2020 NISSAN MAXIMA sensor

• Do not cover or attach stickers, or install
any accessory near the sensors. This
could block sensor signals and/or cause
failure or malfunction.
• Do not attach metallic objects near the
radar sensor (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
• 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
detection capability.
• 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.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE

will illuminate.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the I-FCW system will resume automati-
cally.

snow, etc.) blocking the front radar sensor,
the I-FCW system will automatically be
canceled. The chime will sound and the
“Unavailable: Front Radar Obstruction” or
“Forward Driving Aids Temporarily Disabled
Front Sensor Blocked” warning message
will appear in the vehicle information dis-
play.

Action to take:
When the conditions listed above are no
longer present, the warning message will
no longer be available in the vehicle infor-
mation display. If the “Unavailable: Front Ra-
dar Obstruction” or “Forward Driving Aids
Temporarily Disabled Front Sensor
Blocked” warning message continues to
be displayed, have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN

tion” or “Forward Driving Aids Temporarily
Disabled Front Sensor Blocked” warning
message will appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
Action to take:
If the warning message appears, stop the
vehicle in a safe place, place the shif t lever
in the P (Park) position, and turn the engine
off. When the radar signal is temporarily
interrupted, clean the sensor area of the

structures or buildings (for example, long
bridges, deserts, snowfields, driving next to
long walls), the system may illuminate the
system warning light and display the “Un-
available: Front Radar Obstruction” or “For-
ward Driving Aids Temporarily Disabled
Front Sensor Blocked” message.
Action to take:
When the above driving conditions no lon-
ger exist, turn the system back on.
NOTE:
If the AEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem stops working, the I-FCW system will
also stop working.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the I-FCW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection
warning light (orange) will illuminate and
the warning message [Malfunction] will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display.
Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop
the vehicle in a safe location, turn the engine
off and restart the engine. If the warning light

WARNING
∙ The front air bags ordinarily will notinflate in the event of a side impact,
rear impact, rollover, or lower severity
frontal collision. Always wear your
seat belts to help reduce the risk or
severity of injury in various kinds of
accidents
∙ The front passenger air bag and pas- senger knee air bag will not inflate if
the passenger air bag status light is
lit. For additional information, refer to
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” in this section. ∙ The seat belts and the front air bags
are most effective when you are sit-
ting well back and upright in the seat.
The front air bags inflate with great
force. Even with the NISSAN Advanced
Air Bag System, if you are unre-
strained, leaning forward, sitting side-
ways or out of position in any way, you
are at greater risk of injury or death in
a crash. You may also receive serious
or fatal injuries from the front air bag
if you are up against it when it inflates.
Always sit back against the seatback and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel or instrument panel.
Always properly use the seat belts.
∙
The driver and front passenger seat
belt buckles are equipped with sensors
that detect if the seat belts are fas-
tened. The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag
System monitors the severity of a colli-
sion and seat belt usage, then inflates
the air bags as needed. Failure to prop-
erly wear seat belts can increase the
risk or severity of injury in an accident.
∙ The front passenger seat is equipped with an occupant classification sen-
sor (weight sensor) that turns the
front passenger air bag and passen-
ger knee air bag OFF under some con-
ditions. This sensor is only used in this
seat. Failure to be properly seated and
wearing the seat belt can increase the
risk or severity of injury in an accident.
For additional information, refer to
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” in this section.
∙ Keep hands on the outside of the steering wheel. Placing them inside
the steering wheel rim could increase
the risk that they are injured when the
front air bag inflates.WRS0031
