INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL
(ICC) (for vehicles with ProPILOT
Assist)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the ICC sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The ICC system is only an aid to assist the driver and is not a collision warn-
ing or avoidance device. It is recom-
mended for highway use only and it is
not intended for city driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
∙ There are limitations to the ICC sys- tem capability. The ICC system does
not function in all driving, traffic,
weather, and road conditions. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, keep the vehicle in the
traveling lane, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
∙ Always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
Starting and driving5-103

The following are some conditions in which
the radar sensor cannot properly detect a
vehicle ahead and the system may not op-
erate properly:∙ When the sensor detection is reduced (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust
storms, sandstorms, and road spray
from other vehicles)
∙ Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves
∙ Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road
∙ If dirt, ice, snow or other material is cov- ering the radar sensor area
∙ A complicated-shaped vehicle such as a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/
trailer is near the vehicle ahead.
∙ Interference by other radar sources
∙ When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.
∙ When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or cargo area of
your vehicle.
The ICC system is designed to automati-
cally check the radar sensor’s operation
within the limitations of the system. The detection zone of the radar sensor is
limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the de-
tection zone for the ICC system to maintain
the selected distance from the vehicle
ahead. A vehicle ahead may move outside
of the detection zone due to its position
within the same lane of travel. Motorcycles
may not be detected in the same lane
ahead if they are traveling offset from the
center line of the lane. A vehicle that is en-
tering the lane ahead may not be detected
until the vehicle has completely moved into
the lane.
If this occurs, the ICC system may warn you
by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime. The driver may have
to manually control the proper distance
away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
The ICC system (with ProPILOT Assist) uses
a multi-sensing front camera. The follow-
ing are some conditions in which the cam-
era may not properly detect a vehicle and
detection of a vehicle ahead may be de-
layed:
∙ Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sandstorms,
and road spray from other vehicles) ∙ The camera area of the windshield is
fogged up or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
∙ Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera
∙ A sudden change in brightness occurs (for example, when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or shaded area or light-
ning flashes)
5-110Starting and driving

To keep the ICC system operating properly,
be sure to observe the following:∙ Always keep the sensor area clean.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensor.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the sensor. This could cause failure
or malfunction.
∙ Do not attach metallic objects near the sensor area (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
∙ Do not alter, remove, or paint the front bumper.
Before customizing or restoring the front
bumper, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
The camera sensor is located above the
inside mirror.
To keep the proper operation of the sys-
tems and prevent a system malfunction,
be sure to observe the following: ∙ Always keep the windshield clean.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the camera unit. ∙ Do not place reflective materials, such
as white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely affect the camera unit’s
capability of detecting the lane mark-
ers.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the camera unit. Do not touch
the camera lens or remove the screw
located on the camera unit.
If the camera unit is damaged due to an
accident, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
STEERING ASSIST
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Steer-
ing Assist could result in serious injury
or death. ∙ The Steering Assist is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedures
and is not designed to correct care-
less, inattentive or absent-minded
driving. The Steering Assist will not al-
ways steer the vehicle to keep it in the
lane. It is not designed to prevent loss
of control. It is the driver’s responsibil-
ity to stay alert, drive safely, keep the
vehicle in the traveling lane, and be in
control of the vehicle at all times.
∙ As there is a performance limit to the Steering Assist’s capability, never rely
solely on the system. The Steering
Assist does not function in all driving,
traffic, weather, and road conditions.
Always drive safely, pay attention
to the operation of the vehicle, and
manually control your vehicle
appropriately.
∙ The Steering Assist is intended for use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways with gentle (moderate) curves.
To avoid risk of an accident, do not use
this system on local or non-highway
roads.
5-114Starting and driving

∙ The Steering Assist only steers the ve-hicle to maintain its position in the
center of a lane. The vehicle will not
steer to avoid objects in the road in
front of the vehicle or to avoid a ve-
hicle moving into your lane.
∙ It is the driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in
the traveling lane, and be in control of
the vehicle at all times. Never take
your hands off the steering wheel
when driving. Always keep your hands
on the steering wheel and drive your
vehicle safely.
∙ Always drive carefully and attentively when using the Steering Assist. Read
and understand the Owner’s Manual
thoroughly before using the Steering
Assist. To avoid serious injury or
death, do not rely on the system to
prevent accidents or to control the ve-
hicle’s speed in emergency situations.
Do not use the Steering Assist except
in appropriate road and traffic
conditions.Steering Assist operation
The Steering Assist controls the steering
system to help keep your vehicle near the
center of the lane when driving. The Steer-
ing Assist is combined with the Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system. For additional
information, refer to “Intelligent Cruise Con-
trol (ICC) (for vehicles with ProPILOT Assist)”
in this section.
The Steering Assist can be activated when
the following conditions are met:
∙ The ICC system is activated.
∙ Lane markers on both sides are clearly detected.
∙ A vehicle ahead is detected (when the vehicle is driven at speeds under
37 mph [60 km/h]).
∙ The driver grips the steering wheel.
∙ The vehicle is driven at the center of the lane.
∙ The turn signals are not operated.
∙ The windshield wiper is not operated in the high (HI) speed operation (the
Steering Assist function is disabled
af ter the wiper operates for approxi-
mately 10 seconds).

Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)
When a curve or strong cross wind exceeds
the capabilities of the Steering Assist and
your vehicle approaches either the lef t or
the right side of the traveling lane, the I-LI
indicator (orange) on the instrument panel
flashes to alert the driver. Then, the I-LI sys-
tem automatically applies the brakes for a
short period of time to help assist the
driver to return the vehicle to the center of
the traveling lane. This action is in addition
to any Steering Assist actions.
5-116Starting and driving

WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for
hands-free driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and drive
your vehicle safely. Failure to do so
could cause a collision resulting in seri-
ous personal injury or death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of
firmly grips) the steering wheel, the
steering torque sensor may not detect
the driver’s hand(s) on the wheel and a
sequence of warnings may occur. When
the driver holds and operates the steer-
ing wheel again, the warnings turn off.
Steering Assist limitations
WARNING
∙ In the following situations, the cam- era may not detect lane markers cor-
rectly or may detect lane markers in-
correctly and the Steering Assist may
not operate properly: – When driving on roads where there
are multiple parallel lane markers,
lane markers that are faded or not
painted clearly, nonstandard lane
markers, or lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
– When driving on roads with dis- continued lane markers
– When driving on roads with a wid- ening or narrowing lane width
– When driving on roads where there are multiple lanes or unclear lane
markers due to road construction
– When driving on roads where there are sharply contrasting objects,
such as shadows, snow, water,
wheel ruts, seams, or lines remain-
ing af ter road repairs (the Steering
Assist could detect these items as
lane markers)
– When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or separates ∙ Do not use the Steering Assist under
the following conditions because the
system may not properly detect lane
markers. Doing so could cause a loss
of vehicle control and result in an
accident.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, dust, etc.)
– When rain, snow, sand, etc., is thrown up by the wheels of other
vehicles
– When dirt, oil, ice, snow, water, or another object adheres to the
camera unit
– When the lens of the camera unit is foggy
– When strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from on-
coming vehicles) shines on the
camera
– When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or the head-
lights are off in tunnels or darkness
– When a sudden change in bright- ness occurs (for example, when the
vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or is
under a bridge)
