The LDW system will operate when the ve- hicle is driven at speeds of approximately 37 mph (60 km/h) and above, and only when the lane markings are clearly visible on the road. The LDW system monitors the lane mark- ers on the traveling lane using the camera unit ᭺A located above the inside mirror. The LDW system warns the driver with an indicator and chime that the vehicle is be- ginning to leave the driving lane. For addi- tional information, refer to “LDW system op- eration” in this section. LSD2795 WARNING Failure to follow the warnings and in- structions for proper use of the LDW system could result in serious injury or death. ∙ This system is only a warning device to inform the driver of a potential un- intended lane departure. It will not steer the vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep the ve- hicle in the traveling lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

Starting and driving 5-35 LDW SYSTEM OPERATION The LDW system provides a lane departure warning function when the vehicle is driven at speeds of approximately 37 mph (60 km/h) and above and the lane mark- ings are clear. When the vehicle ap- proaches either the left or the right side of the traveling lane, a warning chime will sound and the LDW indicator on the instru- ment panel will blink to alert the driver. The warning function will stop when the vehicle returns inside of the lane markers.

5-124 Starting and driving 1. AEB emergency warning indicator 2. AEB system warning light AEB SYSTEM OPERATION The AEB system will function when your vehicle is driven at speeds above approxi- mately 3 mph (5 km/h). If a risk of a forward collision is detected, the AEB system will firstly provide the warn- ing to the driver by flashing the warning (yellow) in the vehicle information display and providing an audible alert. If the driver applies the brakes quickly and forcefully after the warning, and the AEB system detects that there is still the possi- bility of a forward collision, the system will automatically increase the braking force. If the driver does not take action, the AEB system issues the second visual (flashing) (red) and audible warning. If the driver re- leases the accelerator pedal, then the sys- tem applies partial braking. If the risk of a collision becomes imminent, the AEB system applies harder braking au- tomatically.

NOTE: The vehicle’s brake lights come on when braking is performed by the AEB system. Depending on vehicle speed and distance to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving and roadway conditions, the system may help the driver avoid a forward collision or may help mitigate the consequences of a colli- sion, should one be unavoidable. If the driver is handling the steering wheel, accel- erating or braking, the AEB system will function later or will not function. The automatic braking will cease under the following conditions: ∙ When the steering wheel is turned as far as necessary to avoid a collision. ∙ When the accelerator pedal is de- pressed. ∙ When there is no longer a vehicle de- tected ahead.

5-126 Starting and driving TURNING THE AEB SYSTEM ON/OFF Perform the following steps to turn the AEB systems ON or OFF. 1.

Select “Driving Aids” and press the OK button. 3. Select “Emergency Brake” and press the OK button. 4. Select “Front” and use the OK button to turn the system on or off. When the AEB system is turned off, the AEB system warning light illuminates.

5-132 Starting and driving 1. AEB with Pedestrian Detection emer- gency warning indicator 2. AEB with Pedestrian Detection system warning light AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION SYSTEM OPERATION The AEB system operates at speeds above approximately 3 mph (5 km/h). For the pe- destrian detection function, the system operates at speeds between6–37mph(10 – 60 km/h). If a risk of a forward collision is detected, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system will firstly provide the warning to the driver by flashing the warning (yellow) in the ve- hicle information display and providing an audible alert. If the driver applies the brakes quickly and forcefully after the warning, and the AEB with Pedestrian Detection sys- tem detects that there is still the possibility of a forward collision, the system will auto- matically increase the braking force. If the driver does not take action, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system issues the second visual (flashing) (red) and au- dible warning. If the driver releases the ac- celerator pedal, then the system applies LSD3079 partial braking.

NOTE: The vehicle’s brake lights come on when any braking is performed by the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system. Depending on vehicle speed and distance to the vehicle or pedestrian ahead, as well as driving and roadway conditions, the sys- tem may help the driver avoid a forward collision or may help mitigate the conse- quences if a collision should be unavoid- able. If the driver is handling the steering wheel, accelerating or braking, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system will function later or will not functio ebn. The automatic braking will cease under the following conditions: ∙ When the steering wheel is turned to avoid a collision. 5-134 Starting and driving TURNING THE AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETECTION SYSTEM ON/OFF Perform the following steps to enable or disable the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system. 1.

NOTE: Maintenance items with “૽” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance under severe driving conditions”. (1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier or driving on rough or muddy roads, inspect CVT fluid deterioration every 60,000 miles (96,000 km), then change CVT fluid if necessary. And if the inspection is not performed, change (not just inspect) CVT fluid every 60,000 miles (96,000 km). It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service. (2) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil at every 20,000 miles (32,000 km) or 24 months.

Technical and consumer information 10-9 WHEN TRAVELING OR REGISTERING VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION IN ANOTHER COUNTRY

When planning to drive your NISSAN ve- hicle in another country, you should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for your vehicle's engine. Using fuel with an octane rating that is too low may cause engine damage. All gaso- line vehicles must be operated with un- leaded gasoline. Therefore, avoid taking your vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not available. When transferring the registration of your vehicle to another country, state, province or district, it may be necessary to modify the vehicle to meet local laws TI1050M LTI2270 and regulations. VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER The laws and regulations for motor vehicle (VIN) PLATE (chassis number) emission control and safety standards vary according to the country, state, prov- The VIN plate is attached as shown.

When any vehicle is to be taken into an- other country, state, province or district and registered, its modifications, trans- portation and registration are the re- sponsibility of the user. NISSAN is not re- sponsible for any inconvenience that may result.
