2018 INFINITI Q60 COUPE service indicator

4M(4th), 3M(3rd) and 2M(2nd):
Use these positions for hill climbing or engine
braking on downhill grades.
1
M(1st):
Use this position when climbing steep hills
slowly or driving slowly through deep snow,
or for maximum engine braking on steep
downhill grades.
.Remember not to drive at high speeds for
extended periods of time in lower than
7th gear. This reduces fuel economy.
.Moving the shift lever rapidly to the same
side twice will shift the ranges in succes-
sion.
.In the manual shift mode, the transmis-
sion may not shift to the selected gear
or may automatically shift to the other
gear. This helps maintain driving per-
formance and reduces the chance of
vehicle damage or loss of control.
.When the transmission does not shift to
the selected gear, the Automatic Trans-
mission (AT) position indicator (in the
vehicle information display) will blink
and the buzzer will sound.
.In the manual shift mode, the transmis-
sion automatically shifts down to 1st
gear before the vehicle comes to a stop.
When accelerating again, it is necessary
to shift up to the desired range.
Accelerator downshift — In D (Drive)
position —
For passing or hill climbing, fully depress the
accelerator pedal to the floor. This shifts the
transmission down into the lower gear,
depending on the vehicle speed.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, note
that the transmission will be locked in any of
the forward gears according to the condi-
tion.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme
conditions, such as excessive wheel spinning
and subsequent hard braking, the fail-safe
system may be activated. This will occur
even if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, push the ignition
switch to the OFF position and wait for 3
seconds. Then push the ignition switch back
to the ON position. The vehicle should
return to its normal operating condition. If
it does not return to its normal operating
condition, have the transmission checked
and repaired, if necessary. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.

ing procedure:
1. Push the ignition switch to the OFF or
LOCK position.
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Remove the shift lock cover
using a
suitable tool.
4. Push down the shift lock

Illustration 6: If the driver activates the turn
signal, then the system chimes (twice) and
the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
.The radar sensors may not detect a
vehicle which is traveling at about the
same speed as your vehicle when it
enters the detection zone.
.If the driver activates the turn signal
before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when the other
vehicle is detected.

When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
chime will sound and the “side radar ob-
struction” warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display
.
The system is not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog. The blocked
condition may also be caused by objects
such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radarsensors.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
If the “side radar obstruction” warning
message continues to appear, have the
system checked. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSW system malfunctions, it will
be turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, and the system “malfunction” warn-
ing message with the driver assist system
blind spot indicator (orange) will appear in

Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location and place
the shift lever in the P (Park) position. Turn
the engine off and restart the engine. If the
