turn the switch ON again to operate the wiper.The rear window wiper and washer operate
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Turn the switch clockwise from the OFF position
to operate the wiper.

DEFROSTER/WINDSHIELD DEICER (if so
equipped) SWITCH
Instruments and controls2-35

WINDSHIELD DEICER (if so equipped)
The windshield deicer switch (rear window and
outside mirror defroster switch) operates when
the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The deicer is used to remove ice from the
windshield when a wiper is frozen to the wind-
shield.
When the switch
1is pushed, the indicator
light
2illuminates and the deicer operates for
approximately 15 minutes. The rear window
defroster will activate at the same time. After
the preset time has passed, the deicer will turn
off automatically. To turn off the deicer manu-
ally, push the deicer switch again, and the
indicator light turns off.
CAUTION
● When operating the deicer continuously, be
sure to start the engine. Otherwise, it may
cause the battery to discharge.
● When cleaning the inner side of the window,
be careful not to scratch or damage the elec-
trical conductors on the surface of the
window.
XENON HEADLIGHTS
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
● When xenon headlights are on, they produce
a high voltage. To prevent an electric shock,
never attempt to modify or disassemble. Al-
ways have your xenon headlights replaced
at an INFINITI retailer.
● Xenon headlights provide considerably
more light than conventional headlights. If
they are not correctly aimed, they might
temporarily blind an oncoming driver or the
driver ahead of you and cause a serious acci-
dent. If headlights are not aimed correctly,
immediately take your vehicle to an INFINITI
retailer and have the headlights adjusted
correctly.
HEADLIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL SWITCH
2-36Instruments and controls

Battery saver system
A chime will sound when the driver side door is
opened with the light switch in theorposition and the ignition switch in the
OFF or LOCK position.
When the headlight switch is in the
orposition while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automatically
turn off 5 minutes after the ignition switch has
been pushed to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in the
orposition after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will turn on when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON posi-
tion.
CAUTION
● When you turn on the headlight switch again
after the lights automatically turn off, the
lights will not turn off automatically. Be sure
to turn the light switch to the OFF position
when you leave the vehicle for extended pe-
riods of time, otherwise the battery will be
discharged.
● Never leave the light switch on when the
engine is not running for extended periods of
time even if the headlights turn off
automatically.
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
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
directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of the oncoming ve-
hicle. 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 with no heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright com-
pared to conventional headlights. If the xenon
headlights hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of oncoming vehicle,
the driver of these vehicles may have difficulty
driving because 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 park-
ing brake released. The daytime running lights
operate with the headlight switch in the OFF
position or in the
position. Turn the
headlight switch to theposition for full
illumination when driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the engine
is started, the daytime running lights do not
illuminate. The daytime running lights illumi-
nate once the parking brake is released. The
daytime running lights will remain on until the
ignition switch is pushed to the OFF position.

The BSW system will illuminate the BSW indi-
cator lights, located next to the outside mirrors,
when the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone. If the turn signal is activated in
the direction of the detected vehicle, a chime
sounds twice and the BSW indicator light will
flash. (See “BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) SYS-
TEM” in the “5. Starting and driving” section.)
The FCW system will sound a warning chime
and the vehicle ahead detection indicator light
blinks to alert the driver if the vehicle is travel-
ing close to the vehicle ahead. (See “FORWARD
COLLISION WARNING (FCW) SYSTEM” in the “5.
Starting and driving” section.)
The warning systems switch is automatically
turned on when the engine is started, and the
warning systems ON indicator
1on the switch
illuminates.
To cancel the warning systems, push the warn-
ing systems switch to turn off the system. The
warning systems ON indicator will turn off. NOTE:
If you continue to push the warning systems
switch from off to on for over 4 seconds, a chime
will sound. This will change the default status of
the LDW, BSW and FCW systems to OFF so that
these systems will not automatically turn on
when the engine is started. If this procedure is
repeated, the default status will return to ON.
The warning systems switch is used to turn on
and off the warning systems (Forward Collision
Warning (FCW), Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
and Blind Spot Warning (BSW) systems) that are
activated using the settings menu on the center
display.
When the warning systems switch is turned off,
the indicator
1on the switch is off. The
indicator will also be off if all of the warning
systems are deactivated using the settings
menu.
