2023 INFINITI QX55 warning

WARNING
• Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Moving
Object Detection system could result in
serious injury or death.
• The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with objects
surrounding the vehicle. When maneu-
vering, always use the outside mirrors
and rearview mirror and turn and check
the surroundings to ensure it is safe to
maneuver.
• The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
• The MOD system is not designed to de-
tect surrounding stationary objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when back-
ing out of garages, maneuvering in parking
lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown in the display.MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
• When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position. When activating the Around
View® Monitor, the guide lines, the icons
and the messages may not be displayed
immediately.
• When the
CAMERA button is pressed
to activate the camera view on the display.
• When vehicle speed decreases below ap- proximately 6 mph (10 km/h) and the cam-
era screen is shown in the upper display.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is
displayed:
• When the shift position is in the P (Park) orN (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects moving
objects in the bird’s-eye view. The MOD
system will not operate if the outside mir-
rors are moving in or out, in the stowed
position, or if either front door is opened.

2. Touch the “Settings” key
3. Touch the “Camera’ key then the “Cam- era” key again.
4. Touch “Moving Object Detection” on the menu screen to switch between on and
off.
You can also turn MOD on and off by touch-
ing the “
” keyO4on the upper display.
When MOD is on, the indicator will turn yel-
low. When MOD is off, the indicator will turn
black.
When the sonar or MOD system is com-
pletely turned off from the setting menu, the
“
” will turn black.
MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle in ac-
cordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
• Excessive noise (for example, audio sys-
tem volume or open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
• The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such as:
– When there is low contrast between
background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when a mirror
is folded. –
When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
• The MOD system might detect flowing
water droplets on the camera lens, white
smoke from the muffler, moving shad-
ows, etc.
• The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
• If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed, leav-
ing it misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered and the MOD sys-
tem may not detect objects properly.
• When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display ob-
jects clearly. This is not a malfunction.

WARNING
• The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
• Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
also not be left alone. They could acci-
dentally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of the
vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause se-
vere 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.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.

–– If the surface temperature of thesteering-wheel is above the temperature
within which the system is designed to
operate, the system will not heat the
steering-wheel. This is not a malfunction. The air conditioner system in your INFINITI
vehicle is charged with a refrigerant designed
with the environment in mind.
This refrigerant does not harm the earth's
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant is
required when servicing your INFINITI air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to your
air conditioner system. For additional infor-
mation, see “Air conditioner system refriger-
ant and oil recommendations” (P. 10-7).
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for servicing your “environmentally
friendly” air conditioning system.
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with proper equipment. The vehicle is equipped with a shark fin an-
tenna and an antenna pattern is printed in-
side the rear window.
CAUTION
• Do not place metalized film near the rear
window glass or attach any metal parts
to it. This may cause poor reception or
noise.
• When cleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow, be careful not to scratch or damage
the rear window antenna. Lightly wipe
along the antenna with a dampened soft
cloth.

When installing a CB, ham radio or car phone
in your vehicle, be sure to observe the follow-
ing precautions; otherwise, the new equip-
ment may adversely affect the engine control
system and other electronic parts.
WARNING
• A cellular phone should not be used for
any purpose while driving so full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of
cellular phones while driving.
• If you must make a call while your vehicle
is in motion, the hands free cellular phone
operational mode is highly recom-
mended. Exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
• If you are unable to devote full attention
to vehicle operation while talking on the
phone, pull off the road to a safe location
and stop your vehicle.
CAUTION
• Keep the antenna as far away as possible
from the electronic control modules.
• Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic control
system harnesses. Do not route the an-
tenna wire next to any harness.
• Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio
as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
• For additional information, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for servicing. “Made for iPod”, “Made for iPhone” and
