structs the lane camera unit de-
tection range.
— When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres to the windshield in front
of the lane camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
— When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the
light directly shines on the front
of the vehicle at sunrise or sun-
set.)
— When a sudden change in bright- ness occurs. (For example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
Condition A:
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then
started, the LDW system may be deacti-
vated automatically, the LDW indicator will
flash and the following message will appear in the vehicle information display.
.
“Not Available: High Camera Temp”
When the interior temperature is reduced,
the LDW system will resume operating
automatically and the LDW indicator will
stop flashing.
Condition B:
The warning function of the LDW system is
not designed to work under the following
conditions:
. When you operate the lane change signal
and change traveling lanes in the direc-
tion of the signal. (The LDW system will
become operable again approximately 2
seconds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
. When the vehicle speed lowers to less
than approximately 37 MPH (60 km/h).
Action to take:
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are sa-
tisfied, the LDW system will resume.SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the LDW system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically and “Malfunction”
warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display. If the warning message
appears, pull off the road to a safe location
and stop the vehicle. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position and restart the
engine. If the warning message continues to
appear, have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The lane camera unitfor the LDW system
is located above the inside mirror.
To keep the proper operation of the LDW
system and prevent a system malfunction,
be sure to observe the following:
. Always keep the windshield clean.
. Do not attach a sticker (including trans-
parent material) or install an accessory
near the camera unit.
. Do not place reflective materials, such as
white paper or a mirror, on the instru-
ment panel. The reflection of sunlight
may adversely affect the camera unit’s
capability of detecting the lane markers. .
Do not strike or damage the areas around
the camera unit. Do not touch the
camera lens or remove the screw located
on the camera unit. If the camera unit is
damaged due to an accident, it is re-
commended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions 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 driver’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 highways. It may not detect the
lane markers in certain road, weath-
er, or driving conditions.

5-32Starting and driving
— When a sudden change in bright-ness occurs. (For example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)
While the LDP system is operating, you may
hear a sound of brake operation. This is
normal and indicates that the LDP system is
operating properly.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
Condition A:
The warning and assist functions of the LDP
system are not designed to work under the
following conditions:
. When you operate the lane change signal
and change the traveling lanes in the
direction of the signal. (The LDP system
will be deactivated for approximately 2
seconds after the lane change signal is
turned off.)
. When the vehicle speed lowers to less
than approximately 37 MPH (60 km/h).
Action to take:
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are sa-
tisfied, the warning and assist functions will
resume. Condition B:
The assist function of the LDP system is not
designed to work under the following con-
ditions (warning is still functional):
.
When the brake pedal is depressed.
. When the steering wheel is turned as far
as necessary for the vehicle to change
lanes.
. When the vehicle is accelerated during
the LDP system operation.
. When the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
approach warning occurs (if so
equipped).
. When the hazard warning flashers are
operated.
. When driving on a curve at high speed.
Action to take:
After the above conditions have finished and
the necessary operating conditions are sa-
tisfied, the LDP system application of the
brakes will resume.
Condition C:
If the following message appears in the
vehicle information display, a chime will
sound and the LDP system will be turned
off automatically.
. "Not Available: Poor Road Conditions":
— When the VDC system (except TCS function) or ABS operates. .
"Currently unavailable/Currently not
available":
— When the VDC system is turned off.
— When the SNOW mode switch is turned on.
— When the 4WD shift switch is in the 4H or 4L position (for 4WD models).
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
turn off the LDP system. Push the dynamic
driver assistance switch again to turn the
LDP system back on.
Temporary disabled status at high tem-
perature:
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight
under high temperature conditions (over
approximately 104°F (40°C)) and then the
LDP system is turned on, the LDP system
may be deactivated automatically and the
following message will appear on the vehicle
information display:
. “Not Available: High Camera Temp”
When the interior temperature is reduced,
the system will resume operating automati-

If the turn signal is then activated, the
system chimes (twice) and the side indicator
light flashes. The side indicator light con-
tinues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
The side indicator light illuminates for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
The brightness of the side indicator light is
adjusted automatically depending on the
brightness of the ambient light.

Illustration 6: If the driver activates the turn
signal while another vehicle is in the detec-
tion zone, then the system chimes (twice)
and the side indicator light flashes.
NOTE:
The radar sensors may not detect a vehicle
which is traveling at about the same speed
as your vehicle when it enters the detection
zone.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNA-
VAILABLE
When radar blockage is detected, the BSW
system will be turned off automatically, a
chime will sound and the “Unavailable Side
Radar Obstruction” warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display.
The system is not available until the condi-
tions no longer exist.
The radar sensors may be blocked by
temporary ambient conditions such as
splashing water, mist or fog. The blocked
condition may also be caused by objects
such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar
sensors.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the Blind
Spot Intervention
®(BSI) system (if so
equipped) will also stop working.
Action to take:
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the system will resume automatically.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
When the BSW system malfunctions, it will
be turned off automatically, the BSW in-
dicator illuminates and the “Malfunction”
warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
NOTE:
If the BSW system stops working, the Blind
Spot Intervention
®(BSI) system (if so
equipped) will also stop working.

BSI SYSTEM OPERATION
The BSI system operates above approxi-
mately 37 MPH (60 km/h).
If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone, the side indicator light
illuminates.
If the turn signal is then activated, the
system chimes (twice) and the side indicator
light flashes. The side indicator light con-
tinues to flash until the detected vehicle
leaves the detection zone.
If the BSI system is ON and your vehicle
approaches a lane marker while another
vehicle is in the detection zone, the system
chimes (three times) and the side indicator
light flashes. Then the BSI system slightly
applies the brakes to help return the vehicle
back to the center of the driving lane. The
BSI system operates regardless of turn
signal usage.
NOTE:
.BSI warning and system application will
only be activated if the side indicator
light is already illuminated when your
vehicle approaches a lane marker. If
another vehicle comes into the detection
zone after your vehicle has crossed a
lane marker, no BSI warning or system
application will be activated. (See “BSI
driving situations” (P.5-47).)
