SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unitfor the LDW system
is located above the inside mirror.
To keep the proper operation of the LDW
system and prevent a system malfunction,
be sure to observe the following:
. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including trans-
parent material) or install an accessory
near the camera unit.
. Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely affect the camera unit’s
capability of detecting the lane markers. .
Do not strike or damage the areas around
the camera unit. Do not touch the
camera lens or remove the screw located
on the camera unit. If the camera unit is
damaged due to an accident, it is re-
commended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the LDP
system could result in serious injury or
death.
. The LDP system will not steer the
vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is
the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle
in the traveling lane, and be in control
of the vehicle at all times.
. The LDP system is primarily intended
for use on well-developed freeways
or highways. It may not detect the
lane markers in certain road, weath-
er, or driving conditions.

The LDP system must be turned on with the
dynamic driver assistance switch on the
steering wheel, every time the ignition is
placed in the ON position.
The LDP system will operate when the
vehicle is driven at speeds of approximately
37 MPH (60 km/h) and above, and only
when the lane markings are clearly visible on
the road. The LDP system warns the driver
when the vehicle has left the center of the
traveling lane with an indicator and steering
wheel vibration. The system helps assist the
driver to return the vehicle to the center of
the traveling lane by applying the brakes to
the left or right wheels individually (for a
short period of time).The LDP system monitors the lane markers
on the traveling lane using the camera unit
located above the inside mirror.

LDP SYSTEM OPERATION
The LDP system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h) and when the
lane markings are clear. When the vehicle
approaches either the left or the right side of
the traveling lane, steering wheel will vibrate
and the LDP indicator (orange) on the
vehicle information display will blink to alert
the driver. Then, the LDP system will auto-
matically apply the brakes for a short period
of time to help assist the driver to return the
vehicle to the center of the traveling lane.
To turn on the LDP system, push the
dynamic driver assistance switch on the
steering wheel after starting the engine.
The LDP ON indicator on the vehicle

LDP SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the LDP system. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions for proper use
of the LDP system could result in serious
injury or death.
. The LDP system may activate if you
change lanes without first activating

your turn signal or, for example, if a
construction zone directs traffic to
cross an existing lane marker. If this
occurs you may need to apply correc-
tive steering to complete your lane
change.
. Because the LDP may not activate
under the road, weather, and lane
marker conditions described in this
section, it may not activate every
time your vehicle begins to leave its
lane and you will need to apply
corrective steering.
. The LDP system will not operate at
speeds below approximately 37 MPH
(60 km/h) or if it cannot detect lane
markers.
. When the LDP system is operating,
avoid excessive or sudden steering
maneuvers. Otherwise, you could lose
control of the vehicle.
. Do not use the LDP system under the
following conditions as it may not
function properly:
— During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
— When driving on winding or un- even roads. — When there is a lane closure due
to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, non-stan-
dard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or sus-
pension parts.
— When towing a trailer or other vehicle.
— On roads where there are multi- ple parallel lane markers; lane
markers that are faded or not
painted clearly; yellow painted
lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
— On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
— On roads where there are sharp curves. — On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as sha-
dows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining after
road repairs. (The LDP system
could detect these items as lane
markers.)
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane marker.
— When traveling close to the ve- hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the
