TRAFFIC SIGN RECOGNITION (TSR) (if so equipped)
The TSR system provides the driver with information about the most recently de- tected speed limit. The system captures the road sign information with the multi- sensing front camera unit OA located on the windshield in front of the inside rear- view mirror and displays the detected signs in the vehicle information display. For vehicles equipped with a navigation sys- tem, the speed limit displayed is based on a combination of navigation system data and live camera recognition. TSR informa- tion is always displayed at the top of the vehicle information display, and optionally in the main central area of the display screen.
WARNING The TSR system is only intended to be a support device to help provide the driver with information. It is not a re- placement for the driver’s attention to traffic conditions or responsibility to drive safely. It cannot prevent acci- dents due to carelessness. It is the driv- er’s responsibility to stay alert and drive safely at all times.
SYSTEM OPERATION The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system displays the following types of road signs: OA Speed sign detected (in Canada) OB Speed sign detected (in USA) OC Speed sign detected (no speed limit detected) OD “Do not pass” sign detected
CAUTION
•The TSR system is intended as an aid to careful driving. It is the driver’s re- sponsibility to stay alert, drive safely, and observe all road regulations that currently apply, including looking out for road signs.
•The TSR system may not function prop- erly under the following conditions:
When the road sign is not clearly visible, for example, due to dam- age or weather conditions.
When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of the multi-sensing camera unit.
When the headlights are not bright, for example, due to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not ad- justed properly.
When strong light enters the cam- era unit. (For example, the light di- rectly shines on the front of the vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
When a sudden change in bright- ness occurs. (For example, when the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
If there are deviations in relation to the navigation, for example due to changes in the road routing.
When overtaking buses or trucks with speed stickers.
TURNING THE TRAFFIC SIGN RECOGNITION (TSR) SYSTEM ON AND OFF Perform the following steps to enable or disable the TSR system. 1. Press the button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display. Use the button to select “Driver As- sistance.” Then press the ENTER button.
2. Select “Traffic Sign” and press the ENTER button to turn the system on or off.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under high temperature conditions (over approximately 104°F [40°C]) and then started, the TSR system may be deacti- vated automatically. The “Not Available High Camera Temp” warning message will appear in the vehicle information display.
Action to take: When the interior temperature is reduced, the TSR system will resume operating automatically. SYSTEM MALFUNCTION If the TSR system malfunctions, it will be turned off automatically and the system “Malfunction” warning message will appear in the vehicle information display.
Action to take: If the TSR “Malfunction” message appears, pull off the road at a safe location and stop the vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart the engine. If the TSR “Malfunction” mes- sage continues to appear, have the system checked. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE The TSR system uses the same multi- sensing front camera unit that is used by the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system, located in front of the interior rearview mir- ror. For additional information, see ”System maintenance” (P. 5-31).
