The vehicle should be driven with the VDC
system on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the
VDC system reduces the engine output to
reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will be
reduced even if the accelerator is depressed
to the floor. If maximum engine power is
needed to free a stuck vehicle, turn the VDC
system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. The
indicator light and the
Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian
Detection system warning light will come on. Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart
the engine to turn on the system. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” in the “Starting and
driving” section of this manual.
The Rear Door Alert system functions under
certain conditions to indicate there may be an
object or passenger in the rear seat(s). Check
the seat(s) before exiting the vehicle.
The Rear Door Alert system is initially dis-
abled. The driver can enable the system using
the vehicle information display. For additional
information, refer to “Vehicle information
display warnings and indicators” in this sec-
tion.
When the system is enabled:
∙ The system is activated when a rear door is opened and closed within 10 minutes
of the vehicle being driven. When the ve-
hicle is started and the system is acti-
vated, a visual message appears in the
vehicle information display. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Rear Door
Alert is activated” in this section.
∙ If a rear door is opened and closed but the vehicle is not driven within approxi-
mately 10 minutes, the system will not be
activated. A rear door must be opened
and closed and the car driven within
10 minutes for the system to activate.

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.
∙ The system does not directly detect ob- jects or passengers in the rear seat(s). In-
stead, it can detect when a rear door is
opened and closed, indicating that there
may be something in the rear seat(s).
NOTE:
There may be times when the horn sounds
but there are no objects or passengers in the
rear seat(s).
For additional information, refer to “Rear
Door Alert is activated” in this section. To use the outlets for devices that require
120v power, place the ignition in the ON
position and push the power inverter switch.
CAUTION
∙ Use power outlets with the engine run-
ning to avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.
∙ Do not attempt to use this while driving.

pending on the operating conditions, the bat-
tery’s life is approximately two years. If the
battery is discharged, replace it with a new
one.

indicator illuminates in the vehicle informa-
tion display. For additional information, refer
to “Vehicle information display” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and per-
sonal computer, the battery life may become
shorter.
For additional information, refer to “Battery
replacement” in the “Do-it-yourself” section
of this manual. As many as four Intelligent Keys can be reg-
istered and used with one vehicle. For infor-
mation about the purchase and use of addi-
tional Intelligent Keys, it is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer.
