Illustration 5:The side BSW/RCTA indicator
light illuminates if a vehicle enters the de-
tection zone from either side. Illustration 6:
If the driver activates the
turn signal while another vehicle is in the
detection zone, then the system chimes
(twice) and the side BSW/RCTA indicator
light flashes.
NOTE:
• If the driver activates the turn signal before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side BSW/RCTA indicator
light will flash but no chime will sound
when the other vehicle is detected. • The radar sensors may not detect a ve-
hicle which is traveling at about the
same speed as your vehicle when it en-
ters the detection zone.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the sys-
tem will be deactivated automatically.
The “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”
warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
The system is not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-
porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog. The blocked condi-
tion 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 and I-BSI systems (if so equipped)
will also stop working.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.

Malfunction
If the BSW 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 and I-BSI systems (if so equipped)
will also stop working.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the mes-
sage continues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsO1for the BSW and
RCTA systems are located near the rear
bumper. Always keep the area near the ra-
dar sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-
porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused
by objects such as ice, frost or dirt ob-
structing the radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing
the area around the radar sensors. Do not attach stickers (including transpar-
ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around
the radar sensors. It is recommended that
you consult a NISSAN dealer if the area
around the radar sensors is damaged due
to a collision.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the I-BSI
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• The I-BSI system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedure
and is not designed to prevent con-
tact with vehicles or objects. When
changing lanes, always use the side
and rear mirrors and turn and look in
the direction you will move to ensure
it is safe to change lanes. Never rely
solely on the I-BSI system.
• There is a limitation to the detection
capability of the radar or the sonar.
Not every moving object or vehicle
will be detected. Using the I-BSI sys-
tem under some road, ground, lane
marker, traffic or weather conditions
could lead to improper system op-
eration. Always rely on your own op-
eration to avoid accidents.
The I-BSI system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when
changing lanes, and helps assist the driver
to return the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane. The I-BSI system uses radar sensors
O1
installed near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane. In addi-
tion to the radar sensors, the I-BSI system
uses a camera
O2installed behind the
windshield to monitor the lane markers of
your traveling lane. The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the detec-
tion zone shown as illustrated.
The detection zone starts from the outside
mirror of your vehicle and extends approxi-
mately 10f t (3.0m) behind the rear bumper,
and approximately 10f t (3.0 m) sideways.

I-BSI SYSTEM OPERATION
1Side indicator light
2BSW indicator
3Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention (I-BSI)
indicator
4ProPILOT Assist switch
The I-BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light (1)
illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, the sys-
tem chimes (twice) and the side indicator
light flashes. The side indicator light contin-
ues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone. The brightness
of the side indicator light is adjusted auto-
matically depending on the brightness of
the ambient light.
If the I-BSI system is ON and your vehicle
approaches a lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, the system
chimes (three times) and the side indicator
light flashes. The I-BSI system activates by
controlling the steering input of the vehicle
for a short period of time to help return the
vehicle back to the center of the driving
lane. The I-BSI system operates regardless
of turn signal usage.

NOTE:
• I-BSI warning and system applicationwill only be activated if the side indica-
tor light is already illuminated when
your vehicle approaches a lane marker.
If another vehicle comes into the de-
tection zone af ter your vehicle has
crossed a lane marker, no I-BSI warn-
ing or system application will be acti-
vated. For additional information, see
“I-BSI driving situations” (P. 5-68).
• The I-BSI system is typically activated prior to the Intelligent Lane Interven-
tion (I-LI) system when your vehicle is
approaching a lane marker.
To turn on the I-BSI system, push the Pro-
PILOT Assist switch on the steering wheel
af ter starting the engine. The I-BSI indica-
tor will illuminate. Push the ProPILOT Assist
switch again to turn off the I-BSI system.
The I-BSI indicator will turn off.
