WARNING
●Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for the proper use of the
Around View® Monitor system could
result in serious injury or death.
● The Around View® Monitor is a conve-
nience feature and is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation because it
has areas where objects cannot be
viewed. The four corners of the vehicle
in particular, are areas where objects do
not always appear in the bird’s-eye,
front, or rear views. Always check your
surroundings to be sure that it is safe to
move before operating the vehicle. Al-
ways operate the vehicle slowly.
● The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The Around View® Monitor system is designed
as an aid to the driver in situations such as slot
parking or parallel parking. The monitor displays various views of the position
of the vehicle in a split screen format. Not all
views are available at all times.
Available views:
● Front View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
front of the vehicle.
● Rear View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
● Bird’s-Eye View
The surrounding views of the vehicle from
above.
● Front-Side View
The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
● Front-Wide View
An approximately 180–degree view of the
front the vehicle.
● Rear-Wide View
An approximately 180–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle. To display the multiple views, the Around View®
Monitor system uses cameras located in the front
grille, on the vehicle’s outside mirrors and one
just above the vehicle’s license plate

The non-viewable area2is highlighted in yellow
for several seconds after the bird’s-eye view is
displayed. It will be shown only the first time after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
The driver can check the approximate direction
and angle of the tire on the display by the tire icon
3when driving the vehicle forward or backward.
WARNING
● Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap-
pear further than the actual distance.
● Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
● Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
● The view of the bird’s-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters.
● A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment
will increase as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
● Tire angle display does not indicate the
actual tire angle. Front-side view
Guiding lines

HOW TO SWITCH THE DISPLAY
With the ignition switch in the ON position, press
the CAMERA button or move the shift lever to the
R (Reverse) position to operate the Around
View® Monitor.
The Around View® Monitor displays different
split screen views depending on the position of
the shift lever. Press the CAMERA button or
touch the Change view key on the touch-screen
to switch between the available views.
If the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position, the
available views are:
● Rear view/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Rear view/front-side view split screen
● Rear-wide view If the shift lever is in the P (Park) position, the
available views are:
● Front view/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Front view/front-side view split screen
● Front-wide view
If the shift lever is in the D (Drive) position, the
only available view is front view/front-side view
split screen.
The display will switch from the Around View®
Monitor screen when: ● The shift lever is in the D (Drive) position and
the vehicle speed increases above approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h).
● A different screen is selected.
LHA1198
4-38Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
CAUTION
●Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
● Keep the surface of the Camera Aiding
Sonars (parking sensors) (located on
the front and rear bumper fascia) free
from accumulations of snow, ice and
dirt. Do not scratch the surface of the
Camera Aiding Sonars (parking sen-
sors) when cleaning. If the Camera Aid-
ing Sonars (parking sensors) are cov-
ered, the accuracy of the Camera Aiding
Sonar’s (parking sensor’s) function will
be diminished.
The system gives the tone for rear objects when
the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds. When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone sounds
intermittently. When the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the color of the indicator turns yellow
and the rate of the blinking and the rate of the
tone increase. When the vehicle is very close to
the object, the indicator stops blinking and turns
red, and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3 seconds
when an object is detected by only the corner
Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sensor) and the
distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no longer
near the vehicle.
In the below cases, the Camera Aiding Sonar
(parking sensor) will be turned back on automati-
cally:
● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
● When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h). ●
When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
● The Camera Aiding Sonar (parking sensor)
system can be permanently turned off using
the meter settings.

The air conditioner system in your INFINITI ve-
hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with
the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is re-
quired when servicing your INFINITI air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants
will cause severe damage to your air conditioner
system. For additional information, refer to “Air
conditioner system refrigerant and oil recommen-
dations” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
An INFINITI retailer is able to service your “envi-
ronmentally friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment.
RADIO
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position and press the ON·OFF button to turn the
radio on. If you listen to the radio with the engine
not running, the ignition switch should be placed
in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
normally are caused by these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your INFINITI radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance ra-
dio reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the qual-
ity of that reception.
However, there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the finest equipment is used. These char-
acteristics are completely normal in a given re-
ception area, and do not indicate any malfunction
in your INFINITI radio system.Reception conditions will constantly change be-
cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other ve-
hicles can work against ideal reception. De-
scribed below are some of the factors that can
affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the de-
vice in a different location may reduce or elimi-
nate the noise.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 – 30 mi
(40 – 48 km) , with monaural (single channel) FM
having slightly more range than stereo FM. Exter-
nal influences may sometimes interfere with FM
station reception even if the FM station is within
25 mi (40 km) . The strength of the FM signal is
directly related to the distance between the
transmitter and receiver. FM signals follow a line-
of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same char-
acteristics as light. For example, they will reflect
off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
