2020 NISSAN VERSA NOTE warning

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 drivable under normal conditions,
have the vehicle checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the RAB
system could result in serious injury or
death.∙ The RAB system is a supplemental aid
to the driver. It is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures. Always
use the side and rear mirrors and turn
and look in the direction you will move
before and while backing up. Never
rely solely on the RAB system. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
∙ There is a limitation to the RAB system capability. The RAB system is not ef-
fective in all situations.
The RAB system can assist the driver when
the vehicle is backing up and approaching
objects directly behind the vehicle.
The RAB system detects obstacles behind
the vehicle using the parking sensors
1
located on the rear bumper.
NOTE:
You can temporarily cancel the sonar
function in the vehicle, but the RAB sys-
tem will continue to operate. For addi-
tional information, please refer to “Rear
Sonar System (RSS)” in this section.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the RAB system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, and the RAB sys-
tem warning light will illuminate, and the
“System fault” warning message will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display.
Action to take
If the warning light illuminates, park the ve-
hicle in a safe location, turn the engine off,
and restart the engine. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the RAB sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
NOTE:
If the RAB system cannot be operated
temporarily, the RAB system warning
light blinks.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Observe the following items to ensure
proper operation of the system:∙ Always keep the parking sensors
1
clean.
∙ If the parking sensors are dirty, wipe them off with a sof t cloth while being
careful to not damage them. ∙ Do not subject the area around the
parking sensors
1to strong impact.
Also, do not remove or disassemble the
parking sensors. If the parking sensors
and peripheral areas are deformed in
an accident, etc., have the sensors
checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
∙ Do not install any stickers (including transparent stickers) or accessories on
the parking sensors
1and their sur-
rounding areas. This may cause a mal-
function or improper operation.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the AEB
with Pedestrian Detection system
could result in serious injury or death.
∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detectionsystem is a supplemental aid to the
driver. It is not a replacement for the
driver’s attention to traffic conditions
or responsibility to drive safely. It can-
not prevent accidents due to care-
lessness or dangerous driving
techniques. ∙ The AEB with Pedestrian Detection
system does not function in all driv-
ing, traffic, weather and road
conditions.
The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
can assist the driver when there is a risk of
a forward collision with the vehicle ahead in
the traveling lane or with a pedestrian
ahead in the traveling lane.
The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
uses a radar sensor located on the front of
the vehicle
Bto measure the distance to
the vehicle ahead in the same lane. For
pedestrians, the AEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system uses a camera installed be-
hind the windshield
Ain addition to the
radar sensor.

2. AEB with Pedestrian Detection emer- gency warning indicator (if so
equipped)
3. AEB with Pedestrian Detection system warning light
AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM OPERATION
The AEB system operates at speeds above
approximately 3 mph (5 km/h). For the pe-
destrian detection function, the system
operates at speeds between6–37mph(10
– 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
will firstly provide the warning to the driver
by flashing the vehicle ahead detection in-
dicator (yellow) in the vehicle information
display (if so equipped) and providing an
audible alert. If the driver applies the brakes
quickly and forcefully af ter the warning,
and the AEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem detects that there is still the possibility
of a forward collision, the system will auto-
matically increase the braking force. If the driver does not take action, the AEB
with Pedestrian Detection system issues
the second visual (flashing) (red and white)
in the vehicle information display (if so
equipped) and an audible warning. If the
driver releases the accelerator pedal, then
the system applies partial braking. If the
risk of a collision becomes imminent, the
AEB with Pedestrian Detection system ap-
plies harder braking automatically.
While the AEB with Pedestrian Detection
system is operating, you may hear the
sound of brake operation. This is normal
and indicates that the AEB with Pedestrian
Detection system is operating properly.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s brake lights come on when
any braking is performed by the AEB
with Pedestrian Detection system.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance
to the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well
as driving and roadway conditions, the sys-
tem may help the driver avoid a forward
collision or may help mitigate the conse-
quences if a collision should be unavoid-
able. If the driver is handling the steering
wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB with
Pedestrian Detection system will function
later or will not function.The automatic braking will cease under the
following conditions:
∙ When the steering wheel is turned to avoid a collision.
∙ When the accelerator pedal is de- pressed.
∙ When there is no longer a vehicle or a pedestrian detected ahead.
If the AEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem has stopped the vehicle, the vehicle
will remain at a standstill for approximately
2 seconds before the brakes are released.
