Ambient image sensor maintenance
The ambient image sensor
1for the High
Beam Assist system is located in front of the
inside mirror. To maintain the proper opera-
tion of the High Beam Assist system and
prevent a system malfunction, be sure to ob-
serve the following:
∙ Always keep the windshield clean.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the ambient image sensor. ∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around
the ambient image sensor. Do not touch
the sensor lens that is located on the
ambient image sensor.
If the ambient image sensor is damaged due
to an accident, it is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer.
Battery saver system
If the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position while the headlight switch is in
the
orposition, the headlights
will turn off after a period of time.
NOTE:
The Battery Saver system may be disabled.
For additional information, refer to “Vehicle
information display” in this section.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(DRL) SYSTEM
The LED portion of the headlights automati-
cally illuminate at 100% intensity when the
engine is started and the parking brake re-
leased. The LED Daytime Running Lights
(DRL) system operates with the headlight
switch in the OFF position. When you turn
the headlight switch to the
position for
full illumination, the LED lights switch from
LED DRL system to the park function.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the LED DRL system does
not illuminate. The LED DRL system illumi-
nates when the parking brake is released. The
LED DRL system will remain on until the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight
switch on for interior controls and switches
to illuminate, as those remain off while the
switch is in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active, tail
lights on your vehicle are not on. It is neces-
sary at dusk to turn on your headlights.
Failure to do so could cause an accident in-
juring yourself and others.

When the Rear Door Alert system is acti-
vated:∙ When the driver puts the vehicle in the P (Park) position, a notification message
appears in the vehicle information display
with the options to “Dismiss Message” or
“Disable Alert” if desired.
∙ Select “Disable Alert” to temporarily disable for that stop.
∙ No selection or ‘Dismiss Message” will keep the alert enabled for that stop.
∙ If the alert is enabled when a driver exits the vehicle, a message will appear in the
vehicle information display that states
“Check Back Seat for All Articles.”
If “Horn & Alert” setting is selected:
∙ An audible horn sound will occur after a short time unless a rear door is
opened and closed within a short time
to deactivate the alert.
∙ If the doors are locked before the alert is deactivated by opening a rear door,
the horn will sound.
∙ If the liftgate is opened before a rear door is opened, the horn will be de-
layed until after the liftgate is closed. NOTE:
If “Alert Only” setting is selected, the mes-
sage alert will still be shown in the vehicle
information display but the horn will not
sound.
WARNING
∙ If the driver selects “Disable Alert”, no
audible alert will be provided regardless
of rear door open/close status.
∙ There may be times when there is an ob- ject or passenger in the rear seat(s) but
the audible alert does not sound. For ex-
ample, this may occur if rear seat passen-
gers enter or exit the vehicle during a trip.

stead, it can detect when a rear door is
opened and closed, indicating that there
may be something in the rear seat(s).
