●Do not put anything on the rearview camera.
The rearview camera is installed above the
license plate.
● When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water may
enter the camera unit causing water conden-
sation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an
electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a precision
instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction
or cause damage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera. Do not
scratch the cover when cleaning dirt or snow
from the cover.
HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
bumper line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
● Red line
1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
● Yellow line
2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
● Green line
3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
● Green line
4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up. Predicted course lines
6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the selector lever is in the “R”
(Reverse) position and the steering wheel is
turned. The predicted course lines will move
depending on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the
steering wheel is in the neutral position.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
● Always turn and check that it is safe to park
your car before backing up. Always back up
slowly.
● Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road
condition and road grade.
● If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course line may not be
displayed correctly.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predicted
course line and the actual course line.

●If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predicted course lines may
not be displayed correctly. If this occurs,
drive the vehicle on a straight road for more
than 5 minutes.
● The displayed lines will appear slightly off to
the right because the rearview camera is not
installed in the rear center of the vehicle.
● The distance guide line and the vehicle
width guide line should be used as a refer-
ence only when the vehicle is on a level
paved surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance between
the vehicle and displayed objects.
● When backing up the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further than
they appear. When backing up the vehicle
down a hill, objects viewed in the monitor
are closer than they appear. Use the inside
mirror or glance over your shoulder to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course lines are
wider than the actual width and course.
1. Visually check that the parking space is safe before parking your vehicle.
2. The rearview of the vehicle is displayed on the screen
Aas illustrated when the
selector lever is moved to the “R” (Re-
verse) position. 3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting the
steering wheel so that the predicted
course linesBenter the parking space

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(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 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. However, the radio can be heard.
● It may take some time until the rearview
monitor is displayed after the selector lever
has been shifted to “R” from another posi-
tion or to another position from “R”. Objects may be distorted momentarily until the rear-
view 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.

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.
