Smart Rearview Mirror (if so
equipped)

WARNING

. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use of the
Smart Rearview Mirror could result
in serious injury or death.

— The Smart Rearview Mirror is a

convenience feature but it is not a
substitute for proper vehicle op-
eration. The system has areas
where objects cannot be viewed.
Check the blind spot of the Smart
Rearview Mirror before vehicle
operation. The driver is always
responsible for safe driving.

— Do not disassemble or modify the

Smart Rearview Mirror, the cam-

era unit or wirings. If you do, it
may result in accidents or fire. In
case you notice smoke or smell
coming from the Smart Rearview
Mirror, stop using the system
immediately. It is recommended
that you see an INFINITI retailer
for servicing.

— Do not operate the Smart Rear-

view Mirror while driving. Doing
so can be a distraction and it could
lose control of your vehicle and
cause an accident or serious in-
jury.

— Do not gaze into the Smart Rear-

view Mirror display during driv-
ing. It may cause a distraction and
it could lose control of your vehi-
cle and cause an accident or
serious injury.

— Do not put a cigarette or flames

to the Smart Rearview Mirror, the
camera unit or wirings. It may
cause a fire.

. Be sure to adjust the Smart Rearview

Mirror before driving. Switch the
system to the conventional rearview
mirror mode and be properly seated
on the driver’s seat. Then adjust the
mirror so as to see the rear window

properly. Driving without adjusting
the mirror may cause difficulty in
watching the display at Smart Rear-
view Mirror mode (camera view
mode) due to the reflection from the
surface of the mirror.

. If the Smart Rearview Mirror mal-

functions, immediately switch the
system to the conventional rearview
mirror mode.

. When strong light (for example, sun-

light or high beams from following
vehicles) enters the camera, a light
beam or a glaring light may appear on
the monitor screen of the Smart
Rearview Mirror. In that case, switch
the system to the conventional rear-
view mirror mode appropriately.

. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on

the exterior glass surface covering
the camera, the Smart Rearview
Mirror may not display objects
clearly. Use of the rear window
wiper/washer may improve visibility,
but if not, switch the Smart Rearview
Mirror to the conventional rearview
mirror mode until a time the glass
covering the camera can be cleaned.

Flicker image (example)

. When LED headlights are viewed on the

Smart Rearview Mirror display, the
images may flicker. This is normal.

. Due to diffused reflection from external

environment, images on the screen may
flicker. This is not a malfunction.

. A quick movement of a thing may not be

able to display on the camera view
screen. This is not a malfunction.

. Turn on the headlights at twilight or in a

tunnel, etc.

. The Smart Rearview Mirror mode (cam-

era view mode) display is different from
the conventional rearview mirror. Ob-
jects in the display may differ from

actual distance. Do not solely rely on
the Smart Rearview Mirror. Always rely
on your own operation to avoid acci-
dents.

. If the brightness of the camera view

display is adjusted to excessive bright
level, it may cause an eyestrain in the
driving. Adjust the brightness properly.

. Use the rear window wiper when it rains.

If the camera view image is still unclear
when the rear window wiper is in
operation, check the deterioration of
the rear window wiper blade.

. When using the rear window wiper,

images on the screen may flicker. This
is not a malfunction.

. Defog the rear window with defroster

when rear window is fogged. Use the
conventional rearview mirror mode until
the rear window is fully defogged.

. The display of the Smart Rearview

Mirror may become hot. This is not a
malfunction.

. The color of an object in the distance or

in the dark may be difficult to be
recognized. This is not a malfunction.

System maintenance (Smart Rearview
Mirror):
. Always keep the mirror and camera area

of the rear window clean.

rear window, use a soft cloth dampened
with water and a neutral detergent. Then
dry it with a dry soft cloth.

. If the image on the Smart Rearview

Mirror display screen is still unclear even
after cleaning the camera area of the
rear window, an oil film may be adhering
to the rear window glass. Clean the rear
window glass with an oil film remover.

. Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, or

any similar material to clean the mirror or
camera lens. It will cause a discoloration,
deterioration or a system malfunction.

. Do not attach a sticker (including trans-

parent material) on the camera area of
the rear window.

SET/memory switches

The automatic drive positioner system has
three features:
. Entry/exit function

. Memory storage

. Setting memory function

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION

This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automatically
move when the automatic transmission shift
lever is 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 wheel will move up when the

driver’s door is opened with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions when the
ignition switch is pushed to the ACC posi-
tion.
The driver’s seat will not return to the
previous positions if the seat or steering
adjusting switch is operated when the seat is
at the exit position.

Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion

The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the “Lift Steering Wheel
on Exit” key or “Slide Driver’s Seat Back on
Exit” key is turned to ON or OFF in the
Vehicle settings on the center display. (See
Infiniti InTouch Owner’s Manual.)

Initialize entry/exit function

If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the entry/exit function will not
work though this function was set on before.
In such a case, after connecting the battery

or replacing with a new fuse, open and close
the driver’s door more than two times after
the ignition switch is turned from the ON
position to the LOCK position. The entry/
exit function will be activated.

MEMORY STORAGE

Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored in
the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the memory
system.
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)

position.

2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column

and outside mirrors to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjust-
ing switch. For additional information,
see “Seats” (P.1-3) and “Tilt/telescopic
steering” (P.3-29) and “Outside mirrors”
(P.3-36).

3. Push the SET switch and, within 5

seconds, push the memory switch (1 or
2) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed mem-
ory switch will stay on for approximately
5 seconds after pushing the switch.
When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same memory

Confirming memory storage

. Push the ignition switch to the ON

position and push the SET switch. If the
main memory has not been stored, the
indicator light will come on for approxi-
mately 0.5 second. When the memory
has stored in position, the indicator light
will stay on for approximately 5 seconds.

. If the battery cable is disconnected, or if

the fuse opens, the memory will be
canceled. In this case, reset the desired
position using the previous procedure.

. If optional Intelligent Keys are added to

your vehicle, the memory storage proce-
dure to switch 1 or 2 and linking
Intelligent Key procedure to a stored
memory position should be performed
again for each Intelligent Key. For addi-
tional Intelligent Key information, see
“Keys” (P.3-2).

the light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.

SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION

The status of the following settings can be
linked to the Intelligent Key and the memor-
ized settings can be available for each
Intelligent Key.
