 to BCM terminals 49 and 52
 through grounds M35, M45 and M85,
 to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 60
 through grounds E21, E50 and E51.
FRONT FOG LAMP OPERATION
The front fog lamp switch is built into combination s witch. The lighting switch must be in the 2ND position or
AUTO position (headlamp is ON) and the front fog lamp switch must be ON for front fog lamp operation.
With the front fog lamp switch in the ON position, t he CPU located in the IPDM E/R grounds the coil side of the
front fog lamp relay. The front fog lamp relay then directs power
 through IPDM E/R terminal 36
 to front fog lamp RH terminal 1,
 through IPDM E/R terminal 37
 to front fog lamp LH terminal 1.
Ground is supplied
 to front fog lamp RH and LH terminals 2
 through grounds E21, E50 and E51.
With power and grounds supplied, front fog lamps illuminate.
COMBINATION SWITCH READING FUNCTION
Refer to BCS-4, "System Description".
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 2ND position (ON), the front fog lamp switch is ON, and
the ignition switch is turned from ON or ACC to OF F, the battery saver control feature is activated.
Under this condition, the front fog lamps (and headlamps ) remain illuminated for 5 minutes, then the front fog
lamps (and headlamps) are turned off.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-III.
CAN Communication System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328329
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication li ne for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
(1) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, inspect every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 12 months. Replace the drive belts if found
damaged or if the auto belt tensioner reading (only for VK45DE engine) reaches the maximum limit.
(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance may be required.
(3) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, refer to FL section.
(4) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, replace every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
(5) If valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
* Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by INFINITI for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perfo rm
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and inter vals are
required.

NOTE:
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) fl uid (A/T, trans-
fer)/oil at every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months. Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine Nissan Matic J
ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmis-
sion, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited warranty.
(2) Refer to “Tire rotation” under the “GENERAL MAINTENANCE” heading earlier in this section.

*2: Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and
automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the INFINITI new
vehicle limited warranty.
*3: For hot climates, viscosity SAE 90 is suitable for ambient temperatures above 0 °C (32 °F).
*4: Canada NISSAN Au tomatic Transmission Fluid or DEXRON

Engine Oil RecommendationINFOID:0000000001328898
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conser ving oil in order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubri-
cant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils
have the API certification mark on the front of the c ontainer. Oils which do not have the specified quality label
should not be used as they could cause engine damage.
