For more information, refer to the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems (section 4)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians (VSP) System

The Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians system helps alert pedestrians to the presence of the

vehicle when it is being driven at a low-speed.

When the vehicle starts to move, it produces a sound. The sound stops when the vehicle

speed reaches approximately 19 mph (30 km/h) while accelerating.

This sound will activate again when decelerating to a speed less than 16 mph (25 km/h).

For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview (section Hybrid System)” of your Owner’s Manual.

new system features

Automatic Anti-glare Mirrors

The inside rearview mirror and both outside mirrors are designed to automatically change

reflection according to the intensity of the headlights of the vehicle following you.

The anti-glare system will be automatically turned on when the ignition switch is in

the ON position.

For more information, refer to the “Pre-driving checks and adjustments (section 3)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI) (if so equipped)

The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system alerts the

driver when another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s detection zone.

An indicator light located near the outside mirror 1

will illuminate if the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the detection zone.

The Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI) system can assist the driver in

returning the vehicle to the center of the traveling lane by applying individual brake pressure to the left or right wheels for a short period of time.

The indicator light 2 will first illuminate in orange and then turn green

before extinguishing. This indicates that the Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI) systems are operational.

For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) (if so equipped)

The Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) system can help alert the driver of an approaching

vehicle or objects behind the vehicle when backing out of parking spaces.

The rear radar sensors detect the approaching vehicle from up to approximately

49 ft (15 m) from the bumper.

For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) (if so equipped)

The Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) system can help alert the driver when

there is sudden braking of the second vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle ahead that is traveling in the same lane.

The PFCW uses a sensor in the front bumper to measure the distance of a second vehicle

ahead in the traveling lane. The system operates at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h).

If there is a potential risk, the PFCW will warn the driver with a blinking driver assist

system forward indicator and an audible warning tone will be heard.

For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) (if so equipped)

The Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) system can assist the driver when there is risk of a

forward collision with the vehicle in the traveling lane.

The FEB operates at speeds greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).

If there is a risk of a collision, an audible tone will be heard, a visual warning will display

and the vehicle will push up on the accelerator pedal. If the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will begin applying the brakes; however, if the driver does nothing, the system will issue another audible and visual warning and apply the brakes harder.

For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) (if so equipped)

The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system can help alert the driver when the vehicle is

traveling too close to either the left or the right side of a traveling lane.

The system will operate when the vehicle is driven at speeds of approximately 45 mph

(70 km/h) and above and only when the lane markings are clearly visible on the road.

When the vehicle approaches either the left or the right side of the traveling

lane, the LDW system will chime and the orange LDW light 1 on the instrument panel will blink to alert the driver.

The LDW system can be turned on and off through

the Settings menu in the vehicle information display. To temporarily turn off the system, push the warning systems switch 2 .

When the system is off, the indicator light 3 on the

switch is off.

essential information

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message will

appear in the vehicle information display 1 and the low tire pressure warning light when one or more tires are low in pressure and air is needed.

• The tire pressures should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

After the tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 mph

(25 km/h). The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message and low tire pressure warning light 2 will extinguish.

When the low tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the

TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and

the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light pressure in your tires.

• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to the

“Technical and consumer information” (section 9) of your Owner’s Manual for the location of the Tire and Loading Information label.

For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.

will illuminate

Direct Response Hybrid™ System Warning Light

This light will illuminate when the ignition switch is

in the ON position and will extinguish when the hybrid system is started.

The light will also illuminate when a malfunction

occurs in the electric motor or hybrid system.

When this light illuminates while driving, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe location

and contact an INFINITI retailer.

If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate that the Li-ion

battery charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.

For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Hybrid Awareness

Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your vehicle while it is ON but

the hybrid system is not running, the hybrid system will automatically start, informing you that the vehicle is still ON.

Do not store your INFINITI Intelligent Key within the detection range of the vehicle.

This may cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating unwanted battery drain.

The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Activation of the

electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full battery display does not indicate the vehicle should be in the electric mode.

For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview (section Hybrid System)” of your Owner’s Manual.
