2019 INFINITI QX50 ANC

– A sudden change in brightness occurs.(For example, when the vehicle enters
or exits a tunnel or a shaded area or
lightning flashes.)
– The poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having clothing
color or pattern which is similar to the
background.
– The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable due to the
pedestrian transporting luggage,
wearing bulky or very loose-fitting
clothing or accessories.
∙ The system performance may degrade in the following conditions:
– The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
– The vehicle is driven on a slope.
– Excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the trunk room of
your vehicle. ∙ The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s (radar and camera)
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect blockage of
sensor areas covered by ice, snow or
stickers, for example. In these cases, the
system may not be able to warn the
driver properly. Be sure that you check,
clean and clear sensor areas regularly.
∙ In some road and traffic conditions, the FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, depress
the accelerator pedal to override the
system.
∙ Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime may
not be heard.
5-154Starting and driving

When driving on some roads, such as wind-
ing, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads
which are under construction, the sensor may
detect vehicles in a different lane, or may
temporarily not detect a vehicle traveling
ahead. This may cause the system to work
inappropriately.The detection of vehicles may also be af-
fected by vehicle operating (steering maneu-
ver or traveling position in the lane, etc.) or
vehicle condition. If this occurs, the system
may warn you by blinking the system indica-
tor and sounding the chime unexpectedly.
You will have to manually control the proper
distance away from the vehicle traveling
ahead.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensorAis located on the front of
the vehicle. The camera
Bis located on the
upper side of the windshield.
To keep the FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system operating properly, be sure to ob-
serve the following:
∙ Always keep sensor areas of the front bumper and windshield clean.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensors (ex. Bumper, windshield). ∙ Do not cover or attach stickers, or install
any accessory near the sensors. This
could block sensor signals, and/or cause
failure or malfunction.
∙ Do not attach metallic objects near the radar sensor (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
∙ 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 detection
capability.
∙ Do not alter, remove or paint the front bumper. Before customizing or restoring
the front bumper, it is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer.Radio frequency statement

FCC Notice
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to oper-
ate the equipment.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the PFCW system
could result in serious injury or death.
∙ The PFCW system can help warn thedriver before a collision occurs but will
not avoid a collision. It is the driver’s re-
sponsibility to stay alert, drive safely and
be in control of the vehicle at all times.
The PFCW system can help alert the driver
when there is a sudden braking of a second
vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle ahead
in the same lane. The PFCW system uses a radar sensor
A
located on the front of the vehicle to measure
the distance to the vehicle ahead in the same
lane.

TURNING THE PFCW SYSTEM
ON/OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the
PFCW system on or off.1. Press the MENU button below the lower display screen.
2. Select “Driver Assistance.”
3. Select “Emergency Assist.”
4. Select “ON” to turn the “Forward emer- gency braking” system on or off.
When the PFCW system is turned off, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system warn-
ing light illuminates.
NOTE: ∙ The PFCW system will be automatically
turned on when the engine is restarted.
∙ The PFCW system (if so equipped) is in-
tegrated into the FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system. There is not a sepa-
rate selection in the lower display for the
PFCW system. When the FEB with Pe-
destrian Detection is turned off, the
PFCW system is also turned off.

PFCW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the PFCW system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The PFCW system cannot detect all ve-hicles under all conditions.
∙ The radar sensor does not detect the fol- lowing objects: – Pedestrians, animals or obstacles in
the roadway
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
∙ (Illustration A) The PFCW system does not function when a vehicle ahead is a
narrow vehicle, such as a motorcycle.
∙ The radar sensor may not detect a vehicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Snow or heavy rain. – Dirt, ice, snow or other material cov-
ering the radar sensor.
– Interference by other radar sources.
– Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles.
– Driving in a tunnel.
– (Illustration B) When the vehicle ahead is being towed.
Illustration B

5-164Starting and driving

– (Illustration C) When the distance tothe vehicle ahead is too close, the
beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
– (Illustration D) When driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with
sharp curves.
∙ The system is designed to automatically check the sensor’s functionality, within
certain limitations. The system may not
detect some forms of obstruction of the
sensor area such as ice, snow, stickers,
etc. In these cases, the system may not be
able to warn the driver properly. Be sure
that you check, clean and clear the sensor
area regularly.
∙ Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the chime may
not be heard.

Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop
the vehicle in a safe place, press the Park
button to place the vehicle in the P (Park)
position and turn the engine off. Clean the
radar cover on the lower grille with a soft
cloth, and restart the engine. If the warning
light continues to illuminate, have the PFCW
system checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.∙ When driving on roads with limited road structures or buildings (for example, long
bridges, deserts, snow fields, driving next
to long walls).
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist
the PFCW system will resume automatically
NOTE:
If the FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
stops working, the PFCW system (if so
equipped) will also stop working.SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the PFCW system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will sound,
the FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
warning light (orange) will illuminate and the
warning message [Malfunction] will appear
in the vehicle information display.
Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop
the vehicle in a safe location, turn the engine
off and restart the engine. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the PFCW sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensorAis located on the front of the
vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly, be
sure to observe the following:
∙ Always keep the sensor area of the front bumper clean.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensor.
∙ Do not cover or attach stickers or similar objects on the front bumper near the sen-
sor area. This could cause failure or mal-
function.
