serious injury or death.
.The RearView Monitor is a conveni-
ence but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and look
out the windows, and check mirrors
to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always
back up slowly.
. The system is designed as an aid to
the driver in showing large stationary
objects directly behind the vehicle, to
help avoid damaging the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is
on a level paved surface. The distance
viewed on the monitor is for refer-
ence only and may be different than
the actual distance between the
vehicle and displayed objects.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of
the camera.
The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle in the upper display when the shift lever is shifted into
the R (Reverse) position. When activating
the RearView Monitor, the guide lines, the
icons and the messages may not be dis-
played immediately.
The radio can still be heard while the Rear-
View Monitor is active.
WAE0234X
To display the rear view, the RearView
Monitor system uses a cameralocated
just above the vehicle’s license plate.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON position,
move the shift lever to the R (Reverse)
position to operate the RearView Monitor.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for the proper use of the
Around View
®Monitor system could
result in serious injury or death.
. The Around View
®Monitor is a
convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where
objects cannot be viewed. The four
corners of the vehicle in particular,
are areas where objects do not al-
ways appear in the bird’s-eye, front,
or rear views. Always check your
surroundings to be sure that it is safe
to move before operating the vehicle.
Always operate the vehicle slowly.
Always look out the windows and
check mirrors to be sure that it is safe
to move.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.

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.

WARNING
.The heater and air conditioner oper-
ate only when the engine is running.
. Never leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in the vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. They
could unknowingly activate switches
or controls and inadvertently become
involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to
cause severe or possibly fatal injuries
to people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
. Do not adjust the heating and air
conditioning controls while driving so
that full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when
the engine is running. The air blower will
operate even if the engine is turned off and
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position. NOTE:
.
Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger
compartment through the ventilators.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.
. Vehicles with an automatic climate con-
trol system will automatically adjust the
passenger compartment to be the set
appropriate temperature when the re-
mote engine start feature (if so
equipped) is used.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
WARNING
The air conditioner contains refrigerant
under high pressure. To avoid personal
injury, any air conditioner service should
be done only by an experienced techni-
cian with the proper equipment.
The air conditioner system in your vehicle is
charged with a refrigerant designed with the
environment in mind.
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. However, it may contribute in a
small part to global warming.
Special charging equipment and lubricant
are required when servicing your vehicle’s air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to the
air conditioner system. (See “Air conditioning
system refrigerant and oil recommenda-
tions” (P.10-7).)
An INFINITI retailer will be able to service your environmentally friendly air conditioner
system.
In-cabin microfilter
With Advanced Climate Control system:
The air conditioning system is equipped with
a natural grape seed polyphenol filter which
collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen, dust, etc.
To make sure that the air conditioner heats,
defogs and ventilates efficiently, replace the
filter in accordance with the specified main-
tenance intervals shown in the “9. Main-
tenance and schedules” section. To replace
the filter, contact an INFINITI retailer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air
conditioner.
Without Advanced Climate Control system:
The air conditioning system is equipped with
