TION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the FEB with pedestrian detection
system. Failure to operate the vehicle in
accordance with these system limita-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
.

camera area is misted or frozen, it will take
a period of time to remove it after air
conditioner turns on. If dirt appears on this
area, it is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer.
Condition B
Under the following conditions, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
FEB with pedestrian detection system is
automatically turned off.
The FEB system warning light (orange)
will illuminate and the “Not Available: Front
Radar Blocked” warning message will ap-

that the internal motor temperature is high,
the FEB with pedestrian detection system is
automatically turned off. The FEB system
warning light (orange)
will illuminate.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,

audible warning operates. The FEB system warning light (orange)
will illuminate.
Action to take:
When VDC system is ON, the FEB with
pedestrian detection system will resume
automatically.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The radar sensoris located behind the
grille of the front bumper. The camerais
located on the upper side of the windshield.
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.
. Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely affect the camera unit’s
detection capability.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
bumper. It is recommended you contact
an INFINITI retailer before customizing
or restoring the front bumper.
