For additional information, refer to the sepa-
rate INFINITI InTouch™ Owner’s Manual and
“Log-in function” in this section.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION

This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and automatic operation steering col-
umn will automatically move when you the
vehicle is engaged in the P (Park) position.
This allows the driver to get into and out of
the driver’s seat more easily.

The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up:

∙ When the driver’s door is opened with the

ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-
tion.

∙ When the ignition is switched OFF with

the driver’s door open.

The driver’s seat and steering wheel will re-
turn to the previous position:

∙ When the ignition is switched ON while

the vehicle is engaged in the P (Park)
position.

The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through “Vehicle Settings” in the
lower touch-screen display by performing the
following:

∙ Switch the Lift Steering Wheel on Exit

from ON to OFF.

∙ Switch the Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit

from ON to OFF.

Restarting the entry/exit function

If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the stored memory positions will
be lost and some of the functions will be
restricted:

1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).

OR

2. Open and close the driver’s door more

than two times with the ignition switch
in the OFF position.

The entry/exit function should now work
properly.

SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION

The position of the following settings can be
linked to the Intelligent Key and the memo-
rized settings can be available for each Intel-
ligent Key.

∙ Climate control system

∙ Navigation system (if so equipped)

∙ Audio system

To use the memory function, set the climate,
navigation and audio systems to the driver’s
preferred settings. Lock the doors with the
Intelligent Key. Each Intelligent Key may be
set with the driver’s individual preferences.
When a new Intelligent Key is used, “Connec-
tion with the key has been done” will be dis-
played on the vehicle information display and
the memorized settings are available.

To engage the memorized settings, perform
the following:

1. Carry the Intelligent Key that is linked to

the memorized settings.

2. Unlock the doors by pushing the driver’s

door handle request switch or the
button on the Intelligent Key.

WARNING

∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-

structions for proper use of the RearView
Monitor system could result in serious in-
jury or death.

∙ RearView Monitor is a convenience fea-

ture and is not a substitute for proper
backing. Always turn and look out the
windows and check mirrors to be sure
that it is safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always back up slowly.

∙ The system is designed as an aid to the

driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to help
avoid damaging the vehicle.

∙ The distance guide line and the vehicle

width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a level paved
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.

CAUTION

Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.

The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle in the upper
touch-screen display (upper display) when
the shift lever is shifted into the R (Reverse)
position. When activating the RearView
Monitor, the guide lines, the icons and the
messages may not be displayed immediately.
The radio can still be heard while the Rear-
View Monitor is active.

To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-
tor system uses a camera located just above
the vehicle’s license plate

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 guidelines (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 position-
ing of objects behind the vehicle.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for
RearView Monitor. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.

∙ The system cannot completely eliminate

blind spots and may not show every
object.

∙ Underneath the bumper and the corner

areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on
the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.

∙ Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor

differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.

LHA4243

Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

4-9

∙ Objects in the RearView Monitor will ap-

pear visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rearview and outside mirrors.

∙ Use the displayed lines as a reference.

The lines are highly affected by the num-
ber of occupants, fuel level, vehicle posi-
tion, road conditions and road grade.

∙ Make sure that the liftgate is securely

closed when backing up.

∙ Do not put anything on the rearview

camera. The rearview camera is installed
above the license plate.

∙ When washing the vehicle with high

pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing water
condensation on the lens, a malfunction,
fire or an electric shock.

∙ Do not strike the camera. It is a precision

instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunc-
tion or cause damage resulting in a fire or
an electric shock.

The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:

∙ When the temperature is extremely high

or low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.

∙ When strong light directly shines on the

camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.

∙ Vertical lines may be seen in objects on

the screen. This is due to strong reflected
light from the bumper.

∙ The screen may flicker under fluorescent

light.

∙ The colors of objects on the RearView

Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.

∙ Objects on the monitor may not be clear

in a dark environment.

∙ There may be a delay when switching

between views.

∙ If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the

camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera.

∙ Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe

off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

CAUTION

∙ Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to

clean

the

camera.

This

will

cause

discoloration.

∙ Do not damage the camera as the moni-

tor screen may be adversely affected.

If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the cam-
era

䊊

WARNING

∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-

structions for the proper use of the
Around View® Monitor system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.

∙ The Around View® Monitor is a conve-

nience feature and is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed.
The four corners of the vehicle in particu-
lar, are areas where objects do not al-
ways appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or
rear views. Always check your surround-
ings to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always op-
erate the vehicle slowly.

∙ The driver is always responsible for

safety

during

parking

and

other

maneuvers.

CAUTION

Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.

The Around View® Monitor system is de-
signed as an aid to the driver in situations
such as slot parking or parallel parking.

The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen format.
Not all views are available at all times.

Available views:

∙ Front View

An approximately 150–degree view of
the front of the vehicle.

∙ Rear View

An approximately 150–degree view of
the rear of the vehicle.

∙ Bird’s-Eye View

The surrounding views of the vehicle
from above.

∙ Front-Side View

The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.

∙ Front-Wide View

An approximately 180–degree view of
the front the vehicle.

∙ Rear-Wide View

An approximately 180–degree view of
the rear of the vehicle.

To display the multiple views, the Around
View® Monitor system uses cameras located

WARNING

∙ The distance guide lines and the vehicle

width lines should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved, level
surface. The apparent distance viewed
on the monitor may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.

∙ Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-eye

view as a reference. The lines and the
bird’s-eye view are greatly affected by
the number of occupants, cargo, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condition and
road grade.

∙ If the tires are replaced with different

sized tires, the predicted course lines and
the bird’s-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.

∙ When driving the vehicle up a hill, objects

viewed in the monitor are further than
they appear. When driving the vehicle
down a hill, objects viewed in the monitor
are closer than they appear.

∙ Objects in the rear view will appear visu-

ally opposite compared to when viewed
in the monitor and outside mirrors.

∙ Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-

erly judge distances to other objects.

∙ On a snow-covered or slippery road,

there may be a difference between the
predicted course lines and the actual
course line.

∙ The vehicle width and predicted course

lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

∙ The displayed lines will appear slightly

off to the right, because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
