(1) First replacement interval is 105,000
miles (168,000 km) or 84 months. Af ter
first replacement, replace every 75,000
miles (120,000 km) or 60 months.

9-40Maintenance and schedules

These data can help provide a better un-
derstanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data
are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (e.g.,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as
law enforcement, could combine the EDR
data with the type of personally identif ying
data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to
the vehicle manufacturer and NISSAN
dealer, other parties, such as law enforce-
ment, that have the special equipment, can
read the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR.
EDR data will only be accessed with the
consent of the vehicle owner or lessee or
as otherwise required or permitted by law.ADDITIONAL DATA RECORDING (on
vehicles equipped with optional
ProPILOT Assist)
If your vehicle is equipped with the optional
ProPILOT Assist, it will also be equipped
with a supplemental vehicle data record-
ing function.
The data recording function is designed to
record such data as:
• Driver operational status of accelerator,brakes, steering, etc.
• Detection status of a vehicle ahead and lane markers
• Vehicle information including distance to vehicle ahead and lateral position
• Information on the operation of the Pro- PILOT Assist and other crash avoidance
features
• ProPILOT Assist malfunction diagnosis information
• External images from multi-sensing front camera (Available only when SRS air bag
or AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
is activated)
ProPILOT Assist does not record conversa-
tions, sounds or images of the inside of the
vehicle. To read this vehicle data, special equip-
ment is required and access to the vehicle
or the recording unit is needed. This vehicle
data will only be accessed with the consent
of the vehicle owner or lessee or as other-
wise required or permitted by law.
If downloaded, NISSAN may use the data
recorded for the purpose of improving
NISSAN's vehicle safety performance.
NISSAN will not disclose/provide the re-
corded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or
with the consent of the lessee
• In response to an official request from law enforcement, a court order, governmen-
tal agency, or other legally enforceable
requests
• For use as part of NISSAN's defense of litigation
• For research purposes af ter the data is modified such that it is no longer tied to a
specific vehicle or vehicle owner

NISSAN may collect about you, please visit our
