2017 INFINITI QX60 tow

The rain-sensing auto wiper system can auto-
matically turn on the wipers and adjust the wiper
speed depending on the rainfall and the vehicle
speed by using the rain sensor located on the
upper part of the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system, place
the lever in the AUTO position
1. The wiper will
sweep once while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
The rain sensor sensitivity level can be adjusted
by turning the knob toward the front
2(High) or
toward the rear
3(Low) .
– High — High sensitive operation
– Low — Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system off,
rotate the lever to the OFF position, or rotate the
lever to the LO or HI position.
For additional information on disabling the rain-
sensing feature, refer to “How to use the vehicle
information display” in “Vehicle information dis-
play” in this section.
REAR SWITCH OPERATION
WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solu-
tion may freeze on the rear window and
obscure your vision which may lead to an
accident. Warm the rear window with the
defroster before you wash the rear
window.
CAUTION
● Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
● Do not operate the washer if the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir is
empty.
● Do not fill the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir with windshield-washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based windshield-
washer fluid concentrates may perma-
nently stain the grille if spilled while
filling the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir.
● Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid con-
centrates with water to the manufactur-
er’s recommended levels before pour-
ing the fluid into the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir. Do not use the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir to
mix the windshield-washer fluid con-
centrate and water.
If the rear window wiper operation is interrupted
by snow, etc., the wiper may stop moving to
protect its motor. If this occurs, turn the wiper
switch to OFF and remove the snow, etc. on and
around the wiper arms. After about 1 minute, turn
the switch on again to operate the wiper.

WARNING
●Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those who
use a pacemaker should contact the
electric medical equipment manufac-
turer for the possible influences before
use.
● The Intelligent Key transmits radio
waves when the buttons are pressed.
The FAA advises the radio waves may
affect aircraft navigation and communi-
cation systems. Do not operate the In-
telligent Key while on an airplane. Make
sure the buttons are not operated unin-
tentionally when the unit is stored for a
flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all the
door locks using the remote control function or
pushing the request switch on the vehicle without
taking the key out from a pocket or purse. The
operating environment and/or conditions may af-
fect the Intelligent Key system operation.
Be sure to read the following before using the
Intelligent Key system.
CAUTION
● Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when operating the vehicle.
● Never leave the Intelligent Key in the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
The Intelligent Key is always communicating with
the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Intel-
ligent Key system transmits weak radio waves.
Environmental conditions may interfere with the
operation of the Intelligent Key system under the
following operating conditions: ● When operating near a location where
strong radio waves are transmitted, such as
a TV tower, power station and broadcasting
station.
● When in possession of wireless equipment,
such as a cellular telephone, transceiver or a
CB radio.
● When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or
covered by metallic materials.
● When any type of radio wave remote control
is used nearby.
● When the Intelligent Key is placed near an
electric appliance such as a personal com-
puter. ●
When the vehicle is parked near a parking
meter.
In such cases, correct the operating conditions
before using the Intelligent Key function or use
the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending
on the operating conditions, the battery’s life is
approximately two years. If the battery is dis-
charged, replace it with a new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is low, an indi-
cator illuminates in the vehicle information dis-
play. For additional information, refer to “Vehicle
information display” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section of this manual.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving
radio waves, if the key is left near equipment
which transmits strong radio waves, such as sig-
nals from a TV and personal computer, the bat-
tery life may become shorter.
For additional information, refer to “Battery re-
placement” in the “Maintenance and do-it-
yourself” section of this manual.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be regis-
tered and used with one vehicle. For information
about the purchase and use of additional Intelli-
gent Keys, it is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-7

Depress and hold the brake then push the push-
button ignition switch to the ON position before
driving. For additional information, refer to “Driv-
ing the vehicle” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
EXTENDING ENGINE 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 engine has
been running for 5 minutes, and 10 minutes
are added, the engine will run for a total of
15 minutes.
● Extending engine run time will count towards
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 be-
fore 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 engine 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.
● The ignition switch is pushed with an Intelli-
gent Key in the vehicle but the brake pedal is
not depressed.
CONDITIONS THE REMOTE START
WILL NOT WORK
The remote start will not operate if any of the
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 engine is still running. The engine must
be completely stopped. Wait at least 6 sec-
onds if the engine goes from running to off.
This is not applicable when extending en-
gine run time.
● The remote start button
is not pressed
and held for at least 2 seconds.
● The remote start button
is not pressed
and held within 5 seconds of pressing the
lock button.
● The brake is pressed.
● The doors are not closed and locked.
● The liftgate is open.
● The I–Key indicator message is displayed in
the vehicle information display.
3-20Pre-driving checks and adjustments

While positioned at the rear of the vehicle (cen-
ter) at arms’ length distance away, begin making
the forward kicking motion. Kick the foot under
the rear bumper then immediately return the foot
back to standing position. The kicking motion
should be straight, smooth and consistent. Your
leg does not need to touch the bumper surface
but be within 3/4 inch (2 cm) to 4 inches (10 cm)
of the bumper surface. After your kick motion is
completed step back to allow the liftgate to
open/close. The liftgate should begin moving
within 1–2 seconds after the kick. This time is
needed to verify the Intelligent Key and to validatethe kick motion. Kicking again within this time
frame (1–2 seconds) could cause the liftgate to
reverse or stop.
WARNING
Prevent unintentional liftgate
opening/closing. There may be conditions
when opening/closing the liftgate is not
desired. Keep the Intelligent Key out of
the range of the liftgate (3 ft or 1 m) , when
washing or working around the back of
the vehicle.
CAUTION
Interference or malfunction can be caused
by parking in close proximity to radio or
satellite towers.
