other antenna or transmitter.

Cet equipement est conforme aux limites

d’exposition aux rayonnements IC eta-

blies pour un environnement non con-

trole. Cet equipement doit etre installe et

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use of the I-

FCW system could result in serious

injury or death.

.

The I-FCW system helps warn the

driver before a collision but will

not avoid a collision. It is the

driver’s responsibility to stay

alert, drive safely and be in con-

trol of the vehicle at all times.

1. This device may not cause harmful

interference, and

2. This device must accept any interfer-

ence received, including interference

that may cause undesired operation.

Le present appareil est conforme aux CNR

d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appa-

reils radio exempts de licence. L’exploita-

tion est autorisee aux deux conditions

suivantes:

The I-FCW system can help alert the driver

when there is a sudden braking of a

second vehicle traveling in front of the

vehicle ahead in the same lane.

FCC Notice

Changes or modifications not expressly

approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user’s author-

ity to operate the equipment.

I-FCW SYSTEM OPERATION

The I-FCW system operates at speeds

above approximately 3 MPH (5 km/h).

If there is a potential risk of a forward

collision, the I-FCW system will warn the

driver by blinking the vehicle ahead

detection indicator, and sounding an

audible alert.

The I-FCW system is integrated into

the AEB system. There is not

a

separate selection in the display for

the I-FCW system. When the AEB

system is turned off, the I-FCW

system is also turned off.

I-FCW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

— Pedestrians, animals or obsta-

cles in the roadway

— Oncoming vehicles

— Crossing vehicles

The system is designed to auto-

matically check the sensor’s func-

t i o n a l i t y , w i t h i n c e r t a i n

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.

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.

.

(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:

.

The I-FCW system cannot detect

all vehicles under all conditions.

.

The radar sensor does not detect

the following objects:

— Snow or heavy rain

Excessive noise will interfere with

the warning chime sound, and

the chime may not be heard.

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 vehicle traveling ahead.

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

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.

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.

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.
