. The following conditions may re-
duce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles:
— Severe weather
— Road spray
— Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the
vehicle
. Do not attach stickers (including
transparent material), install ac-
cessories or apply additional
paint near the radar sensors.
These conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles .
Excessive noise (e.g. audio sys-
tem volume, open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be
heard.JVS0172XIllustration 1

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the
system will be deactivated automatically.
The “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”
warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
The systems are not available until the
conditions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be
caused by objects such as ice, frost or
dirt obstructing the radar sensors.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
RCTA system will also stop working.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the system will resume automati-
cally.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it
will turn off automatically. The system
malfunction warning message will appear
in the vehicle information display.NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the
RCTA system will also stop working.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If
the message continues to appear, have
the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the RCTA
system are located near the rear bumper.
Always keep the area near the radar
sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be
caused by objects such as ice, frost or
dirt obstructing the radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstruct-
ing the area around the radar sensors.

WARNING
.
Always observe the posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them.
. Do not use the cruise control
when driving under the following
conditions. Doing so could cause
a loss of vehicle control and result
in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL (if so equipped)

— When it is not possible to keepthe vehicle at a constant
speed
— When driving in heavy traffic
— When driving in traffic that varies speed
— When driving in windy areas
— When driving on winding or hilly roads
— When driving on slippery (rain, snow, ice, etc.) roads
CAUTION
On Manual Transmission (MT) model,
do not shift to the N (Neutral) posi-
tion without depressing the clutch
pedal when the cruise control is
operated. Should this occur, depress
the clutch pedal and turn the Cruise
ON/OFF switch off immediately. Fail-
ure to do so may cause engine
damage.
PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE CON-
TROL
. If the cruise control system malfunc-
tions, it will cancel automatically. The
CRUISE indicator in the vehicle infor-
mation display will then blink to warn
the driver.
. If the CRUISE indicator blinks, turn the
Cruise ON/OFF switch off and have
the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. The CRUISE indicator may blink when
the Cruise ON/OFF switch is turned
ON while pushing the RES/+, SET/-, or
CANCEL switch. To properly set the
cruise control system, perform the
following procedures.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at
speeds above 25 MPH (40 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control will automatically be
canceled if the vehicle slows down more
than approximately 8 MPH (13 km/h)
below the set speed.
Moving the shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position will cancel the cruise control.
Turning on cruise control
Push the Cruise ON/OFF switch. The
CRUISE indicator in the vehicle informa-
tion display will appear.
Setting cruising speed
1. Accelerate to the desired speed.
2. Push the SET/- switch and release it.
3. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
The vehicle will maintain the set speed.
Passing another vehicle:
Depress the accelerator pedal to accel-
erate. After releasing the accelerator
pedal, the vehicle will return to the pre-
viously set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed when going up or down steep hills.
In such cases, drive without the cruise
control.
Resetting to slower speed:
Use any one of the following methods to
reset to a slower speed.
. Lightly tap the foot brake pedal. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
push and release the SET/- switch.
. Push and hold the SET/- switch. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
release the SET- switch.
Starting and driving5-65

5-66Starting and driving
.Quickly push and release the SET/-
switch. This will reduce the vehicle
speed by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
Resetting to faster speed:
Use any one of the following methods to
reset to a faster speed.
. Depress the accelerator pedal. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
push and release the SET/- switch.
. Push and hold the RES/+switch. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
release the RES/+ switch.
. Quickly push and release the RES/+
switch. This will increase the vehicle
speed by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
Resuming at preset speed:
Push and release the RES/+ switch.
The vehicle will resume the last set
cruising speed when the vehicle speed is
over 25 MPH (40 km/h).
Cancelling cruising speed
Use any one of the following methods to
cancel the set speed.
. Push the CANCEL switch.
. Tap the foot brake pedal.
. Push the Cruise ON/OFF switch. The
CRUISE indicator will turn off.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the ICC
system could result in serious injury
or death.
.ICC is not a collision avoidance or
warning device. For highway use
only and it is not intended for
congested areas or city driving.
Failure to apply the brakes could
result in an accident.
. The ICC system is only an aid to
assist the driver. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
. Always observe posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them.
. Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using either cruise
control mode. Read and under-
stand the Owner’s Manual thor-
oughly before using the cruise
control. To avoid serious injury
or death, do not rely on the
system to prevent accidents or
to control the vehicle’s speed in
emergency situations. Do not use cruise control except in appropri-
ate road and traffic conditions.
. In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning
chime will not sound to warn you
if you are too close to the vehicle
ahead. Pay special attention to
the distance between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle ahead of you
or a collision could occur.
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with ProPILOT
assist, refer to “ProPILOT assist” (P.5-
86).
The ICC system maintains a selected
distance from the vehicle in front of you
within the speed range of 0 to 90 MPH (0
to 144 km/h) up to the set speed.
The set speed can be selected by the
driver between 20 to 90 MPH (32 to 144
km/h).
The vehicle travels at a set speed when
the road ahead is clear.
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes.
. Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode:
For maintaining a selected distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL
(ICC) (models without ProPILOT
assist) (if so equipped)

in front of you up to the preset speed.
. Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode:
For cruising at a preset speed.
