SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LABELS Warning labels about the supplemental
front air bag and supplemental side air
bag systems are placed in the vehicle as
shown in the illustration. SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT The supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying in the instrument panel,
monitors the circuits of the supplemental
front air bag, supplemental side air bag
and curtain side-impact air bag and pre-
tensioner seat belt systems. The circuits
monitored by the air bag warning light are
the diagnosis sensor unit, satellite sen-
sors, crash zone sensor, front air bag
modules, side air bag modules, curtain
side-impact air bag modules, pre-
tensioner seat belts and all related wiring. When the ignition key is in the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates for about 7 sec-
onds and then turns off. This means the
system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur,
the supplemental front air bag, supple-
mental side air bag and curtain side-
impact air bag, and pre-tensioner seat
belt systems need servicing:
O The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately 7
seconds.
O The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
O The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the supplemental
front air bags, supplemental side air
bags, curtain side-impact air bag or pre-
tensioner seat belt systems may not oper-
ate properly. They must be checked and
repaired. Take your vehicle to the nearest
INFINITI dealer.SSS0330 SPA1097

WARNINGIf the supplemental air bag warning light is
on, it could mean that the supplemental
front air bag, supplemental side air bag, cur-
tain side-impact air bag systems and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt systems will not operate
in an accident. To help avoid injury to your-
self or others, have your vehicle checked by
an INFINITI dealer as soon as possible.
Repair and replacement procedure The supplemental front air bags, supple-
mental side air bags, curtain side-impact
air bags and pre-tensioner seat belts are
designed to activate on a one-time-only
basis. As a reminder, unless it is dam-
aged, the supplemental air bag warning
light remains illuminated after inflation
has occurred. Repair and replacement of
these systems should be done only by an
INFINITI dealer.
When maintenance work is required on
the vehicle, the supplemental front air
bags, side air bags, curtain side-impact
air bags, pre-tensioner seat belts and re-
lated parts should be pointed out to the person performing the maintenance. The
ignition switch should always be in the
LOCK position when working under the
hood or inside the vehicle.
WARNING O Once a supplemental front air bag,
supplemental side air bag or curtain
side-impact air bag has inflated, the air
bag module will not function again and
must be replaced. Additionally, if any of
the supplemental front air bags inflate,
the activated pre-tensioner seat belts
must also be replaced. The air bag
module and pre-tensioner seat belt
system should be replaced by an INFINITI
dealer. The air bag module and pre-
tensioner seat belt system cannot be re-
paired.
O The supplemental front air bag, side air
bag and curtain side-impact air bag sys-
tems, and the pre-tensioner seat belt
system should be inspected by an
INFINITI dealer if there is any damage to
the front end or side portion of the
vehicle. O If you need to dispose of these supple-
mental systems or scrap the vehicle,
contact an INFINITI dealer.
Correct disposal procedures are set forth
in the appropriate INFINITI Service
Manual. Incorrect disposal procedures
could cause personal injury.

CAUTIONIf the gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature near the hot (H) of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
temperature. If gauge is over the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible. If the engine is overheated, contin-
ued operation of the vehicle may seriously
damage the engine. See ªIf your vehicle
overheatsº in the ª6. In case of emergencyº
section for immediate action required.
FUEL GAUGE The gauge indicates the approximate fuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning, acceleration, or going up or
down hill.
The gauge needle is designed to move to
the E (Empty) position when the ignition
key is turned to the OFF position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge regis-
ters the E (Empty) position. The low fuel warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon
as it is convenient, preferably before the
gauge reaches the E (Empty) position.
There will be a small reserve of fuel in the
tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches
the E (Empty) position.
The indicates that the fuel-filler door
is located on the passenger's side of the
vehicle.
CAUTION O If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)
may come on. Refuel as soon as pos-
sible. After a few driving trips, the
lamp should turn off. If the lamp
remains on after a few driving trips, have
the vehicle inspected by an INFINITI
dealer.
O For additional information, see ªMal-
function indicator lamp (MIL)º later in
this section. SIC2562

Zone variation change procedure The difference between magnetic north
and geographical north is known as vari-
ance. In some areas, this difference can
sometimes be great enough to cause
false compass readings. Follow these in-
structions to set the variance for your par-
ticular location if this happens:
1. Establish your location on the zone
map
q A
. Record your zone number.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON po-
sition while pushing the COMP switch.
3. Continue to push the COMP switch for
more than 5 seconds until the current
zone entry number is displayed on the
compass display.
If any operations are not carried out
for more than 5 seconds, the display
shows direction as normal.
4. Push the COMP switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is dis-
played.
Once the desired zone number is dis-
played, stop pushing the COMP switch
and the display will show compass direc-
tion within a few seconds. SIC2243A
