CHECKING BULBS
With all doors closed, apply the parking brake
and push the ignition switch to the ON position
without starting the engine. The following lights
will come on (if so equipped):
,or,,,
,,,
The following lights come on briefly and then go
off (if so equipped):
,or,,,,
,,,
If any light does not come on, it may indicate a
burned-out bulb or an open circuit in the elec-
trical system. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
Some indicators and warnings are also dis-
played on the dot matrix crystal display be-
tween the speedometer and tachometer. (See
“DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” later in
this section.)
WARNING LIGHTS
All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
warning light (if so equipped)
Thewarning light comes on when the
ignition switch is pushed to ON. It turns off
soon after the engine is started.
If the Intelligent AWD system malfunctions, or
the diameter of the front and the rear wheels
are different, the warning light will either re-
main illuminated or blink. (See “INTELLIGENT
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section.)
CAUTION
● If the warning light comes on while driving
there may be a malfunction in the Intelligent
AWD system. Reduce the vehicle speed and
have your vehicle checked by an INFINITI re-
tailer as soon as possible.
● If the AWD warning light blinks on when you
are driving:
– blinks rapidly (about twice a second): Pull off the road in a safe area, and idle the
engine. The driving mode will change to
2WD to prevent the AWD system from
malfunctioning. If the warning light turns
off, you can drive again. – blinks slowly (about once every 2 sec-
onds):
Pull off the road in a safe area, and idle the
engine. Check that all tire sizes are the
same, tire pressure is correct and tires are
not worn.
● If the warning light is still on after the above
operations, have your vehicle checked by an
INFINITI retailer as soon as possible.
orAnti-lock Braking
System (ABS)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light illuminates and then turns off. This indi-
cates the ABS is operational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked by an INFINITI retailer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock assis-
tance. (See “BRAKE SYSTEM” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section.)

Automatic transmission
check warning light
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, the light comes on for 2 seconds. If
the light comes on at any other time, it may
indicate the transmission is not functioning
properly. Have your INFINITI retailer check and
repair the transmission.
orBrake warning
light
This light functions for both the parking brake
and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator :
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the light comes on when the parking brake is
applied.
Low brake fluid warning light :
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the light warns of a low brake fluid level. If the
light comes on while the engine is running with
the parking brake not applied, stop the vehicle
and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake fluid isnecessary, add fluid and have the system
checked by your INFINITI retailer. (See
“BRAKE FLUID” in the “8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section.)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator :
When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake
warning light and the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminate, it may indicate
the ABS is not functioning properly. Have the
brake system checked, and if necessary re-
paired, by an INFINITI retailer promptly. (See
“Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light”
earlier in this section.)
WARNING
●Your brake system may not be working prop-
erly if the warning light is on. Driving could
be dangerous. If you judge it to be safe, drive
carefully to the nearest service station for
repairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be dangerous. ●
Pressing the brake pedal with the engine
stopped and/or low brake fluid level may
increase your stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
● If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
or MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do
not drive until the brake system has been
checked at an INFINITI retailer.
Blind Spot Warning
(BSW)/Blind Spot
Intervention (BSI) system
warning light (orange; if so
equipped)
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, the indicator light will first illuminate
in orange and turn green before turning off. This
indicates that the Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
and Blind Spot Intervention (BSI) systems are
operational.
If the light comes on in orange and remains on,
it may indicate that the BSW and BSI systems
are not functioning properly. Although the ve-
hicle is still driveable, have the systems
checked by an INFINITI retailer. See “BLIND
Instruments and controls2-11
