When the Steering Assist is in operation,
the Steering Assist status indicator, the
Steering Assist indicator, and the lane
marker indicatorandon the vehicle
information display turn green. A chime
sounds when the Steering Assist initially
activates.
When the Steering Assist deactivates, the
Steering Assist status indicator
, the
Steering Assist indicator, and the lane
marker indicatorandon the vehicle
information display turn gray and a chime
sounds twice.
Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)
With the Steering Assist active, when a
curve or strong cross wind exceeds the
capabilities of the system and your vehi-
cle approaches either the left or the right
side of the traveling lane, the I-LI system
will flash the I-LI indicator on the vehicle
information display and provide steering
wheel vibration to alert the driver. The
warning chime will also sound (4 rapid
beeps). Then, the I-LI system automati-
cally applies the brakes for a short period
of time to help assist the driver to return
the vehicle to the center of the traveling
lane. This action is in addition to any
Steering Assist actions and the warnings
cannot be turned off. For more informa-
tion, see “Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-
LI)” (P.5-51).WAF0639X
Hands on detection
When the Steering Assist is activated, it
monitors the driver’s steering wheel op-
eration.
If the steering wheel is not operated or
the driver takes his/her hands off the
steering wheel for a period of time, the
warning
appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display and the hands OFF warn-
ing light
illuminates.
If the driver does not operate the steering
wheel after the warning has been dis-
played and the warning light illuminated,
an audible alert sounds and both the
warning and the warning light flash. If the
driver still does not operate the steering wheel, the system applies a momentary
brake application to request the driver to
take control of the vehicle again.
If the driver still does not respond, the
system turns on the hazard flasher and
slows the vehicle to a complete stop.
The driver can cancel the deceleration at
any time by steering, braking, accelerat-
ing, or operating the ProPILOT Assist
switch.
WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for a
hands-free driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and
drive your vehicle safely. Failure to
do so could cause a collision result-
ing in serious personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of
firmly grips) the steering wheel, the
steering torque sensor may not detect
the driver’s hand(s) on the steering
wheel and a sequence of warnings
may occur. When the driver holds and
operates the steering wheel again, the
warnings turn off.

Steering Assist limitations
WARNING
.In the following situations, the
camera may not detect lane mar-
kers correctly or may detect lane
markers incorrectly and the
Steering Assist may not operate
properly:
— When driving on roads where
there are multiple parallel
lane markers, lane markers
that are faded or not painted
clearly, non-standard lane
markers, or lane markers cov-
ered with water, dirt, snow,
etc.
— When driving on roads with discontinued lane markers
— When driving on roads with a widening or narrowing lane
width
— When driving on roads where there are multiple lanes or
unclear lane markers due to
road construction
— When driving on roads where there are sharply contrasting
objects, such as shadows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams, or lines remaining
after road repairs (the Steer-
ing Assist could detect these
items as lane markers)
— When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or
separates
. Do not use the Steering Assist
under the following conditions
because the system may not
properly detect lane markers.
Doing so could cause a loss of
vehicle control and result in an
accident.
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, dust, etc.)
— When rain, snow, sand, etc., is thrown up by the wheels of
other vehicles
— When dirt, oil, ice, snow, water, or another object adheres to
the camera unit
— When the lens of the camera unit is foggy
— When strong light (for exam- ple, sunlight or high beams
from oncoming vehicles)
shines on the camera — When the headlights are not
bright due to dirt on the lens
or the headlights are off in
tunnels or darkness
— When a sudden change in brightness occurs (for exam-
ple, when the vehicle enters or
exits a tunnel or is under a
bridge)
— When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or
separates or where there are
temporary lane markers be-
cause of road construction
— When there is a lane closure due to road repairs
— When driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven
dirt road
— When driving on sharp curves or winding roads
— When driving on repeated up- hill and downhill roads
. Do not use the Steering Assist
under the following conditions
because the system will not op-
erate properly:
— When driving with a tire that is
not within normal tire condi-
Page 371 of 556

tions (for example, tire wear,
abnormal tire pressure, instal-
lation of a spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels)
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake or
suspension parts
— When an object such as a sticker or cargo obstructs the
camera
— When excessively heavy bag- gage is loaded in the rear seat
or luggage area of your vehi-
cle
— When the vehicle load capa- city is exceeded
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle
. Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and
the beep may not be heard.
. For the ProPILOT Assist system to
operate properly, the windshield
in front of the camera must be
clean. Replace worn wiper blades.
The correct size wiper blades
must be used to help make sure
the windshield is kept clean. Only
use Genuine NISSAN wiper blades,
or equivalent wiper blades, that are specifically designed for use
on your vehicle model and model
year. It is recommended that you
visit your NISSAN dealer for the
correct parts for your vehicle.
Steering Assist temporary standby
Automatic standby due to driving op-
eration:
When the driver activates the turn signal,
the Steering Assist is temporarily placed
in a standby mode. (The Steering Assist
restarts automatically when the operat-
ing conditions are met again.)
Automatic standby:
In the following cases, “Not Available
Front Camera Obstructed” warning mes-
sage appears in the vehicle information
display, along with the chime, and the
Steering Assist is placed in a temporary
standby mode. (The Steering Assist re-
starts automatically when the operating
conditions are met again.)
.
When lane markers on both sides are
no longer detected
. When a vehicle ahead is no longer
detected under approximately 37 MPH
(60 km/h) NOTE:
For ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link
equipped vehicles on a limited access
freeway as identified in the navigation
map data, the Steering Assist system
may continue to operate with visible
lane markers on the both sides, even
when the vehicle speed is below ap-
proximately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and a
vehicle is not detected ahead.
Steering Assist cancel
Under the following conditions, the Steer-
ing Assist cancels, and the Steering Assist
status indicator and the Steering Assist
indicator turn off:
.
When unusual lane markers appear in
the traveling lane or when the lane
marker cannot be correctly detected
for some time due to certain condi-
tions (for example, a snow rut, the
reflection of light on a rainy day, the
presence of several unclear lane mar-
kers)
. When the windshield wiper operates
in the high speed operation (the
Steering Assist is disabled when the
wiper operates for more than approxi-
mately 10 seconds)

CONVENTIONAL (fixed speed)
CRUISE CONTROL MODE
NOTE:
ProPILOT Assist provides no approach
warnings, automatic braking, or Steer-
ing Assist in the conventional (fixed
speed) cruise control mode.
This mode allows driving at a speed
between 20 to 90 MPH (30 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.)
