NOTE:
• BSI warning and system application willonly be activated if the side indicator light
is already illuminated when your vehicle
approaches a lane marker. If another ve-
hicle comes into the detection zone after
your vehicle has crossed a lane marker, no
BSI warning or system application will be
activated. For additional information, see
“BSI driving situations” (P. 5-66).
• The BSI system is typically activated ear- lier than the Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) system when your vehicle is ap-
proaching a lane marker.
To turn on the BSI system, push the ProPI-
LOT Assist switch on the steering wheel af-
ter starting the engine. The BSI indicator will
illuminate. Push the ProPILOT Assist switch
again to turn off the BSI system. The BSI
indicator will turn off.

NOTE:
Turning on the ProPILOT Assist system will
turn on the BSI and LDP system at the same
time. For additional information, see “ Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP)” (P. 5-43).
Turning the BSW system off will deactivate
the BSI system at the same time.
BSI SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the BSI system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations 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.
– Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop. For additional information, see
“BSI driving situations” (P. 5-66).
– Oncoming vehicles.
– A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.
– A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind.
– A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly. –
A vehicle that passes through the de-
tection zone quickly.
• The radar sensors’ detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an ad-
jacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
• The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects; however, ob-
jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage
and parked vehicles may occasionally be
detected. This is a normal operation
condition.
• The following conditions may reduce the
ability of the radar to detect other ve-
hicles:
– Severe weather
– Road spray
– Ice/frost/dirt build-up on the vehicle
• Do not attach stickers (including trans-
parent material), install accessories or
apply additional paint near the radar
sensors. These conditions may reduce
the ability of the radar to detect other
vehicles.

•The camera may not detect lane markers
in the following situations and the BSI
system may not operate properly.
– 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; lane markers
covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
– On roads where discontinued lane
markers are still detectable.
– On roads where there are sharp
curves.
– On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as shad-
ows, snow, water, wheel ruts, seams
or lines remaining after road repairs.
– On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
– When the vehicle’s traveling direction
does not align with the lane markers.
– When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
– When rain, snow or dirt adheres to
the windshield in front of a lane cam-
era unit. –
When the headlights are not bright
due to dirt on the lens or if aiming is
not adjusted properly.
– When strong light enters a lane cam-
era unit. (For example: light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at
sunrise or sunset.)
– When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example: when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or under
a bridge.)
• Do not use the BSI system under the fol-
lowing conditions because the system
may not function properly.
– During bad weather (for example:
rain, fog, snow, 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 or tem-
porary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane
width is too narrow. –
When driving with a tire that is not
within normal tire conditions (e.g.,
tire wear, low tire pressure, installa-
tion of spare tire, tire chains, non-
standard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When towing a trailer or other
vehicle.
• Excessive noise (e.g., audio system vol-
ume, open vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsO1for the BSI system
are located near the rear bumper. Always
keep the area near the radar sensors clean.
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.
Check for and remove objects obstructing
the radar sensors. Do not attach stickers (including transparent
material), install accessories or apply addi-
tional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around the
radar sensors.
It is recommended you visit a certified
INFINITI retailer if the area around the radar
sensors is damaged due to a collision.
The lane camera unit
O2for BSI system is
located above the inside mirror. To keep the
proper operation of BSI and prevent a system
malfunction, be sure to observe the
following:
• Always keep the windshield clean.
• Do not attach a sticker (including transpar- ent material) or install an accessory near
the camera unit.
• Do not place reflective materials, such as white paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability
of detecting the lane markers.
• Do not strike or damage the areas around the camera unit. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove the screw located on the
camera unit. It is recommended that you
contact a certified INFINITI retailer if the
