air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion
control and the automatic air intake control with
exhaust gas/outside odor detecting sensor.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-45

Ion control :
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster ions into the air blown from the
ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the
interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster ions automati-
cally.
The amount of Plasmacluster ions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the
air flow is high, “
” is displayed on the
screen and when the air flow is low, the indica-
tion in the screen changes to “
”.
Exhaust gas/outside odor detecting sensor :
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust
gas/outside odor detecting sensor. When the
automatic intake air control is ON, the sensor
detects odors and exhaust gas and the system
then automatically changes from the outside air
circulation mode to the recirculation mode.
When the intake air control button is pushed
under the following conditions, the indicator
light on the “
” side will illuminate and the
exhaust gas/outside odor detecting sensor will
turn on. ●
The air flow control is not in the front
defogger mode (the indicator light on the
“
” front defogger button is turned off).
● The outside temperature is about 32°F (0°C)
or more.
● The exhaust gas/outside odor detecting sen-
sor detects industrial odors such as pulp or
chemicals and exhaust gas such as gasoline
or diesel.
When the automatic intake air control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with Plasumacluster ion that are
emitted from the ventilator.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects outside odor
and exhaust gas and automatically alternates
between the recirculation mode and outside air
circulation mode.
OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the air flow from
the foot outlets may not operate. This is not a
malfunction. After the coolant temperature
warms up, air will flow normally from the foot
outlets.

LANE DEPARTURE PREVENTION (LDP)
SYSTEM
Precautions on LDP system
WARNING
●The LDP system will not steer the vehicle or
prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s re-
sponsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep
the vehicle in the traveling lane, and be in
control of 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
roads, weather or driving conditions.
● Using the LDP system under some condi-
tions of road, lane marker or weather, or
when you change lanes without using the
lane change signal could lead to an unex-
pected system operation. In such condi-
tions, you need to correct the vehicle’s direc-
tion with your steering operation to avoid
accidents. ●
When the LDP system is operating, avoid
excessive or sudden steering maneuvers.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the
vehicle.
● The LDP system will not operate at speeds
below approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h) or if
it cannot detect lane markers.
● The LDP system may not function properly
under the following conditions, and do not
use the LDP system:
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, wind, etc.).
– When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow, etc.
– When driving on winding or uneven roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
– When driving without normal tire condi- tions (for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire, tire
chains, non-standard wheels). – When the vehicle is equipped with non-
original brake parts or suspension parts.
● If the LDP system malfunctions, it will cancel
automatically. The lane departure warning
light (orange) on the instrument panel will
illuminate.
● If the lane departure warning light (orange)
illuminates, pull off the road to a safe loca-
tion and stop the vehicle. Turn the engine off
and restart the engine. If the warning light
(orange) continues to illuminate, have the
LDP system checked by an INFINITI retailer.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the warn-
ing chime sound, and the chime may not be
heard.
The functions of the LDP system (warning and
brake control assist) may or may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
● On roads where there are multiple 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.
5-20Starting and driving

If the driver activates the turn signal, then the
BSW indicator light flashes and a chime will
sound twice.
NOTE:
If the driver activates the turn signal before a
vehicle enters the detection zone, the BSW indi-
cator light will flash but no chime will sound
when another vehicle is detected.
BSW temporarily not available
●When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
beep will sound and the BSW system warn- ing light (orange) will blink. The BSW system
is not available until the condition no longer
exists.
The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary
ambient conditions such as splashing water,
mist or fog. The blocked condition may also be
caused by objects such as ice, frost or dirt
obstructing the radar sensors.
Action to take:
When the above condition no longer exists, the
BSW system will resume automatically.
If the warning light (orange) continues to blink,
have the BSW system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
BSW MALFUNCTION
When the BSW system malfunctions, they will
be turned off automatically, a beep will sound
and the BSW system warning light (orange) will
illuminate.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, turn the
engine off and restart the engine.
If the warning light (orange) continues to illu-
minate, have the BSW system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensor unitsAfor the BSW
system are located near the rear bumper. Al-
ways keep the area near the radar sensors
clean. Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the radar sensors. Do not
strike or damage the area around the radar
sensors. Consult an INFINITI retailer if the area
around the radar sensors is damaged due to a
collision.

PRECAUTIONS ON VEHICLE-TO-
VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE
The system is intended to enhance the opera-
tion of the vehicle when following a vehicle
traveling in the same lane and direction.
If the distance sensor
Adetects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce
the vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows
the vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The system automatically controls the throttle
and applies the brakes (up to 25% of vehicle
braking power) if necessary.
The detection range of the sensor is approxi-
mately 390 ft (120 m) ahead.
WARNING
● 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.
● The system is primarily intended for use on
straight, dry, open roads with light traffic. It
is not advisable to use the system in city
traffic or congested areas.
● This system will not adapt automatically to
road conditions. This system should be used
in evenly flowing traffic. Do not use the sys-
tem on roads with sharp curves, or on icy
roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
The distance sensor will not detect the follow-
ing objects:
● Stationary and slow moving vehicles
● Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
● Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
● Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel
lane
WARNING
● As there is a performance limit to the dis-
tance control function, never rely solely on
the Intelligent Cruise Control system. This
system does not correct careless, inatten-
tive or absent-minded driving, or overcome
poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad
weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by de-
pressing the brake pedal, depending on the
distance to the vehicle ahead and the sur-
rounding circumstances in order to maintain
a safe distance between vehicles.
● If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the
vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the
limitations of the system. The system will
cancel once it judges that the vehicle has
come to a standstill and sound a warning
chime. To prevent the vehicle from moving,
the driver must depress the brake pedal.
● The system may not detect the vehicle in
front of you in certain road or weather condi-
tions. To avoid accidents, never use the In-
telligent Cruise Control system under the
following conditions:
– On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
SSD0701
5-36Starting and driving

– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)When the windshield wiper is operated at
the low speed (LO) or high speed (HI) po-
sition, the Intelligent Cruise Control sys-
tem is automatically canceled.
– When strong light (for example, at sun- rise or sunset) is directly shining on the
front of the vehicle
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the sys- tem sensor
– On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set vehicle speed and fre-
quent braking may result in overheating
the brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads
– When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance between vehicles
because of frequent acceleration or
deceleration
● Do not use the Intelligent Cruise Control sys-
tem if you are towing a trailer. The system
may not detect a vehicle ahead. ●
In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle
or object can unexpectedly come into the
sensor detection zone and cause automatic
braking. You may need to control the dis-
tance from other vehicles using the accelera-
tor pedal. Always stay alert and avoid using
the ICC system when it is not recommended
in this section.
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE OPERATION
Always pay attention to the operation of the
vehicle and be ready to manually control the
proper following distance. The vehicle-to-
vehicle distance control mode of the Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system may not be able to
maintain the selected distance between ve-
hicles (following distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances.
The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
uses a sensor
Alocated on the front of the
vehicle to detect vehicles traveling ahead. The
sensor generally detects the signals returned
from the reflectors on a vehicle ahead. There-
