FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips :
●The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds,
then reactivate the switch.
● Do not operate the power seat switch for a
long period of time when the engine is off.
This will discharge the battery.
See “AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER” in the “3.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments” section for
the seat position memory function.
Forward and backward :
Moving the switch
1forward or backward will
slide the seat forward or backward to the
desired position.
Reclining :
Move the recline switch
2backward until the
desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback
forward again, move the switch
2forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. (See “PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE” later in this section.) Also, the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when
the vehicle is parked.

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.
The odometer records the total distance the
vehicle has been driven.
The twin trip odometer records the distance of
individual trips. Changing the display :
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch
3on the right
of the combination meter panel changes the
display as follows:
TRIP A →TRIP B →TRIP A
Resetting the trip odometer :
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch
3for more than
1 second resets the trip odometer to zero.
Average fuel economy and distance to empty
information is also available. (See “DOT MATRIX
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” later in this section
and “HOW TO USE STATUS BUTTON” in the “4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice rec-
ognition systems” section.)

●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 still illuminates while driving after ad-
justing the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If
you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare
tire as soon as possible.
● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is
replaced, the TPMS will not function and the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute. The light will re-
main on after the 1 minute. Contact your
INFINITI retailer as soon as possible for tire
replacement and/or system resetting.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.CAUTION
● The TPMS is not a substitute for the regular
tire pressure check. Be sure to check the tire
pressure regularly.
● If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of less
than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS may not
operate correctly.
● Be sure to install the specified size of tires to
the four wheels correctly.
Master warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the master warning light illuminates if any of
the following are displayed on the dot matrix
liquid crystal display:
● No key warning
● Low fuel warning
● Low washer fluid warning
● Parking brake release warning
● Door/trunk open warning
● Loose fuel cap warning (if so equipped)
● Check tire pressure warning (if so equipped)
● Intelligent key system warning
See “DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY”
later in this section.
Preview Function warning
light (orange; if so equipped)
The light comes on if there is a malfunction in the
Brake Assist (with Preview Function) system.
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle
in a safe place. Turn the engine off, restart the
engine, then resume driving.
If the indicator stays on, it may indicate that the
system is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle
is still driveable under normal conditions, have
the vehicle checked at an INFINITI retailer.
Seat belt warning light and
chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten seat
belts. The light illuminates whenever the igni-
tion switch is pushed to the ON position, and
will remain illuminated until the driver’s seat
belt is fastened. At the same time, the chime
will sound for about 6 seconds unless the
driver’s seat belt is securely fastened.
The seat belt warning light for the front passen-
ger will illuminate if the seat belt is not fastened
when the front passenger’s seat is occupied.
For 7 seconds after the ignition switch is in the
ON position, the system does not activate the
warning light for the front passenger.

average fuel consumption since the last reset.
Resetting is done by pushing the
switch
Bfor longer than 1 second. (The average speed
is also reset at the same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds. At
about the first 1/3 mile (500 m) after a reset, the
display shows “——”. Speed :
The average speed mode shows the average
vehicle speed since the last reset. Resetting is
done by pushing the
switchBfor longer
than 1 second. (The average fuel consumption is
also reset at the same time.)

tance the vehicle has been driven since the last
reset. Resetting is done by pushing the
switchBfor longer than 1 second. (The
elapsed time is also reset at the same time.)
4. Distance to empty (dte — mls or
km)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can be
driven before refueling. The dte is constantly
being calculated, based on the amount of fuel
in the fuel tank and the actual fuel consump-
tion.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning
feature. If the fuel level is low, the warning is
displayed on the screen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte
display will change to “——”.
● If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch is
pushed to the OFF position may continue to
be displayed.
● When driving uphill or rounding curves, the
fuel in the tank shifts, which may momen-
tarily change the display.
5. Outside air temperature (ICY — °F
or °C)
The outside air temperature is displayed in °F or
°C in the range of 22 to 131°F (30 to 55°C).
