Thebutton will be on the INFINITI Intelli-
gent Key if the vehicle has remote hybrid start.
This feature allows the hybrid system to start from
outside the vehicle.
The following features may be affected when the
remote start feature is used:
● Vehicles with an automatic climate control
system will default to either a heating or
cooling mode depending on the outside
temperature.
● Vehicles without automatic climate control
will default to the last used heating or cool-
ing mode. Laws in some local communities may restrict the
use of remote starters. For example, some laws
require a person using remote start to have the
vehicle in view. Check local regulations for any
requirements.
Other conditions may affect the function of the
remote hybrid start feature. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Conditions the remote start will
not work” in this section.
Other conditions can affect the performance of
the Intelligent Key transmitter. For additional in-
formation, refer to “INFINITI Intelligent Key Sys-
tem” in this section.REMOTE HYBRID START
OPERATING RANGE
The remote hybrid start function can only be used
when the Intelligent Key is within the specified
operating range from the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is discharged or
other strong radio wave sources are present near
the operating location, the Intelligent Key operat-
ing range becomes narrower, and the Intelligent
Key may not function properly.
The remote hybrid system start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE VEHICLE
To use the remote start feature to start the hybrid
system perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Press the
LOCK button to lock all
doors.
3. Within 5 seconds press and hold the
remote start button until the turn signal lights
flash and the tail lamps turn on. If the vehicle
is not within view press and hold the
remote start button for at least 2 seconds.
The following events will occur when the hybrid
system starts:
● The parking lights will turn on and remain on
as long as the hybrid system is running.
● The doors will be locked and the climate
control system may come on.
● The hybrid system will continue to run for
10 minutes. Repeat the steps to extend the
time for an additional 10 minutes. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Extending hybrid
system run time” in this section.

ing the vehicle” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
EXTENDING HYBRID SYSTEM RUN
TIME
The remote start feature can be extended one
time by performing the steps listed in “Remote
starting the vehicle” in this section. Run time will
be calculated as follows:● The first 10 minute run time will start when
the remote start function is performed.
● The second 10 minutes will start immedi-
ately when the remote start function is per-
formed again. For example, if the hybrid sys-
tem has been running for 5 minutes, and
10 minutes are added, the hybrid system will
run for a total of 15 minutes.
● Extending hybrid system run time will bring
you to the two remote start limit.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a single start
with an extension, are allowed between ignition
cycles. The ignition switch must be cycled to the
ON position and then back to the OFF position
before the remote start procedure can be used
again.
CANCELING A REMOTE START
To cancel a remote start, perform one of the
following: ● Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle and
press
until the parking lights turn off.
● Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
● Cycle the ignition switch ON and then OFF.
● The extended hybrid system run time has
expired.
● The first 10 minute timer has expired.
● The engine hood has been opened.
● The shift lever is moved out of park.
● The alarm sounds due to illegal entry into the
vehicle.
● The ignition switch is pushed without an
Intelligent Key in the vehicle.

following conditions are present:
● The ignition switch is placed in the ON po-
sition.
● The hood is not securely closed.
● The hazard indicator lights are on.
● The hybrid system is still running. The hybrid

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
on the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not show small objects below the
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.
● Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and out-
side mirrors.
● Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road conditions and road
grade.
● Make sure that the liftgate is securely
closed when backing up.
● Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.

The air conditioner system in your INFINITI ve-
hicle is charged with a refrigerant designed with
the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is re-
quired when servicing your INFINITI air condi-
tioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants
will cause severe damage to your air conditioner
system. For additional information, refer to “Air
conditioner system refrigerant and oil recommen-
dations” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for servicing your “environmentally friendly”
air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
●The driver must not attempt to operate
the audio system while the vehicle is in
motion, so that full attention may be
given to the vehicle operation.
● Park the vehicle in a safe location and
apply the parking brake before operat-
ing the audio system and playing mov-
ies (where fitted) .
CAUTION
● Operate the audio system only when
the vehicle hybrid system is running.
Operating the audio system for ex-
tended periods of time with the hybrid
system turned off can discharge the ve-
hicle battery.
● Do not allow these systems to get wet.
Excessive moisture such as spilled liq-
uids may cause the system to
malfunction.
Radio
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position before turning on the radio. If you listen
to the radio when the hybrid system is not run-
ning, the ignition switch should be pushed to
ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from the radio transmitter,
buildings, bridges, mountains, and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
quality are normally caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your radio system is equipped with state-of-the-
art electronic circuits to enhance radio reception.
These circuits are designed to extend reception
range, and to enhance the quality of that recep-
tion.
However there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can effect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the best quality equipment is used. These
characteristics are completely normal in a given
reception area, and do not indicate any malfunc-
tion in your radio system.
