Accelerator downshift
— in D (Drive) position —
For passing or hill climbing, depress the ac-
celerator pedal to the floor. This shifts the
transmission down into a lower gear, de-
pending on the vehicle speed.
High fluid temperature protection
mode
This transmission has a high fluid tempera-
ture protection mode. If the fluid temperature
becomes too high (for example, when climb-
ing steep grades in high temperatures with
heavy loads, such as when towing a trailer),
engine power and, under some conditions,
vehicle speed will be decreased automatically
to reduce the chance of transmission dam-
age. Vehicle speed can be controlled with the
accelerator pedal, but the engine and vehicle
speed may be limited.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe operation occurs, please
note that the transmission will be locked in
any of the forward gears according to the
condition.If the vehicle is driven under extreme condi-
tions, such as excessive wheel spinning and
subsequent hard braking, the fail-safe sys-
tem may be activated. The Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL) may come on to indicate
the fail-safe mode is activated. For addi-
tional information, see “Malfunction Indica-
tor Light (MIL)” (P. 2-19). This will occur
even if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, place the ignition
switch in the OFF position and wait for 10
seconds. Then push the switch back to the
ON position. The vehicle should return to its
normal operating condition. If it does not re-
turn to its normal operating condition, have
the transmission checked and repaired, if
necessary. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
WARNING
When the high fluid temperature protec-
tion mode or fail-safe operation occurs, ve-
hicle speed may be gradually reduced. The
reduced speed may be lower than other
traffic, which could increase the chance of
a collision. Be especially careful when driv-
ing. If necessary, pull to the side of the road
at a safe place and allow the transmission
to return to normal operation, or have it
repaired if necessary.

• The STANDARD (2WD models)/AUTO (4WD models) mode will be selected first
each time the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
WARNING
Do not stare at the Drive Mode Selector or
the display while driving so that full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
STANDARD (2WD models)/AUTO
(AWD models)
This is the standard mode that is most suit-
able for normal driving.
SPORT MODE
Adjusts the engine points for a higher
response.
The setting of the steering system is adjusted
to moderately increase steering wheel effort
for a sporty feel.
NOTE:
In the SPORT mode, fuel economy may be
reduced.
SNOW MODE
This mode makes it easier to start and drive
on snowy roads and frozen roads.
CAUTION
Never drive on dry, hard surface roads in
the SNOW mode, as this will overload
the powertrain and may cause a serious
malfunction. Additionally, this will cause
premature tire wear and reduced fuel
economy. When the SNOW mode is se-
lected, small vibration in cornering may oc-
cur. This is not a malfunction.
PERSONAL MODE
This mode is used for adjusting the steering
mode and drive modes. Turn the PERSONAL
mode off for normal driving.
5-30Starting and driving

The TSR system provides the driver with in-
formation about the most recently detected
speed limit. The system captures the road
sign information with the multi-sensing front
camera unit
OAlocated on the windshield in
front of the inside rearview mirror and dis-
plays the detected signs in the vehicle infor-
mation display. For vehicles equipped with a
navigation system, the speed limit displayed
is based on a combination of navigation sys-
tem data and live camera recognition. TSR
information is always displayed at the top of
the vehicle information display, and option-
ally in the main central area of the display
screen.
WARNING
The TSR system is only intended to be a
support device to help provide the driver
with information. It is not a replacement
for the driver’s attention to traffic condi-
tions or responsibility to drive safely. It
cannot prevent accidents due to careless-
ness. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert and drive safely at all times.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system
displays the following types of road signs:
CAUTION
• The TSR system is intended as an aid to
careful driving. It is the driver’s responsi-
bility to stay alert, drive safely, and ob-
serve all road regulations that currently
apply, including looking out for road
signs.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under
high temperature conditions (over approxi-
mately 104°F [40°C]) and then started, the
TSR system may be deactivated automati-
cally. The “Unavailable: High Cabin Tempera-
ture” warning message will appear in the ve-
hicle information display.
Action to take:
When the interior temperature is reduced, the
TSR system will resume operating automati-
cally.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the TSR system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically and the system
“Malfunction” warning message will appear
in the vehicle information display.
Action to take:
If the TSR “Malfunction” message appears,
pull off the road at a safe location and stop
the vehicle. Turn the engine off and restart
the engine. If the TSR “Malfunction” message
continues to appear, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The TSR system uses the same multi-sensing
front camera unit that is used by the Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system, located in
front of the interior rearview mirror. For ad-
ditional information, see ”System mainte-
nance” (P. 5-42).
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the LDW system
could result in serious injury or death.
• This system is only a warning device to
inform the driver of a potential unin-
tended lane departure. It will not steer

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW)
5-36Starting and driving

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the LDP system
could result in serious injury or death.
• The LDP system will not steer the vehicle
or prevent loss of control. It is the driv-
er’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all
times. •
The LDP system is primarily intended for
use on well-developed freeways or high-
ways. It may not detect the lane markers
in certain road, weather, or driving
conditions.
The LDP system must be turned on with the
ProPILOT Assist switch on the steering
wheel, every time the ignition is placed in the
ON position.
The LDP system will operate when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds of approximately 37
mph (60 km/h) and above, and only when the
lane markings are clearly visible on the road.
The LDP system warns the driver when the
vehicle has left the center of the traveling
lane with an indicator and a steering wheel
vibration. The system helps assist the driver
to return the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane by applying the brakes to the
left or right wheels individually (for a short
period of time).
The LDP system monitors the lane markers
on the traveling lane using the camera unit
OAlocated above the inside mirror.
