2018 INFINITI QX30 steering wheel

Active light function
The active light function is a system that
moves the headlights according to the steer-
ing movements of the front wheels. In this
way relevant areas remain illuminated while
you are driving. This helps you to recognize
pedestrians, cyclists and animals. It is active
when the lights are switched on.
Cornering light function
The cornering light function improves the il-
lumination of the road over a wide angle in
the direction you are turning, enabling better
visibility in tight bends, for example. It can
only be activated when the low-beam head-
lights are switched on. It is active if you are
driving at speeds below 25 MPH (40 km/h)
and switch on the turn signal or turn the
steering wheel.
The cornering light function may remain lit for
a short time, but is automatically switched off
after no longer than three minutes.
Freeway mode
Freeway mode adjusts the light beam to re-
duce the amount of light that shines on the
opposite lane of the freeway, and oncoming
traffic.
Freeway mode is active if you are driving at a
speed above 68 MPH (110 km/h) and do not
make any large steering movements for at
least 3300 ft (1000 m) or if you are driving at
a speed above 81 MPH (130 km/h).
It is not active if you are driving at speeds
below 50 MPH (80 km/h) following activa-
tion.

•Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
•Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious in-
jury or death when filling portable fuel
containers:
–Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
–Do not use electronic devices when
filling.
–Keep the pump nozzle in contact with
the container while you are filling it.
–Use only approved portable fuel con-
tainers for flammable liquid.

force. If you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out of po-
sition in any way, you are at greater risk
of injury or death in a crash. You may
also receive serious or fatal injuries from
the air bag if you are up against it when
it inflates. Always sit back against the
seatback and as far away as practical
from the steering wheel. Always use the
seat belts.Release the lock lever
1as illustrated and
adjust the steering wheel to the desired posi-
tion (up or down

Predicted course lines6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted 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 predicted 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 predicted course lines are wider than
the actual width and course.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines 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 guidelines (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 position-
ing of objects behind the vehicle.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
viewed in the monitor farther than it appears.
Backing up on a steep downhill
When backing up the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown farther than the actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
viewed in the monitor closer than it appears.

WARNING
•If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course line may
not be displayed correctly.
•On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
•The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rear view
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
•If the battery is disconnected or be-
comes discharged, the predicted course
lines may be displayed incorrectly. If this
occurs, please perform the following
procedures:
–Turn the steering wheel from lock to
