CHECKING LIGHTS
With all doors closed, apply the parking
brake, fasten the seat belts and place the
ignition switch in the ON position without
starting the engine. The following lights (if
so equipped) will come on:
,or,,,
The following lights (if so equipped) will
come on briefly and then go off:
,or,,,,
If any light does not come on or operates in a
way other than described, it may indicate a
burned-out bulb and/or a system malfunc-tion. It is recommended you have the system
checked by an INFINITI retailer.
Some indicators and warnings are also
displayed in the vehicle information display
between the speedometer and tachometer.
(See “Vehicle information display” (P.2-20).)
WARNING LIGHTS
orAnti-lock Braking
System (ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminates and then
turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS

you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock
assistance. (See “Brake system” (P.5-126).)
orBrake warning light
This light functions for both the parking
brake and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light comes on when the
parking brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid
level. If the light comes on while the engine is
running with the parking brake not applied,
stop the vehicle and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake fluidis necessary, add fluid and have the
system checked. It is recommended you
have this service performed by an
INFINITI retailer. (See “Brake fluid”
(P.8-9).)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recom-
mended you have this service performed
by an INFINITI retailer. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the
brake warning light and the Anti-lock Brak-
ing System (ABS) warning light illuminate, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the brake system checked,
and if necessary repaired. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
(See “Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warn-
ing light” (P.2-12).)
WARNING
.
Your brake system may not be work-
ing properly if the warning light is on.
Driving could be dangerous. If you
judge it to be safe, drive carefully to
the nearest service station for re-
pairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle
towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stopping
distance and braking will require
greater pedal effort as well as pedal
travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging system
is not functioning properly. Turn the engine
off and check the alternator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken, missing or if the light remains
on, have your vehicle serviced immediately. It
is recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Forward Emergency Braking
(FEB) system warning light (if so
equipped)
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is placed in the ON position. It turns off after
the engine is started.

(P.2-47).)
. [A/C]
Touch to turn the air conditioner on/off.
(See “Automatic operation (AUTO)”
(P.4-36).)
. [Auto Recirc] (if so equipped)
Touch to turn the auto-recirculation
mode on/off. (See “Advanced Climate
Control System” (P.4-39).)
. [
]or[] (if so equipped)
Touch to turn the seat heater on/off.
(See “Heated seats” (P.2-45).)
DUAL mode setting
Touch [DUAL] to turn on/off the DUAL
mode. When the DUAL mode is set, the
temperature for the driver seat and the front
passenger seat can be adjusted indepen-
dently. When the DUAL mode is on, the
indicator light is on and “DUAL” appears.
Advanced Climate Control System
(if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System
keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean,
using the automatic air circulation control
with the exhaust gas/outside odor detection
sensor and with ion control.
WAE0219X
[Auto Recirc]:
Touch to turn on the automatic air
recirculation mode.
Plasmacluster®icon:
Indicates the Plasmacluster®ion emis-
sion status.
Automatic air recirculation control with the
exhaust gas/outside odor detection sensor:
The Advanced Climate Control system
comes with an exhaust gas detection/out-
side odor sensor. When the automatic air
circulation control is activated, the sensor
detects odors outside the vehicle such as
pulp or chemicals, and exhaust gas such as
gasoline or diesel. When such odors or gases
are detected, the display and the system automatically change from the fresh air
mode to the recirculation mode.
When the automatic air circulation control
mode is on, for the first 5 minutes, the air
recirculation mode is selected to prevent
dust, dirt and pollen from entering the
vehicle and to clean the air inside of the
vehicle.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust
gas and automatically alternates between
the air recirculation mode and the fresh air
mode.
NOTE:
The automatic air recirculation mode can be
activated under the following conditions.
.
The air flow control is not in the wind-
shield defrosting mode (the indicator
light on
is turned off).
. The outside temperature is approxi-
mately 32 °F (0 °C) or above.
Ion control:
The Advanced Climate Control system unit
generates highly concentrated Plasmaclus-
ter
®ions into the air blown from the
ventilators to reduce odor absorbed into
the interior trim and to suppress airborne
bacteria. The high-density Plasmacluster
®
ions also have a proven skin moisture
preserving effect.

Automatic deactivation
Active Lane Control is not designed to
operate under the following conditions:
. When the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system (except TCS function) or
ABS operates.
. When you operate the lane change signal
and change the traveling lanes in the
direction of the signal. (Active Lane

operated.
After the above conditions have finished and
the operating conditions are satisfied again,
Active Lane Control will resume operation.
Temporary disabled status at high
temperature
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then Ac-
tive Lane Control is turned on, Active Lane
Control may be deactivated automatically.
The high cabin temperature message will
appear in the vehicle information display
.
Action to take:
When the interior temperature is reduced,
push the dynamic driver assistance switch
again to turn Active Lane Control back on.

Illustration 10: The BSI system will not
operate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detection
zone. In this case only the BSW system
operates.
NOTE:
. The radar sensors may not detect a
vehicle which is traveling at about the
same speed as your vehicle when it
enters the detection zone.
. If the driver activates the turn signal
before a vehicle enters the detection
zone, the side indicator light will flash
but no chime will sound when the other
vehicle is detected. .
BSI will not operate or will stop operat-
ing and only a warning chime will sound
under the following conditions.
— When the vehicle is accelerated dur-
