2017 INFINITI QX30 Owners Manual

Cornering, entering and exiting a
bend
The ability of the ICC system to detect vehicles
when cornering is limited. Your vehicle may
brake unexpectedly or late.
Vehicles that are not driving in the
middle of their lane
The ICC system may not detect vehicles which
are not driving in the middle of their lane. The
system will not brake for or keep a following
distance to the car which is offset.
Other vehicles changing lanes
The ICC system has not detected the vehicle
cutting in yet. The system will not brake for or
keep a following distance to this vehicle.

5-56Starting and driving

Narrow vehicles (including
motorcycles)
The ICC system has not yet detected the vehicle
ahead on the edge of the lane because of its
narrow width. The system will not brake for or
keep a following distance to this vehicle.
Obstructions and stationary vehicles
The ICC system does not brake for obstacles or
stationary vehicles. If, for example, the de-
tected vehicle turns a corner and reveals an
obstacle or stationary vehicle The ICC system
will not brake for these.
Crossing vehicles
The ICC system may detect vehicles that are
crossing your lane by mistake. Activating the
ICC system at traffic lights with crossing traffic,
for example, could cause your vehicle to pull
away unintentionally.

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. Inthese 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

•[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
inoperative, e. g. due to electromagnetic
radiation emitted by nearby TV or radio sta-
tions or other sources of electromagnetic
radiation.
•The system is outside the operating tem-
perature 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.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the ICC systemAis located
behind the INFINITI logo at the front of the
vehicle.
To keep the ICC system operating properly, be
sure to observe the following:
•Always keep area around the sensor clean.
•Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensor. Do not touch or remove the screw
located on the sensor. Doing so could cause
failure or malfunction. If the sensor is dam-
aged due to an accident, it is recommended
you contact an INFINITI retailer.
•Do not cover or attach stickers (including
transparent material) or install an accessory
near the sensor. This could cause failure or
malfunction.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
for proper use of the FEB system could result in
serious personal injury or death.
•The FEB system is a supplemental aid to the
driver. It is not a replacement for the driver’s
attention to traffic conditions or responsi-
bility to drive safely. It cannot prevent acci-
dents due to carelessness or dangerous
driving techniques.
•The FEB system does not function in all
driving, traffic, weather and road
conditions.
The FEB system can assist the driver when there
is a risk of a forward collision with the vehicle
ahead in the traveling lane.The FEB system uses a radar sensorAlocated
behind the INFINITI logo to measure the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead in the traveling lane.

SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

FEB SYSTEM OPERATION
1Steering wheel mounted controls (left
side)
2Distance warning light
3Forward emergency braking OFF displayThe FEB system consists of a distance warning
function with an autonomous emergency brak-
ing function and adaptive brake assist function.
The FEB system can help you to minimize the
risk of a collision with the vehicle in front or
reduce the effects of such a collision
If the FEB system detects that there is a risk of
a collision, you will be warned visually and
audibly. If you do not react to the visual and
audible collision warning, autonomous braking
can be initiated in critical situations. If you
apply the brake yourself in a critical situation,
the adaptive brake assist function assists you.

Distance warning function
The distance warning function can help you to
minimize the risk of a collision with the vehicle
in front or reduce the effects of such a collision.
If the distance warning function detects that
there is a risk of a collision, you will be warned
visually and audibly.
The distance warning function issues a warning
at speeds:
•Of approximately 20 MPH (30 km/h) or
more, if, over several seconds the distance
maintained to the vehicle traveling in front is
insufficient. The distance warning light then
lights up in the combination meter.
•Of approximately 4 MPH (7 km/h) or more, if
you rapidly approach a vehicle in front. An
intermittent warning tone will then sound
and the distance warning light will light up in
the combination meter.
If a warning is issued:
•Brake immediately in order to increase the
distance from the vehicle in front.
or
•Take evasive action provided it is safe to do
so.
WARNING
Due to the nature of the system, particularly
complicated but non-critical driving conditions
may also cause the system to display a
warning.
Up to a speed of approximately 45 MPH (70
km/h), the distance warning function can also
react to stationary (stopped or parked) vehicles.
If you approach a stationary vehicle and the
distance warning function detects a risk of a
collision, the system will alert you both visually
and acoustically.
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 ve-
hicles
•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.
NSD598Distance warning light
5-62Starting and driving

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.
