Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)position.
2. Use one of the following methods to move the driver’ s seat, the outside
mirrors and the steering wheel.
.Push the ignition switch to the ON position and push the memory
switch (1 or 2) fully for at least 1
second.
.Within 45 seconds of opening thedriver’ s door, push the memory
switch (1 or 2) fully for at least 1
second.
The driver’s seat, steering column and
outside mirrors will move to the mem-
orized position or to the exit position
when the entry/exit function is set to
active with the indicator light flashing,
and then the light will stay on for
approximately 5 seconds.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will
not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions:
. When the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH
(7 km/h). .
When the adjusting switch for the
driver’s seat and steering column is
turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
. When the memory switch 1 or 2 is not
pushed for at least 1 second.
. When the seat, steering column and
outside mirrors have already been
moved to the memorized position.
. When no position is stored in the
memory switch.
. When the engine is started while
moving the automatic drive positioner.
. When the AT shift lever is moved from
the P (Park) position to any other
position. (However, it will not be
canceled if the switch is pushed while
the seat and steering column are
returning to the previous positions
(entry/exit function).)
. When the driver’s door remains open
for more than 45 seconds and the
ignition switch is not in the ON posi-
tion.
. The seat synchronization function is
automatically disabled if the outside
mirrors or steering wheel reaches its
maximum adjustment. .
The seat synchronization function will
not operate if the seat is adjusted over
one of the following maximum thresh-
olds:
— Seat sliding: 3.0 in (76 mm)
— Seatback reclining: 9.1 degrees
— Seat lifter (rear side): 0.8 in (20 mm)

When the“”*1is selected, the
indicator
*2will turn off and the sonar
will be turned off temporarily. The Moving
Object Detection (MOD) system will also be
turned off at the same time. (See “Moving
Object Detection (MOD)” (P.4-42).) When
the switch is selected again, the indicator
will turn on and the sonar will turn back on.
In the below cases, the sonar will be
turned back on automatically:
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
. When the CAMERA button is pressed
and a screen other than the camera
view is shown on the display. .
When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. When the ignition switch is placed in
the “OFF” position and turned back to
the “ON” position again.
. When the switch is selected, the MOD
function will also be turned off.
To prevent the sonar system from activat-
ing altogether, use the “Camera Settings”
menu. For more information, see “Around
view monitor settings” (P.4-45) in this
section.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION (MOD)
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system
can inform the driver of the moving objects
surrounding the vehicle when driving out
of garages, maneuvering into parking lots
and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown on the display.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is
displayed:
. When the shift lever is in the P (Park) or
N (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects the
moving objects in the bird-eye view. The MOD system will not operate if the
outside mirror is moving in or out or if
either door is opened.
. When the shift lever is in the D (Drive)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the front view or front-wide view.
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the rearview or rear-wide view. The
MOD system will not operate if the lift
gate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD
icon is not displayed on the screen when in
this view.
WARNING
. The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not
designed to prevent contact with the
objects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirror and rear view mirror and turn and
check the surrounding to ensure it is

fully appreciated and safety assured.FREEING A FROZEN DOOR LOCK
To prevent a door lock from freezing, apply
deicer through the key hole. If the lock
becomes frozen, heat the key before
inserting it into the key hole or use the
Intelligent Key system.
ANTIFREEZE
In the winter when it is anticipated that the
outside temperature will drop below 328F
(08C), check antifreeze to assure proper
winter protection. For additional informa-
tion, see “Engine cooling system” (P.8-9).
BATTERY
If the battery is not fully charged during
extremely cold weather conditions, the
battery fluid may freeze and damage the
battery. To maintain maximum efficiency,
the battery should be checked regularly.
For additional information, see “Battery”
(P.8-17).
DRAINING OF COOLANT WATER
If the vehicle is to be left outside without
antifreeze, drain the cooling system, in-
cluding the engine block. Refill before
operating the vehicle. For details, see
“Engine cooling system” (P.8-9).
TIRE EQUIPMENT
SUMMER tires have a tread designed to
provide superior performance on dry pave-
ment. However, the performance of these
tires will be substantially reduced in snowy
and icy conditions. If you operate your
vehicle on snowy or icy roads, INFINITI
recommends the use of MUD & SNOW or
ALL SEASON tires on all four wheels.
Consult an INFINITI retailer for the tire
type, size, speed rating and availability
information.
For additional traction on icy roads,
studded tires may be used. However, some
U.S. states and Canadian provinces prohi-
bit their use. Check local, state and
provincial laws before installing studded
tires.
Skid and traction capabilities of studded
snow tires, on wet or dry surfaces, may be
poorer than that of non-studded snow
tires.
Tire chains may be used. For details, see
“Tire chains”(P.8-39) of this manual.
For all-wheel drive
If you install snow tires, they must also be
the same size, brand, construction and
tread pattern on all four wheels.
