• If the cruise control system malfunctions,
it cancels automatically. The
indica-
tor in the instrument panel then blinks to
warn the driver. For additional informa-
tion, see “Vehicle information display 4.2

information display 7 inch (18 cm) Type B”
(P. 2-30).
• If the
indicator blinks, push the
Cruise control switch off and have the
system checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
• The
indicator may blink when the
Cruise control switch is pushed on while
pushing the RES +, SET-, or CANCEL
switch. To properly set the cruise control
system, use the following procedures.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driv-
ing under the following conditions:
• When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed.
• In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies
in speed.
• On winding or hilly roads.
• On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice,
etc.).
• In very windy areas.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) with-
out keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
Cruise control switch. The
indicator in
the instrument panel comes on.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the ve-
hicle to the desired speed, push the SET—
switch and release it. Take your foot off the
accelerator pedal. Your vehicle maintains
the set speed.
• To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previ-
ously set speed.
• The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed when going up or down steep hills.
If this happens, drive without the cruise
control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
• Push the CANCEL switch.
• Tap the brake pedal.
• Push the Cruise control switch off. The
indicator in the instrument panel
goes out.
The cruise control is automatically can-
celed if:
• You depress the brake or clutch pedal (for
Manual Transmission models) while
pushing the RES+ or SET- switch. The pre-
set speed is deleted from memory.
• The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph
(13 km/h) below the set speed.
• You depress the clutch pedal (for Manual
Transmission models), or move the shift
lever to N (Neutral) (for Continuously Vari-
able Transmission models).
