–When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is pres-
ent.
–When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when mirror is
folded.
–When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
–When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
•The MOD system might detect some-
thing like flowing water droplets on the
camera lens, white smoke from the muf-
fler, moving shadows, etc.
•The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
•If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered and the MOD sys-
tem may not detect objects properly.
•When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display ob-
jects clearly. This is not a malfunction.
MOD MALFUNCTION
The blue MOD icon will change to orange if
one of the following has occurred
•When the system is malfunctioning.
•When the component temperature
reaches a high level (icon will blink).
If the icon light continues to illuminate or-
ange, have the MOD system checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
•Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the cameras. This will cause discol-
oration. To clean the cameras, wipe with
a cloth dampened with diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry
cloth.
•Do not damage the cameras as the moni-
tor screen may be adversely affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of the
cameras
1, the MOD system may not oper-
ate properly. Clean the cameras by wiping
with a cloth dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wiping with a dry
cloth.

WARNING
•The heater and air conditioner operate
only when the engine is running.
•Never leave children or adults who
would normally require the support of
others alone in the vehicle. Pets should
not be left alone either. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or controls
and inadvertently become involved in a
serious accident and injure themselves.
On hot, sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly fatal
injuries to people or animals.
•Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
•Do not adjust the heating and air condi-
tioning controls while driving so that
full attention may be given to vehicle
operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when
the engine is running. The air blower will op-
erate even if the engine is turned off and the
ignition switch is in the ON position.NOTE
•Condensation forms inside the air condi-
tioning unit when the air conditioner (if
equipped) is running, and is safely dis-
charged underneath your vehicle.
Traces of water on the ground are there-
fore normal.
•Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the ventilators.
When parking, set the heater and air con-
ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
compartment. This should help reduce
odors inside the vehicle.
Observe the settings recommended on the
following pages. The windows could other-
wise mist up. To prevent the windows from
misting up
•Switch off climate control only briefly.
•Switch on air-recirculation mode only
briefly.
•Switch on the cooling with air dehumidifi-
cation function.
•Switch on the windshield demisting func-
tion briefly, if required.The air-conditioning system/automatic cli-
mate control regulates the temperature and
the humidity of the vehicle interior and filters
undesirable substances from the air.
The air-conditioning system/automatic cli-
mate control can only be operated when the
engine is running. Optimum operation is only
achieved with the side windows closed.
Always keep the ventilation flaps behind the
side panelling clear. Otherwise the vehicle will
not be ventilated correctly.
NOTE
•Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period
during warm weather. This will speed up
the cooling process and the desired inte-
rior temperature will be reached more
quickly.
•The integrated filter filters out most par-
ticles of dust and soot and completely fil-
ters out pollen. With automatic climate
control, gaseous pollutants and odors will
also be reduced. A clogged filter reduces
the amount of air supplied to the vehicle
interior. For this reason, you should al-
ways observe the interval for replacing
the filter, which is specified in the Service
Booklet. As this depends on environmen-
tal conditions, for example heavy air pol-
lution, the interval may be shorter than
stated in the Service Booklet.
