To defog/defrost the rear window glass
and outside mirrors, start the engine and
push the switch
*1on. The indicator light
*2will come on. Push the switch again to
turn the defroster off.
It will automatically turn off in approxi-
mately 15 minutes.

the rear window defroster.
XENON HEADLIGHTS (if so
equipped)
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
. When xenon headlights are on, they
produce a high voltage. To prevent an
electric shock, never attempt to modify
or disassemble. Always have your xenon
headlights replaced at an INFINITI retai-
ler.
. Xenon headlights provide considerably
more light than conventional headlights.
If they are not correctly aimed, they
might temporarily blind an oncoming
driver or the driver ahead of you and
cause a serious accident. If headlights
are not aimed correctly, immediately
take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer
and have the headlights adjusted cor-
rectly.
When the xenon headlight is initially
turned on, its brightness or color varies
slightly. However, the color and brightness
will soon stabilize. .
The life of xenon headlights will be
shortened by frequent on-off operation.
It is generally desirable not to turn off
the headlights for short intervals (for
example, when the vehicle stops at a
traffic signal). Even when the daytime
running lights are active (Canada only),
the xenon headlights do not turn on.
This way the life of the xenon head-
lights is not reduced.
. If the xenon headlight bulb is close to
burning out, the brightness will dras-
tically decrease, the light will start
blinking, or the color of the light will
become reddish. If one or more of the
above signs appear, contact an INFINITI
retailer.

2-42Instruments and controls
Spot Warning (BSW) indicator lights, lo-
cated next to the outside mirrors, when the
radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone. If the turn signal is
activated in the direction of the detected
vehicle, a chime sounds twice and the BSW
indicator light will flash. (See“Blind Spot
Warning (BSW) system” in the“5. Starting
and driving” section.)
The FCW system will sound a warning
chime and the vehicle ahead detection
indicator light blinks to alert the driver if
the vehicle is traveling close to the vehicle
ahead. (See “Forward Collision Warning
(FCW) system” in the“5. Starting and
driving” section.)
The warning systems switch is automati-
cally turned on when the engine is started,
and the warning systems ON indicator
*1
on the switch illuminates.
To cancel the warning systems, push the
warning systems switch to turn off the
system. The warning systems ON indicator
will turn off.
NOTE:
If you continue to push the warning
systems switch from off to on for over 4
seconds, a chime will sound. This will change the default status of the LDW, BSW
and FCW systems to OFF so that these
systems will not automatically turn on
when the engine is started. If this proce-
dure is repeated, the default status will
return to ON.
