Overriding the system:
The following driver’s operations override the
system operation:∙ When the driver depresses the accelera- tor pedal even further while the system is
moving the accelerator pedal upward,
the DCA system control of the accelera-
tor pedal is canceled.
∙ When the driver’s foot is on the accelera- tor pedal, the brake control by the system
is not operated.
∙ When the driver’s foot is on the brake pedal, neither the brake control nor the
alert by the system operates.
∙ When the ICC system is set, the DCA system will be canceled.Approach warning
If your vehicle comes closer to the vehicle
ahead due to rapid deceleration of that ve-
hicle or if another vehicle cuts in, the system
warns the driver with the chime and DCA
system display. Decelerate by depressing the
brake pedal to maintain a safe vehicle dis-
tance if:
∙ The chime sounds.
∙ The vehicle ahead detection indicator blinks.
The warning chime may not sound in some
cases when there is a short distance between
vehicles. Some examples are: ∙ When the vehicles are traveling at the same speed and the distance between
vehicles is not changing
∙ When the vehicle ahead is traveling faster and the distance between vehicles
is increasing
∙ When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle
The warning chime will not sound when your
vehicle approaches vehicles that are parked
or moving slowly. NOTE:
The approach warning chime may sound and
the system display may blink when the radar
sensor detects objects on the side of the
road. This may cause the DCA system to de-
celerate or accelerate the vehicle. The radar
sensor may detect these objects when the
vehicle is driven on winding roads, narrow
roads, hilly roads or when entering or exiting
a curve. In these cases you will have to manu-
ally control the proper distance ahead of
your vehicle.
Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected by
vehicle operation (steering maneuver or driv-
ing position in the lane) or traffic or vehicle
condition (for example, if a vehicle is being
driven with some damage).

HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE THE
DCA SYSTEM
To turn on the DCA system, push the dynamic
driver assistance switch (for models without
ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for models with ProPILOT Assist) on
the steering wheel after starting the engine.
The DCA system switch indicator light in the
vehicle information display will illuminate.
Push the dynamic driver assistance switch
(for models without ProPILOT Assist) or the
ProPILOT Assist switch (for models with
ProPILOT Assist) on the steering wheel again
to turn off the DCA system. The DCA system
switch indicator light will turn off.
The system will start to operate after the
vehicle speed becomes above approximately
3 mph (5 km/h).
The dynamic driver assistance switch (for
models without ProPILOT Assist) or the Pro-
PILOT Assist switch (for models with ProPI-
LOT Assist) on the steering wheel is used for
the LDP, DCA and BSI systems. When the
dynamic driver assistance switch (for models
without ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT
Assist switch (for models with ProPILOT As-
sist) on the steering wheel is pushed, the LDP
system will also turn on or off simultaneously.
The DCA system can be individually set to on

or off on the display. If the system is set to
off, the system will not turn on even if the
dynamic driver assistance switch (for models
without ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT
Assist switch (for models with ProPILOT As-
sist) on the steering wheel is pushed to on.
For additional information, refer to “Setting
DCA system to ON/OFF” in this section.
Setting DCA system to ON/OFF:
The DCA can be turned on/off in the lower
display.1. Press the MENU button below the lower display screen.
2. Select “Driver Assistance.”
3. Select “Forward Assist.”
4. Select “ON” to turn the “Distance Con- trol Assist” system on or off.
If the LDP, BSI and DCA systems are set to
off in the lower display and the dynamic
driver assistance switch (for models without
ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for models with ProPILOT Assist) on
the steering wheel is pushed, the LDP indica-
tor light, BSI ON indicator light, and the DCA
system switch indicator light will blink for
approximately 2 seconds. For additional information on LDP and BSI,
refer to “Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)”
and “Blind Spot Intervention® (BSI)” in this
section.
DCA system display and indicators
The display is located between the speedom-
eter and tachometer.
1. DCA system switch indicator (green): Indicates that the dynamic driver assis-
tance switch (for models without ProPI-
LOT Assist) or the ProPILOT Assist
switch (for models with ProPILOT As-
sist) on the steering wheel is on.
2. DCA system warning light (orange): The light comes on if there is a malfunc-
tion in the DCA system.

∙ When the VDC system is off (To use theDCA system, turn on the VDC, then push
the dynamic driver assistance switch [for
models without ProPILOT Assist] or the
ProPILOT Assist switch [for models with
ProPILOT Assist] on the steering wheel.)
For additional information about the
VDC system, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” in this section.
∙ When ABS or VDC (including the TCS) is operating
∙ When the radar signal is temporarily in- terrupted
Action to take:
When the conditions listed above are no lon-
ger present, turn the system off with the
dynamic driver assistance switch (for models
without ProPILOT Assist) or the ProPILOT
Assist switch (for models with ProPILOT As-
sist) on the steering wheel. Turn the DCA
system back on to use the system. Condition B:
When the radar sensor area is covered with
dirt or is obstructed, making it impossible to
detect a vehicle ahead, the DCA system is
automatically canceled.
The chime sounds and the DCA system
warning light (orange) will come on and the
“Unavailable: Front Radar Blocked” warning
will appear.
Action to take:
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle
in a safe place, press the park button to place
the vehicle in the P (Park) position and turnthe engine off. When the radar signal is tem-
porarily interrupted, clean the sensor area
and restart the engine. If the “Unavailable:
Front Radar Blocked” warning continues to
be displayed, have the DCA system checked.
It is recommended you visit and INFINITI
retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensor for the DCA system is common
with ICC and is located behind the front bum-
per.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensorAis located on the front of the
vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly, be
sure to observe the following:
∙ Always keep the sensor area of the front bumper clean.
∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensor.
∙ Do not cover or attach stickers or similar objects on the front bumper near the sen-
sor area. This could cause failure or mal-
function.

10.Keeping your Vehicle Cool
∙ Park your vehicle in a covered parking area or in the shade whenever pos-
sible.
∙ When entering a hot vehicle, opening the windows will help to reduce the
inside temperature faster, resulting in
reduced demand on your A/C system. ∙ Keep your engine tuned up.
∙ Follow the recommended scheduled
maintenance.
∙ Keep the tires inflated to the correct pressure. Low tire pressure increases tire
wear and lowers fuel economy.
∙ Keep all the wheels in correct alignment. Improper alignment increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
∙ Use the recommended viscosity engine oil. For additional information, refer to
“Engine oil and oil filter recommenda-
tions” in the “Technical and consumer in-
formation” section of this manual. If any malfunction occurs in the Intelligent
AWD system while the engine is running,
messages are displayed in the meter.
