2021 INFINITI QX80 parking brake

Daytime running light system
The daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to theposition for full illumination when driv-
ing at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights
do not illuminate. The daytime running lights
illuminate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on
until the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle are
not on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on
your headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself and
others.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights (low
beam) toward the turning direction to
improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS system
will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
. when the headlight switch is ON.
. when the shift lever is in any position
other than P (Park) or R (Reverse).
. when the vehicle is driven at above 3
MPH (5 km/h) for the left-side head-
light. Note that the right-side low beam
headlight will swivel but the left-side
headlight will not swivel when the vehicle
is below 3 MPH (5 km/h) and the
steering wheel is turned.
AFS will also adjust the headlight to a proper
axis automatically, depending on the number
of occupants in the vehicle, the load the
vehicle is carrying and the road conditions.
If the AFS OFF indicator light blinks after
the ignition switch has been pushed to the
ON position, this may indicate that the AFS
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. When the engine is started, the headlights will vibrate
to check the system condition. This is not a
malfunction.HEADLIGHT WASHER (if so
equipped)
The headlight washer operates when the
headlight is on and the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
Pull the windshield washer switch toward
you. The headlight washer operates with the
windshield washer operation. This operation
activates once each time either the ignition
switch or the headlight switch is turned off
and on.
After the first operation, the headlight
washer operates once at every fifth opera-
tion of the windshield washer.
CAUTION
.
Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for longer than 30 seconds.
. Do not operate the headlight washer
if the window washer fluid reservoir
is empty.

SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the sonar function. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
.Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air
brakes or a pneumatic drill may affect
the function of the system, including
reduced performance or a false acti-
vation.
. The system is not designed to pre-
vent contact with small or moving
objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bum-
per or on the ground.
. The system may not detect the
following objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain. — Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned
or bent, the sensing zone may be
altered causing inaccurate measure-
ment of objects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
Parking sonar settings menu (the setting
items are grayed out), the sonar system may
be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar (located on
the front and rear bumper fascia) free
from accumulations of snow, ice and dirt.
Do not scratch the surface of the sonar
when cleaning. If the sensors are cov-
ered, the accuracy of the sonar function
will be diminished.
