2021 INFINITI QX50 sensor

– When the ICC, DCA, PFCW or FEB withPedestrian Detection warnings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When any of the following messages appear
on the vehicle information display, a chime
will sound and the BSI system will be turned
off automatically.
• “Not Available Poor Road Conditions”: When the VDC system (except traction
control system function) or ABS operates.
• “Currently Not Available”: When the VDC system is turned off.
• “Not Available: High Camera Temp”: When the camera detects that the interior
temperature is high (over approximately
104°F [40°C]).
• “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”: When side radar blockage is detected.
Turn off the BSI system and turn it on again
when the above conditions no longer exist.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSI system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will sound
and the warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the warning
light (orange) continues to illuminate, have
the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unitO1for the BSI system is
located above the inside mirror. The two ra-
dar sensors
O2for the BSI system are located
near the rear bumper. To keep the proper
operation of the BSI system and prevent a
system malfunction, be sure to observe the
following:
• Always keep the windshield and the area near the radar sensors clean.

• The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog. The blocked condi-
tion may also be caused by objects such as
ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar sen-
sors. Check for and remove objects ob-
structing the area around the radar
sensors.
• Do not attach stickers (including transpar- ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the camera unit or
radar sensors.
• Do not place reflective materials, such as white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability
of detecting the lane markers.
• Do not strike or damage the area around the radar sensors. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove the screw located on the
camera unit. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer if the camera unit
and/or area around the radar sensors is
damaged due to a collision.Radio frequency statement

The RCTA system uses radar sensorsO1in-
stalled on both sides near the rear bumper to
detect an approaching vehicle.
The radar sensors
O1can detect an ap-
proaching vehicle from up to approximately
66 ft (20 m) away.

RCTA SYSTEM LIMITATIONSWARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the RCTA system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death. •
Always check surroundings and turn to
check what is behind you before backing
up. The radar sensors detect approach-
ing (moving) vehicles. The radar sensors
cannot detect every object such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles,
animals or child-operated toy ve-
hicles
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds
greater than approximately 19 mph
(30 km/h)
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds
lower than approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h)
• The radar sensors may not detect ap-
proaching vehicles in certain situations:
– Illustration
OA: When a vehicle
parked next to you obstructs the
beam of the radar sensor.
– Illustration
OB: When the vehicle is
parked in an angled parking space.
– Illustration
OC: When the vehicle is
parked on inclined ground.
– Illustration
OD: When an approaching
vehicle turns into your vehicle's park-
ing lot aisle.
– Illustration
OE: When the angle
formed by your vehicle and ap-
proaching vehicle is small.

•The following conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other ve-
hicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/snow/dirt build-up on the
vehicle
• Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
• Excessive noise (e.g., audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
NOTE:
In the case of several vehicles approaching in
a row (Illustration 1) or in the opposite direc-
tion (Illustration 2), a chime may not be
sounded by the RCTA system after the first
vehicle passes the sensors.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLEWhen radar blockage is detected, the system
will be deactivated automatically. The “Un-available: Side Radar Obstruction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
The systems are not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary ambient conditions such as splashing
water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing
the radar sensors.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
Malfunction
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it will
turn off automatically. The system malfunc-
tion warning message will appear in the ve-
hicle information display.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.

•Always drive carefully and attentively
when using the ProPILOT Assist system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
ProPILOT Assist system. To avoid seri-
ous injury or death, do not rely on the
system to prevent accidents or to control
the vehicle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the ProPILOT Assist
system except in appropriate road and
traffic conditions.
The ProPILOT Assist system is intended to
enhance the operation of the vehicle when
following a vehicle traveling in the same lane
and direction. The ProPILOT Assist system uses a multi-
sensing front cameraOAinstalled behind the
windshield and a radar sensor located on the
front of the vehicle
OBto measure the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead in the same lane
and to monitor the lane markers. If the vehicle
detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the
system will reduce the vehicle speed so that
your vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the
selected distance. The system will also help
keep the vehicle centered in the traveling lane
when clear lane markings are detected.
