signal, then the system chimes (twice) and
the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
. The radar sensors may not detect vehi-
cles which are approaching rapidly from
behind.
. 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.

and the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
. When overtaking several vehicles in a
row, the vehicles after the first vehicle
may not be detected if they are travel-
ing close together.
. The radar sensors may not detect slower
moving vehicles if they are passed
quickly.
. 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.

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.

BSW system warning light (orange)
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the system
will be turned off automatically, a beep will
sound and the BSW system warning light
(orange)
will blink. The system is not
available until the conditions 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 radar
sensors.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
If the BSW system warning light (orange)
continues to blink, have the system checked.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a beep will sound
and the BSW system warning light (orange)
will illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the
engine off and restart the engine.
If the BSW system warning light continues
to illuminate, have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor the BSW
system are located near the rear bumper.
Always keep the area near the radar sensors
clean.
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 radar sensors.
Check for and remove objects obstructing
the area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including transparent
material), install accessories or apply addi- tional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around the
radar sensors.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer if the area around the radar sensors
is damaged due to a collision.

BSI SYSTEM OPERATION
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light
illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, the
system chimes (twice) and the side indicator
light flashes. The side indicator light con-
tinues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
If the BSI system is ON and your vehicle
approaches a lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, the system
chimes (three times) and the side indicator
light flashes. Then the BSI system slightly
applies the brakes to help return the vehicle
back to the center of the driving lane. The
BSI system operates regardless of turn
signal usage.
NOTE:
.Warning and system application of the
brakes will only be activated if the side
indicator light is already illuminated
when your vehicle approaches a lane
marker. If another vehicle comes into
the detection zone after your vehicle has
crossed a lane marker, no warning or
system application of the brakes will be
activated. (See “BSI driving situations”

(P.5-47).)
. The BSI system is typically activated
earlier than the Lane Departure Preven-
tion (LDP) system when your vehicle is
approaching a lane marker.

TURNING THE BSI SYSTEM ON/
OFF
To turn on the BSI system, push the dynamic
driver assistance switchon the steering
wheel after starting the engine. The BSI ON
indicator light (green)
on the instrumental
panel will illuminate.
Push the dynamic driver assistance switch
again to turn off the BSI system. The BSI ON
indicator light (green)will turn off.
The dynamic driver assistance switch
is
used for the BSI, Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) and Distance Control Assist (DCA)
systems. When the dynamic driver assis-
tance switch
is pushed, the LDP and DCA
systems will also turn on or off simulta-
neously. The BSI system can be individually
set to on or off on the center display.
If the system is set to off, the system will not
turn on even if the dynamic driver assistance
switch
is pushed to on. To set the system
to on or off on the center display, see “How
to enable/disable the BSI system” (P.5-45).
