from outside the vehicle.
The following features may be affected
when Remote Engine Start is used:
∙ Vehicles with an automatic climate con- trol system will default to either a heating
or cooling mode depending on the out-
side temperature.
Laws in some local communities may restrict
the use of remote starters. For example,
some laws require a person using Remote
Engine Start to have the vehicle in view.
Check local regulations for any requirements. Other conditions may affect the function of
the Remote Engine Start feature. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Conditions the
Remote Engine Start will not work” in this
section.
Other conditions can affect the performance
of the Intelligent Key transmitter. For addi-
tional information, refer to “INFINITI Intelli-
gent Key System” in this section.
REMOTE ENGINE START
OPERATING RANGE
The Remote Engine Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave sources
are present near the operating location, the
Intelligent Key operating range becomes nar-
rower, and the Intelligent Key may not func-
tion properly.
The Remote Engine Start operating range is
approximately 60 m (197 ft) from the vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE
VEHICLE
To use the Remote Engine Start feature to
start the engine perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Press the
button to lock all
doors.
3. Within 5 seconds press and hold the
button until the turn signal
lights flash and the tail lamps turn on. If
the vehicle is not within view press and
hold the
button for at least 2 sec-
onds.
The following events will occur when the en-
gine starts:
∙ The parking lights will turn on and remain on as long as the engine is running.
∙ The doors will be locked and the climate control system may come on.
∙ The engine will continue to run for 10 minutes. Repeat the steps to extend
the time for an additional 10 minutes. For
additional information, refer to “Extend-
ing engine run time” in this section.LPD2272

section. Run time will be calculated as fol-
lows:∙ The first 10 minute run time will start when the Remote Engine Start function
is performed.
∙ The second 10 minutes will start immedi- ately when the Remote Engine Start
function is performed again. For ex-
ample, if the engine has been running for
5 minutes, and 10 minutes are added, the
engine will run for a total of 15 minutes.
∙ Extending engine run time will bring you to the two Remote Engine Start limit.
A maximum of two Remote Engine Starts, or
a single start with an extension, are allowed
between ignition cycles. The ignition switch must be cycled to the ON
position and then back to the OFF position
before the Remote Engine Start procedure
can be used again.

3-22Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
NOTE:∙ Odors from inside and outside the vehicle can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the vents.
∙ When parking, set the heater and air con- ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
compartment. This should help reduce
odors inside the vehicle.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Cooling and/or dehumidified
heating (AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the
system automatically works to keep a con-
stant temperature. Air flow distribution, in-
take air control and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.
1. Press the AUTO button on. (The indica- tor on the button will illuminate and
AUTO will be displayed.) 2. Operate the driver’s side temperature
control buttons.
∙ Adjust the temperature display to about 24°C (75°F) for normal operation.
∙ The temperature of the passenger com- partment will be maintained automati-
cally. Air flow distribution, intake air con-
trol and fan speed are also controlled
automatically.
∙ A visible mist may be seen coming from the ventilators in hot, humid conditions as
the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
Dehumidified defogging
1. Press thefront defogger button
on. (The indicator light on the button will
come on.)
2. Operate the temperature control but- tons to set the desired temperature.
∙ To quickly remove ice from the outside of the windows, use the
fan speed
control buttons to set the fan speed to
maximum. ∙ As soon as possible after the windshield
is clean, press the AUTO button to return
to the automatic mode.
∙ When the
front defogger button is
pressed, the air conditioner will automatically
be turned on at outside temperatures above
2°C (36°F). The air recirculate mode auto-
matically turns off, allowing outside air to be
drawn into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging performance.
Remote Engine Start with
Intelligent Climate Control
(if so equipped)
Vehicles equipped with automatic climate
controls and Remote Engine Start function
may go into automatic heating or cooling
mode when Remote Engine Start is activated
depending on outside and cabin tempera-
tures. During this period, the climate control
display and buttons will be inoperable until
the ignition switch is turned on. In Remote
Engine Start defogging mode, the rear win-
dow defogger and heated steering wheel (if
so equipped) may be activated automatically.

NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery discharge
and potential no-start conditions such as:1. Installation or extended use of electronic accessories that consume battery power
when the engine is not running (phone
chargers, GPS, DVD players, etc.).
2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.
REMOTE ENGINE START
(if so equipped)
Vehicles started with the Remote Engine
Start require the ignition switch to be placed
in the ON position before the shift lever can
be moved from the P (Park) position. To place
the ignition switch in the ON position, follow
these steps:
1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you.
2. Apply the brake.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON position. For additional information, refer to “INFINITI
Intelligent Key” in the “Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section of this manual.
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE
TRANSMISSION (CVT)
WARNING
∙ Do not depress the accelerator pedal
while shifting from P (Park) or N (Neu-
tral) to R (Reverse), D (Drive), or M
(Manual shift mode). Always depress the
brake pedal until shifting is completed.
Failure to do so could cause you to lose
control and have an accident.
∙ Cold engine idle speed is high, so use cau- tion when shifting into a forward or re-
verse gear before the engine has warmed
up.
∙ Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads. This may cause a loss of control.
∙ Never shift to either the P (Park) or R (Reverse) position while the vehicle is
moving forward and P (Park) or D (Drive)
position while the vehicle is reversing.
This could cause an accident or damage
the transmission.
∙ Except in an emergency, do not shift to the N (Neutral) position while driving.
Coasting with the transmission in the N
(Neutral) position may cause serious
damage to the transmission.
