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.

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.

the vehicle, the system will activate with all
doors, hood, and trunk lid locked with the igni-
tion switch in the LOCK position. When pushing
the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position, the
system will be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the follow-
ing alarm:
c The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
c The alarm automatically turns off after ap-
proximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm is activated by:
c
Unlocking the door or opening the trunk lid
without using the button on the Intelligent
Key, the door handle request switch or the
mechanical key. (Even if the door is opened
by releasing the door inside lock knob, the
alarm will activate.)
c Opening the hood.
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the unlock button
on the Intel-
ligent Key, the door handle request switch or
using the mechanical key. The alarm will not
stop if the ignition switch is pushed to the ACC
or ON position.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by an INFINITI retailer.

Additional information
cThe TPMS does not monitor the tire pressure
of the spare tire.
c The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
is driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h).
Also, this system may not detect a sudden
drop in tire pressure (for example a flat tire
while driving).
c The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure
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.
c Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle's operation
and the outside temperature. Low outside
temperature can lower the temperature of
the air inside the tire which can cause a
lower tire inflation pressure. This may cause
the low tire pressure warning light to illumi-
nate. If the warning light illuminates in low
ambient temperature, check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. c
You can also check the pressure of all tires
(except the spare tire) on the display. (See
ªHOW TO USE INFO BUTTONº in the ª4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systemsº section.)
After tire rotation is performed, tire pressure
will not be displayed in the actual tire posi-
tion. Drive the vehicle at over 25 MPH (40
km/h) for approximately 10 minutes to reset
the display.
For additional information, see ªLow tire pres-
sure warning lightº in the ª2. Instruments and
controlsº section and ªTIRE PRESSURE MONI-
TORING SYSTEM (TPMS)º in the ª6. In case of
emergencyº section.
WARNING
c If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates or LOW PRESSURE information is dis-
played on the monitor screen 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. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage the
tires and increase the likelihood of tire fail-
ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could result in
serious personal injury. Check the tire pres-
sure 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 you have a flat tire, replace it
with a spare tire as soon as possible. (See
ªFLAT TIREº in the ª6. In case of emergencyº
section for changing a flat tire.)
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.
