Tow Truck TowingNAS0006T
CAUTION:

All applicable state or Provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.

It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during
towing operation. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.

Always attach safety chains before towing.

When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.

Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear (that is backward) with four wheels on
the ground. This may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:

Never tow automatic transmission models with the rear wheels on the ground or four wheels on
the ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the trans-
mission.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels raised, always use towing dollies under
the rear wheels.

When towing rear wheel drive models with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
–Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead posi-
tion with a rope or similar device.Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
–Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.

When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle
should be towed with the front wheels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the propeller shaft before towing to prevent dam-
age to the transmission.

AWD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated when towing AWD models.
CAUTION:
Never tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expen-
sive damage to the powertrain.
Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle) NAS0006U
Securely install the vehicle recovery hook stored with jacking tools.
Make sure that the hook is properly secured in the stored place after
use.
WARNING:

Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.

Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could cause them
to explode and result in serious injury. Parts of your vehicle
could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:

Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the vehicle
recovery hooks or main structural members of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.

Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a vehicle stuck in
sand, snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehicle using the vehi-
cle tie downs or recovery hooks.

Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehi-
cle. Never pull on the hook at an angle.

Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any
part of the suspension, steering, brake or cooling systems.

Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not rec-
ommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.

When ignition switch is turn to ON position, and
When outside brightness is darker than prescribed level, input is supplied

from BCM terminal 14

to optical sensor terminal 2
The headlamps will then illuminate. For a description of headlamp operation, Refer to LT- 5 6 , "
System Descrip-
tion" .
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-3, "COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION" .
DELAY TIMER FUNCTION
Delay timer function carries out a function that BCM activates the timer and controls lights out of headlamps by
door switch signal and lightning switch signal when turning the Ignition switch OFF while it is ON and head-
lamps are ON by the auto light function.
Timer types are a 5 minute timer and a 45 second timer

When opening any door (door switch is ON), the 5 minute timer starts and then headlamps go out 5 min-
utes later

When all the doors are closed (from door switch ON to OFF), the 45 second timer starts and then head-
lamps go out 45 seconds later. If any door is opened (door switch ON) while the 45 second timer is in
operation, the 5 minute timer starts again

The timer stops when turning on the ignition switch or turning off the auto light switch under the above
conditions.
Delay timer control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II or display.
CAN Communication System DescriptionNKS002WD
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitNKS002WE
Refer to LAN-32, "CAN Communication Unit" .
Major Components and FunctionsNKS002WF
Components Functions
BCM

Turns on/off circuits of tail light and headlamp according to signals from light sensor, lighting switch
(AUTO), driver door switch, passenger door switch, rear door switch, and ignition switch (ON, OFF).
Optical sensor

Converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage, and sends it to BCM. (Detects brightness of 800 to 2,500 lux)
