2017 INFINITI QX30 lights

The engine can be switched off automatically a
maximum of four times (initial stop, then three
subsequent stops) in succession. The
Idle Stop/Start symbol is shown in yellow in the
vehicle information display after the engine has
been started automatically for the fourth time.
When the
Idle Stop/Start symbol is
shown in green in the vehicle information dis-
play, automatic engine switch-off is again pos-
sible.
NOTE
If the hood is opened while the engine is running
and the Idle Stop/Start function is operational,
the engine will switch off automatically.
If the vehicle is brought to a standstill in D or N,
the Idle Stop/Start function switches off the
engine automatically.
AUTOMATIC ENGINE START
The engine is started automatically if:
•You switch off the Idle Stop/Start function
by pressing the ECO button.
•You engage Reverse R or Drive D.
•You unfasten your seat belt or open the
driver’s door.
•The vehicle starts to roll.
•The brake system requires this.
•The temperature in the vehicle interior devi-
ates from the set range.
•The system detects moisture on the wind-
shield when the air-conditioning system is
switched on.
•The battery’s charge status is too low.
The engine is started automatically if you:
•Release the brake pedal in transmission
position D (Drive) or N (Neutral).
•Depress the accelerator pedal.
•Move the transmission out of position P
(Park).
Shifting the transmission to position P (Park)
does not start the engine.
If you shift the transmission from R (Reverse) to
D (Drive), the Idle Stop/Start function is avail-
able again once the
Idle Stop/Start
symbol reappears in green in the vehicle infor-
mation display.

•The LDW system is primarily intended for
use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers in
certain roads, weather or driving condi-
tions.
•Do not use the LDW system under the fol-
lowing conditions as it may not function
properly:
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
etc.).
–When driving on slippery roads, such as
on ice or snow, etc.
–When driving on winding or uneven
roads.
–When there is a lane closure due to road
repairs.
–When driving in a makeshift or tempo-
rary lane.
–When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow.
–When driving without normal tire condi-
tions (for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels).
–When the vehicle is equipped with non-
original brake parts or suspension parts.
•The camera may not detect lane markers in
the following situations and the LDW sys-
tem may not operate properly.
–On roads where there are multiple par-
allel lane markers; lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
–On roads where the discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
–On roads where there are sharp curves.
–On roads where there are sharply con-
trasting objects, such as shadows,
snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or lines
remaining after road repairs. (The LDW
system could detect these items as lane
markers.)
–On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
–When the vehicle’s traveling direction
does not align with the lane marker.
–When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
–When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the
windshield in front of the lane camera
unit.–When the headlights are not bright due
to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
–When strong light enters the lane cam-
era unit. (For example, the light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at sun-
rise or sunset.)
–When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
–When there is poor visibility. (For ex-
ample, due to insufficient illumination of
the road, or due to snow, rain, fog or
spray.
–When there is glare. (For example, from
oncoming traffic, the sun or reflection
when the road is wet).

Illustration 2:If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice) and the BSW
indicator light flashes. The BSW indicator light
continues to flash until the detected vehicles
leave the detection zone.
NOTE
•The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
•The brightness of the BSW indicator lights is
adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.
•If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal, then
only the BSW indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. (SeeAnother vehicle ap-
proaching from behindlater in this section.)A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver acti-
vates the turn signal.
WARNING
•Do not use the BSW system when towing a
trailer because the system may not function
properly.
•Excessive noise (for example audio system
volume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
•The radar sensors may not be able to detect
and activate BSW when certain objects are
present such as:
–Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
–Several types of vehicles such as motor-
cycles
–Oncoming vehicles
–Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a stop.
–A vehicle merging into an adjacent lane
at a speed approximately the same as
your vehicle.
–A vehicle approaching rapidly from be-
hind.
–A vehicle which your vehicle overtakes
rapidly.
•Severe weather or road spray conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to detect
other vehicles.
•The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar sen-
sors may not detect vehicles in an adjacent
lane. When driving in a narrow lane, the
radar sensors may detect vehicles driving
two lanes away.
•The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects, however objects
such as guardrails, walls, foliage and
parked vehicles may occasionally be de-
tected. This is a normal operating condition.

System operation
The driver sets the desired vehicle speed based
on the road conditions. The ICC system main-
tains the set vehicle speed, similar to standard
cruise control, as long as no vehicle is detected
in the lane ahead. The ICC system displays the
set speed for 5 seconds after the cruise control
lever is activated.
Vehicle detected ahead
:
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead,
the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by con-
trolling the throttle and applying the brakes to
match the speed of a slower vehicle ahead. The
system then controls the vehicle speed based
on the speed of the vehicle ahead to maintain
the driver selected distance.The brake lights of the vehicle come on when
braking is performed by the ICC system. When
the brake operates, a noise may be heard. This
is not a malfunction.
When a vehicle ahead is detected, the vehicle
ahead symbol
1appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display.
Vehicle ahead not detected
:
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead, the
ICC system gradually accelerates your vehicle to
resume the previously set vehicle speed. The
ICC system then maintains the set speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead display turns off
2.If a vehicle ahead appears during acceleration
to the set vehicle speed or any time the ICC
system is in operation, the system controls the
distance to that vehicle.
Changing lanes to pass another
vehicle:
When you changes lane to pass another ve-
hicle, ICC supports the action if:
•The vehicle speed is more than 45 MPH (70
km/h)
•The ICC is maintaining the distance to a
vehicle in front
•The respective turn signal is activated
If these conditions are met, the vehicle will be
accelerated. Acceleration will be interrupted if
changing lanes takes too long or if the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
becomes too small.

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.

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.

10. Drive forward and back up as prompted by
the parking sensor system warning dis-
plays, several times if necessary.
Once you have exited the parking space com-
pletely, the steering wheel is moved to the
straight-ahead position. You hear a tone and
the [Park Assist switched off] message appears
in the display. You will then have to steer and
merge into traffic on your own. The parking
sensor system is still available. You can take
over the steering before the vehicle has exited
the parking space completely. This is useful, for
example when you recognise that it is already
possible to pull out of the parking space.
CANCELING IPA
Stop the movement of the steering wheel or
steer yourself. IPA will be immediately can-
celed. The [Park Assist canceled] message ap-
pears in the vehicle information display.
or
Press the parking sensor system OFF switch.
The parking sensor system is switched off and
IPA is immediately canceled The [Park Assist
canceled] message appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display.IPA is canceled automatically if:
•The electric parking brake is applied
•Parking using IPA is no longer possible
•You are driving faster than 5 MPH (10 km/h)
•A wheel spins and VDC intervenes or fails.
Thewarning light lights up in the
combination meter.
A warning tone sounds. The parking symbol
disappears and the vehicle information display
shows the [Park Assist canceled] message.
When IPA is canceled, you must steer again
yourself.
WARNING
•The parking sensor system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper parking.
Always look around and check that it is safe
to do so before parking. Always move
slowly.
•Read and understand the limitations of the
parking sensor system as contained in this
section. Inclement weather may affect the
function of the parking sensor system; this
may include reduced performance or a false
activation.
•This system is not designed to prevent con-
tact with small or moving objects.
•The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary objects
to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The
system will not detect small objects below
the bumper, and may not detect objects that
are too close to the bumper or on the
ground.
•If your vehicle sustains damage to the bum-
per fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the
sensing zone may be altered causing inac-
curate measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
