WARNING
• Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Moving
Object Detection system could result in
serious injury or death.
• The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with objects
surrounding the vehicle. When maneu-
vering, always use the outside mirrors
and rearview mirror and turn and check
the surroundings to ensure it is safe to
maneuver.
• The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
• The MOD system is not designed to de-
tect surrounding stationary objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when back-
ing out of garages, maneuvering in parking
lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown in the display.MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
• When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position. When activating the Around
View® Monitor, the guide lines, the icons
and the messages may not be displayed
immediately.
• When the
CAMERA button is pressed
to activate the camera view on the display.
• When vehicle speed decreases below ap- proximately 6 mph (10 km/h) and the cam-
era screen is shown in the upper display.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is
displayed:
• When the shift position is in the P (Park) orN (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects moving
objects in the bird’s-eye view. The MOD
system will not operate if the outside mir-
rors are moving in or out, in the stowed
position, or if either front door is opened.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle in ac-
cordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
• Do not use the MOD system when tow-
ing a trailer. The system may not func-
tion properly.
• Excessive noise (for example, audio sys-
tem volume or open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard. •
The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such as:
– When there is low contrast between
background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when a mirror
is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
• The MOD system might detect flowing
water droplets on the camera lens, white
smoke from the muffler, moving shad-
ows, etc.
• The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.

The TSR system provides the driver with in-
formation about the most recently detected
speed limit. The system captures the road
sign information with the multi-sensing front
camera unit
O1located on the windshield in
front of the inside rearview mirror and dis-
plays the detected signs in the vehicle infor-
mation display. For vehicles equipped with a
navigation system, the speed limit displayed
is based on a combination of navigation sys-
tem data and live camera recognition. TSR
information is always displayed at the top of
the vehicle information display, and option-
ally in the main central area of the display
screen.
WARNING
The TSR system is only intended to be a
support device to help provide the driver
with information. It is not a replacement
for the driver’s attention to traffic condi-
tions or responsibility to drive safely. It
cannot prevent accidents due to careless-
ness. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert and drive safely at all times.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under
high temperature conditions (over approxi-
mately 104°F [40°C]) and then started, the
TSR system may be deactivated automati-
cally. The “Not Available: High Camera
Temp.” warning message will appear in the
vehicle information display.

turned off automatically and the system
“Malfunction” warning message will appear
in the vehicle information display.
Action to take:
If the TSR “Malfunction” message appears,
pull off the road at a safe location and stop
the vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart
the engine. If the TSR “Malfunction” message
continues to appear, have the system

INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The TSR system uses the same multi-sensing
front camera unit that is used by the Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system, located
in front of the interior rearview mirror. For
additional information, see ”System mainte-
nance” (P. 5-39).

Trailer lights
CAUTION
When splicing into the vehicle electrical
system, a commercially available power-
type module/converter must be used to
provide power for all trailer lighting. This
unit uses the vehicle battery as a direct
power source for all trailer lights while us-
ing the vehicle tail light, stop light and turn
signal circuits as a signal source. The
module/converter must draw no more
than 15 milliamps from the stop and tail
lamp circuits. Using a module/converter
that exceeds these power requirements
may damage the vehicle's electrical sys-
tem. See a reputable trailer retailer to ob-
tain the proper equipment and to have it
installed.
Trailer lights should comply with federal
and/or local regulations. For assistance in
hooking up trailer lights, contact an INFINITI
retailer or reputable trailer retailer. Vehicles
equipped with the optional trailer tow pack-
age are equipped with a 7-pin trailer harness
connector. If your trailer is equipped with a
flat 4-pin connector, an adapter will be
needed to connect the trailer lights to the
vehicle. Adapters are available at auto parts
stores and hitch retailers.
Trailer brakes
Most states require a separate braking sys-
tem on trailers with a loaded weight above a
specific amount, make sure the trailer meets
the local regulations and the regulations
where you plan to tow.
Several types of braking systems are
available.
Surge Brakes - The surge brake actuator is
mounted on the trailer tongue with a hydrau-
lic line running to each trailer wheel. Surge
brakes are activated by the trailer pushing
against the hitch ball when the tow vehicle is
braking. Hydraulic surge brakes are common
on rental trailers and some boat trailers. In
this type of system, there is no hydraulic or
electric connection for brake operation be-
tween the tow vehicle and the trailer.
Electric Trailer Brakes - Electric braking sys-
tems are activated by an electronic signal
sent from a trailer brake controller (special
brake-sensing module).
Have a professional supplier of towing
equipment make sure the trailer brakes are
properly installed and demonstrate proper
brake function testing.
WARNING
Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
Pre-towing tips
• Be certain your vehicle maintains a level position when a loaded and/or unloaded
trailer is hitched. Do not drive the vehicle if
it has an abnormal nose-up or nose-down
condition; check for improper tongue load,
overload, worn suspension or other pos-
sible causes of either condition.
• Always secure items in the trailer to prevent load shift while driving.
• Keep the cargo load as low as possible in the trailer to keep the trailer center of grav-
ity low.
• Load the trailer so approximately 60% of the trailer load is in the front half and 40%
is in the back half. Also make sure the load is
balanced side to side.
• Check your hitch, trailer tire pressure, ve- hicle tire pressure, trailer light operation,
and trailer wheel lug nuts every time you
attach a trailer to the vehicle.
• Be certain your rearview mirrors conform to all federal, state or local regulations. If
not, install any mirrors required for towing
before driving the vehicle.
