2018 NISSAN QASHQAI steering wheel

5-66Starting and driving
a vehicle ahead, this system automati-
cally accelerates or decelerates your ve-
hicle according to the speed of the
vehicle ahead. Depress the accelerator
to properly accelerate your vehicle when
acceleration is required for a lane change.
Depress the brake pedal when decelera-
tion is required to maintain a safe dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead due to its
sudden braking or if a vehicle cuts in.
Always stay alert when using the ICC
system.

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode switches
The system is operated by a CRUISE ON/
OFF switch and four control switches, all
mounted on the steering wheel.
1. RES/+ switch:Resumes set speed or increases speed
incrementally.
2. CANCEL switch: Deactivates the system without eras-
ing the set speed.
3. SET/- switch:
Sets desired cruise speed, reduces
speed incrementally. 4. CRUISE ON/OFF switch:
Master switch to activate the system
5. DISTANCE switch: Changes the vehicle’s following dis-
tance:
.Long.Middle.Short

5-72Starting and driving
safe vehicle distance if:
.The chime sounds.
. The vehicle ahead detection indicator
blinks.
The warning chime may not sound in
some cases when there is a short dis-
tance between vehicles. Some examples
are:
. When the vehicles are traveling at the
same speed and the distance be-
tween vehicles is not changing
. When the vehicle ahead is traveling
faster and the distance between ve-
hicles is increasing
. When a vehicle cuts in near your
vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when:
. Your vehicle approaches other vehi-
cles that are parked or moving slowly.
. The accelerator pedal is depressed,
overriding the system.
NOTE:
The approach warning chime may
sound and the system display may
blink when the radar sensor detects
objects on the side of the vehicle or on
the side of the road. This may cause the
ICC system to decelerate or accelerate
the vehicle. The radar sensor may de-
tect these objects when the vehicle is
driven on winding roads, narrow roads, hilly roads or when entering or exiting a
curve. In these cases you will have to
manually control the proper distance
ahead of your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be af-
fected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or driving position in the lane)
or traffic or vehicle condition (for example,
if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage).
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following
conditions and the control is automati-
cally canceled.
.
When the vehicle ahead is not de-
tected and your vehicle is traveling
below the speed of 15 MPH (24 km/h)
. When the system judges the vehicle is
at standstill
. When the shift lever is not in the D
(Drive) position or manual shift mode
. When the parking brake is applied
. When the VDC system is turned off
. When VDC (including the traction
control system) operates
. When distance measurement be-
comes impaired due to adhesion of
dirt or obstruction to the sensor
. When a wheel slips .
When the radar signal is temporarily
interrupted
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the ICC system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.The system is primarily intended
for use on straight, dry, open
roads with light traffic. It is not
advisable to use the system in
city traffic or congested areas.
. This system will not adapt auto-
matically to road conditions. This
system should be used in evenly
flowing traffic. Do not use the
system on roads with sharp
curves, or on icy roads, in heavy
rain or in fog.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the ICC sys-
tem. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-
minded driving, or overcome

AEB SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB system will function when your
vehicle is driven at speeds above approxi-
mately 3 MPH (5 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB system will firstly provide the
warning to the driver by flashing the
warning (yellow) in the vehicle informa-
tion display and providing an audible
alert.
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 the driver does not take action, the AEB
system issues the second visual (flashing)
(red) and audible warning. If the driver
releases the accelerator pedal, then the
system applies partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes immi-
nent, the AEB system applies harder
braking automatically.
While the AEB system is operating, you
may hear the sound of brake operation.
This is normal and indicates that the AEB
system is operating properly.
Starting and driving5-83

5-84Starting and driving
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
help the driver avoid a forward collision or
may help mitigate the consequences of a
collision should one be unavoidable.
If the driver is handling the steering
wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB
system will function later or will not
function.
The automatic braking will cease under
the following conditions:
.When the steering wheel is turned as
far as necessary to avoid a collision.
. When the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed.
. When there is no longer a vehicle
detected ahead.
If the AEB system has stopped the vehicle,
the vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approximately 2 seconds before the
brakes are released.

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem will function when your vehicle is
driven at speeds above approximately 3
MPH (5 km/h).
For the pedestrian detection function, the
AEB with pedestrian detection system
operates at speeds between 6 – 37 MPH
(10 – 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB with pedestrian detection system
will firstly provide the warning to the
driver by flashing the warning (yellow) in
the vehicle information display and pro-
viding an audible alert.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the AEB
with pedestrian detection system detects
that there is still the possibility of a
forward collision, the system will auto-
matically increase the braking force.
If the driver does not take action, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system issues
the second visual (flashing) (red) and
audible warning. If the driver releases
the accelerator pedal, then the system
applies partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes immi-
nent, the AEB with pedestrian detection
system applies harder braking automati-

While the AEB with pedestrian detection
system is operating, you may hear the
sound of brake operation. This is normal
and indicates that the AEB with pedes-
trian detection system is operating prop-
erly.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s stop lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB with
pedestrian detection system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well
as driving and roadway conditions, the
system may help the driver avoid a
forward collision or may help mitigate
the consequences of a collision should
one be unavoidable.
If the driver is handling the steering
wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB
with pedestrian detection system will
function later or will not function.

pressed.
. When there is no longer a vehicle or
pedestrian detected ahead. If the AEB with pedestrian detection
system has stopped the vehicle, the
vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approximately 2 seconds before the
brakes are released.
