2023 INFINITI QX80 emergency

WAF0315X
Warning light
When the system is not operating properly,
the chime sounds and the system warning
(yellow) will come on.
Action to take:
If the warning comes on, park the vehicle in a
safe place. Turn the engine off, restart the
engine, resume driving and then perform the
setting again.
If it is not possible to set or the indicator
stays on, it may indicate that the system is
malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is still
driveable under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the DCA
system could result in serious personal
injury or death.
.Always drive carefully and atten-
tively when using the DCA system.
Read and understand the Owner’s
Manual thoroughly before using the
DCA system. To avoid serious injury
or death, do not rely on the system to
prevent accidents or to control the
vehicle’s speed in emergency situa-
tions. Do not use the DCA system
except in appropriate road and traffic
conditions.
. This system is only an aid to assist the
driver and is not a collision warning or
avoidance device. It is the driver’s
responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
. As there is a performance limit to the
distance control function, never rely
solely on the DCA system. This sys-
tem does not correct careless, inat-
tentive or absent-minded driving, or
overcome poor visibility in rain, fog,
or other bad weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by depressing the brake
pedal, depending on the distance to
the vehicle ahead and the surround-
ing circumstances in order to main-
tain a safe distance between vehicles.
. Always pay attention to the opera-
tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually decelerate to maintain the
proper following distance. The DCA
system may not be able to decelerate
the vehicle under some circum-
stances.
. This system only brakes and moves
the accelerator pedal upward to help
assist the driver to maintain a follow-
ing distance from the vehicle ahead.
Acceleration should be operated by
the driver.
. The DCA system does not control
vehicle speed or warn you when you
approach stationary and slow moving
vehicles. You must pay attention to
vehicle operation to maintain proper
distance from vehicles ahead.
. The DCA system automatically de-
celerates your vehicle to help assist
the driver to maintain a following
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Manually brake when deceleration is
required to maintain a safe distance
upon sudden braking by the vehicle

DISTANCE CONTROL ASSIST
(DCA) (if so equipped)

To keep the DCA system operating properly,
be sure to observe the following:
.Always keep the sensor area of the front
bumper clean.
. Do not strike or damage the areas around
the sensor.
. 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
sensor area (brush guard, etc.). This
could cause failure or malfunction.
. Do not alter, remove or paint the front
bumper. Before customizing or restoring
the front bumper, it is recommended you
contact an INFINITI retailer.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system could
result in serious injury or death.
.The FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system is a supplemental aid to the
driver. It is not a replacement for the
driver’s attention to traffic condi-
tions or responsibility to drive safely.
It cannot prevent accidents due to
carelessness or dangerous driving
techniques.
. The FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system does not function in all driv-
ing, traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
can assist the driver when there is a risk of a
forward collision with
. a vehicle ahead in the travelling lane
. a pedestrian ahead in the travelling lane
JVS1158X
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
uses a radar sensorlocated on the front of
the vehicle to measure the distance to the
vehicle ahead in the same lane.
For pedestrians, the FEB system uses a
camera
installed behind the windshield in
addition to the radar sensor.

FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN DETEC-
TION SYSTEM OPERATION
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
will function when your vehicle is driven at
speeds above approximately 3 MPH (5
km/h).
For the pedestrian detection function, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system op-
erates at speeds between 6 – 37 MPH (10 –
60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system will
firstly provide the warning to the driver by
flashing the vehicle ahead detection indica-
tor (yellow) in the vehicle information display
and providing an audible alert. In addition,
the system applies partial braking.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully after the warning, and the FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system detects
that there is still the possibility of a forward
collision, the system will automatically in-
crease the braking force.
If the driver does not take action, the FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system issues the
second visual (flashing) (red) and audible
warning. Then the system applies partial
braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes imminent,

Push the switch on to warn other drivers
when you must stop or park under emer-
gency conditions. All turn signal lights will
flash.
WARNING
.If stopping for an emergency, be sure
to move the vehicle well off the road.
. Do not use the hazard warning
flashers while moving on the highway
unless unusual circumstances force
you to drive so slowly that your
vehicle might become a hazard to
other traffic. .
Turn signals do not work when the
hazard warning flasher lights are on.
The flasher can be actuated with the ignition
switch in any position.
When an impact that could activate the
supplemental air bags is detected, the
hazard warning flasher lights blink automa-
tically. If the hazard warning flasher switch is
pushed twice, the hazard warning flashers
will turn off.
WARNING
Do not turn the hazard warning flasher
switch to off until you can make sure
that it is safe to do so. Also, the hazard
flasher warning may not blink automa-
tically depending on the force of impact.
Some state laws may prohibit the use of the
hazard warning flasher switch while driving. In the event of a roadside emergency,
Roadside Assistance Service is available to
you. Please refer to your Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet (U.S.) or Warranty & Roadside
Assistance Information Booklet (Canada) for
