CONVENTIONAL (fixed speed)
CRUISE CONTROL MODE
This mode allows driving at a speed
between 25 to 90 MPH (40 to 144 km/h)
without keeping your foot on the accel-
erator pedal.
WARNING
.In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning
chime does not sound to warn
you if you are too close to the
vehicle ahead, as neither the pre-
sence of the vehicle ahead nor
the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is
detected.
. Pay special attention to the dis-
tance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead of you or a
collision could occur.
. Always confirm the setting in the
ICC system display.
. Do not use the conventional
(fixed speed) cruise control mode
when driving under the following conditions.
— when it is not possible to keep
the vehicle at a set speed
— in heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in speed
— on winding or hilly roads
— on slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
— in very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of
vehicle control and result in an acci-
dent.

Warning light
When the system is not operating prop-
erly, the chime sounds and the system
warning light (orange) will come on.
Action to take:
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and
then perform the setting again.
If it is not possible to set or the indicator
stays on, it may indicate that the
system is malfunctioning. Although the
vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, have the vehicle checked. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN

dealer for this service.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
DC system could result in serious
personal injury or death.
.Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the I-DC sys-
tem. Read and understand the
Owner’s Manual thoroughly be-
fore using the I-DC system. To
avoid serious injury or death, do
not rely on the system to prevent
accidents or to control the vehi-
cle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the I-DC system
except in appropriate road and
traffic conditions.
. This system is only an aid to
assist the driver and is not a
collision warning or avoidance
device. It is the driver’s responsi-
bility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at
all times.
. As there is a performance limit to
the distance control function,
never rely solely on the I-DC
system. This system does not
correct careless, inattentive or absent-minded driving, or over-
come poor visibility in rain, fog, or
other bad weather. Decelerate
the vehicle speed by depressing
the brake pedal, depending on
the distance to the vehicle ahead
and the surrounding circum-
stances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. Always pay attention to the op-
eration of the vehicle and be
ready to manually decelerate to
maintain the proper following
distance. The I-DC system may
not be able to decelerate the
vehicle under some circum-
stances.
. This system only brakes and
moves the accelerator pedal up-
ward to help assist the driver to
maintain a following distance
from the vehicle ahead. Accelera-
tion should be operated by the
driver.
. The I-DC system does not control
vehicle speed or warn you when
you approach stationary and
slow moving vehicles. You must
pay attention to vehicle operation
to maintain proper distance from
vehicles ahead.

INTELLIGENT DISTANCE CONTROL
(I-DC) (if so equipped)

5-86Starting and driving
.The I-DC system automatically
decelerates your vehicle to help
assist the driver to maintain a
following distance from the vehi-
cle ahead. Manually brake when
deceleration is required to main-
tain a safe distance upon sudden
braking by the vehicle ahead or
when a vehicle suddenly appears
in front of you. Always stay alert
when using the I-DC system.
. If the vehicle ahead comes to a
stop, the vehicle decelerates to a
standstill within the limitations of
the system. The system will can-
cel with a warning chime once it
judges that the vehicle has come
to a standstill. To prevent the
vehicle from moving, the driver
must depress the brake pedal.
JVS0913X
The system is intended to assist the driver
to keep a following distance from the
vehicle ahead traveling in the same lane
and direction.
If the radar sensor
detects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will
reduce the vehicle speed to help assist
the driver to maintain a following dis-
tance.
The system automatically controls the
throttle and applies the brakes (up to
approximately 40% of vehicle braking
power) if necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is
approximately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

I-DC SYSTEM OPERATION
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the I-
DC system could result in seriouspersonal injury or death.
.
When the vehicle ahead detection
indicator light is not illuminated,
system will not control the vehi-
cle or warn the driver.
. Never place your foot under the
brake pedal. Your foot may be
caught when the system controls
the brake.
. Depending on the position of the
accelerator pedal, the system
may not be able to assist the
driver to release the accelerator
pedal appropriately.
The I-DC system brakes and moves the
accelerator pedal upward according to
the distance from and the relative speed
of the vehicle ahead to help assist the
driver in maintaining a following distance.
The system will decelerate as necessary
and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.
However, the I-DC system can only apply
up to approximately 40% of the vehicle’s
total braking power. If a vehicle moves
into the traveling lane ahead or if a
vehicle traveling ahead rapidly decele-
rates, the distance between vehicles
may become closer because the I-DC
system cannot decelerate the vehicle

quickly enough. If this occurs, the I-DC
system will sound a warning chime and
blink the system display to notify the
driver to take necessary action.
See “Approach warning” (P.5-89).

The I-DC system helps assist the driver to
keep a following distance to the vehicle
ahead by braking and moving the accel-
erator pedal upward in the normal driving
condition.
When a vehicle ahead is detected:
The vehicle ahead detection indicator
comes on.
When the vehicle approaches a vehicle
ahead:
.If the driver’s foot is not on the
accelerator pedal, the system acti-
vates the brakes to decelerate smoothly as necessary. If the vehicle
ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle
decelerates to a standstill within the
limitations of the system.
. If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accel-
erator pedal upward to assist the
driver to release the accelerator pedal.
When brake operation by the driver is
required:
The system alerts the driver by a warning
chime and blinking the vehicle ahead
detection indicator. If the driver’s foot is
on the accelerator pedal after the warn-
ing, the system moves the accelerator
pedal upward to assist the driver to
