IC: 4135A-ARS4A
FCC ID: OAYARS4A
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules and with Industry Canada licence
exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is sub-
ject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interfer- ence received, including interference

CONVENTIONAL (fixed speed)
CRUISE CONTROL MODE
This mode allows driving at a speed between
25 to 90 MPH (40 to 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
WARNING
.In the conventional (fixed speed)
cruise control mode, a warning chime does not sound to warn you if you are
too close to the vehicle ahead, as
neither the presence of the vehicle
ahead nor the vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance is detected.
. Pay special attention to the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead of you or a collision could
occur.
. Always confirm the setting in the ICC
system display.
. Do not use the conventional (fixed
speed) cruise control mode when
driving under the following condi-
tions.
— when it is not possible to keep the vehicle at a set speed
— in heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in speed
— on winding or hilly roads
— on slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
— in very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.

SENSOR MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the DCA systemis located
behind the grille of the front bumper.
The DCA system is designed to automati-
cally check the sensor’s operation. When the
sensor is covered with dirt or is obstructed,
the system will automatically be canceled. If
the sensor is covered with ice, a transparent
or translucent vinyl bag, etc., the DCA
system may not detect them. In these
instances, the DCA system may not be able
to decelerate the vehicle properly. Be sure to
check and clean the sensor regularly.
To keep the DCA system operating properly,
be sure to observe the following: .
Always keep the sensor area of the front
bumper clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensor.
. Do not cover or attach stickers or similar
objects on the front bumper near the
sensor area. This could cause failure or
malfunction.
. Do not attach metallic objects near the
sensor area (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
bumper. Before customizing or restoring
the front bumper, it is recommended you
contact an INFINITI retailer.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the FEB

driver. It is not a replacement for the
driver’s attention to traffic condi-
tions or responsibility to drive safely.
It cannot prevent accidents due to
carelessness or dangerous driving
techniques.
. The FEB with pedestrian detection
system does not function in all driv-
ing, traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The FEB with pedestrian detection system
can assist the driver when there is a risk of a
forward collision with the vehicle ahead in
the traveling lane or with a pedestrian.

To keep the FEB with pedestrian detection
system operating properly, be sure to ob-
serve the following:
. Always keep the sensor area of the front
bumper and windshield clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensors (ex. Bumper, windshield).
. Do not cover or attach stickers or similar
objects on the front bumper near the
sensor area. This could cause failure or
malfunction. .
Do not attach metallic objects near the
radar sensor area (brush guard, etc.).
This could cause failure or malfunction.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and

system could result in serious injury or
death.
.The PFCW system helps warn the
driver before a collision but will not
avoid a collision. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
The PFCW system can help alert the driver
when there is a sudden braking of a second
vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle ahead
in the same lane.

reduced engine performance.
. Avoid driving for long periods at constant
speed, either fast or slow. Do not run the
engine over 4,000 rpm.
. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any
gear.
. Avoid quick starts.
. Avoid hard braking as much as possible.

WAXING
Regular waxing protects the paint surface
and helps retain new vehicle appearance.
Polishing is recommended to remove built-
up wax residue and to avoid a weathered
appearance before reapplying wax.
An INFINITI retailer can assist you in choos-
ing the proper product.
.Wax your vehicle only after a thorough
washing. Follow the instructions sup-
plied with the wax.
. Do not use a wax containing any abra-
sives, cutting compounds or cleaners
that may damage the vehicle finish.
Machine compound or aggressive polishing
on a base coat/clear coat paint finish may
dull the finish or leave swirl marks.
REMOVING SPOTS
Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust,
insects, and tree sap as quickly as possible
from the paint surface to avoid lasting
damage or staining. Special cleaning pro-
ducts are available at an INFINITI retailer or
any automotive accessory stores.
UNDERBODY
In areas where road salt is used in winter, the
underbody must be cleaned regularly. This
will prevent dirt and salt from building up
and causing the acceleration of corrosion on
the underbody and suspension. Before the
winter period and again in the spring, the
underseal must be checked and, if necessary,
re-treated.
GLASS
Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust
film from the glass surfaces. It is normal for
glass to become coated with a film after the
vehicle is parked in the hot sun. Glass cleaner
and a soft cloth will easily remove this film.
CAUTION
When cleaning the inside of the win-
dows, do not use sharp-edged tools,
abrasive cleaners or chlorine-based dis-
infectant cleaners. They could damage
the electrical conductors, radio antenna
elements or rear window defroster ele-
ments.
WHEELS
Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle
to maintain their appearance.
. Clean the inner side of the wheels when
the wheel is changed or the underside of
the vehicle is washed.
. Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or
corrosion. Such damage may cause loss
of pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.
. INFINITI recommends that the road
wheels be waxed to protect against road
salt in areas where it is used during
winter.
CAUTION
Do not use abrasive cleaners when
washing the wheels.
Aluminum alloy wheels
Wash regularly with a sponge dampened in a
mild soap solution, especially during winter
months in areas where road salt is used. Salt
could discolor the wheels if not removed.
