O ªSend/Enter/Call/Dialº Ð Use the
Send command to enter numbers dur-
ing a call. For example, if you were di-
rected to dial an extension by an auto-
mated system:
Say: ªSend one two three four.º
The system acknowledges the com-
mand and sends the tones associated
with the numbers. The system then
ends the VR session and returns to
the call.
O ªTransfer callº Ð Use the Transfer Call
command to transfer the call from the
Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone System
to the cellular phone when privacy is
desired.
The system announces, ªTransfer call.
Call transferred to privacy mode.º The
system then ends the VR session.
You can also issue the Transfer Call
command again to return to a hands-
free call through the vehicle.
O ªMuteº Ð Use the Mute command to
mute your voice so the other party
cannot hear it. Use the mute command
again to unmute your voice. NOTE:
If the other party ends the call or the cellu-
lar phone network connection is lost while
the Mute feature is on, the Mute feature
may need to be reset to ªoff.º
ªPhone bookº
The Phone Book stores up to 40 names for
each phone paired with the system. Each
name can have up to 4 locations/phone
numbers associated with it.
NOTE:
Each phone has its own separate phone
book. You cannot access Phone A's phone
book if you are currently connected with
Phone B.
ªNew entryº
q A
Use the New Entry command to store a
new name in the system. When prompted by the system, say the
name you would like to give the new
entry.
For example, say: ªMary.º
If the name is too long or too short, the
system tells you, then prompts you for a
name again.
Also, if the name sounds too much like a
name already stored, the system tells
you, then prompts you for a name again.
Once the system accepts the name and
you confirm it is correct, the system asks
for a location (Home, Office, Mobile or
Other).
For example, say: ªHome.º
The system acknowledges the location
and asks for a number.
For example, say: ªfive five five one
two one two.º See ªHow to say num-
bersº earlier in this section for more
information.
The system repeats the number and
prompts you for the next command. When
you have finished entering numbers,
choose ªStore.º

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously illu-
minated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the in-
stallation of replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the replacement
or alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function properly.
Additional information
O The TPMS does not monitor the tire
pressure of the spare tire.
O The TPMS will activate only when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h). Also, this system may not de- tect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for
example a flat tire while driving).
O Tire pressure rises and falls de-
pending on the heat caused by the ve-
hicle's operation and the outside tem-
perature. Low outside temperature can
lower the temperature of the air inside
the tire which can cause a lower tire
inflation pressure. This may cause the
low tire pressure warning light to illu-
minate. If the warning light illuminates
in low ambient temperature, check the
tire pressure for all four tires.
For additional information, see ªLow tire
pressure warning lightº in the ª2. Instru-
ments and controlsº section and ªTire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)º in
the ª6. In case of emergencyº section.
WARNING O If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates while driving, avoid sudden steering
maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce ve-
hicle speed, pull off the road to a safe loca-
tion and stop the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible. Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could re-
sult in serious personal injury. Check the
tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended COLD
tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If you have
a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as
soon as possible. (See ªFlat tireº in the ª6.
In case of emergencyº section for changing
a flat tire.)
O When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be indi-
cated, the TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light will flash.
Contact your INFINITI dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or sys-
tem resetting.
O Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
O Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors.

Up-shift indicator The manual transmission up-shift indi-
cator is located in the meter and shows
the driver the timing to shift into a higher
gear by illuminating. The use of the up-
shift indicator will help you to upshift at a
constant engine speed (rpm) from any
gear.
The up-shift indicator will start flashing
when the engine speed is within about
500 rpm of the set figure while driving,
and then illuminate after the engine
speed reaches the set figure. Use the up-shift indicator when driving as
follows:
O If the maximum engine speed is de-
sired, set the figure at 7,000 rpm. (The
indicator starts flashing from about
6,500 rpm and comes on steady at
7,000 rpm.)
O If the maximum engine torque is de-
sired, set the figure at 4,800 rpm.
(The indicator starts flashing from
about 4,300 rpm and comes on steady
at 4,800 rpm.)
O If you want to break in your vehicle,
use of the up-shift indicator with a
rather low figure will help you to avoid
the high engine speed.
To make the up-shift indicator not come
on, set the figure at above 7,900 rpm.
There may be a slight difference between
the timing of the up-shift indicator illumi-
nation and the tachometer indication. Up-shift indicator setting:
The desired engine speed (rpm) for the
up-shift indicator can be set while the up-
shift indicator setting mode is selected.
Change the display to the up-shift indica-
tor mode by pushing the trip odometer
reset switch

. When the up-shift indica-
tor setting mode is selected, the engine
speed currently set is displayed. (The ini-
tial factory setting is 8,000 rpm.) The fig-
ure can be changed between 2,000 and
8,000 rpm.SSD0432 SSD0433

Push the trip odometer reset switch more
than approximately 2 seconds and then
the figure in the display will start
blinking.
Pushing the trip odometer reset switch for
less than approximately 1 second while
the figure is blinking will add the figure
by 100 rpm. If pushing for more than ap-
proximately 1 second, the figure will in-
crease by 500 rpm.
If you have not operated the trip odom-
eter reset switch for 5 seconds, the set-
ting mode will end. The display will illumi-
nate instead of blink.
If the battery cable is disconnected, the
set engine speed will be returned to the
initial figure (8,000 rpm).
Suggested up-shift speeds Shown below are suggested vehicle
speeds for shifting into a higher gear.
These suggestions relate to fuel economy
and vehicle performance. Actual up-shift
speeds will vary according to road condi-
tions, the weather and individual driving
habits. For normal acceleration in low altitude ar-
eas [less than 4,000 ft (1,219 m)]:
