air warning message, you can view
the individual tire’s pressure in the vehicle information display as well as the
recommended pressure, denoted by blue lettering, for each tire.
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.



T
o use the Easy-Fill Tire Alert:



1.
Move the shif t lever to the
P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2.

Plac
e the ignition switch in the ON position. Do not start the engine.



3.



A

dd 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 flashers will stop flashing.



5

. Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
When the lo w tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 1 minute and then
remains on, the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended 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. Refer to the “Technical and consumer information (section 10)” of your Owner’s Manual
for the location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
1 TPMS is not a substitute for regular tire pressure checks. 2 Vehicle must be on for the Easy-Fill Tire Alert to operate.
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.
