–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). –
If a vehicle is using an accessory like a
bike rack, or cargo carrier that blocks
the sensors.
• 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.

This may cause a malfunction or improper
operation.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the FEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system could result in seri-
ous injury or death.
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem is a supplemental aid to the driver. It
is not a replacement for the driver’s at-
tention to traffic conditions or responsi-
bility to drive safely. It cannot prevent
accidents due to carelessness or danger-
ous driving techniques.
• The FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem does not function in all driving, traf-
fic, weather and road conditions.
The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
can assist the driver when there is a risk of a
forward collision with the vehicle ahead in the
traveling lane or with a pedestrian ahead in
the traveling lane. The FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
uses a radar sensor
OAlocated on the front of
the vehicle to measure the distance to the
vehicle ahead in the same lane. For pedestri-
ans, the FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem uses a camera
OBinstalled behind the
windshield in addition to the radar sensor.

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 FEB with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem does not detect the following:
– Pedestrians that are small (for ex- ample, children), in a sitting position,
operating toys/skateboards, on
scooters or in wheelchairs, or not in
an upright standing or walking
position.
– Animals of any size.
– Obstacles (for examples, cargo or de- bris) on the roadway or roadside.
– Oncoming or crossing vehicles.
– Vehicles where the tires are difficult to see or the shape of the rear of the
vehicle is unclear or obstructed.
– Parked vehicles. •
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 approaches the sta-
tionary vehicle at speeds over ap-
proximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
– Pedestrian detection will not func- tion when the vehicle is driven at
speeds over approximately 37 mph
(60 km/h) or below approximately 6
mph (10km/h).
• 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 properly or detect
a vehicle or pedestrian ahead in the fol-
lowing conditions:
– In poor visibility conditions (such as rain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand
storms, smoke, and road spray from
other vehicles).
– If dirt, ice, snow, fog or other material is covering the radar sensor area or
camera area of windshield.
Starting and driving5-111

– If strong light (for example, sunlightor high beams) enters the front cam-
era or a sudden change in brightness
occurs (for example, entering a tun-
nel or driving in lightning).
– In dark or dimly lit conditions, such as at night or in tunnels, including cases
where your vehicle’s headlights are
off or dim, or the tail lights of the
vehicle ahead are off.
– When the direction of the camera is misaligned.
– When driving on a steep downhill slope, on roads with sharp curves,
and/or bumpy or dirt roads.
– If there is interference by other radar sources.
– When your vehicle’s position or movement is changed quickly or sig-
nificantly (for example, lane change,
turning vehicle, abrupt steering, sud-
den acceleration or deceleration).
– When your vehicle or the vehicle or pedestrian ahead moves quickly or
significantly such that the system
cannot detect and react in time (for
example, pedestrian moving quickly
toward the vehicle at close range, ve-
hicle cutting in, changing lanes, mak-
ing a turn, steering abruptly, sudden
acceleration or deceleration). – When the vehicle or pedestrian is off-
set from the vehicle’s forward path.
– If the speed difference between the two vehicles is small.
– The pedestrian’s profile is partially obscured or unidentifiable; for ex-
ample, due to transporting luggage,
pushing a stroller, wearing bulky or
very loose-fitting clothing or acces-
sories, or being in a unique posture
(such as raising hands).
– There is poor contrast of a person to the background, such as having
clothing color or pattern which is
similar to the background.
– For approximately 15 seconds after starting the engine.
– If the vehicle ahead has a unique or unusual shape, extremely low or high
clearance heights, or unusual cargo
loading or is narrow (for example, a
motorcycle).
– When the vehicle or pedestrian is lo- cated near a traffic sign, a reflective
area (for example, water on road), or
is in a shadow.
– When multiple pedestrians are grouped together.
– When the view of the pedestrian is obscured by a vehicle or other object. – While towing a trailer or other
vehicle.
• The system performance may be de-
graded in the following conditions:
– The vehicle is driven on a slippery road.
– The vehicle is driven on a slope.
– Excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the cargo area of
your vehicle.
• The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s (radar and camera)
functionality, within certain limitations.
The system may not detect some forms
of obstruction of the sensor area such as
ice, snow or stickers, for example. In
these cases, the system may not be able
to warn the driver properly. Be sure that
you check, clean and clear sensor areas
regularly.
• In some road and traffic conditions, the
FEB with Pedestrian Detection system
may unexpectedly apply partial braking.
When acceleration is necessary, depress
the accelerator pedal to override the
system.
5-112Starting and driving

– oncoming pedestrians
– objects on the road (such as trees)
• Braking distances increase on slippery
surfaces.
• Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime may
not be heard.
When driving on some roads, such as wind-
ing, hilly, curved, narrow roads, or roads
which are under construction, the sensor may
detect vehicles in a different lane, or may
temporarily not detect a vehicle traveling
ahead. This may cause the system to work
inappropriately. The detection of vehicles may also be af-
fected by vehicle operating (steering maneu-
ver or traveling position in the lane, etc.) or
vehicle condition. If this occurs, the system
may warn you by blinking the system indica-
tor and sounding the chime unexpectedly.
You will have to manually control the proper
distance away from the vehicle traveling
ahead.
