ECO MODE
The ECO mode adjusts the engine and transmis-
sion to enhance fuel economy.
NOTE:
Selecting this drive mode will not necessar-
ily improve fuel economy as many driving
factors influence its effectiveness.
Operation
Turn the drive mode select switch to the ECO
position. “ECO” appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display for 2 seconds and the ECO drive
indicator light illuminates on the instrument panel.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed within
the range of economy drive, the ECO drive indi-
cator light illuminates in green. When the accel-
erator pedal is depressed above the range of
economy drive, the color of the ECO drive indi-
cator light changes to orange. For ECO pedal
system equipped models, refer to “ECO pedal
system” in this section.
The ECO drive indicator light will not illuminate in
the following cases:● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position. ●
When the vehicle speed is below 3 mph
(4.8 km/h) or over 90 mph (144 km/h).
● When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
system (if so equipped) is operated.
ECO pedal system (if so equipped)
The ECO pedal system helps assist the driver to
improve fuel economy by increasing the reaction
force of the accelerator pedal. When the ECO
drive indicator light is blinking or turns off, the
ECO pedal system increases the reaction force
of the accelerator pedal.
ECO drive indicator Illuminate or blink
when
Illuminate
(green) When the pedal is
depressed within
range of economy drive
Blinks
(green) When the pedal
is depressed
likely over the range of
economy drive
When the ECO drive indicator illuminates in
green, the accelerator reaction force is normal.
When the ECO drive indicator light is blinking or
turns off, the ECO pedal system increases the
reaction force of the accelerator pedal.
The ECO pedal system may not vary accelerator
reaction force under the following conditions:
● When the shift lever is in the N (Neutral) or
R (Reverse) position.
● When ICC (if so equipped) is being oper-
ated.
If the ECO pedal system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically. The ECO pedal system will
not vary the reaction force of the accelerator
pedal.
When the drive mode select switch is rotated
from the ECO mode to another mode (STAN-
DARD, SPORT or SNOW) while the ECO pedal
system is operating, the ECO pedal system con-
tinues to operate until the pedal is released.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed quickly, the
ECO pedal system will not increase the reaction
force of the acceleration pedal. The ECO pedal
system is not designed to prevent the vehicle
from accelerating.

●When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
approach warning occurs.
● When the hazard warning flashers are oper-
ated.
● When driving on a curve at high speed.
After the above conditions have finished and the
necessary operating conditions are satisfied, the
LDP system application of the brakes will resume.
Condition C:
If the following messages appear in the vehicle
information display, a chime will sound and the
LDP system will be turned off automatically. ● “Unavailable Road is slippery”:
When the VDC system (except Traction
Control System (TCS) function) or ABS op-
erates.
● “Unavailable VDC OFF”:
When the VDC system is turned off.
● “Unavailable Snow mode active”:
When the drive mode select switch is turned
to the SNOW mode.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist, turn
off the LDP system. Push the dynamic driver
assistance switch again to turn the LDP system
back on. Temporary disabled status at high tem-
perature:
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under
high temperature conditions (over approximately
104°F (40°C)) and then the LDP system is turned
on, the LDP system may be deactivated auto-
matically and the following message will appear
on the vehicle information display: “Unavailable
High Cabin Temp.” When the interior tempera-
ture is reduced, the system will resume operating
automatically.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unit1for the LDP system is
located above the inside mirror. To keep the
proper operation of the LDP systems and prevent
a system malfunction, be sure to observe the
following:
● Always keep the windshield clean.
● Do not attach a sticker (including transpar-
ent material) or install an accessory near the
camera unit.

PRECAUTIONS ON CRUISE
CONTROL
1. ACCEL/RES switch
2. COAST/SET switch
3. CANCEL switch
4. ON/OFF switch● If the cruise control system malfunctions, it
will cancel automatically. The SET indicator
in the vehicle information display will blink to
warn the driver. ●
If the engine coolant temperature becomes
excessively high, the cruise control system
will be canceled automatically.
● If the SET indicator blinks, turn the cruise
control main switch off and have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
● The SET indicator may sometimes blink
when the cruise control main switch is
turned on while pushing the ACCEL/RES,
COAST/SET or CANCEL switch. To prop-
erly set the cruise control system, perform
the steps below.
WARNING
Do not use the cruise control when driving
under the following conditions:
● When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a set speed
● In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in
speed
● On winding or hilly roads
● On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
● In very windy areas
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.

CRUISE CONTROL (if so equipped)
5-74Starting and driving
Page 428 of 607

CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed be-
tween 25 - 89 mph (40 - 144 km/h) without
keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control,push the
ON/OFF switch on. The CRUISE indicator light
in the vehicle information display will illuminate.
To set cruising speed, accelerate the vehicle to
the desired speed, push the COAST/SET switch
and release it. The SET indicator light in the
vehicle information display will illuminate. Take
your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your vehicle
maintains the set speed.
● To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle returns to the previously
set speed.
● The vehicle may not maintain the set speed
when going up or down steep hills. If this
happens, drive without the cruise control.
To cancel the preset speed, use one of the
following three methods:
● Push the CANCEL button; the SET indicator
light in the vehicle information display goes
out.
● Tap the brake pedal; the SET indicator light
goes out. ●
Push the ON/OFF switch off. Both the
CRUISE indicator light and SET indicator
light in the vehicle information display go out.
The cruise control is automatically canceled and
the SET light in the vehicle information display
goes out if: ● You depress the brake pedal while pushing
the ACCEL/RES or SET/COAST switch.
The preset speed is deleted from memory.
● The vehicle slows down more than 8 mph
(13 km/h) below the set speed.
● You move the shift lever to N (Neutral) .
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one of
the following three methods:
● Depress the accelerator pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push and
release the COAST/SET switch.
● Push and hold the ACCEL/RES switch.
When the vehicle attains the speed you de-
sire, release the switch.
● Push and release the ACCEL/RES switch.
Each time you do this, the set speed in-
creases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h). To reset at a slower cruising speed,
use one
of the following three methods:
● Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the ve-
hicle attains the desired speed, push the
COAST/SET switch and release it.
● Push and hold the COAST/SET switch. Re-
lease the switch when the vehicle slows to
the desired speed.
● Push and release the COAST/SET switch.
Each time you do this, the set speed de-
creases by about 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the ACCEL/RES switch. The vehicle re-
turns to the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
