The battery of the iPod will be charged while the
device is connected to the vehicle if the iPod
supports USB connection charging.
Depending on the model and firmware version
of the iPod, the display on the iPod shows an
INFINITI or Accessory Attached screen when the
connection is completed. When the iPod is
connected to the vehicle, the iPod music library
can only be operated using the vehicle audio
controls.

WARNING
•Only use a phone after stopping your ve-
hicle in a safe location. If you have to use a
phone while driving, exercise extreme cau-
tion at all times so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
•If you find yourself unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation while talking
on the phone, pull off the road in a safe
location and stop your vehicle before doing
so.
CAUTION
To avoid draining the vehicle battery, only use
a phone after starting the engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Bluetooth®
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an owner
of a compatible Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phone, you can set up the wireless connection
between your cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module. With Bluetooth® wireless tech-
nology, you can make or receive a telephone
call with your cellular phone in your pocket.
Once a cellular phone is connected to the
in-vehicle phone module, the procedure for
connecting the phone does not need to beperformed again. Your phone is automatically
selected by the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is switched to the ON posi-
tion with the selected cellular phone turned on
and carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Bluetooth®
cellular phones to the in-vehicle phone module.
However, you can talk on only one cellular
phone at a time.
The Voice Recognition system supports phone
commands, so dialing a phone number using
your voice is possible.
SeeINFINITI Voice Recognition systemlater in
this section
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
•Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth® and wire-
less LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disrupt communications and
could cause undesired noise. It is recom-
mended that you turn wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) off
when using the Bluetooth® functions.
•Set up the wireless connection between a
compatible cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the Bluetooth®
Hands-Free Phone System.
•Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle
phone module. Please visit
www.infinitiusa.com/bluetooth and search
for a recommended phone list.
•You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside the service area
for your cellular phone network.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is
difficult to receive radio waves, such as in
a tunnel, in an underground parking ga-
rage, behind a tall building or in a moun-
tainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked in order to
prevent dialing.
•When the radio wave condition is not ideal
or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice
during a call.
•This Bluetooth® system supports Wideband
speech, which enhances the sound quality of
phone calls placed over Bluetooth®. To take
advantage of this feature, the cellular device
should be used on a carrier supporting Adap-
tive Multi-Rate Wideband (AMR-WB) or HD
voice technology. The performance of
AMR-WB may vary by carrier and calling area.
Consult your cellular carrier if you experience
issues with call quality or connection.

•Immediately after the ignition switch is
turned ON, it may be impossible to receive a
call for a short period of time.
•Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the
in-vehicle phone module to prevent tone
quality degradation and wireless connection
disruption.
•While a cellular phone is connected through
the Bluetooth® wireless connection, the bat-
tery of the cellular phone may discharge
quicker than usual.
•If the Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System
seems to be malfunctioning, please visit
www.infinitiusa.com/bluetooth for trouble-
shooting help.
•Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to be
emitted from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location may
reduce or eliminate the noise.
•Refer to the owner’s manual for the cellular
phone for information regarding the telephone
pairing procedure specific to your phone, bat-
tery charging, and cellular phone antenna, etc.
•The antenna display on the monitor may not
match the antenna display of some cellular
phones.
•The battery display on the monitor may not
match the battery display of some cellular
phones.
•Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to hear the caller’s voice clearly as
well as to minimize echoes.
•If reception between callers is unclear,
adjusting the incoming or outgoing call vol-
ume may improve the clarity.

Each volume level (ring tone, incoming voice or
outgoing voice) is different.Each volume level is not adjusted properly. Adjust each volume level properly.
The antenna display is different between the
navigation screen (if equipped) and the screen
on a cellular phone. Making or receiving a call
is unavailable even though the antenna display
indicates that it is possible to do so.The antenna display varies depending on the model
of cellular phone.This does not indicate a malfunction. The antenna display
and remaining battery level shown on the navigation
screen may be different from those shown on the cellular
phone screen. Use them as a reference.
A voice cannot be heard clearly when using a
cellular phone behind tall buildings.Some structures such as tall buildings, etc. may
cause irregular reflection of radio waves or completely
shut out radio waves that are used for cellular
phones.This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard when using a cellular phone
under/near areas of elevated railroads, high
voltage electric power cables, traffic signals, or
neon billboards, etc.Electromagnetic waves that are generated from radio
devices may adversely affect the cellular phone.This is not a malfunction.

The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered
key, it may be due to interference caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automated payment device on the key
ring. Restart the engine using the following
procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK
position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat Step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered key on a
separate key ring to avoid interference from
other devices.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
Starting and driving5-15

NOTE
Care should be taken to avoid situations that can
lead to potential battery discharge and potential
no-start conditions such as:
•Installation or extended use of electronic
accessories that consume battery power
when the engine is not running (Phone char-
gers, GPS, DVD players, etc.)
•Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or only
driven short distances. In these cases, the
battery may need to be charged to maintain
battery health.
DRIVING WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION
Driving precautions
•Do not depress the accelerator pedal while
shifting from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to R (Re-
verse), D (Drive), or M (Manual shift mode).
Always depress the brake pedal until shifting
is completed. Failure to do so could cause you
to lose control and have an accident.
•Cold engine idle speed is high, so use caution
when shifting into a forward or reverse gear
before the engine has warmed up.
•Never shift to either the P (Park) or R (Re-
verse) position while the vehicle is moving
forward and P (Park) or D (Drive) position
while the vehicle is reversing. This could
cause an accident or damage the transmis-
sion.
•Except in an emergency, do not shift to the N
(Neutral) position while driving. Coasting
with the transmission in the N (Neutral) posi-
tion may cause serious damage to the trans-
mission.
WARNING
•Do not downshift abruptly on slippery
roads. this may cause a loss of control.
CAUTION
•To avoid possible damage to your vehicle;
when stopping the vehicle on an uphill
grade, do not hold the vehicle by depress-
ing the accelerator pedal. The foot brake
should be used for this purpose.
•Except in an emergency, do not shift to the
N (Neutral) position while driving. Coasting
with the transmission in the N (Neutral) po-
sition may cause serious damage to the
transmission.
