1. Push the button on the steering
wheel. The system announces the
available commands.
2. Say: ªSetupº
q A
. The system acknowl-
edges the command and announces
the next set of available commands.

q B
. The system ac-
knowledges the command and an-
nounces the next set of available com-
mands.
4. Say: ªNew phoneº
q C
. The system ac-
knowledges the command and asks
you to initiate pairing from the phone
handset
q D
.
When you are asked to enter a PIN
code for pairing your Bluetooth cellu- lar phone, operate it to enter the code
ª1234º.
The code is always ª1234º regardless
of the number of phones paired.
The pairing procedure of the cellular
phone varies according to each cel-
lular phone manufacturer. See the cel-
lular phone Owner's Manual for de-
tails. You can also visit
www.infiniti.com/bluetooth for in-
structions on pairing INFINITI recom-
mended cellular phones.

the phone
q E
.
If the name is too long or too short,
the system tells you, then prompts
you for a name again.
Also, if more than one phone is paired
and the name sounds too much like a
name already used, the system tells
you, then prompts you for a name
again.
6. The system asks you to assign a prior-
ity level
q F
. The priority level deter-
mines which phone is active when
more than one paired Bluetooth
phone is in the vehicle. Follow the in-
structions provided by the system or

pairing your Bluetooth cellular phone, op-
erate it to enter the code ª1234º.
The code is always ª1234º regardless of
the number of phones paired.
Up to 5 phones can be paired. If you try to
pair a sixth phone, the system announces that you must first delete one phone or
replace an existing phone.
If you try to pair a phone that has already
been paired to your vehicle's system, the
system announces the name the phone is
already using. The pairing procedure will
then be cancelled.
When prompted by the system, choose
from the following commands:
O ªNew phoneº Ð Refer to ªPairing a
phoneº earlier in this section.
O ªReplace phoneº Ð The system an-
nounces the names of the phones al-
ready paired and asks which you

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.
