High Beam Assist (if so equipped)
The High Beam Assist system will operate
when the vehicle is driven at speeds of ap-
proximately 25 mph (40 km/h) and above. If
an oncoming vehicle or leading vehicle ap-
pears in front of your vehicle when the head-
light high beam is on, the headlight will be
switched to the low beam automatically.
WARNING
∙ The High Beam Assist system is a conve-nience but it is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driving
practices and switch the high beams and
low beam manually when necessary.
∙ The high beam or low beam may not switch automatically under the following
conditions. Switch the high beam and low
beam manually.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, wind, etc.).
– When a light source similar to a head- light or tail light is in the vicinity of the
vehicle. – When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials on
the lights, or when the light beam is
out of position.
– When there is a sudden, continuous change in brightness.
– When driving on a road that passes over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
– When driving on a road with many curves.
– When a sign or mirror-like surface is reflecting intense light towards the
front of the vehicle.
– When the container, etc. being towed by a leading vehicle is reflecting in-
tense light.
– When a headlight on your vehicle is damaged or dirty.
– When the vehicle is leaning at an angle due to a punctured tire, being towed,
etc.

∙ The timing of switching the low beam andhigh beam may change under the follow-
ing situations.
– The brightness of the headlights of the oncoming vehicle or leading
vehicle.
– The movement and direction of the oncoming vehicle and the leading
vehicle.
– When only one light on the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle is
illuminated.
– When the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle is a two-wheeled
vehicle.
– Road conditions (incline, curve, the road surface, etc.).
– The number of passengers and the amount of luggage. High Beam Assist operation
To activate the High Beam Assist system,
turn the headlight switch to the AUTO posi-
tion
1and push the lever forward2(high
beam position). The High Beam Assist indica-
tor light in the meter will illuminate while the
headlights are turned on.
If the High Beam Assist indicator light does
not illuminate in the above condition, it may
indicate that the system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. When the vehicle speed lowers to less than
approximately 16 mph (25 km/h), the head-
light uses the low beam.
To turn off the High Beam Assist system, turn
the headlight switch to the
position or
select the low beam position by placing the

Ambient image sensor maintenance
The ambient image sensor
1for the High
Beam Assist system is located in front of the
inside mirror. To maintain the proper opera-
tion of the High Beam Assist system and
prevent a system malfunction, be sure to ob-
serve the following:
∙ Always keep the windshield clean.
∙ Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the ambient image sensor. ∙ Do not strike or damage the areas around
the ambient image sensor. Do not touch
the sensor lens that is located on the
ambient image sensor.
If the ambient image sensor is damaged due
to an accident, it is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer.

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.
LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS
(DRL) SYSTEM
The LED portion of the headlights automati-
cally illuminate at 100% intensity when the

engine is started, the LED DRL system does
not illuminate. The LED DRL system illumi-
nates when the parking brake is released. The
LED DRL system will remain on until the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
It is necessary at dusk to turn the headlight
switch on for interior controls and switches
to illuminate, as those remain off while the
switch is in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active, tail
lights on your vehicle are not on. It is neces-
sary at dusk to turn on your headlights.
Failure to do so could cause an accident in-
juring yourself and others.
