5-28Starting and driving
.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.
. Do not use the LDP system under the
following conditions as it may not
function properly:
—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 ortemporary lane.
—When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
—When driving without normal tireconditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of spare tire, tire chains, non-standard
wheels).
—When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
. If the LDP system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically. The LDW light
(orange) on the instrument panel will
illuminate.
. If the LDW light (orange) illuminates,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle. Turn the engine off and
restart the engine. If the LDW light
(orange) continues to illuminate, have
the LDP system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
. Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
The functions of the LDP system (warning
and system application of the brakes) may
or may not operate 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-stan- dard lane markers; lane markers cov-
ered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
. On roads where discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
. On roads where there are sharp curves.
. On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as shadows,
snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or lines
remaining after road repairs. (The LDP
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, dirt or object 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.)

BSW/BSI temporarily not availableY51D-V-E01-BCB965FD-668A-45F0-B379-B81097129CFD. Under the following conditions, the BSI
system will be turned off automatically,
a beep will sound and the BSI ON
indicator light (green) will blink. The
BSW system is still available, but the
BSI system will not be available until
the conditions no longer exist.
— When the VDC system (except TCS
function) or ABS operates.
— When the VDC system is turned off.
— When the drive mode select switch
is turned to the SNOW mode.
Action to take:
Turn off the BSI system and turn it on again
when the above conditions no longer exist.
. Under the following conditions, the
BSW and BSI systems will be turned
off automatically, a beep will sound
and the BSW/BSI system warning light (orange) will blink. The BSW and BSI
systems are not available until the
conditions no longer exist.
—
When the camera detects that the
interior temperature is high (over
approximately 1048F (408C)).
— When radar blockage is detected.
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.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the BSW system will resume automatically.
For the BSI system, turn it off and turn it on
again. If the BSW/BSI warning light (or-
ange) continues to blink even after the BSI
system is turned on again, stop the vehicle
in a safe location and turn the engine off.
Check for and remove objects obscuring
the radar sensors on the rear bumper, and
restart the engine.
If the warning light (orange) continues to
blink, have the BSW/BSI systems checked
by an INFINITI retailer.
BSW/BSI MALFUNCTIONY51D-V-E01-C7FB4764-0BE7-4C90-B8C9-2019CD0D1E1EWhen the BSW/BSI systems malfunction,
they will be turned off automatically, a

. when it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed .
in heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in
speed
. on winding or hilly roads
. on slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
. in very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.

.The distance to the vehicle ahead will
change according to the vehicle speed.
The higher the vehicle speed, the
longer the distance.
. If the engine is stopped, the set
distance becomes “long”. (Each time
the engine is started, the initial setting becomes
“long”.)
Approach warningY51D-V-E01-75B5DA38-C209-4E02-89D4-2FDDC4ADBC31If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle
ahead due to rapid deceleration of that
vehicle or if another vehicle cuts in, the
system warns the driver with the chime
and ICC system display. Decelerate by
depressing the brake pedal to maintain a
safe vehicle distance if:
.The chime sounds.
. The vehicle ahead detection and set
distance indicator blink.
The warning chime may not sound in some
cases when there is a short distance
between vehicles. Some examples are:
. When the vehicles are traveling at the
same speed and the distance between
vehicles is not changing
. When the vehicle ahead is traveling
faster and the distance between vehi-
cles is increasing
. When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when:
. Your vehicle approaches other vehicles
that are parked or moving slowly.
. The accelerator pedal is depressed,
overriding the system.

identifies the need to apply emergency
braking by sensing the vehicle ahead in
the same lane and the distance to the
vehicle ahead and relative speed from it, it
applies the brake pre-pressure before the
driver depresses the brake pedal and helps
improve brake response by reducing pedal
