2012 INFINITI EX warning

.When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
. When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the
windshield in front of the lane camera
unit.
. When the headlights are not bright due
to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
. When strong light enters the lane
camera unit. (For example, the light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
. When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)

WARNING
.The LDP system will not steer the vehicle
or prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of vehicle at all
times.
. The LDP system is primarily intended for
use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers
in certain roads, weather or driving
conditions.
. Using the LDP system under some
conditions of road, lane marker or
weather, or when you change lanes
without using the lane change signal
could lead to an unexpected system operation. In such conditions, you need
to correct the vehicle’s direction with
your steering operation to avoid acci-
dents.
. When the LDP system is operating, avoid
excessive or sudden steering maneu-
vers. Otherwise, you could lose control
of the vehicle.
. The LDP system will not operate at
speeds below approximately 45 MPH
(70 km/h) or if it cannot detect lane
markers.
. The LDP system may not function
properly under the following conditions,
and do not use the LDP system:
—During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
—When driving on slippery roads,
such as on ice or snow, etc.
—When driving on winding or uneven roads.
—When there is a lane closure due to
road repairs.
—When driving in a makeshift lane.
—When driving on roads where thelane width is too narrow.

The LDP system turns on when you push
the dynamic driver assistance switch on
the steering wheel after starting the
engine. The LDP ON indicator light (green)
on the instrument panel will illuminate.

The BSW system uses radar sensors*Ainstalled near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles beside your vehicle in an
adjacent lane.
SSD1030
Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the
detection zone shown as illustrated. This
detection zone starts from the outside
mirror of your vehicle and extends approxi-
mately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear
bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)
sideways.
The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 MPH (32 km/h). If the radar
sensors detect a vehicle in the detection
zone, the BSW indicator light illuminates. If
the driver then activates the turn signal, a
chime will sound twice and the BSW
indicator light will flash.
WARNING
. The BSW system is not a replacement for
proper driving procedure and is not
designed to prevent contact with vehi-
cles or objects. When changing lanes,
always use the side and rear mirrors and
turn and look in the direction you will
move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes. Never rely solely on the BSW
system.
. The BSW system may not provide a
warning for vehicles that pass through
the detection zone quickly.

5-30Starting and driving
WARNING
Excessive noise (e.g. audio system volume,
open vehicle window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be heard.
.The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when certain
objects are present such as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
— Several types of vehicles such as
motorcycles
— Oncoming vehicles
— Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop
(See “BSW driving situations” later
in this section)
— A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle
(See “BSW driving situations” later
in this section)
— A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind.
(See “BSW driving situations” later
in this section) —
A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly.
(See “BSW driving situations” later
in this section)
. Severe weather or road spray condi-
tions may reduce the ability of the
radar to detect other vehicles.
. The radar sensors detection zone is
designed based on a standard lane
width. When driving in a wider lane, the
radar sensors may not detect vehicles
in an adjacent lane. When driving in a
narrow lane, the radar sensors may
detect vehicles driving two lanes away.
. The radar sensors are designed to
ignore most stationary objects, how-
ever objects such as guardrails, walls,
foliage and parked vehicles may occa-
sionally be detected. This is a normal
operating condition.
