LANE CAMERA UNIT
MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unit1for the LDW/LDP sys-
tem is located above the inside mirror. To keep
the proper operation of the LDW/ LDP systems
and prevent a system malfunction, be sure to
observe the following:
● Always keep the windshield clean.
● Do not attach a sticker (including transpar-
ent material) or install an accessory near the
camera unit. ●
Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability of
detecting the lane markers.
● Do not strike or damage the areas around
the camera unit. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove the screw located on the
camera unit. If the camera unit is damaged
due to an accident, contact an INFINITI re-
tailer. This section contains the information about the
following systems:
● Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
● Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI®) system
● Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) system
(if so equipped)
WARNING
● The BSW and BSI systems are not a
replacement for proper driving proce-
dure 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
direction you will move to ensure it is
safe to change lanes. Never rely solely
on the BSW or BSI system.
● There is a limitation to the detection
capability of the radar or the sonar. Not
every moving object or vehicle will be
detected. Using the BSI and BCI sys-
tems under some road, ground, lane
marker, traffic or weather conditions
could lead to improper system opera-
tion. Always rely on your own operation
to avoid accidents.

BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW)
SYSTEM/BLIND SPOT
INTERVENTION® (BSI) SYSTEMS
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind Spot
Intervention® (BSI) systems can help alert the
driver of other vehicles in adjacent lanes when
changing lanes.
The BSW system uses radar sensors
2in-
stalled near the rear bumper to detect other ve-
hicles beside your vehicle in an adjacent lane. In
addition to the radar sensors, the BSI system
uses a camera
1installed behind the windshield
to monitor the lane markers of your traveling lane. The radar sensors can detect vehicles on either
side of your vehicle within the detection zone
shown as illustrated. This detection zone starts
from the outside mirror of your vehicle and ex-
tends approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear
bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) side-
ways.
The BSW system operates above approximately
20 MPH (32 km/h). If the radar sensors detects
vehicles in the detection zone, the Blind Spot
Warning indicator light illuminates. If the driver
then activates the turn signal, a chime will sound
twice and the Blind Spot Warning indicator light
will flash.

Page 371 of 544

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 brightdue 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.

THE BACK-UP COLLISION
INTERVENTION (BCI) SYSTEM (if so
equipped)
WARNING
●The BCI system is not a replacement for
proper driving procedure, is not de-
signed to prevent contact with vehicles
or objects and does not provide full
brake power. When backing out of park-
ing space, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the direc-
tion you will move. Never rely solely on
the BCI system. ●
There is a limitation to the detection
capability of the radar or the sonar. Us-
ing the BSI and BCI systems under
some road, ground, lane marker, traffic
or weather conditions could lead to im-
proper system operation. Always rely
on your own operation to avoid
accidents.
BCI SYSTEM OPERATION
The BCI systems can help alert the driver of an
approaching vehicle or objects behind the ve-
hicle when the driver is backing out of a parking
space.
When the shift position is R (Reverse) and the
vehicle speed is less than approximately 5 MPH
(8 km/h), the BCI system operates. The BCI system uses radar sensors
1installed
on both sides near the rear bumper to detect an
approaching vehicle and sonar sensors to detect
objects in the rear.
The radar sensors
1detect an approaching
vehicle from up to approximately 49 ft. (15 m)
away. The sonar sensors
2detect stationary
objects behind the vehicle up to approximately
4.9 feet (1.5 m)
