SGI989
2WD MODELSNBGI0008S0402INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving (rear)
wheels off the ground as illustrated.
CAUTION:
IWhen towing manual or automatic transmission models
with the front wheels on the ground: Turn the ignition key
to the OFF position and secure the steering wheel in a
straightahead position with a rope or similar device. Never
place the ignition key in the LOCK position. This will result
in damage to the steering lock mechanism.
IWhen towing manual transmission models with the rear
wheels on the ground or four wheels on the ground (if you
do not use towing dollies): Always release the parking
brake and move the transmission shift lever to the N (neu-
tral) position.
Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
Manual transmission models:
ISpeed: Below 95 km/h (60 MPH)
IDistance: Less than 800 km (500 miles)
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the
propeller shaft beforehand to prevent damage to the transmission.
SGI950
4WD MODELSNBGI0008S0403INFINITI recommends that a dolly or a flat bed truck be used as
illustrated when towing all-mode 4WD models.

nismCheck that the lock release button on the selector lever operates properly
and smoothly. On a fairly steep hill check that the vehicle is held securely
with the selector lever in the ªPº position without applying any brakes.Ð
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically (e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel).
ItemReference page
Windshield washer
fluidCheck that there is adequate fluid in the tank. Ð
Engine coolant levelCheck the coolant level when the engine is cold. MA-15
Radiator and hosesCheck the front of the radiator and clean off any dirt, insects, leaves, etc.,
that may have accumulated. Make sure the hoses have no cracks,
deformation, deterioration or loose connections.Ð
Brake fluid levelsMake sure that the brake fluid levels are between the ªMAXº and ªMINº lines
on the reservoir.MA-25
BatteryCheck the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the ªMAXº and ªMINº
lines.Ð
Engine drive beltsMake sure that no belt is frayed, worn, cracked or oily. MA-13
Engine oil levelCheck the level on the dipstick after parking the vehicle on a level spot and
turning off the engine.MA-18
Power steering fluid
level and linesCheck the level on the dipstick with the engine off. Check the lines for
improper attachment, leaks, cracks, etc.MA-27
Automatic transmis-
sion fluid levelCheck the level on the dipstick after putting the selector lever in ªPº with the
engine idling.MA-21
Exhaust systemMake sure there are no loose supports, cracks or holes. If the sound of the
exhaust seems unusual or there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immediately
locate the trouble and correct it.MA-21
UnderbodyThe underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those
used on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these
substances, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and
around the exhaust system. At the end of winter, the underbody should be
thoroughly flushed with plain water, being careful to clean those areas where
mud and dirt can easily accumulate.Ð
Fluid leaksCheck under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the
vehicle has been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner
after use is normal. If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are
evident, check for the cause and correct it immediately.Ð
