2006 INFINITI G35 tire pressure

WARNINGNever connect a trailer brake system directly
to the vehicle brake system.
Pre-towing tips O Be certain your vehicle maintains a
level position when a loaded and/or
unloaded trailer is hitched. Do not
drive the vehicle if it has an abnormal
nose-up or nose-down condition;
check for improper tongue load, over-
load, worn suspension or other pos-
sible causes of either condition.
O Always secure items in the trailer to
prevent load shifts while driving.
O Load the trailer so approximately 60%
of the trailer load is in the front half
and 40% is in the back half.
O Check your hitch, trailer tire pressure,
vehicle tire pressure, trailer light op-
eration, and trailer wheel lug nuts
every time you attach a trailer to the
vehicle.
O Be certain your rear view mirrors con-
form to all federal, state or local regula- tions. If not, install any mirrors required
for towing before driving the vehicle.
Trailer towing tips In order to gain skill and an under-
standing of the vehicle's behavior, you
should practice turning, stopping and
backing up in an area which is free from
traffic. Steering stability, and braking per-
formance will be somewhat different than
under normal driving conditions.
O Always secure items in the trailer to
prevent load shift while driving.
O Avoid abrupt starts, acceleration or
stops.
O Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
O Always drive your vehicle at a mod-
erate speed. Some states or provinces
have specific speed limits for vehicles
that are towing trailers. Obey the local
speed limits.
O When backing up, hold the bottom of
the steering wheel with one hand.
Move your hand in the direction in
which you want the trailer to go. Make
small corrections and back up slowly.
If possible, have someone guide you
when you are backing up. O Always block the wheels on both vehicle
and trailer when parking. Parking on a
slope is not recommended; however, if
you must do so, and if your vehicle is
equipped with automatic transmission,
first apply the parking brake and block
the wheels, and then move the transmis-
sion selector lever into the P (Park) posi-
tion. If you move the selector lever to
the P (Park) position before applying the
parking brake and blocking the wheels,
transmission damage could occur.
O When going down a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use the engine braking
effect. When going up a long grade,
downshift the transmission to a lower
gear and reduce speed to reduce
chances of engine overloading and/or
overheating.
However, for long steep grades, do
not stay in 1st or 2nd gear when
driving above 35 MPH (56 km/h).
O If the engine coolant rises to an ex-
tremely high temperature when the air
conditioning system is on, turn off the
air conditioner. Coolant heat can be
additionally vented by opening the
windows, switching the fan control to
high and setting the temperature con-
trol to the HOT position.

Your vehicle is equipped with a variety of
computers that monitor and control a
number of systems to optimize perfor-
mance and help service technicians with
diagnosis and repair. Some of the com-
puters monitor emission control systems,
braking systems, engine systems, trans-
mission systems, tire pressure systems,
and air bag systems. Some data about ve-
hicle operation may be stored in the com-
puters for use during servicing. Other
data may be stored if a crash event oc-
curs. For example, vehicle speed, brake
application, steering angle, air bag readi-
ness, air bag performance, and seat belt
use by the driver or passenger may be re-
corded. These types of systems are some-
times called Event Data Recorders. Special equipment can be used to access
the electronic data that may be stored in
the vehicle's computers (sounds are not
recorded). INFINITI and INFINITI dealers
have equipment to access some of this
data; others may also have this equip-
ment. The data may be retrieved during
routine vehicle servicing or for special re-
search. It might also be accessed with the
consent of the vehicle owner or lessee, in
response to a request by law enforce-
ment, or as otherwise required or permit-
ted by law. A genuine INFINITI Service Manual is the
best source of service and repair informa-
tion for your vehicle. Filled with wiring
diagrams, illustrations and step-by-step
diagnostic and adjustment procedures,
this manual is the same one used by the
factory trained technicians working at an
INFINITI dealer. Also available are genuine
INFINITI Owner's Manuals, and genuine
INFINITI Service and Owner's Manuals for
older INFINITI models.

FUEL RECOMMENDATION:
Sedan models Use unleaded regular gasoline with an oc-
tane rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock
Index) number (Research octane number
91).
For improved vehicle performance,
INFINITI recommends the use of unleaded
premium gasoline with an octane rating of
at least 91 AKI number (Research octane
number 96).
Coupe models Use unleaded premium gasoline with an
octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) number (Research octane
number 96).
If premium gasoline is not available, un-
leaded regular gasoline with an octane
rating of 87 AKI number (Research octane
number 91) may be temporarily used, but
only under the following precautions:
O Have the fuel tank filled only partially
with unleaded regular gasoline, and
fill up with unleaded premium gaso-
line as soon as possible.
O Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt
acceleration. However, for maximum vehicle perfor-
mance, the use of unleaded premium gaso-
line is recommended.
CAUTION O Using a fuel other than that specified
could adversely affect the emission con-
trol system, and may also affect the war-
ranty coverage.
O Under no circumstances should a leaded
gasoline be used, because this will dam-
age the three-way catalyst.
O Do not use E-85 fuel in your vehicle. Your
vehicle is not designed to run on E-85
fuel. Using E-85 fuel can damage the fuel
system components and is not covered
by the INFINITI vehicle limited warranty.
For additional information, see ªCapaci-
ties and recommended fuel/lubricantsº in
the ª9. Technical and consumer informa-
tionº section.
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION: O API Certification Mark O API grade SG/SH, Energy Conserving I
& II or API grade SJ or SL, Energy Con-
serving
O ILSAC grade GF-I, GF-II & GF-III
O SAE 5W-30 viscosity oil is preferred for
all ambient temperatures. SAE 10W-30
viscosity oil may be used for ambient
temperatures above 0ÉF (þ18ÉC).
See ªCapacities and recommended fuel/
lubricantsº in the ª9. Technical and con-
sumer informationº section for engine oil
and oil filter recommendation.
COLD TIRE PRESSURES: See Tire and Loading Information label af-
fixed to the inside of the driver side
center pillar.
NEW VEHICLE BREAK-IN
PROCEDURES RECOMMENDATION: During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of
vehicle use, follow the recommendations
outlined in the ªBreak-in scheduleº Infor-
mation found in the ª5. Starting and driv-
ingº section of this Owner's Manual.
Follow these recommendations for the fu-
ture reliability and economy of your new
vehicle.GAS STATION INFORMATION
