HOW TO READ DISPLAYED
LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with refer-
ence to the bumper line
are displayed on
the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. Red line
: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines

Indicate the approximate vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines
:
Indicate the predictive course when backing
up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shift
lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the
steering wheel is turned. The predictive
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering wheel is turned and will
not be displayed while the steering wheel is
in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width
of the predictive course lines are wider than
the actual width and course.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRE-
DICTIVE AND ACTUAL DIS-
TANCES
The displayed guide lines and their locations
on the ground are for approximate reference
only. Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces
or projecting objects will be actually located
at distances different from those displayed
in the monitor relative to the guide lines
(refer to illustrations). When in doubt, turn
around and view the objects as you are
backing up, or park and exit the vehicle to
view the positioning of objects behind the
vehicle.

CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning
dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The Around View
®Monitor system is de-
signed as an aid to the driver in situations
such as slot parking or parallel parking.

Bird’s-eye view:
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead
view of the vehicle, which helps confirm the
vehicle position and the predictive course to
a parking space.
The vehicle icon
shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the size of the vehicle icon
on the bird’s-eye view may differ somewhat
from the actual distance to the vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
are indicated in black.

WARNING
.Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. They
could accidentally injure themselves
or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
. Closely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them from
playing and becoming locked in the
trunk where they could be seriously
injured. Keep the car locked, with the
rear seatback and trunk lid securely
latched when not in use, and prevent
children’s access to car keys.
. Do not attempt to test the vehicle on
a dynamometer (such as the dynam-
ometers used by some states for
emissions testing), or similar equip-
ment. Doing so may cause damage to
the drivetrain or the high voltage
battery. Make sure you inform test
facility personnel that your vehicle is
hybrid. Using the wrong test equip- ment may result in drivetrain damage
or unexpected vehicle movement
which could result in serious vehicle
damage or pearsonal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
.
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dan-
gerous. It can cause unconsciousness
or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all
windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
. Do not run the engine in closed spaces
such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
ignition switch in the ON position
and the INFINITI Direct Response
Hybrid
®System in the READY to
drive mode for any extended length
of time.
. Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for any extended
length of time. .
Keep the trunk lid closed while driv-
ing, otherwise exhaust gases could be
drawn into the passenger compart-
ment. If you must drive with the
trunk lid open, follow these precau-
tions:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Set the
air recirculation to
off and the fan control to high to
circulate the air.
. If electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the trunk lid or
the body, follow the manufacturer’s
recommendation to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle.
. The exhaust system and body should
be inspected by a qualified mechanic
whenever:
— The vehicle is raised for service.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the passenger
compartment.
— You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident invol- ving damage to the exhaust sys-
tem, underbody, or rear of the
vehicle.
