WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the LDW system
could result in serious personal injury or
death. The LDW system will not steer the
vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
The LDW system warns the driver with a
warning light and intermittent steering vibra-
tion that the vehicle is beginning to leave the
traveling lane. The LDW system uses a camera
1installed
behind the windshield to monitor the lane
markers of your traveling lane.

LDW SYSTEM OPERATION
1Steering wheel mounted controls
2Vehicle information display
ADisplay area
BMenu barThe LDW system operates at speeds of ap-
proximately 40 MPH (60 km/h) and above,
when the lane markings are clear.
If the system detects that the vehicle's front
wheel has passed over the lane marking, a
warning will be provided. It will warn you by
means of intermittent vibration through the
steering wheel for up to 1.5 seconds and a
visual alert.
NOTE
The LDW system is designed not to warn
when you operate the lane change signal and
change traveling lanes in the direction of the
signal.
No warning vibration occurs if you activate
the turn signals. In this event, the warnings
are suppressed for a certain period of time.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unit1for the LDW system
is located above the inside mirror.
To ensure the proper operation of the LDW
system and prevent a system malfunction, be
sure to observe the following:
•Always keep the windshield clean.
•Do not attach a sticker (including transpar-
ent material) or install an accessory near
the camera unit.
•Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability
of detecting the lane markers.
•Do not strike or damage the areas around
the camera unit. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove parts from the camera unit.
If the camera unit is damaged due to an
accident, it is recommended you contact
an INFINITI retailer.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the BSW system
could result in serious injury or death.
•The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
is not a replacement for proper driving
procedure and is not designed to pre-
vent contact with vehicles or objects.
When changing lanes, always use the
side and rear mirrors and turn and look in
the direction you will move to ensure it is
safe to change lanes. Never rely solely
on the BSW system.
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system can
help alert the driver of other vehicles in adja-
cent lanes when changing lanes.

BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW)
SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
5-36Starting and driving

Illustration 2:If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice) and the
BSW indicator light flashes. The BSW indica-
tor light continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
NOTE
•The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a
few seconds when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
•The brightness of the BSW indicator lights
is adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.
•If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal,
then only the BSW indicator light flashes
and no chime sounds. (See "Another ve-
hicle approaching from behind" later in this
section.)
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver ac-
tivates the turn signal.
WARNING
•Do not use the BSW system when tow-
ing a trailer because the system may not
function properly.
•Excessive noise (for example audio sys-
tem volume, open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
•The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when certain
objects are present such as: – Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
– Several types of vehicles such as mo-
torcycles
– Oncoming vehicles
– Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop. –
A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind.
– A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly.
•Severe weather or road spray conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles.
•The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an
adjacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
•The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects, however ob-
jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage
and parked vehicles may occasionally be
detected. This is a normal operating
condition.
