CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
Automatic headlight aiming control (if
so equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an automatic
headlight levelling system. The headlight axis is
controlled automatically.
INFINITI recommends that you consult the local
regulations on the use of lights.
For additional information, refer to “Xenon head-
light” in this section.
Manual headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may di-
rectly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle ahead
or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle. The
light axis can be lowered with the operation of the
switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.
When traveling without a heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview mir-
ror of the vehicle ahead or the windshield
of oncoming vehicle, the driver of these
vehicles may have difficulty driving be-
cause of the brightness. Use the headlight
aiming control switch to lower the light
axis. For additional information, refer to
“Xenon headlights” in this section.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
The daytime running lights automatically illumi-
nate when the engine is started with the parking
brake released. The daytime running lights oper-
ate with the headlight switch in the OFF position
or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch
to the
position for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the engine is
started, the daytime running lights do not illumi-
nate. The daytime running lights illuminate when
the parking brake is released. The daytime run-
ning lights will remain on until the ignition switch
is placed in the OFF position.

vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
●The system cannot completely elimi-
nate blind spots and may not show ev-
ery object.
●Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed

bumper, and may not show objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
●Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.

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

WARNING
●The distance guide lines and the vehicle
width lines should be used as a refer-
ence only when the vehicle is on a
paved, level surface. The apparent dis-
tance viewed on the monitor may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed
objects.
●Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly affected
by the number of occupants, cargo, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condition
and road grade.●If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
●When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
●Objects in the rear view will appear vi-
sually opposite compared to when
viewed in the monitor and outside
mirrors.
●Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
●On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course lines and the actual
course line.
●The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width
and course.
●The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right, because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.Front and rear view
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate ve-
hicle width and distance to objects with refer-
ence to the vehicle body line
