Illustration 10: The BSI system will not oper-
ate if your vehicle is on a lane marker when
another vehicle enters the detection zone. In
this case only the BSW system operates.

as your vehicle when it enters the detec-
tion zone.
• BSI 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 ICC, PFCW or FEB with Pe- destrian Detection warnings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
– When the BSW system is turned off.

1Side BSW/RCTA Indicator Light
The RCTA system can help alert the driver of
an approaching vehicle when the driver is
backing out of a parking space.
When the shift position is in R (Reverse) and
the vehicle speed is less than approximately
5 mph (8 km/h), the RCTA system is
operational.
If the radar detects an approaching vehicle
from either side, the system chimes (once)
and the side BSW/RCTA indicator light
flashes on the side the vehicle is approaching
from.

PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE
CONTROL
1. ACCEL/RES switch
2. COAST/SET switch
3. CANCEL switch
4. ON/OFF switch
• If the cruise control system malfunctions, itwill cancel automatically. The SET indicator
in the vehicle information display will blink
to warn the driver.
• If the engine coolant temperature becomes excessively high, the cruise control system
will be canceled automatically. • If the SET indicator blinks, turn the ON/
OFF switch off and have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
• The SET indicator may sometimes blink when the ON/OFF switch is turned on
while pushing the ACCEL/RES, COAST/
SET or CANCEL switch. To properly set
the cruise control system, perform the
steps below.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driving
under the following conditions:
• When it is not possible to keep the ve-
hicle 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 con-
trol and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) with-
out keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the cruise
control ON/OFF switch on. The
indica-
tor (white) in the vehicle information display
will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle
to the desired speed, push the SET- switch
and release it. The
indicator (green) in
the vehicle information display will illuminate.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Your vehicle maintains the set speed.
• To pass another vehicle, depress the accel-
erator pedal. When you release the pedal,
the vehicle returns to the previously set
speed.
• The vehicle may not maintain the set speed when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
• Push the CANCEL switch; the
indica-
tor (green) in the vehicle information display
goes out.
