The seatback may also be reclined to
allow occupants to rest when the vehicle
is parked.
WARNINGO Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. You could also
slide under the lap belt and receive se-
rious internal injuries.
O For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat and adjust the seat belt properly.
See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº
later in this section.
O After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
Folding Sedan:
The rear center seatback can be folded to
allow access to the trunk from inside the
vehicle. To access the trunk:

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

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.

function indicator lamp (MIL)º later in

CAUTIONRunning the engine with the engine oil pres-
sure warning light on could cause serious
damage to the engine almost immediately.
Turn off the engine as soon as it is safe to do
so.
Intelligent Key warning light
(for Intelligent Key system)This light comes on in green when it is
possible to turn the ignition switch.
When the light comes on in red, it is not
possible to turn the switch.
O The warning light blinks in red when
the Intelligent Key is outside the ve-
hicle with the ignition switch in the
ACC or ON position. Confirm the loca-
tion of the key as soon as possible
when the warning light blinks in red.
Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key
with you while driving the vehicle.
O The warning light goes off about 10
seconds after the Intelligent Key is
brought inside the vehicle. Low fuel warning light This light comes on when the fuel in the
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel
gauge reaches the E (Empty) position.
There will be a small reserve of fuel re-
maining in the fuel tank when the fuel
gauge needle reaches the E (Empty) posi-
tion.
Low tire pressure warning
light Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) that moni-
tors the tire pressure of all tires except
the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns
of low tire pressure or indicates that the
TPMS is not functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is turned ON, this
light illuminates for about 1 second and
turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label to turn the light
OFF.
For additional information, see ªTire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS)º in the ª5.
Starting and drivingº section and in the
ª6. In case of emergencyº section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly,
the low tire pressure warning light will
flash for approximately 1 minute when the
ignition switch is turned ON. The light will
remain on after the 1 minute. Have the
system checked by an INFINITI dealer.
For additional information, see ªTire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS)º in the ª5.
Starting and drivingº section.
WARNING O If the light does not illuminate with the
ignition switch turned ON, have the ve-
hicle checked by an INFINITI dealer as
soon as possible.

O If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Se-
rious vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could result
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 the light
still comes on while driving after ad-
justing the tire pressure, a tire may be
flat. If you have a flat tire, replace it with
a spare tire as soon as possible.
O
When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated,
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 system resetting.
O Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS. CAUTION O The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
O If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
O Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the four wheels correctly.
Low washer fluid warning
light This light comes on when the washer tank
fluid is at a low level. Add washer fluid as
necessary. See ªWindow washer fluidº in
the ª8. Maintenance and do-it-yourselfº
section.
P position selecting warning
light (for Intelligent Key
system) The light blinks in red when the selector
lever is not in the P (Park) position and
you are outside the vehicle with the Intel-
ligent Key. When the warning light blinks, move the
selector lever to P position and return the
ignition switch to the LOCK position.
Rear Active Steer (RAS)
warning light (if so
equipped) If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate that there is a
malfunction with the Rear Active Steer
(RAS) portion of the steering system. Have
the system checked by an INFINITI dealer.
For further information about the RAS sys-
tem, see ªRear Active Steer (RAS) systemº
in the ª5. Starting and drivingº section.
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the
RAS function will cease but driving can be
continued.
If the light comes on while you are driving,
contact an INFINITI dealer for repair.
