rear view mirror INFINITI JX 2013 Owner's Manual

After the headlights automatically turn off with the
headlight switch in the
orposition,
the headlights will illuminate again if the headlight
switch is moved to the OFF position and then
turned to the
orposition.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
Headlight aiming control
Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle is
traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may di-
rectly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle ahead
or the windshield of the oncoming vehicle. The
light axis can be lowered with the operation of the
switch.
The larger the number designated on the switch,
the lower the axis.
When traveling without a heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright
compared to conventional headlights. If
the xenon headlights hit the rearview mir-
ror of the vehicle ahead or the windshield
of oncoming vehicle, the driver of these
vehicles may have difficulty driving be-
cause of the brightness. Use the headlight
aiming control switch to lower the light
axis. See “Xenon headlights” earlier in
this section for additional information.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT SYSTEM
(Canada only)
The daytime running lights automatically illumi-
nate when the engine is started with the parking
brake released. The daytime running lights oper-
ate with the headlight switch in the OFF position
or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch
to the
position for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the engine is
started, the daytime running lights do not illumi-
nate. The daytime running lights illuminate when
the parking brake is released. The daytime run-
ning lights will remain on until the ignition switch
is placed in the OFF position.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-29

●When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.
● Objects in the rearview will appear visu-
ally opposite than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the lens.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body. ● Red line
1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
● Yellow line
2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
● Green line
3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
● Green line
4: approx. 10 ft (3 m) Vehicle width guide lines
5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines
6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the shift selector is in the R
(Reverse) position and the steering wheel is
turned. The predicted course lines will move de-
pending on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the steer-
ing wheel is in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width of the
predicted course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
WARNING
● Always turn and check that it is safe to
do so before backing up. Always back
up slowly.
● If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
LHA1196
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-31

●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line and predicted course lines
should be used as a reference only
when the vehicle is on a level paved
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may
be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.
● When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are fur-
ther than they appear. When backing up
the vehicle down a hill, objects viewed
in the monitor are closer than they ap-
pear. Use the inside mirror or glance
over your shoulder to properly judge
distances to other objects.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
1. Visually check that the parking space is safe
before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle is displayed on the screen
Awhen the shift selector is
moved to the R (Reverse) position. 3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting the
steering wheel so that the predicted course
lines
Benter the parking spaceC.

WARNING
●The Around View Monitor is a conve-
nience feature. It is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed.
Always look out the windows and check
to be sure that it is safe to move.
● The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
● Do not use the Around View Monitor
with the outside mirror in the stored
position, and make sure that the liftgate
is securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View Monitor.
● The distance between objects viewed
on the Around View Monitor differs
from the actual distance.
● The cameras are installed on the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the
rear license plate. Do not put anything
on the cameras.
● When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock. ●
Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
AVAILABLE VIEWS
WARNING
●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a refer-
ence only when the vehicle is on a
paved, level surface. The distance
viewed on the monitor may be different
than the actual distance between the
vehicle and displayed objects.
● Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the
bird-eye view are greatly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road condition and road
grade. ●
If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.
● When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
● Objects in the rearview will appear visu-
ally opposite than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course lines and the actual
course line.
● The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
● The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width
and course.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-37

Bird-eye view
The bird-eye view shows the overhead view of
the vehicle, which helps confirm the vehicle po-
sition and the predicted course to a parking
space.
The vehicle icon
1shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the size of the vehicle icon on
the bird-eye view may differ somewhat from the
actual vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
2are
indicated in black.
The non-viewable area
2is highlighted in yellow
for several seconds after the bird-eye view is displayed. It will be shown only the first time after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
When the corner of the vehicle moves closer to
an object, the corner sonar indicators
3ap-
pears. When the center of the vehicle moves
close to an object, the center sonar indicator
4
appears (if so equipped) .
The driver can check the direction and angle of
the tire on the display by tire icon
5when driving
the vehicle forward or backward.
Predictive course lines (
6and7) indicate the
predictive course when operating the vehicle.
The predictive course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the steering wheel is turned.
The predictive course lines will move depending
on how much the steering wheel is turned and
will not be displayed while the steering wheel is in
the neutral position.
When the monitor displays the front view and the
steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less
from the neutral position, the two green predic-
tive course lines
6are shown in front of the
vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees
or more, one green predictive course lines is
shown in front of the vehicle and other green
predictive course lines
7is shown at side of the
vehicle. When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predictive course lines are shown at back of the
vehicle.
WARNING
●
Objects in the bird-eye view will appear
further than the actual distance be-
cause the bird-eye view is a pseudo
view that is processed by combining the
views from the cameras on the outside
mirrors, the front and the rear of the
vehicle.
● Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
● Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
● The view of the bird-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters.
● A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment
will increase as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
● Tire angle display does not indicate the
actual tire angle.

The extensions
3of both the front1and side
2lines are shown with a green dotted line.
The corner sonar indicator will appear when a
corner of the vehicle moves closer to an object.
CAUTION
The turn signal light may look like the
side-of-vehicle line. This is not a
malfunction.
Front-wide and rear-wide view
The front-wide and rear-wide view shows a wider
area on the entire screen and allows the checking
of the blind corners on right and left sides. The
rear-wide view displays an approximately 180-
degree area while the front-view and rearview
display an approximately 150-degree area. The
predictive course lines are not displayed on the
front-wide and rear-wide view.

MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
(MOD)
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system can
inform the driver of the moving objects surround-
ing the vehicle when driving out of garages, ma-
neuvering into parking lots and in other such
instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the image
shown in the display.
The MOD system operates in the following con-
ditions when the camera view is displayed: ●
When the shift selector is in the P or N
position and the vehicle is stopped, the
MOD system detects the moving objects in
the bird-eye view. The MOD system will not
operate if the outside mirror is moving in or
out or if either door is opened.
● When the shift selector is in the D position
and the vehicle speed is below approxi-
mately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system
detects moving objects in the front view or
front-wide view.
● When the shift selector is in the R position
and the vehicle speed is below approxi-
mately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system
detects moving objects in the rearview or
rear-wide view. The MOD system will not
operate if the liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving ob-
jects in the front-side view. The MOD icon is not
displayed on the screen when in this view.
