SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the sonar function. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ Inclement weather or ultrasonic sources such as an automatic car wash, a truck’s
compressed-air brakes or a pneumatic
drill may affect the function of the sys-
tem, including reduced performance or a
false activation.
∙ The system is not designed to prevent contact with small or moving objects.
∙ The system will not detect small objects below the bumper, and may not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground. ∙ The system may not detect the following
objects:
– Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
∙ If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system vol-
ume or an open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the tone and it may not be heard.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at the
corners of the vehicle icon and the function
cannot be activated from the Camera setting
menu (the setting items are grayed out), the

OPERATING TIPS
The sunload sensor, located on the top driv-
er’s side of the instrument panel, helps the
system maintain a constant temperature. Do
not put anything on or around this sensor.∙ When the climate system is in automatic
operation and the engine coolant tem-
perature and outside air temperature are
low, the air flow outlet may default to
defroster mode for a maximum of 2 min-
utes 30 seconds. This is not a malfunc-
tion. After the engine coolant tempera-
ture warms up, the air flow outlet will
return to foot mode and operation will
continue normally.
∙ When the outside and interior cabin tem- peratures are moderate to high, the in-
take setting may default to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. You may notice
air flow from the foot mode vent outlets
for a maximum of 15 seconds. This is not
a malfunction. After the initial warm air is
expelled, the intake will return to auto-
matic control, air flow outlet will return to
previous settings, and operation will con-
tinue normally. To exit, press any climate
control button.
∙ Keep the moonroof (if so equipped) closed while the air conditioner is in op-
eration. ∙ If you feel that the air flow mode you
have selected and the outlets the air is
coming out do not match, select the
mode.
∙ When you change the air flow mode, you may feel air flow from the feet vents for
just a moment. This is not a malfunction.

the A/C indicator is ON, press the soft-
touch A/C button to turn A/C OFF.
3. Press the temperature control button to set the desired temperature.
∙ The temperature of the passenger com- partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution and fan speed
are also controlled automatically.
∙ Do not set the temperature lower than the outside air temperature or the system
may not work properly.
∙ This procedure is not recommended if windows fog up.
When the outside temperature decreases to
approximately 32°F (0°C), the A/C function
does not activate even if the “A/C” indicator
light illuminates.
Dual control mode setting
Press the DUAL button on the control panel
to activate dual climate control functions.
Or, you can individually set the driver and
front passenger side temperature using each
temperature control button. 1. Press the CLIMATE button. 2. By touching the “DUAL” key, or when the
passenger side temperature control but-
ton or manual air control button is
pressed, the “DUAL” indicator on the
screen will illuminate.
3. To turn off the passenger side tempera- ture control, touch the “DUAL” key and
the “DUAL” indicator will turn off.
∙ The Dual control mode cannot be acti- vated when the air conditioner is in the
front defrosting mode.
Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) (if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) keeps the air inside of the vehicle
clean, using the ion control and the automatic
air intake control with exhaust gas detecting
sensor.

Ion control (if so equipped)
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster® ions into the air blown from the
vents and reduces odor absorbed into the
interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster® ions auto-
matically.The amount of Plasmacluster® ions in-
creases according to the amount of air flow.
When the air flow is high,
is displayed
on the screen and when the air flow is low,
the indication in the screen changes to

registered trademarks of Sharp Corporation.
Exhaust gas/outside odor detection sensor
(if so equipped)
This vehicle may be equipped with an exhaust
gas detection sensor. When the automatic
intake air control is ON, the sensor detects
industry odors such as pulp or chemicals, and
exhaust gas such as gasoline or diesel. When
such odors or gas are detected, the system
automatically changes from the outside air
circulation mode to the recirculation mode.
When the intake air control button is pressed
under the following conditions, the indicator
light on the
button will illuminate and
the exhaust gas detection sensor will turn on.
∙ The air flow control is not in the front defroster mode (the indicator light on
the
front defroster button is turned
off).
∙ The outside temperature is about 32°F (0°C) or more. When the automatic intake air control is ON,
for the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode
is selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen
from entering the vehicle and cleans the air
inside of the vehicle with positive and nega-
tive ions that are emitted from the vent.
After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects ex-
haust gas and automatically alternates be-
tween the recirculation mode and outside air
circulation mode.

∙ If the low tire pressure warning light illu-minates while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage
the tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and
could result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label to
turn the low tire pressure warning light
off. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire as soon as possible. (For addi-
tional information, refer to “Flat tire” in
the “In case of emergency” section for
changing a flat tire.) ∙ When replacing a wheel without TPMS
such as the spare tire, when a spare tire is
mounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pres-
sure will not be indicated, the TPMS will
not function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for approximately
1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Have your tires replaced
and/or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
∙ Replacing tires with those not originally specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
∙ Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire sealant into the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION
∙ The TPMS may not function properlywhen the wheels are equipped with tire
chains or the wheels are buried in snow.
∙ Do not place metalized film or any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows.
This may cause poor reception of the sig-
nals from the tire pressure sensors, and
the TPMS will not function properly. Some devices and transmitters may tempo-
rarily interfere with the operation of the
TPMS and cause the low tire pressure warn-
ing light to illuminate.
Some examples are:
∙ Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
∙ If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
∙ If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
The low tire pressure warning light may illu-
minate in the following cases: ∙ If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and tire without TPMS.
∙ If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID has not been registered.
∙ If the wheel is not originally specified by INFINITI.

TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the
TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator provides
visual and audible signals outside the vehicle
to help you inflate the tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure.Vehicle set-up:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe and level place.
2. Apply the parking brake and place the shift lever in the P (Park) position.
3. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion. Do not start the engine.
Operation: 1. Add air to the tire.
2. After a few seconds, the hazard indica- tors will start flashing.
3. When the designated pressure is reached, the horn beeps once and the
hazard indicators stop flashing.
4. Perform the above steps for each tire. ∙ If the tire is over-inflated more thanapproximately 4 psi (30 kPa), the horn
beeps and the hazard indicators flash
three times. To correct the pressure,
push the core of the valve stem on the
tire briefly to release pressure. When
the pressure reaches the designated
pressure, the horn beeps once.
∙ If the hazard indicator does not flash within approximately 15 seconds after
starting to inflate the tire, it indicates
that the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indi- cator is not operating.
∙ The TPMS will not activate the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator under the
following conditions:
– If there is interference from an exter- nal device or transmitter.
– The air pressure from the inflation de- vice is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
– There is a malfunction in the TPMS system.
– There is a malfunction in the horn or hazard indicators.
– The identification code of the tire pressure sensor is not registered to
the system.
– The battery of the tire pressure sensor is low.
∙ If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indica- tor does not operate due to TPMS
interference, move the vehicle about
3 ft (1 m) backward or forward and try
again.
If the TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator is
not working, use a tire pressure gauge.
