sors cannot detect every object such
as:
— Pedestrians, bicycles, animals or child operated toy vehicles
— A vehicle that is passing at speeds greater than approximately 15
MPH (24 km/h)

approaching vehicles in certain situa-
tions:
— Illustration a. When a vehicle parked next to you obstructs the
beam of the radar sensor.
— Illustration b. When the vehicle is parked in an angled parking space.
— Illustration c. When the vehicle is parked on inclined ground.
— Illustration d. When an approach- ing vehicle turns into your vehi-

vehicle ahead in the following condi-
tions:
— Snow or heavy rain — Dirt, ice, snow or other material
covering the radar sensor
— Interference by other radar sources
— Snow or road spray from travel- ling vehicles.
— Driving in a tunnel
— (Illustration B) When the vehicle ahead is being towed.
— (Illustration C) When the distance to the vehicle ahead is too close,
the beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
— (Illustration D) When driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with
sharp curves.
. The system is designed to automati-
cally check the sensor’s functionality,
within certain limitations. The system
may not detect some forms of ob-
struction of the sensor area such as
ice, snow, 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

If replacement is required, it is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of
the exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash.
A temperature difference between the inside
and the outside of the lens causes the fog.
This is not a malfunction. If large drops of
water collect inside the lens, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
