is clear.
. Check fluid levels such as engine oil,
coolant, brake fluid and window
washer fluid as frequently as possible,
or at least whenever you refuel.
. Check that all windows and lights are
clean.
. Visually inspect tires for their appear-
ance and condition. Also check tires for
proper inflation.
. Lock all doors.
. Position seat and adjust head re-
straints.
. Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
. Fasten seat belts and ask all passen-
gers to do likewise.
. Check the operation of warning lights
when the ignition switch is pushed to
the ON position. (See “Warning/indica-
tor lights and audible reminders” (P.2-
10).)Y51D-V-E01-15E689F6-66C8-4808-987F-20991B32D7B41. Apply the parking brake.
2. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) or N

restarting, depress the accelerator
pedal a little (approximately 1/3 to
the floor) and while holding, crank
the engine. Release the accelerator
pedal when the engine starts.
.If the engine is very hard to startbecause it is flooded, depress the
accelerator pedal all the way to the
floor and hold it. Push the ignition
switch to the ON position to start
cranking the engine. After 5 or 6
seconds, stop cranking by pushing
the ignition switch to OFF. After cranking the engine, release the
accelerator pedal. Crank the engine
with your foot off the accelerator
pedal
by depressing the brake pedal
and pushing the push-button igni-
tion switch to start the engine. If the
engine starts, but fails to run, repeat
the above procedure.
CAUTION
Do not operate the starter for more than 15
seconds at a time. If the engine does not
start, push the ignition switch to OFF and
wait 10 seconds before cranking again,
otherwise the starter could be damaged.
4. Warm-up
Allow the engine to idle for at least 30
seconds after starting. Do not race the
engine while warming it up. Drive at
moderate speed for a short distance
first, especially in cold weather. In cold
weather, keep the engine running for a
minimum of 2 - 3 minutes before
shutting it off. Starting and stopping
the engine over a short period of time
may make the vehicle more difficult to
start.

LDW light (orange)
LDW system operationY51D-V-E01-2391B14F-5202-4D89-899F-8F7E17F895CDThe LDW system provides a lane departure
warning function when the vehicle is driven
at speeds of approximately 45 MPH (70
km/h) and the lane markings are clear.
When the vehicle approaches either the left
or the right side of the traveling lane, a
warning chime will sound and the LDW
light (orange) on the instrument panel will
blink to alert the driver.
The warning function will stop when the
vehicle returns inside of the lane markers.
The LDW system is not designed to warn
under the following conditions. .
When you operate the lane change
signal and change traveling lanes in
the direction of the signal. (The LDW
system will become operable again
approximately 2 seconds after the lane
change signal is turned off.)
. When the vehicle speed lowers to less
than approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h).
. When the Blind Spot Intervention
TM
(BSI) system activates an audible warn-
ing or brake control.
After the above conditions have finished
and the necessary operating conditions are
satisfied, the LDW functions will resume.

.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.)

5-34Starting and driving
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h). If the system
detects a vehicle in the detection zone and
your vehicle is approaching the lane
marker, the BSI system provides an audi-
ble warning (three times), flashes the
BSW/BSI indicator light and slightly ap-
plies the brakes for a short period of time
on one side to help return the vehicle back
to the traveling lane. The BSI system
provides an audible warning and turns on
or flashes the BSW/BSI indicator light even
if the BSW system is off.
WARNING
.The BSW and BSI systems are not a
replacement for proper driving procedure
and are not designed to prevent contact
with vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direc-
tion you will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW or BSI system.
. Using the BSI system under some road,
lane marker or weather conditions could
lead to improper system operation. Al-
ways rely on your own steering and braking operation to avoid accidents.
. The BSW and BSI systems may not
provide a warning or brake control for
vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.

detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If the turn signal is then activated,
the BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and a
chime sounds twice. The indicator light
continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
The BSW/BSI indicator lights illuminate for
a few seconds when the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position.

WARNING
Normally when controlling the distance to a
vehicle ahead, this system automatically
accelerates or decelerates your vehicle
according to the speed of the vehicle ahead.
Depress the accelerator to properly accel-
erate your vehicle when acceleration is
required for a lane change. Depress the brake pedal when deceleration is required to
maintain a safe distance to the vehicle
ahead due to its sudden braking or if a
vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert when
using the ICC system.
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed
based on the road conditions. The ICC
system maintains the set vehicle speed,
similar to standard cruise control, as long
as no vehicle is detected in the lane ahead.
The ICC system displays the set speed.Vehicle detected ahead:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0When a vehicle is detected in the lane
ahead, the ICC system decelerates the
vehicle by controlling the throttle and
applying the brakes to match the speed
of a slower vehicle ahead. The system then
controls the vehicle speed based on the
speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain the
driver selected distance.
The stoplights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system.
When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator comes
on. The ICC system will also display the set
speed and selected distance.
Vehicle ahead not detected:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0When a vehicle is no longer detected
ahead, the ICC system gradually acceler-
ates your vehicle to resume the previously
set vehicle speed. The ICC system then
maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off.
If a vehicle ahead appears during accel-
eration to the set vehicle speed or any time

WARNING
The Distance Control Assist system auto-
matically decelerates your vehicle to help
assist the driver to maintain a following
distance from the vehicle ahead. Manually
brake when deceleration is required to
maintain a safe distance upon sudden
braking by the vehicle ahead or when a vehicle suddenly appears in front of you.
Always stay alert when using the DCA
system.
The Distance Control Assist (DCA) system
helps assist the driver to keep a following
distance to the vehicle ahead by braking
and moving the accelerator pedal upward
in the normal driving condition.
When a vehicle is detected ahead:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0The vehicle ahead detection indicator
comes on.When vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0.
If the driver’s foot is not on the
accelerator pedal, the system activates
the brakes to decelerate smoothly as
necessary. If the vehicle ahead comes
to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a
standstill within the limitations of the
system.
. If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accelera-
tor pedal upward to assist the driver to
release the accelerator pedal.
When brake operation by driver is re-
quired:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0The system alerts the driver by a warning
chime and blinking the vehicle ahead
detection indicator. If the driver’s foot is
on the accelerator pedal after the warning,
the system moves the accelerator pedal
upward to assist the driver to switch to the
brake pedal.
The stoplights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the DCA
system.
When the brake operates, a noise may be
heard. This is not a malfunction.

CAUTION
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),
follow these recommendations to obtain
maximum engine performance and ensure
the future reliability and economy of your
new vehicle.
Failure to follow these recommendations
may result in shortened engine life and
reduced engine performance.
.Avoid driving for long periods at con-
stant speed, either fast or slow. Do not
run the engine over 4,000 rpm.
. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any
gear.
. Avoid quick starts.
. Avoid hard braking as much as possi-
ble.
GUID-1DF28709-02A5-4AD3-AB92-E5902EB616D8Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient
Driving Tips to help you achieve the most
fuel economy from your vehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator and brake
pedal application.
.Avoid rapid starts and stops..Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application whenever possi-
ble.
.Maintain constant speed while com-muting and coast whenever possi-
ble.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.Look ahead to try and anticipate and minimize stops.
.Synchronizing your speed with traf-fic lights allows you to reduce your
number of stops.
.Maintaining a steady speed can
minimize red light stops and im-
prove fuel efficiency.
3. Use air conditioning (A/C) at higher vehicle speeds.
.Below 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is moreefficient to open windows to cool the
vehicle due to reduced engine load.
.Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is moreefficient to use A/C to cool the
vehicle due to increased aerody- namic drag.
.Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling
load.
4. Drive at economical speeds and dis- tances.
.Observing the speed limit and not
exceeding 60 MPH (97 km/h) (where
legally allowed) can improve fuel
efficiency due to reduced aerody-
namic drag.
.Maintaining a safe following dis-tance behind other vehicles reduces
unnecessary braking.
.Safely monitoring traffic to antici- pate changes in speed permits
reduced braking and smooth accel-
eration changes.
.Select a gear range suitable to road
conditions.
5. Use cruise control.
.Using cruise control during highway driving helps maintain a steady
speed.
.Cruise control is particularly effec-tive in providing fuel savings when
driving on flat terrains.
