2019 INFINITI QX50 brake light

To reset at a slower cruising speed,use one
of the following methods:
∙ Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET– switch and release it.
∙ Push and hold the SET– switch. The set vehicle speed will decrease by approxi-
mately 5 mph (5 km/h).
∙ Push, then quickly release the SET– switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will decrease by approximately
1 mph (1 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the RES+ switch. The vehicle will re-
sume the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 20 mph (32 km/h).
How to change the set distance to
the vehicle ahead
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be
selected at any time depending on the traffic
conditions.
Each time the distance
switchAis
pushed, the set distance will change to long,
middle, short and back to long again, in that
sequence.
Distance Approximate distance at
60 mph (100 km/h) [ft (m)]
1. Long 200 (60)
2. Middle 150 (45)
3. Short 100 (30)
∙ The distance to the vehicle ahead will change according to the vehicle speed.
The higher the vehicle speed, the longer
the distance.
∙ If the engine is stopped, the set distance becomes “long.” (Each time the engine is
started, the initial setting becomes
“long.”)

LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the ICC system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The ICC system is primarily intended foruse on straight, dry, open roads with light
traffic. It is not advisable to use the ICC
system in city traffic or congested areas.
∙ The ICC system will not adapt automati- cally to road conditions. This system
should be used in evenly flowing traffic.
Do not use the system on roads with
sharp curves, or on icy roads, in heavy
rain or in fog. ∙ As there is a performance limit to the dis-
tance control function, never rely solely
on the ICC system. This system does not
correct careless, inattentive or absent-
minded driving, or overcome poor visibil-
ity in rain, fog, or other bad weather. De-
celerate the vehicle speed by depressing
the brake pedal, depending on the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead and the sur-
rounding circumstances in order to main-
tain a safe distance between vehicles.
∙ If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the limitations of the system. The system
will cancel once it judges that the vehicle
has come to a standstill and sound a
warning chime. To prevent the vehicle
from moving, the driver must depress the
brake pedal.
∙ Always pay attention to the operation of the vehicle and be ready to manually con-
trol the proper following distance. The
ICC system may not be able to maintain
the selected distance between vehicles
(following distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances. ∙ The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather
conditions. To avoid accidents, never use
the ICC system under the following
conditions:
– On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the bumper around the distance sensor
– On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set vehicle speed
and frequent braking may result in
overheating the brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads
– When traffic conditions make it diffi- cult to keep a proper distance be-
tween vehicles because of frequent
acceleration or deceleration
– Interference by other radar sources
∙ Do not use the ICC system if you are tow- ing a trailer. The system may not detect a
vehicle ahead.

the RES+ switch. The vehicle will resume the
last set cruising speed when the vehicle speed
is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
5-106Starting and driving

Vehicle detected ahead
When a vehicle is detected in the lane ahead,
the ICC system decelerates the vehicle by
controlling the throttle and applying the
brakes to match the speed of a slower vehicle
ahead. The ICC system then controls the ve-
hicle speed based on the speed of the vehicle
ahead to maintain the driver selected dis-
tance.
NOTE:∙ The stop lights of the vehicle come on
when braking is performed by the ICC
system. ∙
When the brake is applied by the system,
a noise may be heard. This is not a mal-
function.
When the ICC system detects a vehicle
ahead, the vehicle ahead detection indicator
and the speed control status indicator (dis-
tance control mode) illuminates (solid
green
).
Vehicle ahead stops
When the vehicle ahead decelerates to stop,
your vehicle decelerates to a standstill within
the system capability. Once your vehicle
stops, the ICC system automatically applies
the brakes to keep the vehicle stopped. When
your vehicle is at a standstill, the “(RES+)
Press to start” message is displayed on the
vehicle information display.
NOTE:
When your vehicle stops for less than 3 sec-
onds, your vehicle will automatically follow
the vehicle as it accelerates from a stop.
Vehicle ahead accelerates
When your vehicle is stopped and the vehicle
ahead begins to accelerate, push the RES+
switch or lightly depress the accelerator
pedal. The ICC system starts to follow the
vehicle ahead. Vehicle ahead not detected
When a vehicle is no longer detected ahead,
the ICC system gradually accelerates your
vehicle to resume the previously set vehicle
speed. The ICC system then maintains the set
speed.
When a vehicle is no longer detected, the
vehicle ahead detection indicator turns off
and speed control status indicator (maintain
speed control mode) illuminates (green
outline
).
The ICC system gradually accelerates to the
set speed, but you can depress the accelera-
tor pedal to quickly accelerate. When a ve-
hicle is no longer detected and your vehicle is
traveling under approximately 15 mph
(24 km/h), the ICC system automatically can-
cels.
