Nissan Sentra B18 (2020-2025) Owner's Manual: MOD system limitations

WARNING

The following section describes the operational limitations of the Moving Object Detection (MOD) system on the Nissan Sentra. Failure to use the Nissan Sentra in accordance with these limitations may result in serious injury or death.

• Do not use the MOD system while towing a trailer. Under towing conditions, the Nissan Sentra MOD system may not function as intended.
• Excessive ambient noise, such as high audio system volume or open windows, can interfere with the audible warning chime, and the alert may not be heard.
• MOD system performance may be reduced depending on environmental conditions and surrounding objects, including:
  • Situations with low contrast between the background and moving objects.
  • The presence of blinking or flashing light sources.
  • Strong light conditions, such as direct sunlight or headlights from another vehicle.
  • Camera misalignment caused by folded mirrors or an abnormal camera position.
  • Dirt, water droplets, ice, or snow accumulation on the camera lens.
  • Scenarios where the position of a moving object does not change on the display.
• The MOD system may mistakenly detect flowing water, exhaust vapor, moving shadows, or similar visual disturbances.
• Detection accuracy may vary depending on the speed, direction, distance, or shape of moving objects around the Nissan Sentra.
• If the vehicle sustains damage near the camera mounting areas, causing misalignment or bending, the sensing zone may be altered and the MOD system may not properly detect objects.
• In extremely high or low temperatures, display clarity may be reduced. This condition does not indicate a malfunction.

NOTE:

The blue MOD icon will change to orange under the following conditions:

• When the MOD system detects a malfunction.
• When internal component temperature becomes excessively high (the icon will blink).
• When the rearview camera detects a blockage (the icon will blink).

If the MOD icon remains orange, have the Nissan Sentra MOD system inspected. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for professional service.

System maintenance

CAUTION

• Do not clean the camera using alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these substances may cause discoloration.
• Do not damage the camera. Any impact may adversely affect the monitor display and system performance.

If dirt, rain, or snow accumulates on any camera 1, the Nissan Sentra MOD system may not operate correctly. Clean the camera using a soft cloth lightly dampened with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then wipe dry with a clean cloth.
