2017 INFINITI QX60 HYBRID warning

●The PFCW system (if so equipped) is inte-
grated into the FEB with pedestrian detec-
tion system. There is not a separate selec-
tion in the vehicle information display for the
PFCW system. When the FEB with pedes-
trian detection is turned off, the PFCW sys-
tem is also turned off.
FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB with pedestrian detection system.
Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem cannot detect all vehicles or pedes-
trians under all conditions.
● The radar sensor FEB with pedestrian
detection system does not detect the
following objects:
– Small pedestrians (including small children) , animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or using mobile transport such as scooters,
child-operated toys, or skateboards. – Pedestrians who are seated or other-
wise not in a full upright standing or
walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem has some performance limitations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the vehi- cle’s path, the FEB with pedestrian
detection system will not function
when the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 50 mph
(80 km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the FEB with pedestrian detection system will
not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 mph (10km/h) .
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem will not function for pedestrians in
darkness or in tunnels, even if there is
street lighting in the area. ●
For pedestrians, the FEB with pedes-
trian detection system will not issue the
first warning and will not push the ac-
celerator pedal up.
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if the vehicle
ahead is narrow (for example a
motorcycle) .
● The FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem may not function if speed differ-
ence between the two vehicles is too
small.
● The radar sensor FEB with pedestrian
detection system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle ahead in the
following conditions:
o Poor visibility (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
o Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
o Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
o If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
5-112Starting and driving

o Interference by other radar sources.
o The camera area of windshield isfogged up, or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
o Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera. Strong light
causes the area around the pedes-
trian to be cast in a shadow, making
it difficult to see.
o A sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or a shaded
area or lightning flashes.)
o The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having clothing
color or pattern which is similar to
the background.
o The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable due to the
pedestrian transporting luggage,
wearing bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories.
● The system performance may degrade
in the following conditions:
o The vehicle is driven on a slippery road. o The vehicle is driven on a slope.
o Excessively heavy baggage is loaded
in the rear seat or the trunk room of
your vehicle.
● The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor (radar and camera)’s
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect blockage of
sensor areas covered by ice, snow or
stickers, for example. In these cases,
the system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you check,
clean and clear sensor areas regularly.
● In some road and traffic conditions, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, de-
press the accelerator pedal to override
the system.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
Condition A:
In the following conditions, the FEB with pedes-
trian detection system warning light blinks and
the system will be turned off automatically.● The radar sensor picks up interference from
another radar source.
● The camera area of windshield is misted or
frozen.
● Strong light is shining from the front.
● The cabin temperature is over approximately
104°F [40°C] in direct sunlight.
● The camera area of windshield glass is con-
tinuously covered with dirt, etc.

Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system will re-
sume automatically.
NOTE:
When the inside of the windshield on cam-
era area is misted or frozen, it will take a
period of time to remove it after A/C turns
ON. If dirt appears on this area, visit an
INFINITI retailer.
Condition B:
In the following conditions, the FEB system warn-
ing light will illuminate and the system will be
turned off automatically and the “Front radar ob-
struction” warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.● The sensor area of the front bumper is cov-
ered with dirt or is obstructed. Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop the
vehicle in a safe place, place the shift lever in the
P (Park) position and turn the hybrid system off.
Clean the radar sensor area of front bumper or
the camera area of windshield with a soft cloth,
and restart the hybrid system. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the FEB system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
NOTE:
If the FEB with pedestrian detection system
stops working, the PFCW system (if so
equipped) will also stop working.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the FEB with pedestrian detection system mal-
functions, it will be turned off automatically, a
chime will sound, the FEB system warning light
(orange) will illuminate and the warning message
[Malfunction] will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display. Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop the
vehicle in a safe location, turn the hybrid system
off and restart the hybrid system. If the warning
light continues to illuminate, have the FEB with
pedestrian detection system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
NOTE:
If the FEB with pedestrian detection system
stops working, the PFCW system (if so
equipped) will also stop working.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensorAis located behind the lower
grille of the front bumper. The camera
Bis
located on the upper side of the windshield.
To keep the FEB with pedestrian detection sys-
tem operating properly, be sure to observe the
following:
● Always keep sensor areas of the front bum-
per and windshield clean.
● Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensors (ex. Bumper, windshield) . ●
Do not cover or attach stickers, or install any
accessory near the sensors. This could
block sensor signals, and/or cause failure or
malfunction.
● Do not attach metallic objects near the radar
sensor (brush guard, etc.) . This could cause
failure or malfunction.
● Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s detection
capability.
● Do not alter, remove or paint the front bum-
per. Before customizing or restoring the
front bumper, contact an INFINITI retailer.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the PFCW system
could result in serious injury or death.
●The PFCW system can help warn the
driver before a collision occurs but will
not avoid a collision. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
The PFCW system can help alert the driver when
there is a sudden braking of a second vehicle
traveling in front of the vehicle ahead in the same
lane. The PFCW system uses a radar sensor
Alo-
cated behind the lower grille of the front bumper
to measure the distance to the vehicle ahead in
the same lane.
