2017 INFINITI QX30 Radar

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE
When the radar sensor area is covered with dirt
or is obstructed, the system will automatically
be canceled. If the radar sensor area is covered
with ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl bag,
etc., the ICC system may not detect them. In
these instances, the ICC system may not cancel
and may not be able to maintain the selected
following distance from the vehicle ahead.
If the ICC system stops working due to a
malfunction or some other reason, one of the
following messages will be displayed in the
vehicle information display
2.
•[ICC off]
•[ICC Now Available]
•[ICC Currently Unavailable See Operator’s
Manual]
•[ICC Inoperative]
•[ICC Suspended]
•[ICC–––MPH]
[ICC off]: The ICC system has been deactivated.
If it was not deactivated by the driver, a warning
tone also sounds. [ICC Now Available]:
The ICC system is opera-
tional again after having been temporarily un-
available. You can now reactivate the ICC sys-
tem.
[ICC Currently Unavailable See Operator’s
Manual]: The ICC system is temporarily inopera-
tive. Possible causes:
•The function is impaired due to heavy rain or
snow.
•The radar sensor system is temporarily inop-
erative, e. g. due to electromagnetic radia-
tion emitted by nearby TV or radio stations or
other sources of electromagnetic radiation.
•The system is outside the operating tempera-
ture range.
•The on-board voltage is too low.
A warning tone also sounds.
Once the causes listed above no longer apply,
the display message goes out.
If the display message does not disappear:
•Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon
as possible, paying attention to road and
traffic conditions.
•Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
•Restart the engine. [ICC Inoperative]:
The ICC system is malfunc-
tioning. The adaptive brake assist function may
also have failed. A warning tone also sounds.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
[ICC Suspended]: You have depressed the accel-
erator pedal. The ICC system is no longer
controlling the speed of the vehicle.
The display message should disappear when
you remove your foot from the accelerator pedal
[ICC–––MPH]: An activation condition for the
ICC system is not fulfilled.
Check the activation conditions for the ICC
system.

The FEB system uses a radar sensorAlocated
behind the INFINITI logo to measure the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead in the traveling lane.

Autonomous braking function
If the driver does not react to the distance
warning signal in a critical situation, the FEB
system can assist with the autonomous braking
function
The autonomous braking function can help the
driver to avoid an accident or reduces the
effects of an accident.
The autonomous braking function is available in
the following speed ranges:
•4–125 MPH (7-200 km/h) for moving vehicles
•4–30 MPH (7 -50 km/h) for stationary ve-
hicles
Adaptive brake assist function
Adaptive brake assist function provides braking
assistance in hazardous situations at speeds
above 4MPH (7 km/h). It uses radar sensor
technology to assess the traffic situation.
If the system detects a risk of collision with the
vehicle in front, it calculates the braking force
necessary to avoid a collision. If you apply the
brakes forcefully, the adaptive brake assist
function will automatically increase the braking
force to a level suitable for the traffic condi-
tions.
If the adaptive brake assist function activates,
keep the brake pedal depressed until the emer-
gency braking situation is over. ABS prevents
the wheels from locking.
The brakes will work normally again if:
•You release the brake pedal.
•There is no longer any danger of a collision.
•No obstacle is detected in front of your
vehicle.
The brake assist function is then deactivated. At high speeds, the adaptive brake assist func-
tion is capable of reacting to moving objects
that have already been detected as such at
least once over the period of observation.
Up to a speed of approximately 45 MPH (70
km/h), the adaptive brake assist function reacts
to stationary vehicles.

FEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for the
FEB system. Failure to operate the vehicle in
accordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
•The FEB system cannot detect all vehicles
under all conditions.
•The radar sensor does not detect the follow-
ing objects:– Pedestrians or animals
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
•The radar sensor has some performance
limitations. For stationary vehicles, the FEB
system will not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over:
– Approximately 31 MPH (50 km/h) for the
Autonomous braking function.
•The radar sensor may not detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering
the radar sensor.
– Interference by other radar sources.
– Snow or heavy rain.
– If the vehicle ahead is narrow (e.g. mo-
torcycle). –
If the vehicle ahead is in a different lane.
– Under strong radar reflections, for ex-
ample, in a multi-level parking garage.
– New vehicle or after a maintenance of the
FEB system. For additional information,
see Break-in schedule later in this sec-
tion
– When driving on a steep downhill slope
or roads with sharp curves.
– When towing a trailer.
•In some road or traffic conditions, the FEB
system may intervene unnecessarily or give
an unnecessary warning. Always pay care-
ful attention to the traffic situation. Do not
rely solely on the distance warning function
and terminate the intervention if necessary.
•Braking distances increase on slippery sur-
faces.
•The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s functionality, within cer-
tain limitations. The system may not detect
some forms of obstruction of the sensor
area such as ice, snow, stickers, for ex-
ample. In these cases, the system may not
be able to warn the driver properly. Be sure
that you check, clean and clear the sensor
area regularly.
•Excessive noise will interfere with the warn-
ing chime sound, and the chime may not be
heard.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE
If the FEB stops working due to a malfunction or
some other reason, one of the following three
messages will be displayed in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
•[Emergency Brake Currently Unavailable See
Operator’s Manual]
•[Emergency Brake Inoperative]
•[Radar Sensors Dirty See Operator’s Manual]
For each of these messages, possible causes
and solutions are listed below.
[Emergency Brake Currently Unavailable See
Operator’s Manual]: The FEB system is tempo-
rarily inoperative. Possible causes:
•The radar sensor system is temporarily inop-
erative, for example, due to electromagnetic
radiation emitted by nearby TV or radio sta-
tions or other sources of electromagnetic
radiation.
•The system is outside the operating tempera-
ture range.
Starting and driving5-65

•The on-board voltage is too low.
Once the causes listed above no longer apply,
the display message goes out. The FEB system
is operative again.
If the display message does not disappear:
•Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon
as possible, paying attention to road and
traffic conditions.
•Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
•Switch off the engine.
[Emergency Brake Inoperative]: The FEB system
is temporarily inoperative due to a malfunction.
The adaptive brake assist function may also
have failed.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer.
[Radar Sensors Dirty See Operator’s Manual]:
The FEB system is temporarily restricted or
inoperative. Possible causes:
•The sensor behind the INFINITI logo is dirty.
•The function of the FEB system is impaired
due to heavy rain or snow. A warning tone also sounds.
Once the causes listed above no longer apply,
the display message goes out. The FEB system
is operative again.
If the display message does not disappear:
•Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon
as possible, paying attention to road and
traffic conditions.
•Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
•Switch off the engine.
•Clean the area around the sensors.
•Restart the engine. The display message
disappears.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensorAis located behind the INFINITI
logo at the front of the vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly, be sure
to observe the following:
•Always keep the sensor area of the INFINITI
logo clean.
•Do not strike or damage the areas around the
sensor.
•Do not cover or attach stickers or similar
objects on the front bumper near the sensor
area. This could cause failure or malfunction.
•Do not attach metallic objects near the sen-
sor area (brush guard, etc.). This could cause
failure or malfunction.
