RECEIVING A CALL
When the ring tone is heard, press the button
on the steering wheel.
Once the call has ended, press the button on
the steering wheel.
NOTE:
To reject a call when the ring tone is heard,
press the button on the steering wheel.
DURING A CALL
During a call there are several command op-
tions available. Press thebutton on the
steering wheel to mute the receiving voice and
enter commands.
● “(digits)” — Use the Send command to enter
numbers during a call. For example, if di-
rected to dial an extension by an automated
system:
Speak: “Sending one two three four.”
The system acknowledges the command and
sends the tones associated with the num-
bers. The system then ends the VR session
and returns to the call. ●
“Mute on/off” — Use the Mute command to
mute the user’s voice so the other party
cannot hear it.
Use the mute command again to unmute the
user’s voice.
● “Transfer Handset” — Use the Transfer
Handset command to transfer the call from
the Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone System to
a cellular phone when privacy is desired. The
system announces, “Transfer Handset. The
call is transferred to the handset only.” The
system then ends the VR session.
The Transfer Call command can also be
issued again to return to a hands-free call
through the vehicle.
● “Help” — The system announces the avail-
able commands.
NOTE:
If the other party ends the call or the cellular
phone network connection is lost while the Mute
feature is on, the Mute feature may need to be
reset to “off.”

Additional information
●The TPMS does not monitor the tire pressure
of the spare tire.
● The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h).
Also, this system may not detect a sudden
drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire
while driving).
● The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure
is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure
gauge to check the tire pressure.
●
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning appears
on the dot matrix liquid crystal display when
the low tire pressure warning light is illumi-
nated and low tire pressure is detected. The
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning turns off when
the low tire pressure warning light turns off.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning does not
appear if the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates to indicate a TPMS malfunction.
●Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the
heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the
outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the
tire which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the warning light
illuminates in low ambient temperature, check
the tire pressure for all four tires.
For additional information, see “Low tire pres-
sure warning light” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section and “TIRE PRESSURE MONI-
TORING SYSTEM (TPMS)” in the “6. In case of
emergency” section.
WARNING
●
If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates while driving, avoid sudden steering
maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving
with under-inflated tires may permanently
damage the tires and increase the likelihood
of tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury. Check the
tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the tire
pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure shown on the Tire and Loading In-
formation label to turn the low tire pressure
warning light OFF. If the light still illumi-
nates while driving after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you have a flat
tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as
possible. (See “FLAT TIRE” in the “6. In case
of emergency” section for changing a flat
tire.)
● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, the TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute. The light will re-
main on after 1 minute. Contact your INFINITI
retailer as soon as possible for tire replace-
ment and/or system resetting.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
● Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire
sealant into the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure sensors (for
models not equipped with the emergency
tire puncture repair kit).
● If you used the Emergency Tire Sealant to
repair a minor tire puncture, your INFINITI
retailer will also need to replace the TPMS
sensor in addition to repairing or replacing
the tire (for models equipped with the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit).

CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 to 89 MPH (40 to 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control,push the MAIN
switch on. The CRUISE indicator will come on. To set cruising speed,
accelerate your vehicle to
the desired speed, push the SET/COAST switch
and release it. (The CRUISE SET indicator will
come on in the instrument panel.) Take your
foot off the accelerator pedal. Your vehicle will
maintain the set speed.
● To pass another vehicle, depress the accel-
erator pedal. When you release the pedal,
the vehicle will return to the previously set
speed.
● The vehicle may not maintain the set speed
on winding or hilly roads. If this happens,
drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, follow any of these
methods:
a) Push the CANCEL button. The SET indica- tor will go out.
b) Tap the brake pedal. The SET indicator will go out.
c) Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position. The SET indicator will go out.
d) Turn the MAIN switch off. Both the CRUISE indicator and SET indicator will go out.
●If you depress the brake pedal while pushing
the RESUME/ACCELERATE or SET/COAST
switch and reset at the cruising speed, the
cruise control will disengage. Turn the MAIN
switch off once and then turn it on again.
● The cruise control will automatically cancel if
the vehicle slows more than 8 MPH (12
km/h) below the set speed.
● If you depress the clutch pedal (Manual
Transmission models) or move the selector
lever to N (Neutral) position (Automatic
Transmission models), the cruise control will
be canceled.
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following methods:
● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the SET/COAST switch.
● Push and hold the RESUME/ACCELERATE
switch. When the vehicle attains the speed
you desire, release the switch.
● Push, then quickly release the
RESUME/ACCELERATE switch. Each time you
do this, the set speed will increase by about
1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
SSD0600
5-20Starting and driving
To reset at a slower cruising speed,use one of
the following methods:
● Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the ve-
hicle attains the desired speed, push the
SET/COAST switch and release it.
● Push and hold the SET/COAST switch. Re-
lease the switch when the vehicle slows
down to the desired speed.
● Push, then quickly release the SET/COAST
switch. Each time you do this, the set speed
will decrease by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and release
the RESUME/ACCELERATE switch. The vehicle
will resume the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 25 MPH (40 km/h). The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system au-
tomatically maintains a selected distance from
the vehicle traveling in front of you according to
that vehicle’s speed (up to the set speed), or at
the set speed when the road ahead is clear.
The ICC function can be set to one of two cruise
control modes:
●
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
For maintaining a selected distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you
up to the preset speed.
● Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode:
For cruising at a preset speed.WARNING
● Always drive carefully and attentively when
using either cruise control mode. Read and
understand the Owner’s Manual thoroughly
before using the cruise control. To avoid se-
rious injury or death, do not rely on the sys-
tem to prevent accidents or to control the
vehicle’s speed in emergency situations. Do
not use cruise control except in appropriate
road and traffic conditions.
● In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode, a warning chime will not sound to
warn you if you are too close to the vehicle
ahead. Pay special attention to the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead
of you or a collision could occur.
