—When steering quickly
— When the ICC, DCA, FCW or IBA
warnings sound.
— When the hazard warning flashers
are operated.
— When driving on a curve at a high
speed.
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
beep will sound and the BSW/BSI system
warning light (orange) will illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, turn the
engine off and restart the engine.
If the warning light (orange) continues to
illuminate, have the BSW/BSI systems
checked by an INFINITI retailer.

PRECAUTIONS ON VEHICLE-TO-VE-
HICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
Y51D-V-E01-C783084C-2815-4955-98EF-A68E28DCDCF8The system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and
direction.
If the distance sensor
*Adetects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will
reduce the vehicle speed so that your
vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the
selected distance.
The system automatically controls the
throttle and applies the brakes (up to
25% of vehicle braking power) if neces- sary.
The detection range of the sensor is
approximately 390 ft (120 m) ahead.
WARNING
.
This system is only an aid to assist the
driver and is not a collision warning or
avoidance device. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
. The system is primarily intended for use
on straight, dry, open roads with light
traffic. It is not advisable to use the
system in city traffic or congested areas.
. This system will not adapt automatically
to road conditions. This system should
be used in evenly flowing traffic. Do not
use the system on roads with sharp
curves, or on icy roads, in heavy rain or
in fog.
The distance sensor will not detect under
most conditions:
.Stationary and slow moving vehicles
. Pedestrians or objects in the roadway .
Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
. Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel
lane
WARNING
. As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the Intelligent Cruise Control
system. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-minded
driving, or overcome poor visibility in
rain, fog, or other bad weather. Decele-
rate the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal, depending on the distance
to the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the
vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the limitations of the system. The
system will cancel once it judges that
the vehicle has come to a standstill and
sound a warning chime. To prevent the
vehicle from moving, the driver must
depress the brake pedal.
. The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather

When the COAST/SET switch is pushed
under the following conditions, the system
cannot be set.
A warning chime will sound and the ICC
indicators will blink.
.When the drive mode select switch is
turned to the SNOW mode (To use the
ICC system, turn the drive mode select
switch to a mode other than the SNOW
mode, push the MAIN switch to turn off
the ICC and reset the ICC switch by
pressing the MAIN switch again.)
For details about the INFINITI drive
mode selector, see “INFINITI drive mode
selector” (P.5-20). .
When the VDC system is off (To use the
ICC system, turn on the VDC system.
Push the MAIN switch to turn off the ICC
system and reset the ICC switch by
pushing the MAIN switch again.)
For details about the VDC system, see
“Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) sys-
tem” (P.5-102).
. When ABS or VDC (including the trac-
tion control system) is operating
. When driving into a strong light (for
example, sunlight)
. When a wheel is slipping (To use the ICC
system, make sure the wheels are no
longer slipping. Push the MAIN switch
to turn off the ICC, and reset the ICC
system by pushing the MAIN switch
again.)

NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound
and the system display may blink when
the ICC sensor detects some reflectors
*A
which are fitted on vehicles in other lanes
or on the side of the road. This may cause
the ICC system to decelerate or accelerate
the vehicle. The ICC sensor may detect
these reflectors when the vehicle is driven
on winding roads, hilly roads or when
entering or exiting a curve. The ICC sensor
may also detect reflectors on narrow roads
or in road construction zones. In these
cases you will have to manually control
the proper distance ahead of your vehicle.Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected
by vehicle operation (steering maneuver or
driving position in the lane) or traffic or
vehicle condition (for example, if a vehicle
is being driven with some damage).
Automatic cancellationY51D-V-E01-D7CD8156-4FA2-46D2-A8EA-E7D5CA7F9CD6A chime sounds under the following con-
ditions and the control is automatically
canceled.
.
When the vehicle ahead is not detected
and your vehicle is traveling below the
speed of 15 MPH (24 km/h)
. When the system judges the vehicle is
at standstill
. When the shift lever is not in the D or
Manual mode
. When the windshield wipers are operat-
ing at high speed (HI). If the vehicle is
equipped with a rain sensing auto-
wiper, the system may cancel when the
wipers are set to the AUTO position.
. When the parking brake is applied
. When the drive mode select switch is
turned to the SNOW mode
. When the VDC system is turned off
. When ABS or VDC (including the trac-
tion control system) operates .

. When distance measurement becomes
impaired due to adhesion of dirt or
obstruction to the sensor
. When a wheel slips

WARNING
. As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the Distance Control Assist
system. This system does not correct
careless, inattentive or absent-minded
driving, or overcome poor visibility in
rain, fog, or other bad weather. Decele-
rate the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal, depending on the distance
to the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to maintain a
safe distance between vehicles.
. The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather
conditions. To avoid accidents, never use
the Distance Control Assist system
under the following conditions:
—On roads with sharp curves
—On slippery road surfaces such as
on ice or snow, etc.
—During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,etc.)
—When strong light (for example, atsunrise or sunset) is directly shining
on the front of the vehicle
—When rain, snow or dirt adhere tothe system sensor
—On steep downhill roads (frequentbraking may result in overheating
the brakes)
—On repeated uphill and downhill
roads
. In some road or traffic conditions, a
vehicle or object can unexpectedly come
into the sensor detection zone and cause
automatic braking. You may need to
control the distance from other vehicles
using the accelerator pedal. Always stay
alert and avoid using the DCA system
when it is not recommended in this
section.
