Precautions on LDP systemY51D-V-E01-AA7B1886-AED0-4152-91F5-D6A9157BE770
WARNING
.
The LDP system will not steer the vehicle
or prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of vehicle at all
times.
. The LDP system is primarily intended for
use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers
in certain roads, weather or driving
conditions.
. Using the LDP system under some
conditions of road, lane marker or
weather, or when you change lanes
without using the lane change signal
could lead to an unexpected system
operation. In such conditions, you need
to correct the vehicle’s direction with
your steering operation to avoid acci-
dents.

5-28Starting and driving
.When the LDP system is operating, avoid
excessive or sudden steering maneu-
vers. Otherwise, you could lose control
of the vehicle.
. The LDP system will not operate at
speeds below approximately 45 MPH
(70 km/h) or if it cannot detect lane
markers.
. Do not use the LDP system under the
following conditions as it may not
function properly:
—During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, 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 ortemporary lane.
—When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
—When driving without normal tireconditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of spare tire, tire chains, non-standard
wheels).
—When the vehicle is equipped with
non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
. If the LDP system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically. The LDW light
(orange) on the instrument panel will
illuminate.
. If the LDW light (orange) illuminates,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle. Turn the engine off and
restart the engine. If the LDW light
(orange) continues to illuminate, have
the LDP system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
. Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
The functions of the LDP system (warning
and system application of the brakes) may
or may not operate properly under the
following conditions:
.On roads where there are multiple
parallel lane markers; lane markers
that are faded or not painted clearly;
yellow painted lane markers; non-stan- dard lane markers; lane markers cov-
ered 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 shadows,
snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or lines
remaining after road repairs. (The LDP
system could detect these items as
lane markers.)
. On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
. When the vehicle’s traveling direction
does not align with the lane marker.
. When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
. When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres
to the windshield in front of the lane
camera unit.
. When the headlights are not bright due
to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
. When strong light enters the lane
camera unit. (For example, the light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
Condition:

.When a sudden change in brightness
occurs. (For example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or under a
bridge.)
While the LDP system is operating, you
may hear a sound of brake operation. This
is normal and indicates that the LDP
system is operating properly.

LDP system operationY51D-V-E01-D11B0416-778F-476C-9CAA-E313B05913FEThe LDP system provides a lane departure
warning and can automatically apply the
brakes when the vehicle is driven at
speeds of approximately 45 MPH (70
km/h) and above. When the vehicle
approaches either the left or the right side
of the traveling lane, a warning chime will
sound and the LDW light (orange) on the
instrument panel will blink to alert the
driver. Then, the LDP system will automa-
tically apply the brakes for a short period
of time to help assist the driver to return
the vehicle to the center of the traveling lane.
The warning and assist functions will stop
when the vehicle returns to a position
inside of the lane marker.

LANE CAMERA UNIT MAINTENANCEY51D-V-E01-1AE0B264-9E99-4E16-A13F-E0CF9B775F22The lane camera unit*1for the LDW/LDP
system is located above the inside mirror.
To keep the proper operation of the LDW/
LDP systems and prevent a system mal-
function, be sure to observe the following:
. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including
transparent 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 adversely affect the cam- era unit’s capability of detecting the
lane markers.

Y51D-V-E01-AE691347-2F2F-4CF9-A4BB-8C5C984C5366The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind
Spot Intervention (BSI) systems can help
alert the driver of other vehicles in
adjacent lanes when changing lanes.
SSD1027
The BSW system uses radar sensors*1
installed near the rear bumper to detect
other vehicles beside your vehicle in an
adjacent lane. In addition to the radar
sensors, the BSI system uses a camera
*2
installed behind the windshield to monitor
the lane markers of your traveling lane.
SSD1030
Detection zone
The radar sensors can detect vehicles on
either side of your vehicle within the
detection zone shown as illustrated. This
detection zone starts from the outside
mirror of your vehicle and extends approxi-
mately 10 ft (3.0 m) behind the rear
bumper, and approximately 10 ft (3.0 m)
sideways.
The BSW system operates above approxi-
mately 20 MPH (32 km/h). If the radar
sensors detects vehicles in the detection
zone, the BSW/BSI indicator light illumi-
nates. If the driver then activates the turn
signal, a chime will sound twice and the
BSW/BSI indicator light will flash.

5-34Starting and driving
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h). If the system
detects a vehicle in the detection zone and
your vehicle is approaching the lane
marker, the BSI system provides an audi-
ble warning (three times), flashes the
BSW/BSI indicator light and slightly ap-
plies the brakes for a short period of time
on one side to help return the vehicle back
to the traveling lane. The BSI system
provides an audible warning and turns on
or flashes the BSW/BSI indicator light even
if the BSW system is off.
WARNING
.The BSW and BSI systems are not a
replacement for proper driving procedure
and are 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 direc-
tion you will move to ensure it is safe to
change lanes. Never rely solely on the
BSW or BSI system.
. Using the BSI system under some road,
lane marker or weather conditions could
lead to improper system operation. Al-
ways rely on your own steering and braking operation to avoid accidents.
. The BSW and BSI systems may not
provide a warning or brake control for
vehicles that pass through the detection
zone quickly.

BSW/BSI indicator light
BSW SYSTEM OPERATIONY51D-V-E01-32E603AE-BDF4-490E-B5AC-9FF1A64159F4If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the BSW/BSI indicator
light located by the outside mirrors illumi-
nates. If the turn signal is then activated,
the BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and a
chime sounds twice. The indicator light
continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
The BSW/BSI indicator lights illuminate for
a few seconds when the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position.
The brightness of the BSW/BSI indicator
lights is adjusted automatically depending

on the brightness of the ambient light.
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver
activates the turn signal. If a vehicle comes
into the detection zone after the driver
activates the turn signal, then only the
BSW/BSI indicator light flashes and no
chime sounds. (See“BSW/BSI driving
situations” (P.5-40).)
