2011 INFINITI G-CONVERTIBLE light

WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is on,
it could mean that the front air bag, side air
bag, curtain air bag and/or pretensioner sys-
tems will not operate in an accident. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle checked by a retailer as soon as
possible.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioners are designed to acti-
vate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder,
unless it is damaged, the supplemental air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after infla-
tion has occurred. Repair and replacement of
these systems should be done only by an
INFINITI retailer.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags, curtain
air bags, pretensioners and related parts
should be pointed out to the person conducting
the maintenance. The ignition switch should
always be in the LOCK position when working
under the hood or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
●Once a front air bag, side air bag, or curtain
air bag has inflated, the air bag module will
not function again and must be replaced.
Additionally, the activated pretensioner
must also be replaced. The air bag module
and pretensioner system should be replaced
by an INFINITI retailer. The air bag module
and pretensioner system cannot be
repaired.
● The front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag
and the pretensioner system should be in-
spected by an INFINITI retailer if there is any
damage to the front end or side portion of the
vehicle.
● If you need to dispose of the supplemental
air bag or pretensioner systems or scrap the
vehicle, contact an INFINITI retailer. Correct
supplemental air bag and seat belt preten-
sioner system disposal procedures are set
forth in the appropriate INFINITI Service
Manual. Incorrect disposal procedures could
cause personal injury.
POP-UP ROLL BAR SYSTEM
The pop-up roll bars are designed to deploy
during rollover collisions. The pop-up roll bars
are located behind the rear seatback and de-
ploy when the Air bag Control Unit (ACU) judges
that the vehicle will overturn.
The pop-up roll bars, with proper seat belt
usage, help preserve occupant headroom in a
rollover collision and can help reduce the risk of
occupant injury.

The needle indicators in the speedometer, ta-
chometer, engine coolant temperature gauge
and fuel gauge may move slightly after the igni-
tion switch is pushed to the LOCK position. This
is not a malfunction.
SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates vehicle speed in
miles per hour (MPH) and kilometers per hour
(km/h).
Odometer/twin trip odometer
The odometer1and twin trip odometer2are
displayed on the dot matrix crystal display
when the ignition switch is in the ON position.

CAUTION
If the gauge indicates engine coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end 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, continued operation of the ve-
hicle may seriously damage the engine. See “IF
YOUR VEHICLE OVERHEATS” in the “6. In case of
emergency” section for immediate action
required.
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel level
in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to E (Empty) after the
ignition switch is pushed to the OFF position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge registers
“E” (Empty).
The low fuel warning
appears on the dot
matrix liquid crystal display when the fuel tank
is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve-
nient, preferably before the gauge reaches “E”. There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank
when the fuel gauge needle reaches “E”.
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the front passenger’s side of the
vehicle.
CAUTION
● If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL) may come
on. Refuel as soon as possible. After a few
driving trips, the
light should turn off.
If the light remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected by an
INFINITI retailer.
● For additional information, see “Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL)” later in this section.
