AROUND VIEW®MONITOR SYS-
TEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for Around View®Monitor. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
. Do not use the Around View
®Moni-
tor with the outside mirrors in the
stored position, and make sure that
the liftgate is securely closed when
operating the vehicle using the
Around View
®Monitor.
. The apparent distance between ob-
jects viewed on the Around View
®
Monitor differs from the actual dis-
tance.
. The cameras are installed on the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the vehicle that
covers the cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray
it around the cameras. Otherwise,
water may enter the camera unit causing water condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
. Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
. The screen displayed on the Around
View
®Monitor will automatically return
to the previous screen 3 minutes after
the CAMERA button has been pushed
while the shift lever is in a position other
than the R (Reverse) position.
. There may be a delay when switching
between views.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly.
. When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
. The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
. The colors of objects on the Around
View
®Monitor may differ somewhat
from the actual color of objects. .
Objects on the monitor may not be clear
and the color of the object may differ in a
dark environment.
. There may be differences in sharpness
between each camera view of the bird’s-
eye view.
. When activating the Around View
®
Monitor, the icons and the messages
may not be displayed for a while.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the Around View
®Monitor may
not display objects clearly. Clean the
camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth that has
been dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent, then wipe with a dry
cloth.

JVH0964X
There are some areas where the system will
not show objects and the system does not
warn of moving objects. When in the front or
the rear view display, an object below the
bumper or on the ground may not be viewed
. When in the bird’s-eye view, a tall object
near the seamof the camera viewing
areas will not appear in the monitor.
JVH1633X
System temporarily unavailable
When the “” icon is displayed on the
screen, there will be abnormal conditions in
the Around View
®Monitor. This will not
hinder normal driving operation but the
system should be inspected. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer.
JVH1634X
When the “” icon is displayed on the
screen, the camera image may be receiving
temporary electronic disturbances from sur-
rounding devices. This will not hinder normal
driving operation but the system should be
inspected. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
.Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,
wipe with a cloth dampened with
diluted mild cleaning agent and then
wipe with a dry cloth.
. Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of
the cameras
, the Around View®Monitor
may not display objects clearly. Clean the
camera by wiping with a cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent and then
wiping with a dry cloth.WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the sonar
function as outlined in this section could
result in serious injury or death.
. The sonar is a convenience feature. It
is not a substitute for proper parking.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
. Always look around and check that it
is safe to move before parking.
. Read and understand the limitations
of the sonar as contained in this
section.
The sonar function helps to inform the driver
of large stationary objects around the
vehicle when parking by issuing an audible
and visual alert.
CAMERA AIDING SONAR FUNCTION

4. SETTING button
SONAR SYSTEM OPERATION
The system gives the tone for front objects
when the shift lever is in the D (Drive)
position and both front and rear objects
when the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
When the camera image is shown on the
center display, the system shows the sonar
indicator regardless of the shift lever posi-
tion.
The system is deactivated at speeds above 6
MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front, front-wide,
rear and rear-wide views indicate different
distances to the object.
When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of the
blinking and the rate of the tone increase.
When the vehicle is very close to the object,
the indicator stops blinking and turns red,
and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3
seconds when an object is detected by only
the sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no

TURNING ON AND OFF THE SO-
NAR FUNCTION
When the Sonar/MOD keyis selected, the
indicatorwill turn off and the sonar will be
turned off temporarily. The Moving Object
Detection (MOD) system will also be turned
off at the same time. (See “Moving Object
Detection (MOD)” (P.4-20).) When the key
is selected again, the indicatorwill turn
on and the sonar will turn back on.
In the below cases, the sonar will be turned
back on automatically:
. When the shift lever is placed in the R
(Reverse) position. .
When the CAMERA button is pushed
and a screen other than the camera view
is shown on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
To deactivate the sonar system completely,
use the “Sonar” settings. See “Sonar function
settings” (P.4-19).

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 system, including
reduced performance or a false acti-
vation.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle.
. The system is not designed to pre-
vent contact with small or moving
objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bum-
per 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 measure-
ment of objects or false alarms.

CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
“Sonar” settings (the setting items are
grayed out), the sonar system may be
malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of snow,
ice and dirt. Do not scratch the surface
of the sonar sensors when cleaning. If
the sensors are covered, the accuracy of
the sonar function will be diminished.JVH1689X
