This system senses driving based on the driver’s
steering and acceleration/braking patterns, and con-
trols brake pressure at individual wheels to aid tracing
at corners and help smooth vehicle response.
The Active Trace Control can be set to ON (enabled)
or OFF (disabled) through the Vehicle Information
Display “Settings ” page. See “Vehicle information
display” (P.2-20) for more information.
When the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)/Electronic
Stability Program (ESP) OFF switch is used to turn off
the VDC/ESP system, the Active Trace Control is also
turned off.

When the Active Trace Control is operated and the
“Chassis Control” mode is selected in the trip
comp uter, the Activ e Trace Control graphics are
shown in the vehicle information display. (See “Trip
computer” (P.2-34).)
If the chassis control warning message appears in the
vehicle information display, it may indicate that the
Active Trace Control is not functioning properly. Have
the system checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible. (See “Vehicle information display warnings
and indicators” (P.2-28).)
WARNING:
The Active Trace Control may not be effective
depending on the driving condition. Always drive
carefully and attentively.
When the Active Trace Control is operating, you may
feel a pulsation in the brake pedal and hear a noise.
This is normal and indicates that the Active Trace
Control is operating properly.
Even if the Active Trace Control is set to OFF, some
functions will remain on to assist the driver (for
example, avoidance scenes).
ACTIVE ENGINE BRAKE (Continuously
Variable Transmission (CVT) models)
The Active Engine Brake function adds subtle decel-
eration by controlling CVT gear ratio, depending on the
cornering condition calculated from driver’s steering
input and p lural sensors. This benef it to easier
traceability and less workload of adjusting speed with
braking at corners.
The Active Engine Brake also adds subtle deceleration
with gear ratio control according to driver’s brake
pedal operation.
The Active Engine Brake can be set to ON (enabled) or
OFF (disabled) through the Vehicle Information Display
“Settings” page. See “Vehicle information display”
(P.2-20) for more information.
