Operation Manual

– When abruptly accelerating or
decelerating.
– On a steep downhill slope or on roads
with sharp curves.
– When there is a highly reflective object
near the vehicle ahead (i.e., being very
close to another vehicle, signboard, etc.)
– When you are towing a trailer.
● Depending on certain road conditions
(curved or beginning of a curve), vehicle con-
ditions (steering position or vehicle posi-
tion), or the preceding vehicle’s conditions
(position in lane, etc.), the system may not
function properly. The system may detect
highly reflective objects such as reflectors,
signs, white markers, and other stationary
objects on the road or near the traveling lane
and provide unnecessary warning.
● The system may not function in offset
conditions.
● The system may not function when the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead is extremely
close.
● The system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s functionality. If the sen-
sor is covered with ice, a transparent or
translucent plastic bag, etc., the system may
not detect them. In these instances the sys-
tem may not be able to warn the driver prop-
erly. Be sure to check and clean the sensor
regularly.
● Excessive noise will interfere with the warn-
ing chime sound, and the chime may not be
heard.
● A sudden appearance of a vehicle in front
(i.e., it abruptly cuts in) may not be detected
and the system may not warn the driver soon
enough.
● The system will be cancelled automatically
with a beep sound and the IBA OFF indicator
light will illuminate under the following
conditions:
– When the sensor window is dirty
– When the system malfunctions
If the IBA OFF indicator light
䊊
A
illuminates with
a beep sound, pull off the road to a safe
location, stop the vehicle and turn the engine
off. Check to see if the sensor window is dirty.
If the sensor window is dirty, clean it with a soft
cloth and restart the engine. If the sensor
window is not dirty, restart the engine. If the
IBA OFF indicator light continues to illuminate
even if the IBA system is turned on with the IBA
OFF switch
䊊

, have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
To turn on the IBA system, see “INTELLIGENT
BRAKE ASSIST (IBA) SYSTEM” later in this sec-
tion.
