Satellite radio reception:
When the satellite radio is used for the first
time or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This
is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10
minutes with the satellite radio ON and the
vehicle outside of any metal or large
building for the satellite radio to receive
all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode requires an active
SiriusXM Satellite Radio subscription. The
satellite radio is not available in Alaska,
Hawaii and Guam.
The satellite radio performance may be
affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the
satellite antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.

Once a cellular phone is connected to the
in-vehicle phone module, no phone con-
necting procedure is required anymore.
Your phone is automatically connected
with the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position with the registered cellular phone
turned on and carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Blue-
tooth
®cellular phones in the in-vehicle
phone module. However, you can talk on
only one cellular phone at a time.
The INFINITI Voice Recognition system
supports the phone commands, so dialing
a phone number using your voice is
possible. For more details, see “INFINITI
Voice Recognition system” later in this
section; page 4-109.
Before using the Bluetooth
®Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
®
functions share the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth®
and the wireless LAN functions at the
same time may slow down or discon-
nect the communication and cause
undesired noise. It is recommended
that you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-
Fi) when using the Bluetooth
®func- tions.
. Set up the wireless connection between
a compatible cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using the
Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone System.
. Some Bluetooth®enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized by the
in-vehicle phone module. Please visit
www.InfinitiUSA.com/bluetooth for a
recommended phone list.
. You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
— Your vehicle is outside of the tele-
phone service area.
— Your vehicle is in an area where it is
difficult to receive radio waves; such
as in a tunnel, in an underground
parking garage, behind a tall build-
ing or in a mountainous area.
— Your cellular phone is locked in
order not to be dialed.
. When the radio wave condition is not
ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other
person’s voice during a call.
. Immediately after the ignition switch is
pushed to the ON position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short
period of time. .
Do not place the cellular phone in an
area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle phone module to
prevent tone quality degradation and
wireless connection disruption.
. While a cellular phone is connected
through the Bluetooth®wireless con-
nection, the battery power of the
cellular phone may discharge quicker
than usual.
. If the Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone
System seems to be malfunctioning,
please visit www.InfinitiUSA.com/blue-
tooth for troubleshooting help.
. Some cellular phones or other devices
may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a
different location may reduce or elim-
inate the noise.
. Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s
Manual regarding the telephone pairing
procedure specific to your phone,
battery charging, cellular phone anten-
na, etc.
. The antenna display on the monitor will
not coincide with the antenna display
of some cellular phones.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
7 speed automatic transmission
The automatic transmission in your vehicle
is electronically controlled by a transmis-
sion control module to produce maximum
efficiency and smooth operation.
Shown on the following pages are the
recommended operating procedures for
this transmission. Follow these procedures
for maximum vehicle performance and
driving enjoyment.
Starting the vehicle
After starting the engine, fully depress the
foot brake pedal and push the shift lever
button before shifting the shift lever to the
R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive) or
Manual shift mode position. Be sure the
vehicle is fully stopped before attempting
to shift the shift lever.
This automatic transmission model is
designed so that the foot brake pedal
must be depressed before shifting from P
(Park) to any drive position while the
ignition switch position is ON.The shift lever cannot be moved out of the
P (Park) position and into any of the other
gear positions if the ignition switch is
pushed to the LOCK, OFF or ACC position.
1. Keep the foot brake pedal depressed
and push the shift lever button to shift
into a driving gear.
2. Release the parking brake and foot brake, then gradually start the vehicle
in motion.
WARNING
. Do not depress the accelerator pedal
while shifting from P (Park) or N
(Neutral) to R (Reverse), D (Drive) or
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
caution when shifting into a forward or
reverse gear before the engine has
warmed up.
. Never shift to P (Park) or R (Reverse)
while vehicle is moving forward. Never
shift to P (Park), D (Drive) or manual shift
mode while vehicle is moving rearward. Failure to do so could cause you to lose
control and have an accident.
CAUTION
.
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.
. When stopping the vehicle on an uphill
grade, do not hold the vehicle by
depressing the accelerator pedal. The
foot brake should be used for this
purpose.
. Do not downshift abruptly on slippery
roads. This may cause a loss of control.
