2019 NISSAN ALTIMA ESP

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the LDW
system could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ This system is only a warning device
to inform the driver of a potential un-
intended lane departure. It will not
steer the vehicle or prevent loss of
control. It is the driver’s responsibility
to stay alert, drive safely, keep the ve-
hicle in the traveling lane, and be in
control of the vehicle at all times.The LDW system will operate when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds of approximately
70 km/h (45 mph) and above, and only
when the lane markings are clearly visible
on the road.
The LDW system monitors the lane mark-
ers on the traveling lane using the camera
unit
Alocated above the inside mirror.
The LDW system warns the driver that the
vehicle is beginning to leave the driving
lane with an indicator and a steering wheel
vibration. For additional information, refer
to “LDW system operation” in this section.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW) (if
so equipped)

∙ 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 cam-
era unit is damaged due to an accident,
it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Intelli-
gent Lane Intervention system could
result in serious injury or death.
∙ The Intelligent Lane Intervention sys-
tem will not steer the vehicle or pre-
vent loss of control. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the travel-
ing lane, and be in control of the ve-
hicle at all times.∙ The Intelligent Lane Intervention sys-
tem is primarily intended for use on
well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane mark-
ers in certain road, weather, or driving
conditions.
The Intelligent Lane Intervention system
must be turned on with the dynamic driver
assistance switch, every time the ignition is
placed in the ON position.
The Intelligent Lane Intervention system
will operate when the vehicle is driven at
speeds of approximately 70 km/h (45 mph)
and above, and only when the lane mark-
ings are clearly visible on the road.
The Intelligent Lane Intervention system
warns the driver when the vehicle has lef t
the center of the traveling lane with an in-
dicator and a steering wheel vibration. The
system helps assist the driver to return the
vehicle to the center of the traveling lane by
applying the brakes to the lef t or right
wheels individually (for a short period of
time).
The Intelligent Lane Intervention system
monitors the lane markers on the traveling
lane using the camera unit
Alocated
above the inside mirror.

INTELLIGENT LANE INTERVENTION (if
so equipped)

WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the seat
belt becomes wrapped around a child’s
neck with the ALR mode activated, the
child can be seriously injured or killed if
the seat belt retracts and becomes
tight. This can occur even if the vehicle
is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to re-
lease the child. If the seat belt cannot be
unbuckled or is already unbuckled, re-
lease the child by cutting the seat belt
with a suitable tool (such as a knife or
scissors) to release the seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in
this manual, child safety information is
available from many other sources, includ-
ing doctors, teachers, government traffic
safety offices, and community organiza-
tions. Every child is different, so be sure to
learn the best way to transport your child.There are three basic types of child re-
straint systems:
∙ Rear-facing child restraints
∙ Forward-facing child restraints
∙ Booster seats
The proper restraint depends on the child’s
size. Generally, infants up to about 1 year
and less than 20 lbs. (9 kg) should be placed
in rear-facing child restraints. Forward-
facing child restraints are available for chil-
dren who outgrow rear-facing child re-
straints and are at least 1 year old. Booster
seats are used to help position a vehicle
lap/shoulder belt on a child who can no
longer use a forward-facing child restraint.
WARNING
Infants and children need special pro-
tection. The vehicle’s seat belts may not
fit them properly. The shoulder belt may
come too close to the face or neck.
The lap belt may not fit over their small
hip bones. In an accident, an improperly
fitting seat belt could cause serious or
fatal injury. Always use appropriate
child restraints. All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved child
restraints for infants and small children.
For additional information, refer to “Child
restraints” in this section.
A child restraint may be secured in the ve-
hicle by using either the LATCH (Lower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) system
or with the vehicle seat belt. For additional
information, refer to “Child restraints” in this
section.
NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear
seat. Studies show that children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
This is especially important because
your vehicle has a supplemental re-
straint system (air bag system) for the
front passenger. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS)” in this section.
CHILD SAFETY
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-21

WARNING
∙When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front
seat. If the side air bag inflates, you may
be seriously injured. Be especially care-
ful with children, who should always be
properly restrained. Some examples of
dangerous riding positions are shown
in the illustrations.
∙ Do not use seat covers on the front or rear seatbacks. They may interfere
with side air bag inflation.

VARIABLE COMPRESSION TURBO
(if so equipped)
Your engine is equipped with a variable
compression ratio system called “Variable
Compression Turbo”. This system can vary
the engine compression ratio continu-
ously.
According to driving conditions, the system
applies optimum compression ratio auto-
matically to achieve both high output and
high fuel economy efficiency.This is not a physical gauge. It is a display
option in the vehicle information display
that can be selected. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Vehicle information dis-
play” in this section.
1Compression ratio status display
Displays the status of compression ra-
tio controlled by Variable Compression
Turbo. The lowest compression ratio
(8:1) and the highest (14:1) are displayed
as “Power” and ”Eco” respectively.
2Turbo charger boost pressure gauge
Displays the turbo charger boost pres-
sure.
NOTE:
Under some conditions, the compres-
sion ratio may not change. This is not a
malfunction of the system.
CAUTION
If the Variable Compression Turbo be-
comes faulty, the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) may come on. For additional
information, refer to “Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL)” in this section.
