4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make thevehicle width guide lines
Dparallel to
the parking space
Cwhile referring to
the predicted course lines.
5. When the vehicle is parked in the space completely, move the selector lever to the
P (Park) position (Automatic Transmission
models) or in an appropriate gear (Manual
Transmission models) and apply the park-
ing brake.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED AND
ACTUAL DISTANCES
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
guide line should be used as a reference only
when the vehicle is on a level, paved surface.
The distance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different from the
actual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the actual
distance. For example, the display shows 3 ft (1 m) to the place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1 m)
distance on the hill is the place
B. Note that
any object on the hill is further than it appears
on the monitor.

Backing up on a steep downhill
When backing up the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown further than the actual
distance. For example, the display shows 3 ft (1m) to the place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1 m)
distance on the hill is the place
B. Note that
any object on the hill is closer than it appears
on the monitor.
Backing up near a projecting object
The predicted course linesAdo not touch the
object in the display. However, the vehicle may
hit the object if it projects over the actual
backing up course.

HOW TO ADJUST SCREEN
To adjust the Display ON/OFF, Brightness, Tint,
Color, Contrast and Black Level of the rearview
monitor, push the SETTINGbutton with the
rearview monitor on, select the “Display” key
on the screen and select the item key and
adjust the level using the INFINITI controller.
Do not adjust the Brightness, Tint, Color, Con-
trast and Black Level of the rearview monitor
while the vehicle is moving. Make sure the
parking brake is firmly applied and the engine
is not running.
The display of the predicted course lines can be
set to ON or OFF. For details, see “CAMERA
settings” earlier in this section.
OPERATING TIPS
● When the selector lever is shifted to the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor screen auto-
matically changes to the rearview monitor
mode.
● It may take some time until the rearview
monitor is displayed after the selector lever
has been shifted to R from another position
or to another position from R. Objects may be distorted momentarily until the rearview
monitor screen is displayed completely.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects. This is not a malfunction.
● When strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
This is not a malfunction.
● Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
● The colors of objects on the rearview monitor
may differ somewhat from those of the ac-
tual object.
● Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
● If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the rearview monitor may not clearly display
objects. Clean the camera.
● Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolor-
ation. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth
dampened with diluted mild cleaning agent
and then wipe with a dry cloth.SAA1924

●Do not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
● Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with mild detergent diluted with water.
Open or close, and adjust the air flow direction
of ventilators.

WARNING
●The air conditioner cooling function oper-
ates only when the engine is running.
● Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly fatal in-
juries to people or animals.
● Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to
become stale and the windows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
When the “STATUS” button is pushed, the
automatic climate control status screen will
appear. (See “HOW TO USE STATUS BUTTON”
earlier in this section.) You can individually set the driver and front
passenger side temperature using each tem-
perature control button.
