If the driver does not operate the steering
wheel after the warning has been displayed,
an audible alert sounds and the warning
flashes in the vehicle information display, fol-
lowed by a quick brake application to request
the driver to take control of the vehicle again.
If the driver still does not respond, the ProPI-
LOT Assist turns on the hazard flasher and
slows the vehicle to a complete stop.
The driver can cancel the deceleration at any
time by steering, braking, accelerating, or op-
erating the ProPILOT Assist switch.
WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for hands-
free driving. Always keep your hands on
the steering wheel and drive your vehicle
safely. Failure to do so could cause a colli-
sion resulting in serious personal injury or
death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of firmly
grips) the steering wheel, the steering
torque sensor may not detect the driver’s
hand(s) on the wheel and a sequence of
warnings may occur. When the driver holds
and operates the steering wheel again, the
warnings turn off.
Steering Assist limitations
WARNING
• In the following situations, the camera
may not detect lane markers correctly or
may detect lane markers incorrectly and
the Steering Assist may not operate
properly:
– When driving on roads where there
are multiple parallel lane markers,
lane markers that are faded or not
painted clearly, nonstandard lane
markers, or lane markers covered
with water, dirt, snow, etc.
– When driving on roads with discon-
tinued lane markers
– When driving on roads with a widen-
ing or narrowing lane width
– When driving on roads where there
are multiple lanes or unclear lane
markers due to road construction
– When driving on roads where there
are sharply contrasting objects, such
as shadows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams, or lines remaining after road
repairs (the Steering Assist could de-
tect these items as lane markers)
– When driving on roads where the
traveling lane merges or separates •
Do not use the Steering Assist under the
following conditions because the system
may not properly detect lane markers.
Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle
control and result in an accident.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
dust, etc.)
– When rain, snow, sand, etc., is thrown
up by the wheels of other vehicles
– When dirt, oil, ice, snow, water, or an-
other object adheres to the camera
unit
– When the lens of the camera unit is
foggy
– When strong light (for example, sun-
light or high beams from oncoming
vehicles) shines on the camera
– When the headlights are not bright
due to dirt on the lens or the head-
lights are off in tunnels or darkness
– When a sudden change in brightness
occurs (for example, when the vehicle
enters or exits a tunnel or is under a
bridge)

Doors and engine hood:Check that the doors
and engine hood operate properly. Also en-
sure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate
hinges, latches, latch pins, rollers and links if
necessary. Make sure that the secondary
latch keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other
corrosive materials, check lubrication
frequently.
Check that the gas stays or struts properly
and securely hold the hood, trunk, or rear
hatch fully open. If the hood, trunk, or rear
hatch is not held open, have the gas stays or
struts replaced.
Lights*: Clean the headlights on a regular
basis. Make sure that the headlights, stop
lights, tail lights, turn signal lights, and other
lights are all operating properly and installed
securely. Also check headlight aim.
Road wheel nuts (lug nuts)*: When checking
the tires, make sure no wheel nuts are miss-
ing, and check for any loose wheel nuts.
Tighten if necessary.
Tire rotation*: Rotate tires at the specified
interval shown in the maintenance schedule.
Tires*: Check the pressure with a gauge
often and always prior to long distance trips. If necessary, adjust the pressure in all tires,
including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive
wear.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
tire pressure sensor:
It is recommended that
you replace the TPMS tire pressure sensor
assembly when the tires are replaced due to
wear or age.
Wheel alignment and balance: If the vehicle
should pull to either side while driving on a
straight and level road, or if you detect un-
even or abnormal tire wear, there may be a
need for wheel alignment.
If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at nor-
mal highway speeds, wheel balancing may be
needed.
For additional information regarding tires, re-
fer to “Important Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in
the INFINITI Warranty Information Booklet.
Windshield: Clean the windshield on a regu-
lar basis. Check the windshield at least
every six months for cracks or other damage.
Have a damaged windshield repaired by a
qualified repair facility. It is recommended
that you have a damaged windshield re-
paired by an INFINITI retailer, or an INFINITI Certified Collision Center. To locate a colli-
sion center in your area, refer to
http://collision.infinitiusa.com.
Inside the vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
checked on a regular basis, such as when
performing scheduled maintenance, cleaning
the vehicle, etc.
Accelerator pedal:
Check the pedal for
smooth operation and make sure the pedal
does not catch or require uneven effort. Keep
the floor mat away from the pedal.
Automatic transmission P (Park) position
mechanism: On a fairly steep hill check that
the vehicle is held securely with the shift po-
sition in the P (Park) position without apply-
ing any brakes.
Brake pedal: Check the pedal for smooth op-
eration. If the brake pedal suddenly goes
down further than normal, the pedal feels
spongy or the vehicle seems to take longer to
stop, have your vehicle checked immediately.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service. Keep the floor mat
away from the pedal.
Brakes: Check that the brakes do not pull the
vehicle to one side when applied.
