WARNINGDo not disassemble the horn. Doing so
could affect proper operation of the
supplemental front air bag system. Tam-
pering with the supplemental front air
bag system may result in serious per-

The switches located on the center console
can be operated independently of each other.

2. Select heat range.
O For low heat, press the (Low) side
of the switch.
O For high heat, press the (High)
side of the switch.
O For no heat, the switch has a center OFF
position between low and high.
The indicator light in the switch will illumi- nate when low or high is selected.
The heater is controlled by a thermostat,
automatically turning the heater on and off.
The indicator light will remain on as long as
the switch is on.

heater is operated while the engine is
not running.
O Do not use the seat heater for ex-
tended periods or when no one is
using the seat.
O Do not put anything on the seat which
insulates heat, such as a blanket,
cushion, seat cover, etc. Otherwise,
the seat may become overheated.
O Do not place anything hard or heavy
on the seat or pierce it with a pin or

O Any liquid spilled on the heated seat
should be removed immediately with
a dry cloth.
O When cleaning the seat, never use
gasoline, thinner, or any similar ma-
terials.
O If any abnormalities are found or the
heated seat does not operate, turn
the switch off and have the system
checked by your INFINITI retailer.
The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamics Control (VDC) System ON for most
driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the
floor. If maximum engine power is needed to
free a stuck vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To cancel the Vehicle Dynamics Control Sys-
tem (VDC), push the VDC OFF switch to turn
off the system. The indicator will come
on. Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn ON the system. See ªVehicle
dynamics control system (VDC)º in the ª5.
