new system features
Blind Spot Warning (BSW) and Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI)
(if so equipped)
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system alerts the
driver when another vehicle moves into the vehicle’s
detection zone.

An indicator light located near the outside mirror 1
will illuminate if the radar sensors detect a vehicle
in the detection zone.

The Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI) system can assist the driver in
returning the vehicle to the center of the traveling lane by applying
individual brake pressure to the left or right wheels for a short period\

of time.

The indicator light 2 will first illuminate in orange and then turn green
before extinguishing. This indicates that the Blind Spot Warning (BSW)\

and Blind Spot Intervention
® (BSI) systems are operational.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Automatic Anti-glare Mirrors
The inside rearview mirror and both outside mirrors are designed to auto\
matically change
reflection according to the intensity of the headlights of the vehicle f\
ollowing you.

The anti-glare system will be automatically turned on when the ignition \
switch is in
the ON position.
For more information, refer to the “Pre-driving checks and adjustments (section 3)” of your Owner’s Manual.
Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) (if so equipped)
The Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) system can help alert the dri\
ver of an approaching
vehicle or objects behind the vehicle when backing out of parking spaces\
.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) (if so equipped)
The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system can help alert the driver when\
the vehicle is
traveling too close to either the left or the right side of a traveling \
lane.

The system will operate when the vehicle is driven at speeds of approxim\
ately 45 mph
(70 km/h) and above and only when the lane markings are clearly visibl\
e on the road.

When the vehicle approaches either the left or the right side of the tra\
veling
lane, the LDW system will chime and the orange LDW light
1 on the
instrument panel will blink to alert the driver.

The LDW system can be turned on and off through
the Settings menu in the vehicle information
display. To temporarily turn off the system, push the
warning systems switch
2 .

When the system is off, the indicator light 3 on the
switch is off.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your
Owner’s Manual.
Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) (if so equipped)
The Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) system can help alert \
the driver when
there is sudden braking of the second vehicle traveling in front of the \
vehicle ahead that is
traveling in the same lane.

The PFCW uses a sensor in the front bumper to measure the distance of a \
second vehicle
ahead in the traveling lane. The system operates at speeds above 3 mph (\
5 km/h).

If there is a potential risk, the PFCW will warn the driver with a blink\
ing driver assist
system forward indicator and an audible warning tone will be heard.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) (if so equipped)
The Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) system can assist the driver when \
there is risk of a
forward collision with the vehicle in the traveling lane.

The FEB operates at speeds greater than 3 mph (5 km/h).

If there is a risk of a collision, an audible tone will be heard, a visu\
al warning will display
and the vehicle will push up on the accelerator pedal. If the driver rel\
eases the accelerator
pedal, the vehicle will begin applying the brakes; however, if the drive\
r does nothing, the
system will issue another audible and visual warning and apply the brake\
s harder.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.

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 the 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
2 will extinguish.

When the low tire pressure warning light 2 flashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the
TPMS is not functioning properly. Have the system checked. It is recomme\
nded you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.

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
2 to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, 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 the
“Technical and consumer information” (section 9) of 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.

The light will also illuminate when a malfunction
occurs in the electric motor or hybrid system.

When this light illuminates while driving, immediately stop the vehicle \
in a safe location
and contact an INFINITI retailer.

If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate\
that the Li-ion
battery charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” of your Owner’s Manual.

Hybrid Awareness
Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your \
vehicle while it is ON but
the hybrid system is not running, the hybrid system will automatically s\
tart, informing you
that the vehicle is still ON.

Do not store your INFINITI Intelligent Key within the detection range of\
the vehicle.
This may cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating \
unwanted
battery drain.

The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Ac\
tivation of the
electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full \
battery display does
not indicate the vehicle should be in the electric mode.
For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview (section Hybrid System)” of your Owner’s Manual.
