Nissan Rogue (T33) 2021-Present Owner’s Manual & User Guide: I-BSI system limitations

WARNING

The following limitations apply to the Intelligent Blind Spot Intervention system. Failure to operate your vehicle in accordance with these limitations could result in serious injury or death.

• The I-BSI system cannot detect every vehicle under all driving conditions.
• The radar sensors may not activate the I-BSI system when certain objects are present, including:
  • Pedestrians, bicycles, or animals.
  • Motorcycles, very low vehicles, or vehicles with unusually high ground clearance.
  • Vehicles remaining in the detection zone when accelerating from a stop.
  • Oncoming traffic.
  • Vehicles merging into an adjacent lane at a similar speed to your own.
  • Vehicles approaching rapidly from behind.
  • Vehicles that you overtake quickly.
  • Vehicles that pass through the detection zone too quickly for the system to react.
• The detection zone is based on a standard lane width. In wider lanes, the system may fail to detect vehicles; in narrow lanes, it may detect vehicles two lanes away.
• The radar system generally ignores stationary objects, but items such as guardrails, walls, foliage, or parked vehicles may sometimes be detected. This is normal.
• The radar’s ability to identify nearby vehicles may be reduced under these conditions:
  • Severe weather conditions.
  • Road spray from other vehicles.
  • Ice, frost, or dirt buildup on the vehicle.
• Do not place stickers, transparent films, accessories, or additional paint near the radar sensors.
• The camera used by the system may not detect lane markers in the following situations:
  • Multiple parallel lane markings, unclear or faded lines, yellow lines, non-standard markings, or lanes covered by water, dirt, or snow.
  • Sections of roadway where old or discontinued markings are still visible.
  • Roads with sharp curves.
  • Areas with strong visual contrasts such as shadows, water, snow, wheel ruts, or patchwork surfaces.
  • Lanes that merge or split.
  • When the vehicle does not align properly with lane markings.
  • Driving close behind another vehicle that blocks the camera view.
  • Windshield contamination in front of the camera area.
  • Low headlight brightness due to dirt or improper aiming.
  • Direct exposure to strong light (for example, sunrise or sunset).
  • Sudden brightness changes (such as entering or exiting tunnels).
• Do not rely on the I-BSI system in the following situations because it may not operate as intended:
  • Rain, fog, snow, or other severe weather.
  • Slippery surfaces such as snow or ice.
  • Winding, uneven, or poorly maintained roads.
  • Road repairs or temporary lanes.
  • Roads with narrow lanes.
  • Driving on tires that are worn or improperly inflated, using a spare tire, chains, or non-standard wheel sizes.
  • Vehicles equipped with non-original steering, brake, or suspension components.
  • Towing a trailer or another vehicle.
• Loud interior noise (high audio volume, open windows, etc.) may prevent the driver from hearing system chimes.
