BSI SYSTEM OPERATION
If the radar sensors detect vehicles in the detec-
tion zone, the Blind spot warning indicator light
located near the outside mirrors illuminates. If
your vehicle is approaching a lane marker, the
system chimes a sound (three times) and the
Blind spot warning indicator light flashes. Then
the system applies the brakes on one side of the
vehicle for a moment to help return the vehicle
back to the center of the lane. BSI operates
regardless of turn signal usage.NOTE:
Warning and brake control will only be
activated if the Blind spot warning indica-
tor light is already illuminated when your
vehicle approaches a lane marker. If an-
other vehicle comes into the detection
zone after your vehicle has crossed a lane
marker, no warning or brake control will be
activated. For additional information see
“BSW/BSI driving situations” in this sec-
tion. The BSI system is typically activated
earlier than the Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) system when your vehicle is ap-
proaching a lane marker.
The BSI system turns on when the dynamic driver
assistance switch on the steering wheel is
pushed when the “Blind Spot Intervention” is
enabled in the settings menu on the meter dis-
play. The BSI ON indicator light (green) on the
instrument panel illuminates when the BSI sys-
tem is turned on.
The BSI system provides a chime and turns on or
flashes the Blind spot warning indicator light
even if the BSW system is off.
How to enable/disable the BSI system
Perform the following steps to enable or disable
the BSI system.

5-36Starting and driving

The brake engagement by the BCI system
is not as effective on a slope, as it is on flat
ground. When on a steep slope, the sys-
tem may not function properly.
Do not use the BCI systems under the
following conditions because the system
may not function properly.– When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire conditions (e.g.
tire wear, low tire pressure, installa-
tion of spare tire, tire chains, non-
standard wheels) .
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
Do not use the BCI systems when towing a
trailer.
Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
When the shift selector is placed in R (Reverse)
position, the BCI ON appears in the meter dis-
play. If the radar detects an approaching vehicle from
the side, the system chimes a sound (single
beep) , the Blind spot warning indicator light on
the side the approaching vehicle flashes and a
yellow rectangular frame appears in the display.
NOTE:
● In the case of several vehicles approaching
in a row or in the opposite direction, a chime
may not be issued to the BCI system after
the first vehicle passes the sensors.
● When the sonar system sounds a tone, the
BCI system does not chime this sound
(single beep) .

A red frame will appear in the center display, the
system will chime 3 times and the brakes will be
applied for a moment, if an approaching vehicle is
detected when your vehicle is backing up. After
the automatic brake application, the driver must
depress the brake pedal to maintain brake pres-
sure.
If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator pedal, the
system moves the accelerator pedal upward be-
fore the braking is applied. If you continue to
press the accelerator, the system will not engage
the brakes.NOTE:
The system does not operate if the object is
very close to the bumper.
The BCI system automatically turns on every time
the engine is started.
The BCI system is turned off temporarily by push-
ing the BCI switch. The BCI OFF display appears
on the meter display. When the shift selector is
placed to the R (Reverse) position again the BCI
system is turned on.
The BCI system can be turned off permanently by
setting in the meter display.

5-40Starting and driving

The Blind spot warning indicator light illuminates
if a vehicle enters the detection zone from behind
in an adjacent lane.
However, if the overtaking vehicle is traveling
much faster than your vehicle, the indicator light
may not illuminate before the detected vehicle is
beside your vehicle. Always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direction your
vehicle will move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes.If the driver activates the turn signal, then the
system chimes a sound (twice) and the Blind
spot warning indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the
Blind spot warning indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when the other
vehicle is detected.
If the BSI system is on and your vehicle is ap-
proaching a lane marker, the system chimes a
sound (three times) , and the Blind spot warning
indicator light flashes. Then the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on one side to help
return the vehicle back to the center of the driving
lane.

If the BSI system is on and your vehicle ap-
proaches a lane marker while another vehicle is in
the detection zone, the system chimes a sound
(three times) and the Blind spot warning indicator
light flashes. Then, the BSI system slightly ap-
plies the brakes on one side to help return the
vehicle back to the center of the driving lane.NOTE:
When overtaking several vehicles in a row,
the vehicles after the first vehicle may not
be detected if they are traveling close to-
gether.

Entering from the side
The Blind spot warning indicator light illuminates
if a vehicle enters the detection zone from either
side.
NOTE:
The radar sensors may not detect a vehicle
which is traveling at about the same speed
as your vehicle when it enters the detection
zone.If the driver activates the turn signal, then the
Blind spot warning indicator light flashes and a
chime will sound twice.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the
Blind spot warning indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when another ve-
hicle is detected.
If the BSI system is on and your vehicle ap-
proaches the lane marker while another vehicle is
in the detection zone, the Blind spot warning
indicator light flashes and a chime will sound
three times. Then, the BSI system slightly applies
the brakes on one side to help return the vehicle
back to the center of the driving lane.

NOTE:● The BSI system will not operate if your ve-
hicle is on a lane marker when another ve-
hicle enters the detection zone. In this case
only the BSW system operates.
● BSI braking will not operate or will stop
operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions.
– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the accelerator pedal is depressed while brake control assist is provided.
– When steering quickly. – When the ICC, DCA, FCW or IBA warn-
ings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
RADAR MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensors for the BSW, BSI and BCI
systems are located near the rear bumper. Al-
ways keep the area near the radar sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary
ambient conditions such as splashing water, mist
or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the
radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing the
area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including transparent ma-
terial) , install accessories or apply additional
paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around the
radar sensors. Consult an INFINITI retailer if the
area around the radar sensors is damaged due to

CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed be-
tween 25 - 89 MPH (40 - 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control,push the
ON·OFF switch on. The CRUISE indicator light in
the vehicle information display will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to
the desired speed, push the COAST/SET switch
and release it. The SET indicator light in the
vehicle information display will illuminate. Take
your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your vehicle
maintains the set speed.
● To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previously
set speed.
● The vehicle may not maintain the set speed
when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods.
● Push the CANCEL button; the SET indicator
light in the vehicle information display goes
out.
● Tap the brake pedal; the SET indicator light
goes out. ●
Push the ON·OFF switch off. Both the
CRUISE indicator light and SET indicator
light in the vehicle information display go out.
The cruise control is automatically canceled and
the SET light in the vehicle information display
goes out if: ● you depress the brake pedal while pushing
the ACCEL/RES or SET/COAST switch.
The preset speed is deleted from memory.
● the vehicle slows down more than 8 MPH
(13 km/h) below the set speed.
● you move the shift selector to N (Neutral) .
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one
of the following three methods.
● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the COAST/SET switch.
● Push and hold the ACCEL/RES switch.
When the vehicle attains the speed you de-
sire, release the switch.
● Push and release the ACCEL/RES switch.
Each time you do this, the set speed in-
creases by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h). To reset at a slower cruising speed,
use one
of the following three methods.
● Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the ve-
hicle attains the desired speed, push the
COAST/SET switch and release it.
● Push and hold the COAST/SET switch. Re-
lease the switch when the vehicle slows to
the desired speed.
● Push and release the COAST/SET switch.
Each time you do this, the set speed de-
creases by about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the ACCEL/RES switch. The vehicle re-
turns to the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 25 MPH (40 km/h).
