type system that activates when a vehicle is
moved or when a vibration occurs.

SECURITY SYSTEMS
Instruments and controls2-33

If the ambient image sensor is damaged due
to an accident, it is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer.
Battery saver system
The battery saver system automatically turns
off the ignition after a period of time when
the ignition switch is left in the AUTO ACC or
ON position.
The battery saver system automatically turns
off the following lights after a period of time
when the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position and the doors are closed:
• Headlights, when the headlight switch is inthe
orposition
• Interior lights, when left in the ON position
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature au-
tomatically turns off the headlights after a
period of time, you should turn the head-
light switch to the OFF position when the
engine is not running to avoid discharging
the vehicle battery.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS) will
automatically adjust the headlights (low
beam) toward the turning direction to im-
prove the driver’s view. When the headlight
switch is on and the driver operates the steer-
ing wheel in a turn, the AFS system will be
activated.
The AFS will operate:
• 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.
Automatic headlight aiming control
(if so equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
headlight levelling system. The headlight axis
is controlled automatically.
INFINITI recommends that you consult the
local regulations on the use of lights.
LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(DRL) SYSTEM
The LED portion of the headlights automati-
cally illuminate at 100% intensity when the
engine is started and the parking brake re-
leased. The LED Daytime Running Lights
(DRL) system operates with the headlight
switch in the AUTO or OFF position. When
you turn the headlight switch to the
position for full illumination, the LED lights
switch from LED DRL system to the park
function.
Instruments and controls2-45

Move the lever up or down until the turn
signal begins to flash, but the lever does not
latch, and release the lever. The turn signal

Choose the appropriate method to signal a
lane change based on road and traffic
conditions.
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
To turn the fog lights on, turn the headlight
switch to theposition, then push the fog
light switch on.
To turn the fog lights on with the headlight
switch in the AUTO position, the headlights
must be on, then push the fog light switch on.
To turn the fog lights off, push the fog light
switch again.
The headlights must be on and the low beams
selected for the fog lights to operate. The fog
lights automatically turn off when the high
beam headlights are selected. To sound the horn, push near the horn icon on
the steering wheel.WARNING

could affect proper operation of the
supplemental front air bag system. Tam-
pering with the supplemental front air bag

The Steering Assist switch is used to turn on
and off the Steering Assist system that is
activated using the settings menu of the ve-
hicle information display.
The Steering Assist system controls the
steering system to help keep your vehicle
near the center of the lane when driving. For
additional information, see “ProPILOT As-
sist” (P. 5-73).WARNING
• The front sonar system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper
driving.
• The rear sonar system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing. Always turn and check that it is safe
to do so before backing up. Always back
up slowly. The front sonar system:
• is active when the ignition switch is in the
ON position and the shift lever is in a for-
ward gear position.
• a beeping tone is emitted when the sensors detect obstacles within 3 ft (1.0 m) of the
front bumper.
The rear sonar system:
• is active when the ignition is in the ON position and the shift lever is in R (Reverse).
• a beeping tone is emitted when the sensors detect obstacles within 4.9 ft (1.5 m) of the
rear bumper.
The front and rear sonar system may be en-
abled by pushing the front and rear sonar
switch. Push the switch again to disable the
system.
The system will automatically reset the next
time the ignition switch is turned on.
For additional information, see “Front and
rear sonar system” (P. 5-147).

If you are unrestrained, leaning forward,
sitting sideways or out of position in any
way, you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also receive
serious or fatal injuries from the air bag if
you are up against it when it inflates.
Always sit back against the seatback and
as far away as practical from the steer-
ing wheel. Always use the seat belts.
