2023 INFINITI QX55 warning

Perform the following steps to enable or dis-
able the BSI system:
1. Press the MENU button below the lowerdisplay screen.
2. Select “Driver Assistance.”
3. Select “Blind Spot Assist.”
4. Select “ON” to turn the “Blind Spot Inter- vention” system on or off.
• Select “Blind Spot Indicator” and set it to either “Standard”, “Bright” or “Dark.”
NOTE:
Turning on the ProPILOT Assist system will
turn on the BSI and LDP system at the same
time. For additional information, see “Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP)” (P. 5-39 ).
BSI SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the BSI system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
• The BSI system cannot detect all vehicles
under all conditions. •
The radar sensors may not be able to de-
tect and activate BSI when certain ob-
jects are present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, or animals.
– Vehicles such as motorcycles, low
height vehicles, or high ground clear-
ance vehicles.
– Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop. For additional information, see
“BSI driving situations” (P. 5-59).
– Oncoming vehicles.
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle. For additional
information, see “BSI driving situa-
tions” (P. 5-59).
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind. For additional information,
see “BSI driving situations” (P. 5-59).
– A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly. For additional infor-
mation, see “BSI driving situations”
(P. 5-59).
– A vehicle that passes through the de-
tection zone quickly. •
The radar sensor’s detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an ad-
jacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
• The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects; however, ob-
jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage
and parked vehicles may occasionally be
detected. This is a normal driving
condition.
• The following conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other ve-
hicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the vehicle
• Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.
Starting and driving5-57

NOTE:
• Illustration 12: The BSI system will not op-erate if your vehicle is on a lane marker
when another vehicle enters the detection
zone. In this case, only the BSW system
operates.
• BSI braking will not operate or will stop operating and only a warning chime will
sound under the following conditions:– When the brake pedal is depressed.
– When the vehicle is accelerated during BSI system operation.
– When steering quickly. – When the PFCW or FEB with Pedes-
trian Detection warnings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When any of the following messages appear
on the vehicle information display, a chime
will sound and the BSI system will be turned
off automatically.
• “Not Available Poor Road Conditions”: When the VDC system (except traction
control system function) or ABS operates.
• “Currently Not Available”: When the VDC system is turned off.
• “Not Available: High Camera Temp”: When the camera detects that the interior
temperature is high (over approximately
104°F [40°C]).
• “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”: When side radar blockage is detected.
Turn off the BSI system and turn it on again
when the above conditions no longer exist.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSI system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will sound
and the warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the warning
light (orange) continues to illuminate, have
the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unitO1for the BSI system is
located above the inside mirror. The two ra-
dar sensors
O2for the BSI system are located
near the rear bumper. To keep the proper
operation of the BSI system and prevent a
system malfunction, be sure to observe the
following:
• Always keep the windshield and the area near the radar sensors clean. • The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-
porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog. The blocked condi-
tion may also be caused by objects such as
ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar sen-
sors. Check for and remove objects ob-
structing the area around the radar
sensors.
• Do not attach stickers (including transpar- ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the camera unit or
radar sensors.
• Do not place reflective materials, such as white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability
of detecting the lane markers.
• Do not strike or damage the area around the radar sensors. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove the screw located on the
camera unit. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer if the camera unit
and/or area around the radar sensors is
damaged due to a collision.

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the RCTA system
could result in serious injury or death.
• The RCTA system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is not
designed to prevent contact with ve-
hicles or objects. When backing out of a
parking space, always use the side and
rear mirrors and turn and look in the di-
rection your vehicle will move. Never rely
solely on the RCTA system.
The RCTA system will assist you when back-
ing out from a parking space. When the ve-
hicle is in reverse, the system is designed to
detect other vehicles approaching from the
right or left of the vehicle. If the system de-
tects cross traffic, it will alert you.

HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE
RCTA SYSTEM
Perform the following steps to enable or dis-
able the RCTA system.
1. Press the MENU button below the lowerdisplay screen.
2. Select “Driver Assistance.”
3. Select “Blind Spot Assist.”
4. Select “ON” to turn the “Blind Spot Warning” system on or off.
NOTE:
• The RCTA system is integrated into theBSW system. There is not a separate se-
lection in the vehicle information display
for the RCTA system. When the BSW is
disabled, the RCTA system is also
disabled.
• When enabling/disabling the system, the system setting will be retained even if the
engine is restarted.

RCTA SYSTEM LIMITATIONSWARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the RCTA system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death. •
Always check surroundings and turn to
check what is behind you before backing
up. The radar sensors detect approach-
ing (moving) vehicles. The radar sensors
cannot detect every object such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, motorcycles,
animals or child-operated toy ve-
hicles
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds
greater than approximately 19 mph
(30 km/h)
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds
lower than approximately 5 mph (8
km/h)
• The radar sensors may not detect ap-
proaching vehicles in certain situations:
– Illustration
OA: When a vehicle
parked next to you obstructs the
beam of the radar sensor.
– Illustration
OB: When the vehicle is
parked in an angled parking space.
– Illustration
OC: When the vehicle is
parked on inclined ground.
– Illustration
OD: When an approaching
vehicle turns into your vehicle's park-
ing lot aisle.
– Illustration
OE: When the angle
formed by your vehicle and ap-
proaching vehicle is small.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the system
will be deactivated automatically. The “Un-
available: Side Radar Obstruction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
The systems are not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary ambient conditions such as splashing
water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused by
objects such as ice, snow, frost or dirt ob-
structing the radar sensors.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
Malfunction
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it will
turn off automatically. The system malfunc-
tion warning message will appear in the ve-
hicle information display.
