NISSAN INTELLIGENT SAFETY SHIELD® TECHNOLOGIES

Wouldn’t it be cool if every time you went for a drive, confidence came along for the ride? Nissan Intelligent Safety Shield® Technologies comprises a comprehensive approach to safety that guides the engineering and development of every vehicle we make. It’s our way of looking out for you and yours by monitoring, responding and protecting to help keep you and your passengers safe from almost anything the road might throw your way.

Nissan's commitment to innovation and intelligent safety will shine in 2018 when eights models - roughly 1,000,000 Nissans in total - will include standard Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) *.

Previously know as Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) this intelligent feature uses radar technology to monitor a vehicle's proximity to the vehicle ahead, giving the driver audible and visual display warnings to help the driver reduce the vehicle's speed if a potential frontal collision is detected. If the driver fails to respond, the AEB system can apply the brakes, helping the driver to avoid the collision or reduce the speed of impact if it is unavoidable.

The 2018 Nissan models equipped with Standard Automatic Emergency Braking are: Sentra, Altima, LEAF, Rogue Sport, Rogue, Murano and Pathfinder.

In traffic, it only takes a moment to get caught off guard in a potentially dangerous situation. How about a little help? With this technology, a radar sensor on the front of your Nissan constantly monitors not just one vehicle ahead in your lane, but two. When the system detects sudden deceleration two vehicles ahead, it gives you an audible warning and a visual signal on the instrument panel. So you get a heads up, even if you can’t see what’s slowing you down.

Using radar technology to keep an eye on your speed and proximity to the vehicle ahead of you, Automatic Emergency Braking (previously known as Forward Emergency Braking) gives you audible and visual display warnings to help you reduce your speed, if necessary. It can also apply braking if you fail to respond to help you avoid a collision. If a collision is unavoidable, this feature will engage the brakes to help reduce speed of impact and reduce the severity of a collision.

If another vehicle is detected in the blind spot area, an indicator appears in the driver’s or front passenger’s door pillar and on the Advanced Drive-Assist^® Display. Put your turn signal on, and the indicator flashes with a warning chime to alert you.

When you’re backing out of a parking space, this available feature can detect and warn you about detected vehicles you might not see behind you approaching from either side. So backing up feels easier than ever.

Parallel parking made easy. Giving you a view of what’s directly behind you, the RearView Monitor makes backing up an easier task. Green, yellow, and red indicators also help you gauge how close you are to objects – a real help in tight spaces.

Around View^® Monitor uses four cameras to give you a virtual composite 360º bird's-eye view of your vehicle, with selectable split-screen close-ups of the front, rear, and curbside views. And since all obstacles aren't stationary, the available Moving Object Detection system can warn you about moving objects detected in your vicinity.

Unlike traditional systems that only maintain a set speed, Intelligent Cruise Control also helps keep an adjustable set distance between you and the car in front. As traffic slows down or speeds up, ICC responds accordingly.

An American Automobile Association study estimates that an average of 328,000 automobile accidents can be attributed to fatigued driving every year on American roads.[[661]] That’s why we developed the Driver Attention Alert system, or DAA. This forward-thinking technology works by monitoring your steering patterns. Should the system detect any unusual steering activity, it will alert you audibly with a chime, and visually by lighting a coffee cup icon on your display, letting you know it may be time for a break.

Moving Object Detection uses the cameras of the Around View^® Monitor which gives you visual and audible alerts if the system detects moving objects near the vehicle.

TPMS monitors tires for low inflation pressure, which can shorten tire life and reduce the load-carrying capabilities of the vehicle. Using an icon on the dash, the system lets you know when tire pressure is low. As you fill your tires, the available Easy-Fill Tire Alert flashes the car’s lights and sounds a friendly beep of the horn when they have enough air.

Standard on all Nissan models.

The Front and Rear Sonar System[[102]]beeps when it detects objects near the bumper while backing up, and increases in frequency the closer you get to help you maneuver in tight spaces.

Feature availability varies - not all features available on all Nissan models. 

This system includes dual-stage supplemental front air bags with seat belt sensors and an occupant-classification sensor. The inflation rate of these dual-stage air bags adjusts depending on crash severity and seat belt usage

These air bags are built into the front seats backs, so they move with the occupants.

Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air bags help provide head protection for both rows of outboard occupants.

Active Head Restraints help reduce the chances of whiplash injuries to front-seat occupants by moving up and forward during certain rear-end collisions.

Standard on all Nissan models.

LATCH is another way we’re working to keep children safe. The system lets you secure LATCH-compatible child restraints without having to use seat belts or a locking clip.

Nissan safety engineers have dedicated thousands of hours to evaluating hundreds of child restraints in Nissans. The result: An industry first, The Snug Kids^® Child Safety Seat Fit Guide. This guide lists child seats that fit the rear seats of Nissan vehicles, as well as offers invaluable tips on correct installation. Look for the latest Fit Guide at NissanUSA.com/SnugKids.
