After the ignition switch is pushed 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. If
you select the tire pressure information in the
display, the LOW PRESSURE information will be
displayed. The tire pressure for each tire will
also be displayed.
When the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates, you should stop and adjust the tire
pressure to the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure shown on the Tire and Loading Information
label. The low tire pressure warning light does
not automatically turn off when the tire pres-
sure is adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure
gauge to check the tire pressure.
For additional information, see ªTIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)º in the ª5. Start-
ing and drivingº section and ªTIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)º in the ª6. In case
of emergencyº section. For the tire pressure
information display, see ªHOW TO USE INFO
BUTTONº in the ª4. Monitor, climate, audio,
phone and voice recognition systemsº section.TPMS malfunction :
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is
pushed ON. The light will remain on after 1
minute. Have the system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
For additional information, see ªTIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)º in the ª5. Start-
ing and drivingº section.
WARNING
c
If the light does not illuminate with the igni-
tion switch pushed ON, have the vehicle
checked by an INFINITI retailer as soon as
possible. c
If the light illuminates while driving, avoid
sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt brak-
ing, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon
as possible. Driving with under-inflated tires
may permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and may lead to
an accident and could result in serious per-
sonal injury. Check the tire pressure for all
four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the rec-
ommended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label to turn
the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If the
light stays on after adjusting the tire pres-
sure and driving over 16 MPH (25 km/h), have
the system checked by an INFINITI retailer. If
you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare
tire as soon as possible.
c 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 for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. Contact your INFINITI retailer
as soon as possible for tire replacement
and/or system resetting.

10. Intelligent Key battery discharge
indicator
This indicator appears when the Intelligent Key
battery is running out of power.
If this indicator appears, replace the battery
with a new one. (See ªBATTERY REPLACEMENTº
in the ª8. Maintenance and do-it-yourselfº sec-
tion.)Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
cVehicle security system
c INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual and
audio alarm signals if someone opens the
doors, hood, or trunk lid when the system is
armed. It is not, however, a motion detection
type system that activates when a vehicle is
moved or when a vibration occurs.
The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot
prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior
or exterior vehicle components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your Intelligent Key(s)
in the vehicle, and always lock it when unat-
tended. Be aware of your surroundings, and
park in secure, well-lit areas whenever pos-
sible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification mark-
ers, and tracking systems, are available at auto
supply stores and specialty shops. Your INFINITI
retailer may also offer such equipment. Check
with your insurance company to see if you may
be eligible for discounts for various theft pro-
tection features.

WARNING
cAlways have the doors locked while driving.
Along with the use of seat belts, this pro-
vides greater safety in the event of an acci-
dent by helping to prevent persons from be-
ing thrown from the vehicle. This also helps
keep children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help keep
out intruders.
c Before opening any door, always look for and
avoid oncoming traffic.
c Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
