RAB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the RAB system. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions for proper use of
the RAB system could result in serious in-
jury or death.
LSD3610
5-120Starting and driving

–Snow chains are used.
– Wheels or tires other than INFINITI
recommended are used.
– The brakes are cold at low ambient
temperatures or immediately after
driving has started.
– The braking force becomes poor due
to wet brakes after driving through a
puddle or washing the vehicle.
• Turn the RAB system off in the following
conditions to prevent the occurrence of
an unexpected accident resulting from
sudden system operation:
– The vehicle is towed.
– The vehicle is carried on a flatbed
truck.
– The vehicle is on the chassis
dynamometer.
– The vehicle drives on an uneven road
surface.
– Suspension parts other than those
designated as Genuine INFINITI
parts are used. (If the vehicle height
or the vehicle body inclination is
changed, the system may not detect
an obstacle correctly.)
– The vehicle is towing an object (if so
equipped). •
Excessive noise (e.g., audio system vol-
ume, an open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may not
be heard.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the RAB system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, the RAB system
warning light will illuminate, and the “System
fault” warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.
Action to take
If the warning light illuminates, park the ve-
hicle in a safe location, turn the engine off,
and restart the engine. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the RAB system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
NOTE:
If the RAB system cannot be operated tem-
porarily, the RAB system warning light
blinks.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Observe the following items to ensure proper
operation of the system:
• Always keep the parking sensors
O1clean.
• If the parking sensors are dirty, wipe them off with a soft cloth while being careful to
not damage them.
• Do not subject the area around the parking sensors
O1to strong impact. Also, do not
remove or disassemble the parking sensors.
If the parking sensors and peripheral areas
are deformed in an accident, etc., have the
sensors checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

SYSTEM OPERATION1. Vehicle ahead detection indicator
2. FEB with Pedestrian Detection emer-gency warning indicator 3. FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
warning light
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
operates at speeds above approximately 3
mph (5 km/h). For the pedestrian detection
function, the FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system operates at speeds between 6 – 37
mph (10 – 60 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system will
firstly provide the warning to the driver by
flashing the vehicle ahead detection indicator
(yellow) in the vehicle information display and
providing an audible alert. If the driver applies
the brakes quickly and forcefully after the
warning, and the FEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system detects that there is still the
possibility of a forward collision, the system
will automatically increase the braking force.
If the driver does not take action, the FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system issues the
second visual (flashing) (red and white) and
audible warning. If the driver releases the
accelerator pedal, then the system applies
partial braking. If the risk of a collision be-
comes imminent, the FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system applies harder braking
automatically.

TURNING THE FEB WITH
PEDESTRIAN DETECTION
SYSTEM ON/OFFPerform the following steps to enable or dis-
able the FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system.1. Press the MENU button below the lower
display screen.
2. Select “Driver Assistance.”
3. Select “Emergency Assist.”
4. Select “ON” to turn the “Forward” system on or off.
When the FEB with Pedestrian Detection
system is turned off, the FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system warning light illuminates.
NOTE:
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys- tem will be automatically turned on when
the engine is restarted.
• The Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) system (if so equipped) is inte-
grated into the FEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system. There is not a separate se-
lection in the lower display for the PFCW
system. When the FEB with Pedestrian
Detection is turned off, the PFCW system
is also turned off.

FEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB with Pedestrian Detection system.
Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem cannot detect all vehicles or pedes-
trians under all conditions.
• The radar sensor FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system does not detect the
following objects:
– Small pedestrians (including small
children), animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or using
mobile transport such as scooters,
child-operated toys, or skateboards.
– Pedestrians who are seated or other-
wise not in a full upright standing or
walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside •
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem has some performance limitations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the vehi-
cle’s path, the FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system will not function
when the vehicle is driven at speeds
over approximately 50 mph (80
km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the FEB
with Pedestrian Detection system
will not function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) or below approxi-
mately 6 mph (10km/h).
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem will not function for pedestrians in
darkness or in tunnels, even if there is
street lighting in the area.
• For pedestrians, the FEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system will not issue the
first warning.
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem may not function if the vehicle ahead
is narrow (for example, a motorcycle).
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem may not function if speed difference
between the two vehicles is too small. •
The radar sensor FEB with Pedestrian
Detection system may not function
properly or detect a vehicle ahead in the
following conditions:
– Poor visibility (conditions such as
rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles).
– Driving on a steep downhill slope or
roads with sharp curves.
– Driving on a bumpy road surface, such
as an uneven dirt road.
– If dirt, ice, snow or other material is
covering the radar sensor area.
– Interference by other radar sources.
– The camera area of the windshield is
fogged up, or covered with dirt, wa-
ter drops, ice, snow, etc.
– Strong light (for example, sunlight or
high beams from oncoming vehicles)
enters the front camera. Strong light
causes the area around the pedes-
trian to be cast in a shadow, making it
difficult to see.
– A sudden change in brightness occurs.
(For example, when the vehicle enters
or exits a tunnel or a shaded area or
lightning flashes.)
