2009 Infiniti FX50 AWD: Silence, Please

2009 infiniti fx50 beepThe only thing better than being able to turn off warning chimes associated with back-up cameras and other safety features in today's high-tech-laden cars is being able to turn them off without digging through a bunch of confusing menu pages.

Our Infiniti FX50 makes it oh-so-easy to silence the beep. When you put the car in reverse, this screen automatically comes up. Don't want to listen to the beeping? Hit the virtual button labeled "beep" and all's quiet on the reversing front. It's just that easy.

Do you have to do that every time you put it in reverse or does it save that setting?

Can you turn on those cameras any other time or just in reverse? Would be handy pulling into a spot with a high curb.

@alex4514: If you mute it once, it stays muted.

@jeepsrt: You can turn it on anytime by pressing the "Camera" button underneath the screen. But you have to be going slower than 5mph, and once you go over 5mph the cameras turn off.
