Infiniti G37 Convertible (2010) [315/444] Vehicle to vehicle distance control mode operation
VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE OPERATION
Always pay attention to the operation of the
vehicle and be ready to manually control the
proper following distance. The vehicle-to-
vehicle distance control mode of the Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system may not be able to
maintain the selected distance between ve-
hicles (following distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances.
The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
uses a sensor
A
located on the front of the
vehicle to detect vehicles traveling ahead. The
sensor generally detects the signals returned
from the reflectors on a vehicle ahead. There-
fore, if the sensor cannot detect the reflector on
the vehicle ahead, the ICC system may not
maintain the selected distance.
The following are some conditions in which the
sensor cannot detect the signals:
When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is
positioned high on the vehicle (trailer, etc.)
When the reflector on the vehicle ahead is
missing, damaged or covered
When the reflector of the vehicle ahead is
covered with dirt, snow and road spray
When the snow or road spray from traveling
vehicles reduces the sensor’s visibility
When dense exhaust or other smoke (black
smoke) from vehicles reduces the sensor’s
visibility
When excessively heavy baggage is loaded
in the rear seat or the trunk of your vehicle
The ICC system is designed to automatically
check the sensor’s operation within the limita-
tions of the system. When the sensor is covered
with dirt or obstructs, the system will automati-
cally be canceled. If the sensor is covered with
ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl bag, etc.,
the ICC system may not detect them. In these
instances, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode may not cancel and may not be able
to maintain the selected following distance
from the vehicle ahead. Be sure to check and
clean the sensor regularly.
