PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE CON-
TROL
.If the cruise control system malfunc-
tions, it will cancel automatically. The
CRUISE indicator in the vehicle infor-
mation display will then blink to warn
the driver.
. If the CRUISE indicator blinks, turn the
Cruise ON/OFF switch off and have
the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. The CRUISE indicator may blink when
the Cruise ON/OFF switch is turned
ON while pushing the RES/+, SET/-, or
CANCEL switch. To properly set the
cruise control system, perform the
following procedures.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at
speeds above 25 MPH (40 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
The cruise control will automatically be
canceled if the vehicle slows down more
than approximately 8 MPH (13 km/h)
below the set speed.
Moving the shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position will cancel the cruise control.
Turning on cruise control
Push the Cruise ON/OFF switch. The
CRUISE indicator in the vehicle informa-
tion display will appear.
Setting cruising speed
1. Accelerate to the desired speed.
2. Push the SET/- switch and release it.
3. Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal.
The vehicle will maintain the set speed.
Passing another vehicle:
Depress the accelerator pedal to accel-
erate. After releasing the accelerator
pedal, the vehicle will return to the pre-
viously set speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed when going up or down steep hills.
In such cases, drive without the cruise
control.
Resetting to slower speed:
Use any one of the following methods to
reset to a slower speed.
. Lightly tap the foot brake pedal. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
push and release the SET/- switch.
. Push and hold the SET/- switch. When
the vehicle reaches the desired speed,
release the SET- switch. .
Quickly push and release the SET/-
switch. This will reduce the vehicle
speed by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).

INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL
(ICC)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the ICC
system could result in serious injury
or death.
. The ICC system is only an aid to
assist the driver and is not a
collision warning or avoidance
device. It is recommended for
highway use only and it is not
intended for city driving. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, and be in con-
trol of the vehicle at all times.
. There are limitations to the ICC
system capability. The ICC system
does not function in all driving,
traffic, weather, and road condi-
tions. It is the driver’s responsi-
bility to stay alert, drive safely,
keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
. Always observe posted speed
limits and do not set the speed
over them. .
The ICC system does not react to
stationary and slow moving vehi-
cles.
. Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the ICC system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using
the ICC system. To avoid serious
injury or death, do not rely on the
system to prevent accidents or to
control the vehicle’s speed in
emergency situations. Do not
use the ICC system except in
appropriate road and traffic con-
ditions.
ICC system operation
The ICC system is designed to maintain a
selected distance from the vehicle in front
of you and can reduce the speed to
match a slower vehicle ahead. The sys-
tem decelerates the vehicle as necessary
and if the vehicle ahead comes to a stop,
the vehicle decelerates to a standstill.
However, the ICC system can only apply
up to 40% of the vehicle’s total braking
power. This system should only be used
when traffic conditions allow vehicle
speeds to remain fairly constant or when
vehicle speeds change gradually. If a
vehicle moves into the traveling lane

5-78Starting and driving
When the ICC system detects a vehicle
ahead, the vehicle ahead detection indi-
cator and the speed control status in-
dicator (distance control mode)
illuminates (solid green
).
Vehicle ahead stops:
When the vehicle ahead decelerates to
stop, your vehicle decelerates to a stand-
still. Once your vehicle stops, the ICC
system automatically applies the brakes
to keep the vehicle stopped. When your
vehicle is at a standstill, the “(RES+) Press
to start” message is displayed on the
vehicle information display.
NOTE:
When your vehicle stops for less than 3
seconds, your vehicle will automatically
follow the vehicle as it accelerates from
a stop.
Vehicle ahead accelerates:
When your vehicle is stopped and the
vehicle ahead begins to accelerate, push
the RES+ switch or lightly depress the
accelerator pedal. The ICC system starts
to follow the vehicle ahead.
Vehicle ahead not detected:
When a vehicle is no longer detected
ahead, the ICC system gradually acceler-
ates your vehicle to resume the pre-
viously set vehicle speed. The ICC system then maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns
off and speed control status indicator
(maintain speed control mode) illumi-
nates (green outline
).
The ICC system gradually accelerates to
the set speed, but you can depress the
accelerator pedal to quickly accelerate.
When a vehicle is no longer detected and
your vehicle is traveling under approxi-
mately 15 MPH (24 km/h), the ICC system
automatically cancels.
WAF0059X
When passing another vehicle, the set
speed indicatorflashes when the
vehicle speed exceeds the set speed.
The vehicle ahead detection indicator
turns off when the area ahead of the
vehicle is open. When the pedal is re-
leased, the vehicle returns to the pre-
viously set speed. Even though your
vehicle speed is set in the ICC system,
you can depress the accelerator pedal
when it is necessary to accelerate your
vehicle rapidly.
.Motorcycles traveling offset in the
travel lane
The following are some conditions in
which the radar sensor cannot properly
detect a vehicle ahead and the system
may not operate properly:
. When the sensor detection is reduced
(conditions such as rain, snow, fog,
dust storms, sandstorms, and road
spray from other vehicles)
. Driving on a steep downhill slope or
roads with sharp curves
. Driving on a bumpy road surface, such
as an uneven dirt road
. If dirt, ice, snow or other material is
covering the radar sensor area
. A complicated-shaped vehicle such as
a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/
trailer is near the vehicle ahead.
. Interference by other radar sources
. When excessively heavy baggage is
loaded in the rear seat or cargo area
of your vehicle.
The ICC system is designed to automati-
cally check the radar sensor’s operation
within the limitations of the system
The detection zone of the radar sensor is
limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the
detection zone for the ICC system to
maintain the selected distance from the
vehicle ahead. A vehicle ahead may move outside of the detection zone due to its
position within the same lane of travel.
Motorcycles may not be detected in the
same lane ahead if they are traveling
offset from the center line of the lane. A
vehicle that is entering the lane ahead
may not be detected until the vehicle has
completely moved into the lane.
If this occurs, the ICC system may warn
you by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime. The driver may have
to manually control the proper distance
away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
The ICC system (with ProPILOT assist)
uses a multi-sensing front camera. The
following are some conditions in which
the camera may not properly detect a
vehicle and detection of a vehicle ahead
may be delayed:
.
Poor visibility (conditions such as rain,
snow, fog, dust storms, sandstorms,
and road spray from other vehicles)
. The camera area of the windshield is
fogged up or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
. Strong light (for example, sunlight or
high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera
. A sudden change in brightness occurs
(for example, when the vehicle enters
or exits a tunnel or shaded area or lightning flashes)
Starting and driving5-81
.Any door is open.
. The driver’s seat belt is not fastened.
