engine INFINITI QX60 2018 Owner's Guide

The rear door alert system functions under
certain conditions to indicate there may be an
object or passenger in the rear seat(s). Check
the seat(s) before exiting the vehicle.
The rear door alert system is initially disabled.
The driver can enable the system using the
vehicle information display. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Vehicle information dis-
play warnings and indicators” in this section.
When the system is enabled:∙ The system is activated when a rear door is opened and closed approximately
10 minutes before the vehicle is started.
When the vehicle is started and the sys-
tem is activated, a visual message ap-
pears in the vehicle information display.
For additional information, refer to “Rear
Door Alert is activated” in this section.
∙ If a rear door is opened and closed but the vehicle is not started within approxi-
mately 10 minutes, the system will not be
activated. A rear door must be opened
and closed and the car started within
10 minutes for the system to activate. When the rear door alert system is activated
and a driver exits the vehicle after arriving at a
destination:
∙ When the driver puts the vehicle in the P (Park) position, a message appears in the
vehicle information display for a driver to
“Dismiss Message” or “Disable Alert” if
desired.
∙ With the system enabled, when the driver exits the vehicle, an audible alert (horn
sound) will occur unless a rear door is
opened and closed within a short time to
deactivate the alert.
∙ If the doors are locked before the alert is deactivated by opening a rear door, the
horn will sound.
∙ If the system is activated but the rear liftgate is opened before opening a rear
door, the horn will be delayed until after
the liftgate is closed.
∙ If the audible horn alert occurs, a mes- sage will also appear in the vehicle infor-
mation display that states, “Check Back
Seat for All Articles”.WARNING
• If the driver selects “Disable Alert”, no au-
dible alert will be provided regardless of
rear door open/close status.
• There may be times when there is an object
or passenger in the rear seat(s) but the au-
dible alert does not sound. For example,
this may occur if the engine is turned off
and then on again in a short period of time
during a trip, or if rear seat passengers en-
ter or exit the vehicle during a trip.
• The system does not directly detect ob-
jects or passengers in the rear seat(s). In-
stead, it can detect when a rear door is
opened and closed, indicating that there
may be something in the rear seat(s).
NOTE:
There may be times when the horn sounds
but there are no objects or passengers in the
rear seat(s).
For additional information, refer to “Rear
Door Alert is activated” in this section.

Warning Systems (if so equipped) are
turned off and will not work.
∙ Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
∙ Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
∙ Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
The warning systems switch is used to turn
on and off the warning systems (Lane Depar-
ture Warning (LDW), Blind Spot Warning
(BSW), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA))
that are activated (if equipped) using the set-
tings menu on the vehicle information display. When the warning systems switch is turned
off, the indicator
1on the switch is off. The
indicator will also be off if the warning sys-
tem is deactivated using the settings menu.
The LDW system warns the driver with a
warning light and chime that the vehicle is
beginning to leave the driving lane.For addi-
tional information, refer to “Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
The BSW system will turn on the side indica-
tor light, located next to the outside mirrors, if
the radar detects a vehicle in the detection
zone. If the turn signal is activated in the
direction of the detected vehicle, a chime
sounds twice and the side indicator light will
flash. For additional information, refer to
“Blind Spot Warning (BSW)” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
The RCTA system can help alert the driver of
an approaching vehicle when the driver is
backing out of a parking space. If the system
detects an approaching vehicle from either
side, the system chimes (once) and the side
BSW/RCTA indicator light flashes on the
side the vehicle is approaching from. For ad-
ditional information, refer to “Rear Cross
Traffic Alert (RCTA)” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual. To use the outlets for devices that require
120v power, place the ignition in the ON
position and push the power inverter switch.
The switch will illuminate when enabled.

CAUTION
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could result in
a discharged battery. The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
∙ Will operate most radio frequency de- vices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
∙ Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No separate batteries are required. If the ve-
hicle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all pro-
gramming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures (Ex-
ample: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” in this section.

WARNING
∙ Do not use the HomeLink® UniversalTransceiver with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became effec-
tive for opener models manufactured
after April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object in
the path of a closing garage door and
then automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
∙ During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will open
and close (if the transmitter is within
range). Make sure that people or objects
are clear of the garage door, gate, etc.
that you are programming.
∙ Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver. Do not breathe ex-
haust gases; they contain colorless and
odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon mon-
oxide is dangerous. It can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
If you have any questions or are having diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink® but-
tons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-
3515.
NOTE:
Place the ignition switch in the ACC position
when programming HomeLink®. It is also
recommended that a new battery be placed
in the hand-held transmitter of the device
being programmed to HomeLink® for
quicker programming and accurate trans-
mission of the radio frequency. 1. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1–3 in (2–8 cm) away from
the HomeLink® surface, keeping the
HomeLink® indicator light
1in view.
