POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
•Make sure that all passengers have their
hands, etc. inside the vehicle while it is in
motion and before closing the windows. Use
the window lock switch to prevent unex-
pected use of the power windows.
•To help avoid risk of injury or death through
unintended operation of the vehicle and or
its systems, including entrapment in win-
dows or inadvertent door lock activation, do
not leave children, people who require the
assistance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the temperature
inside a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to cause a sig-
nificant risk of injury or death to people and
pets.
The switches for all side windows are located on
the driver’s door. There is also a switch on each
door for the corresponding side window The
switches on the driver’s door take precedence.
Auto-reverse function
The auto-reverse function can be activated
when a window is closed by automatic opera-
tion. Depending on the environment or driving condi-
tions, the auto-reverse function may be acti-
vated if an impact or load similar to something
being caught in the window occurs.
WARNING
There are some small distances immediately
before the closed position which cannot be
detected. Make sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc., inside the vehicle before
closing the window.
If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected, re-
placed, or jump started, the power window
auto-reverse function may not operate properly.
If this occurs, it is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer to re-initialize the power win-
dow auto-reverse system.
If the control unit detects something caught in a
window equipped with automatic operation as
it is closing, the window will be immediately
lowered.
Driver’s window switch
The power windows operate when the ignition
switch is in the ON position. 1. Front left side window
2. Front right side window
3. Rear left side window
4. Rear right side window
The driver’s switch, the main switch, can control
all windows.

When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be opened
using the inside or outside door handles. The
doors must be unlocked to open the doors.
WARNING
•Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
•Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the assistance of others
alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not
be left alone. They could accidentally injure
themselves or others through inadvertent
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.

the driving situation permits. The automatic
transmission switches to the previously acti-
vated drive program E or S. When driving on
downhill gradients, the temporarily active
manual drive program M will only be deacti-
vated if the accelerator pedal is depressed
while the vehicle is rolling downhill.
Upshifting
:
Pull the right-hand steering wheel gearshift
paddle (seeSteering wheel gearshift paddles
earlier in this section). The automatic transmis-
sion shifts up to the next gear.
In order to prevent engine damage the auto-
matic transmission automatically shifts up if
the maximum engine speed on the currently
engaged gear is reached and you depress the
accelerator pedal. Gearshift recommendation
:
The gearshift recommendations assist you in
adopting an economical driving style. The rec-
ommended gear is shown in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
Shift to recommended gear
1according to
gearshift recommendation
2when shown in
the vehicle information display.
Downshifiting
:
Pull the left-hand steering wheel gearshift
paddle (see Steering wheel gearshift paddles
earlier in this section). The automatic transmis-
sion shifts down to the next gear.
If you slow down or stop without shifting down,
the automatic transmission automatically shifts
down. For maximum acceleration, pull the left-hand
steering wheel gearshift paddle until the trans-
mission selects the optimum gear for the cur-
rent speed.
If the engine exceeds the maximum engine
speed when shifting down, the automatic trans-
mission protects against engine damage by not
shifting down.
Kickdown
:
You can also use kickdown for maximum accel-
eration in manual drive program M
•Depress the accelerator pedal beyond the
pressure point The transmission shifts to a
lower gear depending on the engine speed.
•Shift back up once the desired speed is
reached.
During kickdown, you cannot shift gears using
the steering wheel gearshift paddles.
If you apply full throttle, the automatic trans-
mission shifts up to the next gear when the
maximum engine speed is reached. This pre-
vents the engine from overrevving.

The electric parking brake can only be released
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
APPLYING AUTOMATICALLY (VEHICLES
WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION)
The electric parking brake is automatically ap-
plied when:
•Intelligent cruise control (if equipped) brings
the vehicle to a standstill.
or
•Intelligent Parking Assist (if equipped) is
keeping the vehicle stationary.
The red
indicator lamp lights up in the
combination meter.
The electric parking brake is not automatically
applied if the engine is switched off by the Idle
Stop/Start function.
RELEASING AUTOMATICALLY
The electric parking brake can only be released
automatically in vehicles with automatic trans-
mission.
The electric parking brake of your vehicle is
released automatically when all of the following
conditions are fulfilled:
•The engine is running.
•The transmission is in position D (Drive) or R
(Reverse).
•The seat belt is fastened.
•You depress the accelerator pedal.
If the transmission is in position R, the lift gate
must be closed.
If your seat belt is not fastened, the following
conditions must be fulfilled to automatically
release the electric parking brake:
•The driver’s door is closed
•You have shifted out of transmission position
P (Park) or you have previously driven faster
than 2 MPH (3 km/h).
Ensure that you do not depress the accelerator
pedal unintentionally. Otherwise, the parking
brake will be released and the vehicle will start
to move.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
The vehicle can also be braked during an emer-
gency by using the electric parking brake.
While driving, push handle
1of the electric
parking brake. The vehicle is braked as long as
you keep handle
1of the electric parking
brake pressed. The longer the electric parking
brake handle
1is depressed, the greater the
braking force.
During braking:
•A warning tone sounds.
•The [Please Release Parking Brake] message
appears.
•The redindicator lamp in the combi-
nation meter flashes.
When the vehicle has been braked to a stand-
still, the electric parking brake is applied.
