- The sonar system is a convenience but it is not a substitute for proper parking. Always look around and check that it is safe to do so before parking. Always move slowly.

- If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false alarms.

Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound and the chime may not be heard.

When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the sonar system is operational.

The sonar system sounds a tone to warn the driver of obstacles near the bumper. The system detects rear obstacles when the selector lever is in the R (Reverse) position. The system may not detect objects at speeds above 6 MPH (10 km/h) and may not detect certain angular or moving objects.

The sonar system detects obstacles up to 3.3 ft (1 m) from the rear bumper with a decreased coverage area at the outer corners of the rear bumper. Refer to the illustration for approximate zone coverage areas. As you move closer to the obstacle, the rate of the tone increases. When the obstacle is less than 11.8 in (30 cm) away, the tone will sound continuously.

Keep the sonar sensors (located on the bumper fascia) free from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt (do not clean the sensors with sharp objects). If the sensors are covered, it will affect the accuracy of the sonar system.

If the sonar system malfunctions, the beep sounds for 3 seconds when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
