●Avoid using power outlet when the air condi-
tioner, headlights or rear window defroster
is on.
● This power outlet is not designed for use
with a cigarette lighter unit.
● Push the plug in as far as it will go. If good
contact is not made, the plug may overheat
or the internal temperature fuse may blow.
● Before inserting or disconnecting a plug, be
sure the electrical accessory being used is
turned OFF.
● When not in use, be sure to close the cap. Do
not allow water to contact the outlet.
FRONT
To open the ashtray lid, push the lid down and
release it
1.
To empty the ashtray, pull out
2.
The cigarette lighter operates when the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
Push the lighter in all the way
3, then release
it. When the lighter is heated, it will spring out.
Return the lighter to its original position after
use.
CAUTION
● The cigarette lighter socket is a power
source for the cigarette lighter element only.
The use of the cigarette lighter socket as a
power source for any other accessory is not
recommended.
● Do not use any other power outlet for an
accessory lighter.

Confirming memory storage
●Push the ignition switch to the ON position
and push the SET switch. If the main memory
has not been stored, the indicator light will
come on for approximately 0.5 second.
When the memory has stored in position, the
indicator light will stay on for approximately
5 seconds.
● If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the memory will be canceled. In
this case, reset the desired position using
the previous procedure.
● If optional Intelligent Keys are added to your
vehicle, the memory storage procedure to
switch 1 or 2 and linking Intelligent Key
procedure to a stored memory position
should be performed again for each Intelli-
gent Key. For additional Intelligent Key infor-
mation, see “KEYS” earlier in this section.
Selecting the memorized position
1. Automatic transmission models:
Move the selector lever to the P (Park)
position.
Manual transmission models:
Apply the parking brake.
2. Raise the seatback.
3. Use one of the following methods to move
the driver’s seat, the outside mirrors and
the steering wheel.
●Push the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion and push the memory switch (1 or 2)
fully for at least 1 second.
● Within 45 seconds of opening the driver’s
door, push the memory switch (1 or 2)
fully for at least 1 second.
The driver’s seat, steering column and
outside mirrors will move to the memo-
rized position with the indicator light
flashing, and then the light will stay on for
approximately 5 seconds.
For manual transmission models, the memory
positions can be selected even when the engine
is running. In this case, move the shift lever to
the N (Neutral) position and apply the parking
brake. Then, perform step 2.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will not
work or will stop operating under the following
conditions:
● When the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7
km/h).
● When the adjusting switch for the driver’s
seat and steering column is turned on while
the automatic drive positioner is operating.
● When the memory switch 1 or 2 is not
pushed for at least 1 second.
● When the seat, steering column and outside
mirrors have already been moved to the
memorized position.
● When no position is stored in the memory
switch.
● When the parking brake is released (MT
models).
● When the speed is above 4 MPH (7 km/h)
while the parking brake is applied (MT mod-
els).
To restart the drive positioner system, move
the parking brake to off and on.
● When the engine is started while moving the
automatic drive positioner.

During satellite radio reception, the following
notices will be displayed under certain condi-
tions.
●NO SIGNAL (No signal is received while the
SAT tuner is connected.)
● OFF AIR (Broadcasting signed off)
● CHECK ANTENNA (Antenna connection error)
● LOADING (When the initial setting is per-
formed)
● UPDATING (When the satellite radio sub-
scription is not active)
SCAN tuning
Push the SCAN tuning button to tune from low
to high frequencies and stop at each broadcast-
ing station/channel for 5 seconds. Pushing the
button again during this 5 seconds period will
stop SCAN tuning and the radio will remain
tuned to that station/channel.
If the SCAN tuning button is not pushed within
5 seconds, SCAN tuning moves to the next
station/channel.
1to6Station memory operations
12 stations/channels can be set for the FM band
(6 each for FM1 and FM2), 18 for XM radio (6
each for XM1, XM2 and XM3) and 6 stations can
be set for the AM band.
1. Choose the radio band using the radio band select button.
2. Tune to the desired station/channel using the SEEK·CAT, TRACK, SCAN button or the
radio TUNE knob.
3. Push and hold the desired station preset button
1to6until the radio mutes.
4. The station indicator will then come on and the sound will resume. Memorizing is
now complete.
5. Other buttons can be set in the same manner.
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the radio memory will be erased. In
that case, reset the desired stations/channels.
List (AM and FM radio) (models with navigation
system)
When the “List” key on the display is selected
while the FM or AM radio is being played, the
preset station list will be displayed.
If 1 of the 6 preset stations listed is touched and
held, the current station will be stored as the
new preset. Menu (XM Satellite Radio) (models with naviga-
tion system)
When the “Menu” key on the display is selected
while the XM Satellite Radio is being played,
the menu list will be displayed.
The following items are available.
●
Preset List
Displays the preset channel list. If 1 of the 6
preset stations listed is touched and held,
the current station will be stored as the new
preset.
● Customize Channel List
Selects specific channels to skip while using
the TUNE, SEEK/CATEGORY or Menu-
Categories feature.
● Favorite Artists & Songs
Stores the current artist or song that is being
played. Touch the “Alert” key to be reminded
when the stored artist or song is playing on
a station while listening to XM.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.
SymptomSolution
System fails to interpret the com-
mand correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. (See “INFINITI VOICE RECOGNITION SYSTEM (models with navigation system)”
later in this section; page 4-102.)
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the
vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on). NOTE: If it is
too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
The system consistently selects the
wrong voicetag. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “VEHICLE PHONEBOOK” earlier in
this section.)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in this guide for
the appropriate error.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.
Symptom/error messageSolution
Displays “COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED” or the
system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “Command List” earlier in this section.
2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.
3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive, for example, windows open or defrost on.
NOTE:
If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.
4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these
in place.
The system consistently selects the wrong voic-
etag in the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “BLUETOOTH
HANDS-
FREE PHONE SYSTEM (models with navigation system)” earlier in this section; page 4-78.)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.
The system cannot be operated. 1. Make sure that the soft top is usable. If the soft top is not working, contact an INFINITI retailer. 2. Close the retractable hard top.
3. Open and close the retractable hard top before operating the system.
