Nissan Maxima Owners Manual: Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) (if so equipped)
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of the PFCW system could result in serious injury or death.
- The PFCW system can help warn the driver before a collision occurs but will not avoid a collision. It is the driver's responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.
The PFCW system can help alert the driver when there is a sudden braking of a second vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle ahead in the same lane.
The PFCW system uses a radar sensor A located behind the lower grille of the front bumper to measure the distance to the vehicle ahead in the same lane.
