Freeway mode
Freeway mode adjusts the light beam to re-
duce the amount of light that shines on the
opposite lane of the freeway, and oncoming
traffic.
Freeway mode is active if you are driving at a
speed above 68 MPH (110 km/h) and do not
make any large steering movements for at
least 3300 ft (1000 m) or if you are driving at
a speed above 81 MPH (130 km/h).
It is not active if you are driving at speeds
below 50 MPH (80 km/h) following activa-
tion.
HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED
HEADLIGHT ONLY)
You can use this function to set the head-
lights to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlights from high beam to
low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low
beam headlight range depending on the dis-
tance to the other vehicle. Once the system
no longer detects any other vehicles, it
switches on the high beam headlights again.
The system's optical sensor is located behind
the windshield near the overhead control
panel.
WARNING
•The high beam assist system is a conve-
nience but is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driv-
ing practices and switch the high beams
and low beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the follow-
ing conditions. Switch the high beam
and low beam manually. – During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
– When a light source similar to a head-
light or tail light is in the vicinity of
the vehicle.
– When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials
on the lights, or when the light beam
is out of position.
– When there is a sudden, continuous
change in brightness.
– When driving on a road that passes
over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
– When driving on a road with many
curves.

ately before the closed position which can-
not be detected. Make sure that all passen-
gers have their hands, etc., inside the
vehicle before closing the window.
If the vehicle's battery is disconnected, re-
placed, or jump started, the power window
auto-reverse function may not operate prop-
erly. If this occurs, it is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer to re-initialize the power
window auto-reverse system.

The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, inte-
grated in the vehicle's inside rear view mirror,
provides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
•Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
•Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the ve-
hicle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all pro-
gramming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures (Ex-
ample: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to "Programming
HomeLink® " later in this section.
WARNING
•Do not use the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came effective for opener models manu-
factured after April 1, 1982). A garage
door opener which cannot detect an ob-
ject in the path of a closing garage door
and then automatically stop and re-
verse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death.
•During the programming procedure
your garage door or security gate will
open and close (if the transmitter is
within range). Make sure that people or
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.
•Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver. NOTE
Certain garage door drives are incompatible
with the integrated garage door opener. If
you have difficulty programing the inte-
grated garage door opener, it is recom-
mended you contact your INFINITI retailer.
