light INFINITI QX50 2020 Owner's Manual

Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) comes on
steady for 20 seconds and then blinks for
10 seconds , the I/M test condition is “not
ready”. If the MIL does not blink after 20 sec-
onds, the I/M test condition is “ready”. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer to set the “ready condition” or to pre-
pare the vehicle for testing.The ProPILOT Assist is equipped with an
Event Data Recording function.
The main purpose is to record, in certain crash
or near crash-like situations, such as an air
bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle,
data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The Data re-
cording function is designed to record data
related to driver operation, vehicle dynamics
and system status for a short period of time.
The Data recording function in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
∙ Driver operational status of accelerator, brake, handle etc.
∙ Detection status of a vehicle ahead and lane markers
∙ Vehicle information such as vehicle speed
∙ Information on the operation of the Pro- PILOT Assist
∙ ProPILOT Assist malfunction diagnosis information
∙ Images from multi-sensing front camera (Available only when SRS air bag or FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system is acti-
vated) The ProPILOT Assist does not record con-
versations, sounds or images of the inside of
the vehicle.
NISSAN and third parties entrusted by
NISSAN may use the data recorded for the
purpose of improving NISSAN’s vehicle
safety performance.
NISSAN and third parties entrusted by
NISSAN will not disclose/provide the re-
corded data to a third party except:
∙ With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee In re-
sponse to an official request by the po-
lice, a court of law or a government of-
fice.
∙ For use as part of NISSAN’s defense of litigation
∙ For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle
owner
