• The BSI system is typically activated ear-lier than the Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) system when your vehicle is ap-
proaching a lane marker.
The BSI system turns on when the ProPILOT
Assist switch on the steering wheel is pushed
when the “Blind Spot Intervention” is enabled
in the “Driver Assistance” menu in the lower
display. The BSI ON indicator on the instru-
ment panel illuminates when the BSI system
is turned on.
The BSI system provides a chime and turns on
or flashes the side indicator light even if the
BSW system is off.

BSI SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the BSI system. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
• The BSI system cannot detect all vehicles
under all conditions.
• The radar sensors may not be able to de-
tect and activate BSI when certain ob-
jects are present such as:
– Pedestrians, bicycles, or animals.
– Vehicles such as motorcycles, low
height vehicles, or high ground clear-
ance vehicles.

– When the ICC, DCA, PFCW or FEB withPedestrian Detection warnings sound.
– When the hazard warning flashers are operated.
– When driving on a curve at a high speed.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
When any of the following messages appear
on the vehicle information display, a chime
will sound and the BSI system will be turned
off automatically.
• “Not Available Poor Road Conditions”: When the VDC system (except traction
control system function) or ABS operates.
• “Currently Not Available”: When the VDC system is turned off.
• “Not Available: High Camera Temp”: When the camera detects that the interior
temperature is high (over approximately
104°F [40°C]).
• “Unavailable: Side Radar Obstruction”: When side radar blockage is detected.
Turn off the BSI system and turn it on again
when the above conditions no longer exist.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSI system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will sound
and the warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take:
Stop the vehicle in a safe location, place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position, turn the en-
gine off and restart the engine. If the warning
light (orange) continues to illuminate, have
the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLEWhen radar blockage is detected, the system
will be deactivated automatically. The “Un-available: Side Radar Obstruction” warning
message will appear in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
The systems are not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tempo-
rary 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.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the RCTA
system will also stop working.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
Malfunction
When the RCTA system malfunctions, it will
turn off automatically. The system malfunc-
tion warning message will appear in the ve-

4. CANCEL switch
• If the cruise control system malfunctions, it will cancel automatically. The
indica-
tor in the vehicle information display will
blink to warn the driver.
• If the engine coolant temperature becomes excessively high, the cruise control system

CRUISE CONTROL (if so equipped)
Starting and driving5-75
Page 318 of 542
• If theindicator blinks, turn the Cruise
controlswitch off and have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
• The
indicator may sometimes blink
when the Cruise controlswitch is
turned on while pushing the RES+, SET– or
CANCEL switch. To properly set the cruise
control system, perform the steps below.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driving
under the following conditions:
• When it is not possible to keep the ve-
hicle at a set speed
• In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in
speed
• On winding or hilly roads
• On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
• In very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) with-
out keeping your foot on the accelerator
pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the Cruise
control
switch on. Theindicator in
the vehicle information display will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle
to the desired speed, push the SET– switch
and release it. The
indicator in the ve-
hicle information display will illuminate. Take
your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your ve-
hicle maintains the set speed.
• To pass another vehicle, depress the accel-
erator pedal. When you release the pedal,
the vehicle returns to the previously set
speed.
• The vehicle may not maintain the set speed when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
• Push the CANCEL switch; the
indica-
tor in the vehicle information display goes
out.
• Tap the brake pedal; the
indicator
goes out. • Push the Cruise control
switch off.
Theindicator in the vehicle informa-
tion display go out.
The cruise control is automatically canceled
and the
indicator in the vehicle informa-
tion display goes out if:
• You depress the brake pedal while pushing the RES+ or SET– switch. The preset speed
is deleted from memory.
• The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph (13 km/h) below the set speed.
• You move the shift lever to N (Neutral).
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following three methods:
• Depress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the SET– switch.
• Push and hold the RES+ switch. When the vehicle attains the speed you desire, release
the switch.
• Push and release the RES+ switch. Each time you do this, the set speed increases by
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).

PROPILOT ASSIST SYSTEM
OPERATION1Steering-wheel-mounted control (left)
2Vehicle information display
3Steering-wheel-mounted control (right)
4ProPILOT Assist switch
The ProPILOT Assist system has the follow-
ing two functions:
1. Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
The ICC system can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
• Conventional (fixed speed) cruise control
mode: For cruising at a preset speed
NOTE:Steering assist is not available in the conven-
tional (fixed speed) cruise control mode.
•Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:
The ICC system maintains a selected dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of you within
the speed range of 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144
km/h) up to the set speed. The set speed
can be selected by the driver between 20 to
90 mph (30 to 144 km/h). When the ve-
hicle ahead slows to a stop, your vehicle
gradually decelerates to a standstill. When
the vehicle is stopped, the ICC system
maintains braking force to keep your ve-
hicle stopped.
NOTE:When your vehicle is stopped for less than 3
seconds and the vehicle ahead begins to
move, your vehicle will start moving again
automatically.
LSD2996
Starting and driving5-79
Page 322 of 542
– When your vehicle is at a standstillfor more than 3 seconds and the ve-
hicle ahead begins to accelerate,
push the RES+ switch or lightly de-
press the accelerator pedal. The ICC
system starts to follow the vehicle
ahead.
– When no vehicle is detected ahead within the driver selected distance,
the vehicle travels at the speed set by
the driver. The speed must be above
20 mph (30 km/h) to use this func-
tion.
NOTE:Even if the Forward Emergency Braking
with Pedestrian Detection setting is turned
off by the driver using the “Driver Assis-
tance” menu in the lower display, Forward
Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detec-
tion will be automatically turned on when
ICC is used.
2. Steering Assist
The Steering Assist function controls the
steering system to help keep your vehicle
within the traveling lane.
When there is no vehicle ahead, Steering
Assist is not available at speeds under 37
mph (60 km/h).ProPILOT Assist switches
