2014 INFINITI QX60 brake light

The BSI system operates above approximately
37 MPH (60 km/h). If the system detects a ve-
hicle in the detection zone and your vehicle is
approaching the lane marker, the BSI system
provides an audible warning (three times) ,
flashes the Blind Spot Warning indicator light
and slightly applies 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 Blind
Spot Warning indicator light even if the BSW
system is off.
BSW SYSTEM OPERATION
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the detec-
tion zone, the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) indica-
tor light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If the turn signal is then activated, the
system chimes (twice) and the BSW indicator
light flashes. The BSW indicator light continues
to flash until the detected vehicles leave the
detection zone.
The BSW indicator light illuminates for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position.The brightness of the BSW indicator light is
adjusted automatically depending on the bright-
ness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have already
detected vehicles when the driver activates the
turn signal. If a vehicle comes into the detection
zone after the driver activates the turn signal, then
only the BSW indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. See “BSW/BSI driving situations”
in this section.
The BSW system automatically turns on every
time the engine is started, as long as it is acti-
vated using the settings menu on the vehicle
information display.

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 system application of the
brakes will only be activated if the Blind
Spot Warning indicator light is already illu-
minated when your vehicle approaches a
lane marker. If another vehicle comes into
the detection zone after your vehicle has
crossed a lane marker, no warning or brake
application will be activated. For additional
information see “BSW/BSI driving situa-
tions” in this section. The BSI system is
typically activated earlier than the Lane De-
parture Prevention (LDP) system when your
vehicle is approaching a lane marker.

– 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.

Illustration 2: If the driver activates the turn signal
then the system chimes a sound (twice) and the
Blind Spot Warning indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before
a vehicle enters the detection zone, the
Blind Spot Warning indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when the other
vehicle is detected.Illustration 3: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle is approaching a lane marker and a ve-
hicle is in the detection zone, the system chimes
a sound (three times) , and the Blind Spot Warn-
ing indicator light flashes. Then the BSI system
slightly applies the brakes on one side to help
return the vehicle back to the center of the driving
lane.NOTE:
Illustration 4: If you accelerate from a stop
with a vehicle in the detection zone, the
other vehicle may not be detected.

light illuminates if you overtake a vehicle and that
vehicle stays in the detection zone for approxi-
mately 3 seconds.
The radar sensors may not detect slower moving
vehicles if they are passed quickly.Illustration 6: If the driver activates the turn signal
while another vehicle is in the detection zone,
then the system chimes a sound (twice) and the
Blind Spot Warning indicator light flashes.Illustration 7: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle approaches a lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone the system
chimes a sound (three times) and the Blind Spot
Warning indicator light flashes. Then, the BSI
system slightly applies the brakes on the appro-
priate side to help return the vehicle back to the
center of the driving lane.

Illustration 11: If the BSI system is on and your
vehicle approaches the lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, the Blind Spot
Warning indicator light flashes and a chime will
sound three times. Then, the BSI system slightly
applies the brakes on the appropriate side to help
return the vehicle back to the center of the driving
lane.NOTE:
●Illustration 12: The BSI system will not oper-
ate if your vehicle is on a lane marker when
another vehicle enters the detection zone. In
this case only the BSW system operates.
●BSI braking will not operate or will stop
operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions.
– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the accelerator pedal is applied
during BSI operation.– When steering quickly.
– When the ICC, DCA, FCW or IBA warn-
ings sound.

If the radar detects an approaching vehicle from
the side, the system chimes a sound (single
beep) , the Blind Spot Warning indicator light on
the side the approaching vehicle flashes and a
yellow rectangular frame appears in display “A”.NOTE:
●In the case of several vehicles approaching
in a row (Illustration 1) or in the opposite
direction (Illustration 2) , a chime may not be
sounded by the BCI system after the first
vehicle passes the sensors.
●The sonar system chime indicating there is a
object behind the vehicle has a higher prior-
ity than the BCI chime (single beep) indicat-
ing an approaching vehicle. If the BCI sys-
tem detects an object behind the vehicle
and an approaching vehicle at the same time
the following indications are provided:– The sonar system chime sounds
– The Blind Spot Warning indicator light on
the side of the approaching vehicle
flashes and
– A yellow rectangular frame appears in
display.
If an approaching vehicle or object behind the
vehicle is detected when your vehicle is backing
up, a red frame will appear in the displayAand
the system will chime 3 times. Then, the brakes
will be applied momentarily. After the automatic
brake application, the driver must depress the
brake pedal to maintain brake pressure.
