Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system
– warns the driver with a warning light and
chime, and helps assist the driver to re-
turn the vehicle to the center direction of
the traveling lane by applying brake con-
trol to the left or right wheels individually
(for a short period of time).
The LDW and LDP systems monitor the lane
markers on the traveling lane using the camera
unit

located above the inside mirror. When the
camera unit detects that the vehicle is traveling
close to either the left or the right of the traveling
lane, the Lane departure warning indicator light
on the instrument panel blinks in orange and a
warning chime sounds. When the LDP system is
on, it will automatically apply the brakes for a
short period of time, using the function of the
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system.
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM
Precautions on LDW system
WARNING
●
This system is only a warning device to
inform the driver of a potential unin-
tended lane departure. It 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 system will not operate at speeds
below approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h)
or if it cannot detect lane markers.
●
If the LDW system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically, and the “Please
see owner’s manual” will appear in the
meter display.
●
If the “Please see owner’s manual” ap-
pears in the meter display, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the
vehicle. Place the shift selector into the
P (Park) position and the ignition switch
into the off position and restart the en-
gine.
If
the
“Please
see
owner’s
manual” continues to appear in the me-
ter display, have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer.
●
Excessive noise will interfere with the
warning chime sound, and the chime
may not be heard.
The system may not function properly under the
following conditions:
●
On roads where there are multiple parallel
lane markers; lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow painted lane
markers; non-standard lane markers; or lane
markers covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
●
On roads where the discontinued lane mark-
ers are still detectable.
●
On roads where there are sharp curves.
