●Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system
– warns the driver with a warning light and chime, and helps assist the driver to re-
turn the vehicle to the center direction of
the traveling lane by applying brake con-
trol to the left or right wheels individually
(for a short period of time) .
The LDW and LDP systems monitor the lane
markers on the traveling lane using the camera
unit
1located above the inside mirror. When the
camera unit detects that the vehicle is traveling
close to either the left or the right of the traveling
lane, the Lane departure warning indicator light
on the instrument panel blinks in orange and a warning chime sounds. When the LDP system is
on, it will automatically apply the brakes for a
short period of time, using the function of the
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM
Precautions on LDW system
WARNING
●
This system is only a warning device to
inform the driver of a potential unin-
tended lane departure. It 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
the vehicle at all times.
● The system will not operate at speeds
below approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h)
or if it cannot detect lane markers.
● If the LDW system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically, and the “Please
see owner’s manual” will appear in the
meter display. ●
If the “Please see owner’s manual” ap-
pears in the meter display, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the
vehicle. Place the shift selector into the
P (Park) position and the ignition switch
into the off position and restart the en-
gine. If the “Please see owner’s
manual” continues to appear in the me-
ter display, have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
The system may not function properly under the
following conditions: ● On roads where there are multiple parallel
lane markers; lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow painted lane
markers; non-standard lane markers; or lane
markers covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
● On roads where the discontinued lane mark-
ers are still detectable.
● On roads where there are sharp curves.

●On roads where there are sharply contrast-
ing objects, such as shadows, snow, water,
wheel ruts, seams or lines remaining after
road repairs. (The LDW system could detect
these items as lane markers.)
● On roads where the traveling lane merges or
separates.
● When the vehicle’s traveling direction does
not align with the lane marker.
● 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 wind-
shield 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 oc-
curs. (For example, when the vehicle enters
or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
LDW system operation
The LDW system provides a lane departure
warning function when the vehicle is driven at

ing chime will sound and the Lane departure
warning indicator light on the instrument panel
will blink to alert the driver.
The warning function will stop when the vehicle
returns inside of the lane markers. How to enable/disable the LDW system

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.
