When the active trace control is operated and the
“Chassis Control” mode is selected in the trip com-
puter, the active trace control graphics are shown in
the vehicle information display see “Trip computer”
in the “2. Instruments and controls” section for more
information.
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 or
qualified workshop as soon as possible (see also
“28. [Chassis control system fault] warning” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section).
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 con-
trol is operating properly.
Even if the active trace control is set to OFF, some
functions will remain on to assist the driver (for ex-
ample, avoidance scenes).
ACTIVE ENGINE BRAKE (for
XTRONIC (CVT) models only)
WARNING
The active engine brake may not be effective de-
pending on the driving condition. Always drive
carefully and attentively.
The Active Engine Brake function adds subtle de-
celeration by controlling gear ratio, depending on
the cornering condition calculated from driver’s
steering input and plural sensors. This benefits
easier traceability and less workload of adjusting
speed with braking at corners.
The Active Engine Brake also adds subtle decelera-
tion with gear ratio control according to driver’s
brake pedal operation.
The Active Engine Brake can be set to ON (en-
abled) or OFF (disabled) through the vehicle infor-
mation display see “28. [Chassis control system
fault] warning” in the “2. Instruments and controls”
section.
When the active engine brake is operated at cor-
ners and the “Chassis Control” mode is selected in
the trip computer, the active engine brake graphics
are shown in the vehicle information display see
“Trip computer” in the “2. Instruments and controls”
section for more information.
If the chassis control warning message appears in
the vehicle information display, it may indicate that
the active engine brake is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
When the active engine brake is operating, the
needle of the tachometer will rise up and you may
hear an engine noise. This is normal and indicates
that the active engine brake is operating properly.
