Warns the driver that the vehicle is about to cross a lane marker with an indicator and a steering wheel vibration.

• Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)

Warns the driver that the vehicle is about to cross a lane marker with an indicator and a steering wheel vibration.

Assists the driver to return the vehicle to the center of the traveling lane.

• Blind Spot Warning (BSW)

Warns the driver of a vehicle in an adjacent lane when changing lanes with an indicator.

• Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention (I-BSI)

Warns the driver of a vehicle in an adjacent lane when changing lanes.

Assists the driver to return the vehicle to the center of the traveling lane.

Rear Driving Aids

• Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

Assists the driver when backing out from a parking space by detecting other vehicles approaching from the right or left of the vehicle.

Rear Driving Aids

• Rear Automatic Braking (RAB)

Assists the driver when the vehicle is backing up and approaching stationary objects directly behind the vehicle by providing a warning and automatic braking if needed.

Parking Aids

• RearView Monitor
  Shows a rear view of the vehicle when the shift lever is placed in the R (Reverse) position.

  Assists the driver in parking situations by showing various views of the position of the vehicle in a split screen format.
• Moving Object Detection (MOD)
  Informs the driver of moving objects near the vehicle in parking situations.
• Sonar system
  Informs the driver with a visual and audible alert of stationary obstacles near the bumpers or the vehicle sides (flanks) (if so equipped).

ProPILOT Assist

• ProPILOT Assist

Consists of Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) and Steering Assist.

• Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)

Helps the driver maintain a selected distance from the vehicle ahead and can reduce the speed to match a slower vehicle ahead.

Decelerates the vehicle to a standstill when a vehicle ahead slows to a stop.

• Speed Limit Assist

Detects a change of the speed limit, indicates the detected speed limit and can apply it to the vehicle set speed automatically or manually.

(A feature of ProPILOT Assist with Navilink)

• Speed Adjust by Route

Adjusts the vehicle speed depending on curves, junctions and exits, using road information provided by the navigation system. (A feature of ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link)

ProPILOT Assist

• Steering Assist

Assists the driver to help keep the vehicle within the center of the traveling lane.

Traffic and other conditions and laws permit, and it is safe to do so, driver's hands can be taken off the steering wheel. Always pay attention to the road and the operation of the vehicle. (A feature of ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

• Lane Change Assist

Help the driver make a lane change when the turn signal is activated (A feature of ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

• Passing Assist

Help the driver make a lane change when a slower vehicle is detected ahead (A feature of ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

• Route Assist

Help the driver make a lane change when approaching the point where a lane change is necessary, according to the route set in the navigation system. (A feature of ProPILOT Assist 2.0)

Other Driving Aids

• High beam assist

Switches the headlights to the low beam automatically when an oncoming vehicle or leading vehicle appears in front of your vehicle.

• Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR)

Provides the driver with information about the most recently detected speed limit.

• Driver Monitor

Monitors the driver's attention to the road ahead with a driver facing camera.

• Intelligent Driver Alertness (I-DA)

Helps alert the driver when a lack of attention or driving fatigue is detected.

• Hill Start Assist

Helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards in the time it takes the driver to release the brake pedal and apply the accelerator when the vehicle is stopped on a hill.

Driver assistance troubleshooting guide

Basic information

Some of the Driver Assistance systems use the common parts (camera, radar, sonar, etc.) to function. When a pop-up warning message appears in the vehicle information display or the warning light flashes/illuminated, check the system conditions.

For system temporarily unavailable

It is important to ensure the radar sensors, cameras and sonar sensors are clean before each drive. Unclear or damaged cameras and sensors, as well as environmental conditions can affect system performance.

For system malfunction

If any of the following malfunction warnings appear (orange), stop the vehicle in a safe location. Turn the EV system off, restart the EV system. If the warning message/light continue to illuminate, it may be a malfunction. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN certified ARIYA dealer for service.
