LANE DEPARTURE PREVENTION
(LDP) SYSTEM
Precautions on LDP system
WARNING
●The LDP system will not always steer
the vehicle to keep it in the lane. It is not
designed to prevent loss of control. It is
the driver’s responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, keep the vehicle in the trav-
eling lane, and be in control of vehicle at
all times.
● The LDP system is primarily intended
for use on well-developed freeways or
highways. It may not detect the lane
markers in certain roads, weather or
driving conditions.
● Using the LDP system under some con-
ditions of road, lane marker or weather,
or when you change lanes without us-
ing the lane change signal could lead to
an unexpected system operation. In
such conditions, you need to correct the
vehicle’s direction with your steering
operation to avoid accidents. ●
When the LDP system is operating,
avoid excessive or sudden steering ma-
neuvers. Otherwise, you could lose con-
trol 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 func-
tion properly:
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, 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 or tem- porary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow. – 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 LDP system may or may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
5-28Starting and driving

●On roads where there are multiple par-
allel 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 con-
trasting 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
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 cam-
era unit. (For example, the light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
● When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (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.
LDP system operation
The LDP system operates above approximately
45 MPH (70 km/h). When the vehicle ap-
proaches either the left or the right side of the
traveling lane, a warning chime will sound and the
LDW indicator light (orange) on the instrument
panel will blink to alert the driver. Then, the LDP
system will automatically apply the brakes for a
short period of time to help assist the driver to
return the vehicle to the center of the traveling
lane.

5-30Starting and driving

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 detect
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.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. For additional information, refer to
“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.When the warning systems switch is turned off,

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, refer to “BSW/BSI driving
situations” in this section. The BSI system
is typically activated earlier than the Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP) system when
your vehicle is approaching a lane marker.
