2021 INFINITI Q60 COUPE headlights

5-38Starting and driving
— When driving in a makeshift or
temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire
conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, non-stan-
dard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original steering parts, brake
parts or suspension parts.
.The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the LDW and LDP systems may
not operate properly.
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
— On roads where there are sharp
curves.
— On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as sha-dows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining after
road repairs. (The LDW and LDP
systems could detect these items
as lane markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di-
rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When traveling close to the ve-
hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres
to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not
bright due to dirt on the lens or
if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane
camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the front
of the vehicle at sunrise or sun-
set.)
— When a sudden change in bright-
ness occurs. (For example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnelor under a bridge.)

5-54Starting and driving
.The radar sensors are designed to
ignore most stationary objects, how-
ever objects such as guardrails, walls,
foliage and parked vehicles may oc-
casionally be detected. This is a
normal operation condition.
.The camera may not detect lane
markers in the following situations
and the BSI system may not operate
properly.
— On roads where there are multi-
ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; nonstandard lane
markers; lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
— On roads where there are sharp
curves.
— On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as sha-
dows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining after
road repairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.— When the vehicle’s traveling di-
rection does not align with the
lane markers.
— When traveling close to the ve-
hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres
to the windshield in front of a lane
camera unit.
— When the headlights are not
bright due to dirt on the lens or
if aiming is not adjusted properly.
— When strong light enters a lane
camera unit. (For example: light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
— When a sudden change in bright-
ness occurs. (For example: when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)
.Do not use the BSI system under the
following conditions because the sys-
tem may not function properly.
— During bad weather. (For exam-
ple: rain, fog, snow, etc.)
— When driving on slippery roads,
such as on ice or snow, etc.— When driving on winding or un-
even roads.
— When there is a lane closure due
to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or
temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
— When driving with a tire that is
not within normal tire conditions
(for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original steering parts or sus-
pension parts.
.Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound,
and it may not be heard.

HEADLIGHTS
If replacement is required, it is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of
the exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash.
A temperature difference between the inside
and the outside of the lens causes the fog.
This is not a malfunction. If large drops of
water collect inside the lens, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS

other corrosive materials, check lubrication
frequently.
Lights*:Clean the headlights on a regular
basis. Make sure that the headlights, stop
lights, tail lights, turn signal lights, and other
lights are all operating properly and installed
securely. Also check headlight aim.
Road wheel nuts (lug nuts)*:When checking
the tires, make sure no wheel nuts are
missing, and check for any loose wheel nuts.
Tighten if necessary.
Tire rotation*:Rotate tires at the specified
interval shown in the maintenance schedule.
If your vehicle is equipped with different
sized tires in the front and rear, tires cannot
be rotated.
Tires*:Check the pressure with a gauge
often and always prior to long distance trips.
If necessary, adjust the pressure in all tires,
including the spare, to the pressure speci-
fied. Check carefully for damage, cuts or
excessive wear.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
transmitter components:Replace the TPMS
transmitter grommet seal, valve core and
cap when the tires are replaced due to wear
or age.
Wheel alignment and balance:If the vehicle
should pull to either side while driving on a
straight and level road, or if you detect
uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may bea need for wheel alignment.
If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at
normal highway speeds, wheel balancing
may be needed.
For additional information regarding tires,
refer to “Important Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in
the INFINITI Warranty Information Booklet.
Windshield:Clean the windshield on a
regular basis. Check the windshield at least
every six months for cracks or other damage.
Have a damaged windshield repaired by a
qualified repair facility. It is recommended
that you have a damaged windshield re-
paired by an INFINITI retailer, or an INFINITI
Certified Collision Center. To locate a colli-
sion center in your area, refer to http://
collision.infinitiusa.com.
Windshield wiper blades*:Check for cracks
or wear if they do not wipe properly.
Inside the vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
checked on a regular basis, such as when
performing scheduled maintenance, cleaning
the vehicle, etc.
Accelerator pedal:Check the pedal for
smooth operation and make sure the pedal
does not catch or require uneven effort.
Keep the floor mat away from the pedal.Automatic transmission P (Park) mechan-
ism:On a fairly steep hill, check that your
vehicle is held securely with the shift lever in
the P (Park) position without applying any
brakes.
Brake pedal:Check the pedal for smooth
operation. If the brake pedal suddenly goes
down further than normal, the pedal feels
spongy or the vehicle seems to take longer to
stop, have your vehicle checked immediately.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service. Keep the floor mat
away from the pedal.
Brakes:Check that the brakes do not pull the
vehicle to one side when applied.
Parking brake:Check the parking brake
operation regularly. The vehicle should be
securely held on a fairly steep hill with only
the parking brake applied. If the parking
brake needs adjusted, it is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Seats:Check seat position controls such as
seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc. to
ensure they operate smoothly and that all
latches lock securely in every position. Check
that the head restraints move up and down
smoothly and that the locks (if so equipped)
hold securely in all latched positions.
Seat belts:Check that all parts of the seat
belt system (for example, buckles, anchors,
adjuster and retractors) operate properly
