2011 INFINITI G-COUPE warning

Your INFINITI represents a new way of thinking
about vehicle design. It integrates advanced
engineering and superior craftsmanship with a
simple, refined aesthetic sensitivity associated
with traditional Japanese culture.
The result is a different notion of luxury and
beauty. The car itself is important, but so is the
sense of harmony that the vehicle evokes in its
driver, and the sense of satisfaction you feel
with the INFINITI — from the way it looks and
drives to the high level of retailer service.
To ensure that you enjoy your INFINITI to the
fullest, we encourage you to read this Owner’s
Manual immediately. It explains all of the fea-
tures, controls and performance characteristics
of your INFINITI; it also provides important
instructions and safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet is in-
cluded in your Owner’s literature portfolio. The
INFINITI Service and Maintenance Guide ex-
plains details about maintaining and servicing
your vehicle. Always carry it with you when you
take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer. The War-
ranty Information Booklet contents provide
complete information about all warranties cov-
ering this vehicle, the requirements to keep the
warranties in effect as well as the INFINITI Road-
side Assistance program.Additionally, a separate Customer Care and
Lemon Law Information Booklet will explain how
to resolve any concerns you may have with your
vehicle, as well as clarify your rights under your
state’s lemon law.
READ FIRST — THEN DRIVE SAFELY
Before driving your vehicle, read your Owner’s
Manual carefully. This will ensure familiarity
with controls and maintenance requirements,
assisting you in the safe operation of your
vehicle.
