I-DC SYSTEM DISPLAY AND INDICA-
TORS
The display is located between the speed-
ometer and tachometer.
1. I-DC system switch indicator:
Indicates that the dynamic driver
assistance switch is ON.
2. Vehicle ahead detection indicator:
Indicates whether it detects a vehicle
in front of you.
3. I-DC system warning light (orange): The light comes on if there is a
malfunction in the I-DC system.
I-DC SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions of the I-DC system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.This system will not adapt auto-
matically to road conditions. Do
not use the system on roads with
sharp curves, or on icy roads, in
heavy rain or in fog.
. The I-DC system will not apply
brake control while the driver’s
foot is on the accelerator pedal.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the I-DC
system. This system does not
correct careless, inattentive or
absent-minded driving, or over-
come poor visibility in rain, fog, or
other bad weather. Decelerate
the vehicle speed by depressing
the brake pedal, depending on
the distance to the vehicle ahead
and the surrounding circum-
stances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.

Condition B:
Under the following conditions, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
I-DC system is automatically canceled.
The chime will sound, the I-DC system
warning light (orange) will come on and
the “FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION” warn-
ing message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
. When the radar sensor area of the
front bumper is covered with dirt or is
obstructed Action to take:
If the I-DC system warning light (orange)
comes on and the warning message
appears, stop 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 inter-
rupted, clean the sensor area of the front
bumper and restart the engine. If the
warning message continues to be dis-
played, have the I-DC system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
.
When driving on roads with limited
road structures or buildings (for ex-
ample, long bridges, deserts, snow
fields, driving next to long walls)
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the I-DC system will resume auto-
matically.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
Condition:
When the I-DC system is not operating
properly, the chime sounds and the
system warning light (“CRUISE” orange)
will come on.
Action to take:
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, and turn on the I-DC
system again.
If it is not possible to set the system or
the indicator stays on, it may indicate
that the system is malfunctioning.
Although the vehicle is still driveableunder normal conditions, have the ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the I-DC systemis
located below the front bumper.
The I-DC system is designed to automa-
tically 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 I-DC system may not detect
them. In these instances, the I-DC system
may not be able to decelerate the vehicle
properly. Be sure to check and clean the
sensor regularly.
To keep the I-DC system operating prop-
erly, be sure to observe the following:

information display)
AEB system warning light (on the instru-
ment panel)
Center multi-function control panel
AEB SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB system operates at speeds
above approximately 3 MPH (5 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB system will provide the first
warning to the driver by blinking the
vehicle ahead detection indicator in the
vehicle information display and providing
an audible warning. In addition, the AEB
system pushes the accelerator pedal up.
If the driver releases the accelerator
pedal, then the system applies partial
braking.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the AEB
system detects that there is still the
possibility of a forward collision, the
system will automatically increase the
braking force.
If a forward collision is imminent and the
driver does not take action, the AEB
system issues the second visual (flashing)
and audible warning and automatically
applies harder braking.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB sys-
tem.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving
and roadway conditions, the system may

illuminates.
NOTE:
The AEB system will be automatically
turned ON when the engine is restarted.
The I-FCW system is integrated into the
AEB system. There is not a separate
selection in the display for the I-FCW
system. When the AEB system is turned
off, the I-FCW system is also turned off.

When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction, the
radar sensor may detect vehicles in a
different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This
may cause the AEB system to work
inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition.If this
occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the vehicle ahead detection
indicator and sounding the chime un-
expectedly. You will have to manually
control the proper distance away from the vehicle traveling ahead.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
Condition A
When the radar sensor picks up interfer-
ence from another radar source, making
it impossible to detect a vehicle ahead,
the AEB system is automatically turned
off. The AEB system warning light (or-
ange)
will illuminate.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the AEB system will resume auto-
matically.

Condition B
Under the following conditions, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
AEB system is automatically turned off.

place, place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position and turn the engine off. Clean
the radar cover below the front bumper
with a soft cloth, and restart the engine. If
the AEB system warning light continues
to illuminate, have the AEB system
checked. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
. When driving on roads with limited
road structures or buildings (for ex-
ample, long bridges, deserts, snow
fields, driving next to long walls)

exist, the AEB system will resume auto-
matically.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the AEB system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, the AEB system warning light
(orange)
