2015 INFINITI QX60 steering

When driving on some roads, such as winding,
hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads which are
under construction, the ICC sensor may detect
vehicles in a different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This may cause
the ICC system to decelerate or accelerate the
vehicle.
The detection of vehicles may also be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or traveling
position in the lane, etc.) or vehicle condition.If
this occurs, the ICC system may warn you
by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime unexpectedly. You will have to manually control the proper dis-
tance away from the vehicle traveling
ahead.
When driving on the freeway at a set speed and
approaching a slower traveling vehicle ahead, the
ICC will adjust the speed to maintain the dis-
tance, selected by the driver, from the vehicle
ahead. If the vehicle ahead changes lanes or exits
the freeway, the ICC system will accelerate and
maintain the speed up to the set speed. Pay
attention to the driving operation to maintain con-
trol of the vehicle as it accelerates to the set
speed.
The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on
winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you will have
to manually control the vehicle speed.

NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound
and the system display may blink when the
ICC sensor detects objects on the side of
the vehicle
Aor on the side of the roadA.
This may cause the ICC system to deceler-
ate or accelerate the vehicle. The ICC sen-
sor may detect these objects when the ve-
hicle is driven on winding roads, narrow
roads, hilly roads, or when entering or exit-
ing a curve. In these cases you will have to
manually control the proper distance
ahead of your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driving
position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle condition
(for example, if a vehicle is being driven with some
damage) .
Automatic cancellation
A chime sounds under the following conditions
and the control is automatically canceled.
● When the vehicle ahead is not detected and
your vehicle is traveling below the speed of
15 MPH (24 km/h)
● When the system judges the vehicle is at
standstill ●

When driving on some roads, such as winding,
hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads which are
under construction, the sensor may detect ve-
hicles in a different lane, or may temporarily not
detect a vehicle traveling ahead. This may cause
the system to work inappropriately.
The detection of vehicles may also be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or traveling
position in the lane, etc.) or vehicle condition.If
this occurs, the system may warn you by
blinking the system indicator and sounding
the chime unexpectedly. You will have to
manually control the proper distance away
from the vehicle traveling ahead.DCA system display and indicators
The display is located between the speedometer

●Depending on certain road conditions
(curved or beginning of a curve) , vehicle
conditions (steering position or vehicle
position) , or the preceding vehicle’s
conditions (position in lane, etc.) , the
system may not function properly. The
system may detect highly reflective ob-
jects such as signs and other stationary
objects on the road or near the traveling
lane and provide unnecessary warning.
● The system may not function in offset
conditions.
● The system may not function when the
distance to the vehicle ahead is ex-
tremely close.
● The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s functionality. If the
sensor area of the front bumper is cov-
ered with ice, a transparent or translu-
cent bag, etc., the system may not de-
tect them. In these instances, the
system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure to check and
clean the sensor area of the front bum-
per regularly.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard. ●
A sudden appearance of a vehicle in
front (for example, it abruptly cuts in)
may not be detected and the system
may not warn the driver soon enough.
● The system will be cancelled automati-
cally with a beep sound and a message
will pop up under the following
conditions:
– When the sensor area of the front bumper is dirty
– When the system malfunctions
If the system cancels and a message appears
with a beep sound, pull off the road to a safe
location, stop the vehicle and turn the engine off.
Check to see if the sensor area of the front
bumper is blocked. If the sensor area of the front
bumper is blocked, remove the object blocking
and restart the engine.
If the sensor is malfunctioning, have the system
checked by an INFINITI retailer.
FCW SYSTEM OPERATION
