Special Repair Requirement (Vehicle-To-Vehicle Distance Control Mode)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Infiniti EX35. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • When there is no vehicle ahead, drive at the set speed steadily.
  • When there is a vehicle ahead, control to maintain distance from the vehicle ahead, watching its speed.
  • The running speed can be set between 40 km/h (25 MPH) and 144 km/h (90 MPH).
CAUTION: Never set the cruise speed exceeding the posted speed limit.
  1. CHECK FOR MAIN SWITCH 
    1. Start engine.
    2. Press the MAIN switch (1) for less than 1.5 seconds.
    3. Check the ICC system display in the combination meter to check that the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is ready for activation.

    4. Press the MAIN switch, and check that the ICC system display turns off when the ICC system is deactivated.
    5. Check that the ICC system display turns off after starting the engine again.

    GO TO  2.

  2. CHECK FOR DISTANCE SWITCH 
    1. Start engine.
    2. Press the MAIN switch for less than 1.5 seconds.

      NOTE: The set distance indicator shows (Long) immediately after the engine starts.

    GO TO  3.

  3. CHECK FOR RESUME/ACCELERATE, SET/COAST, CANCEL SWITCHES 
    1. Check if RESUME/ACCELERATE, SET/COAST, CANCEL switches are operated smoothly.
    2. Check if switches come up as hand is released from the switches.

    GO TO  4.

  4. SET CHECKING 
    1. Start engine.
    2. Press the MAIN switch for less than 1.5 seconds.
    3. Drive the vehicle at 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more.
    4. Push down the SET/COAST switch.
    5. Confirm that the desired speed is set as hand is released from the SET/COAST switch.
      NOTE: The set vehicle speed is displayed on the ICC system display.

    GO TO  5.

  5. CHECK FOR INCREASE OF CRUISING SPEED 
    1. Set vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode at desired speed.
    2. Check if the set speed increases by 1 km/h (1 MPH) as RESUME/ACCELERATE switch is pushed up.
      NOTE: The maximum set speed of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is 144 km/h (90 MPH).
      CAUTION: Never set the cruise speed exceeding the posted speed limit.

    GO TO  6.

  6. CHECK FOR DECREASE OF CRUISING SPEED 
    1. Set vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode at desired speed.
    2. Check if the set speed decreases by 1 km/h (1 MPH) as SET/COAST switch is pushed down.
      NOTE:
      • Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically cancelled when the driving speed lowers to 32 km/h (20 MPH) due to the deceleration of the vehicle ahead.
      • The minimum set speed of the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is 40 km/h (25 MPH).

    GO TO  7.

  7. CHECK FOR CANCELLATION OF VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE 

    Check that the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is canceled when performing the following operations.

    • When the brake pedal is depressed after the system is turned ON.
    • When the selector lever is shifted to the "N" range.
    • When the MAIN switch is turned OFF.
    • When CANCEL switch is operated.

    GO TO  8.

  8. CHECK FOR RESTORING SPEED THAT IS SET BY VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE CONTROL MODE BEFORE CANCELLATION 

    Check that the vehicle restores the previous speed kept before the system deactivation when performing the following operations.

    • Cancel the system by depressing the brake pedal. Then check if the speed before cancellation is restored when pushing up RESUME/ACCELERATE switch with 40 km/h (25 MPH) or above.
    • Shift the selector lever to the "N" range to cancel the system. Then shift the selector lever back to the "D" range. Check that the vehicle restores the previous speed kept before the system deactivation when pushing up the RESUME/ACCELERATE switch while the vehicle speed is 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more.
    • Press the CANCEL switch to cancel the system. Then check that the vehicle restores the previous speed kept before the system deactivation when pushing up the RESUME/ACCELERATE switch while the vehicle speed is 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more.
