2018 INFINITI QX60 display

If the radar detects an approaching vehicle
from the side, the system chimes a sound
(single beep), the Blind Spot Warning indica-
tor light on the side of the approaching ve-
hicle flashes and a yellow rectangular frame
appears in the display
A.NOTE:
∙ In the case of several vehicles approach-
ing in a row (Illustration 1) or in the op-
posite direction (Illustration 2), a chime
may not be sounded by the BCI system
after the first vehicle passes the sensors. ∙
The sonar system chime indicating there is
an object behind the vehicle has a higher
priority than the BCI chime (single beep)
indicating an approaching vehicle. If the
sonar system detects an object behind the
vehicle and the BCI system detects an ap-
proaching vehicle at the same time the fol-
lowing indicators are provided:
–
The sonar system chime sounds
– The Blind Spot Warning indicator
light on the side of the approaching
vehicle flashes and

–A yellow rectangular frame appears
in the display
If an approaching vehicle or object behind the
vehicle is detected when your vehicle is back-
ing up, a red frame will appear in the display
Aand the system will chime three times.
Then, the brakes will be applied momentarily.
After the automatic brake application, the
driver must depress the brake pedal to main-
tain brake pressure.
If the driver’s foot is on the accelerator pedal,
the system moves the accelerator pedal up-
ward before the braking is applied. However,
if you continue to accelerate, the system will
not engage the brakes. The system does not operate if the object is
very close to the bumper.

TURNING THE BCI SYSTEM
ON/OFF
The BCI system automatically turns on every
time the engine is started.
The BCI system can be turned off temporarily
by pushing the BCI switch. The BCI OFF
message appears on the vehicle information
display. When the shift lever is placed in the R
(Reverse) position again the BCI system is
turned on.
Perform the following steps to enable or dis-
able the BCI system.1. Press the
button until “Settings”
displays in the vehicle information dis-
play. Use the
to select “Driver As-
sistance.” Then press the ENTER button.
2. Select “Back-up Collision Interv.”, and press the ENTER button.
3. Select “Ignition On Status” and press ENTER.

ing lot aisle.
– Illustration e: When the angle formed by your vehicle and approaching ve-
hicle is small.
∙ The following conditions may reduce the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/dirt build up on the vehicle
∙ Do not attach stickers (including trans- parent material), install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar sen-
sors. These conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
∙ The sonar sensors detect stationary ob- jects behind the vehicle. The sonar sensor
may not detect:
– Small or moving objects
– Wedge-shaped objects
– Objects close to the bumper (less than approximately 1 ft [30 cm]) – Thin objects such as rope, wire and
chain, etc.
∙ The brake engagement by the BCI system is not as effective on a slope as it is on flat
ground. When on a steep slope the sys-
tem may not function properly.
∙ Do not use the BCI system under the fol- lowing conditions because the system
may not function properly:
– When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire conditions (e.g. tire
wear, low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, non-standard
wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
∙ Do not use the BCI system when towing a trailer.
∙ Excessive noise (e.g. audio system vol- ume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.SYSTEM TEMPORARILY NOT
AVAILABLE
If the following messages appear on the ve-
hicle information display, a chime will sound
and the BCI system will be turned off auto-
matically:
∙ “Unavailable: High Accelerator Temp.”: If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately 104°F [40°C]) and then
started, the BCI system may be deacti-
vated automatically and the “Unavailable:
High Accelerator Temp” message will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display for
a period of time.
When the interior temperature is re-
duced, turn off the BCI system and turn it
on again.
∙ “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”: When side radar blockage is detected.
When the blockage is removed, turn off
the BCI system and turn it on again.

mation, refer to “Warning systems switch” in
the “Instruments and controls” section of this
manual.
Perform the following steps to enable or dis-
able the RCTA system.1. Press the
button until “Settings”
displays in the vehicle information dis-
play. Use the

NOTE:∙ The RCTA system is integrated into the
BSW system. There is not a separate se-
lection in the vehicle information display
for the RCTA system. When the BSW is
disabled, the RCTA system is also dis-
abled.
∙ When enabling/disabling the system,
the system setting will be retained even
if the engine is restarted.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the system
will be deactivated automatically. The “Un-
available: Side Radar Obstruction” warning
message will appear and the BSW/RCTA in-
dicator (white) will blink
Ain the vehicle in-
formation display.
The systems are not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary 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.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
Malfunction
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it will
turn off automatically. The system malfunc-
tion warning message with the BSW/RCTA
indicator (orange) will appear in the vehicle
information display.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system (if so equipped) will also stop work-
ing.
Action to take
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the mes-
sage continues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensors1for the BSW and
RCTA systems are located near the rear
bumper. Always keep the area near the radar
sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary 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.
