ACTIVE LANE CONTROL OP-
ERATION
Active Lane Control slightly corrects front
tire angles and steering wheel torque to help
reduce the difference between the vehicle’s
direction and the lane direction
which is
detected by using the camera unitlocated
above the inside mirror.
Active Lane Control operates under the
following conditions:
. When the vehicle is driven at speeds of
approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h) and
above.
. When the Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) system is enabled in the settings menu on the lower display. To turn on
the LDP system, see “Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)/Lane Departure Pre-
vention (LDP)” (P.5-33).
. When Active Lane Control is enabled in
the settings menu on the display.

. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including trans-
parent material) or install an accessory
near the camera unit.
. Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely 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
you contact an INFINITI retailer if the
camera unit is damaged due to an

sunlight under high temperature conditions
(over approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then
started, the LDW system may be deacti-
vated automatically. The “high cabin tem-
perature” warning message will appear in
the vehicle information display.
LDP system: If the vehicle is parked in direct
sunlight under high temperature conditions
(over approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then
the LDP system is turned on, the LDP
system may be deactivated automatically.
The “high cabin temperature” message will
appear in the vehicle information display.
The LDW and LDP systems are not available
until the conditions no longer exist.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the LDW system will resume automatically.
For the LDP system, push the dynamic driver
assistance switch
again to turn the LDP system back on.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the BSW
system could result in serious injury or
death.
. The BSW system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedure and is
not designed to prevent contact with
vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the
direction your vehicle will move to
ensure it is safe to change lanes.
Never rely solely on the BSW system.
. There is a limitation to the detection
capability of the radar. Not every
moving object or vehicle will be
detected. Using the BSW system
under some road, ground, lane mar-
ker, traffic or weather conditions
could lead to improper system opera-
tion. Always rely on your own opera-
tion to avoid accidents.
The BSW system helps alert the driver of
other vehicles in adjacent lanes when chan-
ging lanes.
JVS1122X
The BSW system uses radar sensorsinstalled near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane.
BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) (if
so equipped)

Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the detec-
tion zone shown as illustrated. This detec-
tion zone starts from the outside mirror of
your vehicle and extends approximately 10
ft (3.0 m) behind the rear bumper, and
approximately 10 ft (3.0 m) sideways.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the BSI
system could result in serious injury or
death.
.The BSI system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedures and is
not designed to prevent contact with
vehicles or objects. When changing
lanes, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the
direction your vehicle will move to
ensure it is safe to change lanes.

moving object or vehicle will be
detected. Using the BSI system under
some road, ground, lane marker,
traffic or weather conditions could
lead to improper system operation.
Always rely on your own operation to
avoid accidents.
The BSI system helps alert the driver of other
vehicles in adjacent lanes when changing
lanes, and helps assist the driver to return
the vehicle to the center of the traveling
lane.
JVS1125X
The BSI system uses radar sensorsinstalled near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles in an adjacent lane. In addition
to the radar sensors, the BSI system uses a
camera
installed behind the windshield to
monitor the lane markers of your traveling
lane.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensorsfor 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
temporary 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 area around 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 an INFINITI
retailer if the area around the radar sensors
is damaged due to a collision.

HEADLIGHTS
If replacement is required, it is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of
the exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash.
A temperature difference between the inside
and the outside of the lens causes the fog.
This is not a malfunction. If large drops of
water collect inside the lens, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
