It will not operate if reverse gear is engaged or
if the interior lighting is switched on.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS

that it automatically dims according to the in-
tensity of the headlights of the vehicle follow-
ing you. The automatic anti-glare feature op-
erates only when the ignition switch is in the
ON position. It will not operate if reverse gear
is engaged or if the interior lighting is switched

HOW TO PARK WITH
PREDICTED COURSE LINES
WARNING
•If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course line may
not be displayed correctly.
•On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
•The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rear view
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
•If the battery is disconnected or be-
comes discharged, the predicted course
lines may be displayed incorrectly. If this
occurs, please perform the following
procedures:
–Turn the steering wheel from lock to
lock while the engine is running.
–Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes.

•Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
•Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.
•Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite than when
viewed in the rear view and outside mir-
rors.
•Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the num-
ber of occupants, fuel level, vehicle posi-
tion, road conditions and road grade.
•Make sure that the lift gate is securely
closed when backing up.
•Do not put anything on the rear view
camera. The rear view camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
•When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
•Do not strike the camera. It is a precision
instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunc-
tion or cause damage resulting in a fire
or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
•When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.
•When strong light shines directly on to the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
•Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper.
•The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
•The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.
•Objects on the monitor may not be clear in
a dark environment.
•Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water.

Available views
WARNING
•The distance guide lines and the vehicle
width lines should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved, level
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.
•Use the displayed lines and the bird's-
eye view as a reference. The lines and the
bird's-eye view are greatly affected by
the number of occupants, fuel level, ve-
hicle position, road condition and road
grade.
•When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are farther
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
•Objects in the monitor will appear visu-
ally opposite compared to when viewed
in the rear view and outside mirrors.
•Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
•The distance between objects viewed in
the rear view differs from actual dis-
tance because a wide-angle lens is used.
•The displayed lines on the rear view will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rear view camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their locations
on the ground are for approximate reference
only. Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces or
projecting objects will be actually located at
distances different from those displayed in
the monitor relative to the guidelines (refer to
illustrations). When in doubt, turn around and
view the objects as you are backing up, or
park and exit the vehicle to view the position-
ing of objects behind the vehicle.

•The cameras are installed on the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the
rear license plate. Do not put anything
on the cameras.
•When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
•Do not strike the cameras. They are pre-
cision instruments. Doing so could cause
a malfunction or cause damage resulting
in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
•There may be a delay when switching be-
tween views.
•When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly.
•When strong light is directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
•The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
•The colors of objects on the Around
View® Monitor may differ somewhat
from the actual color of objects.
•Objects on the monitor may not be clear
and the color of the object may differ in a
dark environment.
•There may be differences in sharpness be-
tween each camera view of the bird’s-eye
view.
•Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth that has
been dampened with a diluted mild clean-
ing agent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
There are some areas where the system will not
show objects and the system does not warn of
moving objects. When in the front or the rear
view display, an object below the bumper or on
the ground may not be viewed
1. When in the
bird's-eye view, a tall object near the seam

–When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is pres-
ent.
–When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when mirror is
folded.
–When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
–When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
•The MOD system might detect some-
thing like flowing water droplets on the
camera lens, white smoke from the muf-
fler, moving shadows, etc.
•The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
•If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered and the MOD sys-
tem may not detect objects properly.
•When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display ob-
jects clearly. This is not a malfunction.
MOD MALFUNCTION
The blue MOD icon will change to orange if
one of the following has occurred
•When the system is malfunctioning.
•When the component temperature
reaches a high level (icon will blink).
If the icon light continues to illuminate or-
ange, have the MOD system checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
•Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the cameras. This will cause discol-
oration. To clean the cameras, wipe with
a cloth dampened with diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry
cloth.
•Do not damage the cameras as the moni-
tor screen may be adversely affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of the
cameras
1, the MOD system may not oper-
ate properly. Clean the cameras by wiping
with a cloth dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wiping with a dry
cloth.
