2014 INFINITI QX60 headlights

●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, 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.)
●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
speeds of approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h) and
above 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 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.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 af-
ter 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™ system
activates an audible warning or when the
brakes are automatically applied by the sys-
tem.
After the above conditions have finished and the
necessary operating conditions are satisfied, the
LDW functions will resume.
How to enable/disable the LDW system
Perform the following steps to enable or disable
the LDW system.
1. Press the
button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display. Use
the
to select “Driver Assistance”.
Then press the ENTER button.
2. Select “Driver Aids”, and press the ENTER
button.

– When driving without normal tire
conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, non-standard
wheels) .
– When the vehicle is equipped with
nonoriginal brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When you are towing a trailer or
other vehicle.
●If the LDP system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically. The LDP system
warning light (orange) will illuminate in
the display.
●If LDP system warning light (orange)
illuminates in the display, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the
vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart
the engine. If the LDP system warning
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-standard lane markers; or lane
markers covered 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 contrast-
ing 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 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.)
While the LDP system is operating, you may hear
a sound of brake operation. This is normal and
indicates that the LDP system is operating prop-
erly.

– When the headlights are not bright
due to dirt on the lens or if aiming is
not adjusted properly.
– When strong light enters a lane cam-
era unit. (For example: light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
– When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example: when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or under
a bridge.)
●Do not use the BSI system under the
following conditions because the sys-
tem may not function properly.
– During bad weather (For example:
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 lane.
– When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.– 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 BSI systems when tow-
ing a trailer.
●Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may
not be heard.
BSW/BSI DRIVING SITUATIONS
Another vehicle approaching from
behind
Illustration 1: 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.

When driving in areas using road salt or other
corrosive materials, check lubrication frequently.
Lights*Clean the headlights on a regular basis.
Make sure that the headlights, stop lights, tail
lights, turn signal lights, and other lights are all
operating properly and installed securely. Also
check headlight aim.
Road wheel nuts (lug nuts)*When checking
the tires, make sure no wheel nuts are missing,
and check for any loose wheel nuts. Tighten if
necessary.
Tire rotation*Tires should be rotated every
5,000 miles (8,000 km).
Tires*Check the pressure with a gauge often
and always prior to long distance trips. If neces-
sary, adjust the pressure in all tires, including the
spare, to the pressure specified. Check carefully
for damage, cuts or excessive wear.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
transmitter componentsReplace the TPMS
transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap
when the tires are replaced due to wear or age.
Wheel alignment and balanceIf the vehicle
should pull to either side while driving on a
straight and level road, or if you detect uneven or
abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheelalignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at
normal highway speeds, wheel balancing may be
needed.
●For additional information regarding tires,
refer to “Important Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in
the Warranty Information Booklet.
WindshieldClean the windshield on a regular
basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Have a dam-
aged windshield repaired by a qualified repair
facility.
Windshield wiper blades*Check for cracks or
wear if they do not wipe properly.
Inside the vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
checked on a regular basis, such as when per-
forming periodic maintenance, cleaning the ve-
hicle, etc.
Additional information on the following
items with an “*” is found later in this sec-
tion.
Accelerator pedalCheck the pedal for smooth
operation and make sure the pedal does not bind
or require uneven effort. Keep the floor mat away
from the pedal.Brake pedalCheck the pedal for smooth opera-
tion. If the brake pedal suddenly goes down fur-
ther than normal, the pedal feels spongy or the
vehicle seems to take longer to stop, see an
INFINITI retailer immediately. Keep the floor mat
away from the pedal.
BrakesCheck that the brakes do not pull the
vehicle to one side when applied.
Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
P (Park) position mechanismOn a fairly
steep hill check that your vehicle is held securely
with the shift lever in the P (Park) position without
applying any brakes.
Parking brakeCheck the parking brake opera-
tion regularly. The vehicle should be securely held
on a fairly steep hill with only the parking brake
applied. If the parking brake needs adjustment,
see an INFINITI retailer.
SeatsCheck seat position controls such as seat
adjusters, seatback recliner, etc. to ensure they
operate smoothly and all latches lock securely in
every position. Check that the head restraints and
headrests move up and down smoothly and the
locks (if so equipped) hold securely in all latched
positions.
