    For information regarding how to access additional viewing cycles, pleas\
e see your  
Owner’s Manual.
 
   
The colored guide lines on the display screen indicate vehicle width and\
 approximate 
distances to objects with reference to the vehicle body line.
    •  Red 1.5 ft (0.5 m); Yellow 3 ft (1 m); Green 7 ft (2 m) and 10 ft \
(3 m).
 
    There are some areas where the system will not  
show objects.
    •  When in the front or the rear view display, an  
object below the bumper or on the ground may  
not be viewed
 
2. 
    •  When in the bird’s-eye view, a tall object near the  
seam of the camera viewing areas
 
3 will not  
appear in the monitor.
 
    The distance between objects viewed on the AVM  
differs from the actual distance.
 
    Objects in the bird’s-eye view will appear further than  
the actual distance.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION (MOD)
 
   
If the MOD system detects moving objects surrounding 
 
the vehicle, a yellow frame  1 will be displayed on 
 
the camera image and a chime will sound.
 
   
In the bird’s-eye view, a yellow frame is displayed on 
 
those camera images (front, rear, right, left) where  
moving objects are detected.
 
  When the following are displayed:
    •  Blue  MOD icon
 
2: the system is operative in this view.
    •  Gray  MOD icon
 
3: the system is not operative in this view.
    •  No  MOD icon: the system is off. The indicator will also be off if all of the w\
arning systems 
are deactivated using the camera settings menu.
 
  To temporarily turn the system on or off, touch the
 4 key.
For more information, refer to the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems (secti\

(if so equipped)
    This system will help you return the vehicle to

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
   A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message will 
appear in the vehicle information display
 
1 and 
the low tire pressure warning light  2 will illuminate 
when one or more tires are low in pressure and air 
is needed.
    •  The tire pressures should be checked when the tires  
are cold. The tires are considered cold after the  
vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or  
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
 
   After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 \
MPH (25 km/h). The 
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning message and low tire pressure warning light will extinguish.
 
   When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then r\
emains on, the 
TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by an INFINITI\
 retailer.
 
   Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicl\
e’s operation and 
the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperatu\
re of the air 
inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This m\
ay cause the low 
tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illumina\
tes, check the tire 
pressure in your tires.
    •  Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always pr\
ior to long   
distance trips.
 
   The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Pl\
ease refer to 
“Technical and consumer information (section 9)”, in your Owner’\
s Manual for the location 
of the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the  
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
