I-FCW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-FCW system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.The I-FCW system cannot detect
all vehicles under all conditions.
. The radar sensor does not detect
the following objects: — Pedestrians, animals or obsta-
cles in the roadway
— Oncoming vehicles
— Crossing vehicles
. (Illustration A) The I-FCW system
does not function when a vehicle
ahead is a narrow vehicle, such as
a motorcycle.
. The radar sensor may not detect
a vehicle ahead in the following
conditions:
— Snow or heavy rain — Dirt, ice, snow or other materi-
al covering the radar sensor
— Interference by other radar sources
— Snow or road spray from tra- velling vehicles.
— Driving in a tunnel
. (Illustration B) When the vehicle
ahead is being towed.
. (Illustration C) When the distance
to the vehicle ahead is too close,
the beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
. (Illustration D) When driving on a
steep downhill slope or roads
with sharp curves.
. The system is designed to auto-
matically check the sensor’s func-
tionality, within certain
limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstruction
of the sensor area such as ice,
snow, stickers, for example. In
these cases, the system may not
be able to warn the driver prop-
erly. Be sure that you check, clean
and clear the sensor area regu-
larly.

.Excessive noise will interfere with
the warning chime sound, and
the chime may not be heard.
SSD0253
When driving on some roads, such as
winding, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or
roads which are under construction, the
radar sensor may detect vehicles in a
different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This
may cause the I-FCW system to work
inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be
affected by vehicle operation (steering
maneuver or traveling position in the
lane, etc.) or vehicle condition. If this
occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the vehicle ahead detection
indicator and sounding the chime un-
expectedly. You will have to manually
control the proper distance away from the vehicle traveling ahead.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
Condition A
When the radar sensor picks up interfer-
ence from another radar source, making
it impossible to detect a vehicle ahead,
the I-FCW system is automatically turned
off. The AEB system warning light (or-
ange) will illuminate.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the I-FCW system will resume auto-
matically.
Condition B
Under the following conditions, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
I-FCW system is automatically turned off.
The AEB system warning light (orange)
will illuminate and the “Forward Driving
Aids Temporarily Disabled Front Sensor
Blocked” or “Unavailable: Front Radar
Obstruction” warning message will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display.
.When the sensor area of the front
bumper is covered with dirt or is
obstructed
Action to take:
If the AEB system warning light (orange)
comes on, stop the vehicle in a safe place,
place the shift lever in the P (Park)
position and turn the engine off. Clean
the radar cover below the front bumper
with a soft cloth, and restart the engine. If
the warning light continues to illuminate,
have the I-FCW system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. When driving on roads with limited
road structures or buildings (for ex-
ample, long bridges, deserts, snow
fields, driving next to long walls)
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer
exist, the I-FCW system will resume auto- matically.SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the I-FCW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, the AEB system warning light
(orange) will illuminate and the warning
message "Malfunction" will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take:
If the warning light (orange) illuminates,
stop the vehicle in a safe location. Turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If
the warning light continues to illuminate,
have the I-FCW system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensoris located on the front of
the vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly,
be sure to observe the following:
. Always keep the sensor area of the
front bumper clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas
around the sensor.
. Do not cover or attach stickers or
similar objects on the front bumper
near the sensor area. This could cause
failure or malfunction.
. Do not attach metallic objects near
the sensor area (brush guard, etc.).
This could cause failure or malfunc- tion.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
bumper. It is recommended you con-
tact a NISSAN dealer before customiz-
ing or restoring the front bumper.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
RAB system could result in serious
injury or death.
.The RAB system is a supplemen-
tal 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 respon-
sibility 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 sys-
tem is not effective in all situa-
tions.
The RAB system can assist the driver
when the vehicle is backing up and
approaching objects directly behind the
vehicle.
WAF0077X
The RAB system detects obstacles behind
the vehicle using the rear sonarlocated
on the rear bumper.
NOTE:
You can temporarily cancel the sonar
function in the vehicle, but the RAB
system will continue to operate. For
additional information, see “Rear Sonar
System (RSS)” (P.5-136).

RAB SYSTEM OPERATION
When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is less than
approximately 9 MPH (15 km/h), the RAB
system operates.
If a risk of a collision with an obstacle is
detected when your vehicle is backing up,the RAB system warning indicator will
flash in the vehicle information display, a
red frame will appear in the center display
(models with the Intelligent Around
View
Monitor system), and the system
will chime three times. The system will
then automatically apply the brakes. After
the automatic brake application, the dri-
ver must depress the brake pedal to
maintain brake pressure.
NOTE:
. The stop lights of the vehicle come
on when braking is performed by
the RAB system.
. When the brakes operate, a noise
may be heard. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
TURNING THE RAB SYSTEM ON/OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the
RAB system ON or OFF.
