2018 NISSAN PATHFINDER Owner´s Manual

When the camera image is shown on the
center display, the system shows the sonar
indicator regardless of the shif t lever posi-
tion.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front and rear
views indicate different distances to the
object.
When the objects are detected, the indica-
tor (green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of the
blinking and the rate of the tone increase.
When the vehicle is very close to the object,
the indicator stops blinking and turns red,
and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop af ter 3 sec-
onds when an object is detected by only
the corner sonar and the distance does
not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no
longer near the vehicle.
TURNING ON AND OFF THE SONAR
FUNCTION
When the Sonar key is selected, the indica-
tor will turn off and the sonar will be turned
off temporarily. The Moving Object Detec-
tion (MOD) system will also be turned off at
the same time. For additional information,
refer to “Moving Object Detection (MOD) in
this section. When the Sonar key is selected
again, the indicator will turn on and the
sonar will turn back on.In the below cases, the sonar will be turned
back on automatically:
∙ When the shif t lever is placed in the “R” (Reverse) position.
∙ When the CAMERA or CAMERA/
button is pressed and a screen other
than the camera view is shown on the
display.
∙ When vehicle speed decreases below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).

WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the sonar function. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death.
∙ Inclement weather or ultrasonic sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air
brakes or a pneumatic drill may affect
the function of the system, including
reduced performance or a false
activation.
∙ The system is not designed to prevent contact with small or moving objects. ∙ The system will not detect small ob-
jects below the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or
on the ground.
∙ The system may not detect the fol- lowing objects:
– Fluff y objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
∙ If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned
or bent, the sensing zone may be al-
tered causing inaccurate measure-
ment of objects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not
be heard.

System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
Camera setting menu (the setting items
are grayed out), the sonar system may be
malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of
snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the
surface of the sonar sensors when
cleaning. If the sensors are covered, the
accuracy of the sonar function will be
diminished.

WARNING
∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-structions for proper use of the Mov-
ing Object Detection system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
∙ The MOD system is not a substitute for proper vehicle operation and is not
designed to prevent contact with ob-
jects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirrors and rearview mirror and turn
and check the surroundings to ensure
it is safe to maneuver.
∙ The system is deactivated at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
∙ The MOD system is not designed to detect surrounding stationary
objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when
backing out of garages, maneuvering in
parking lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects
by using image processing technology on
