INFINITI QX80 2019 Owners Manual

Difference between predicted and
actual distances
The displayed guide lines and their locations
on the ground are for approximate reference
only. Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces
or projecting objects will be actually located
at distances different from those displayed
in the monitor relative to the guide lines
(refer to illustrations). When in doubt, turn
around and view the objects as you are
backing up, or park and exit the vehicle to
view the positioning of objects behind the
vehicle.
JVH1214X
Backing up on a steep uphill:
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
further than it appears on the monitor.
JVH1215X
Backing up on a steep downhill:
When backing up the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown further than the actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
closer than it appears on the monitor.

Backing up near a projecting object:
The predictive course lines
do not touch
the object in the display. However, the
vehicle may hit the object if it projects over
the actual backing up course.
JVH1216X
Backing up behind a projecting object:
The position
is shown further than the
positionin the display. However, the
positionis actually at the same distance
as the position. The vehicle may hit the
object when backing up to the positionif
the object projects over the actual backing up course.
How to park with predictive course
lines
WARNING
.
If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
. If the battery is disconnected or
becomes discharged, the predictive
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, drive the vehicle
on a straight road for more than 5
minutes.

front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the vehicle that
covers the cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray
it around the cameras. Otherwise,
water may enter the camera unit causing water condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
. Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
. The screen displayed on the Around
View
®Monitor will automatically return
to the previous screen 3 minutes after
the CAMERA button has been pushed
while the shift lever is in a position other
than the R (Reverse) position.
. There may be a delay when switching
between views.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly.

camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
. The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.

View
®Monitor may differ somewhat
from the actual color of objects. .
Objects on the monitor may not be clear
and the color of the object may differ in a
dark environment.

between each camera view of the bird’s-
eye view.
. When activating the Around View
®
Monitor, the icons and the messages
may not be displayed for a while.

result in serious injury or death.
. The sonar is a convenience feature. It
is not a substitute for proper parking.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large station-
ary objects to help avoid damaging
the vehicle.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
. Always look around and check that it
is safe to move before parking.

CAMERA AIDING SONAR FUNCTION

JVH1693X
1. Center display
2. Sonar indicator
3. CAMERA button
4. SETTING button
SONAR SYSTEM OPERATION
The system gives the tone for front objects
when the shift lever is in the D (Drive)
position and both front and rear objects
when the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
When the camera image is shown on the
center display, the system shows the sonar
indicator regardless of the shift lever posi-
tion.
The system is deactivated at speeds above 6
MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front, front-wide,
rear and rear-wide views indicate different
distances to the object.
When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of the
blinking and the rate of the tone increase.
When the vehicle is very close to the object,
the indicator stops blinking and turns red,
and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3
seconds when an object is detected by only
the sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no

Detection (MOD) system will also be turned
off at the same time. (See “Moving Object
Detection (MOD)” (P.4-20).) When the key
is selected again, the indicatorwill turn
on and the sonar will turn back on.
In the below cases, the sonar will be turned
back on automatically:
. When the shift lever is placed in the R
(Reverse) position. .
When the CAMERA button is pushed
and a screen other than the camera view
is shown on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 6 MPH (10 km/h).
. When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
To deactivate the sonar system completely,
