System key. If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key, an automated toll road device or auto-
matic payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the de- vice (which may have caused the interfer-
ence) separate from the registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System key on a separate
key ring to avoid interference from other
devices.

• when the headlight switch is ON.
• when the shift position is in any position other than P (Park) or R (Reverse).
• when the vehicle is driven at above 16 mph (25 km/h) for the left-side headlight. Note
that the right-side low beam headlight will
swivel but the left side will not swivel when
the vehicle is at a stop and the steering
wheel is turned. The vehicle must attain a
speed above 16 mph (25 km/h) before AFS
activates the left-side headlight.
AFS will also adjust the headlight to a proper
axis automatically, depending on the number
of occupants in the vehicle, the load the ve-
hicle is carrying and the road conditions.
If the AFS OFF indicator blinks or the vehicle
information display shows an AFS system
error message after the ignition switch has been pushed to the ON position, this may
indicate that the AFS is not functioning prop-
erly. Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. When the engine is started, the head-
lights will vibrate to check the system condi-
tion. This is not a malfunction.
