When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the supplemental air bag warning light illumi-
nates for about 7 seconds and then turns off.
This means the system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain and rollover
air bag and pretensioner systems need servic-
ing:
●The supplemental air bag warning light re-
mains on approximately 7 seconds after the
ignition switch is pushed to the ON position.
● The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
● The supplemental air bag warning light does
not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bag, side
air bags, and curtain and rollover air bags or
pretensioner systems may not operate properly.
They must be checked and repaired. Take your
vehicle to the nearest INFINITI retailer.WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is on,
it could mean that the front air bag, side air
bag, curtain and rollover air bag and/or preten-
sioner systems 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 and
rollover air bags and pretensioners are de-
signed to activate on a one-time-only basis. As
a reminder, unless it is damaged, the supple-
mental air bag warning light will remain illumi-
nated after inflation 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
and rollover 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
and rollover air bag has inflated, the air bag
module will not function again and must be
replaced. Additionally, the activated preten-
sioner must also be replaced. The air bag
module and pretensioner 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 and
rollover air bag and the pretensioner should
be inspected 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 a supplemental air
bag or pretensioner or scrap the vehicle,
contact an INFINITI retailer. Correct supple-
mental air bag and pretensioner system dis-
posal procedures are set forth in the appro-
priate INFINITI Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause personal
injury.

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 liquid crystal display
between the speedometer and tachometer. (See
“DOT MATRIX LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY” later in
this section.)
WARNING LIGHTS
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.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
park warning light
This light indicates that the Automatic Trans-
mission (AT) parking function is not engaged. If
the transfer control is not secured in any driving
position while the AT selector lever is in the “P”
(Park) position, the transmission will disengage
and the wheels will not lock.
If the AT park warning light illuminates with the
selector lever in the P (Park) position, shift the
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) shift switch to the
AUTO, 4H or 4L position again with the selector
lever in the N (Neutral) position.(See “INFINITI
ALL-MODE 4WD” in the “5. Starting and driv-
ing” section.)

Transmission (AT) oil temperature is too high. If
the light illuminates while driving, reduce the
vehicle speed as soon as safely possible until
the light turns off.
Instruments and controls2-11

CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when the AT oil
temperature warning light is on may damage
the AT.
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.
Low hydraulic pressure warning indicator :
If the brake warning light illuminates when the
engine is running, or while driving with the
parking brake is released, check the brake fluid
level. If the brake fluid level is sufficient, it may
indicate low hydraulic pressure in the brake
booster. Have the brake system checked by an
INFINITI retailer promptly.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning indica-
tor :
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)
system warning light
(orange; if so equipped)
If the light comes on in orange and remains on,
it may indicate that the BSW system is not
functioning properly. Although the vehicle is
still driveable, have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer. See “BLIND SPOT WARNING
(BSW) SYSTEM” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.

●If the warning light is still on after the above
operations, have your vehicle checked by an
INFINITI retailer as soon as possible.
Intelligent Cruise Control
(ICC) system warning light
(orange; if so equipped)
This light comes on if there is a malfunction in
the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system.
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle
in a safe place. Turn the engine off, restart the
engine, resume driving and set the ICC system
again.
If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the sys-
tem is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is
still driveable under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked at an INFINITI retailer.
Intelligent Key warning light
After the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, this light comes on for about 2 sec-
onds and then turns off.
This light warns of a malfunction with the
electrical steering lock system or the Intelligent
Key system.
If the light comes on while the engine is
stopped, it may be impossible to free the
steering lock or to start the engine. If the light
comes on while the engine is running, you can
drive the vehicle. However in these cases, con-
tact an INFINITI retailer for repair as soon as
possible.
Lane departure warning light
(orange; if so equipped)
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, the light will come on in orange, turn
green, and then turn off. This indicates that the
Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Depar-
ture Prevention (LDP) systems are operational.
While the LDW and/or LDP system is on, the
light will blink in orange and a warning chime
will sound if the vehicle is traveling close to
either the left or the right of a traveling lane
with detectable lane markers. If the light comes on in orange and remains on,
it may indicate that the LDW and LDP systems
are not functioning properly. Although the ve-
hicle is still driveable, have the systems
checked by an INFINITI retailer.
See “LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW)/ PRE-
VENTION (LDP) SYSTEM” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section.
Low tire pressure warning
light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the
tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of low
tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not
functioning properly.
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. A
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning (if so equipped)
also appears in the dot matrix liquid crystal
display. If you select the tire pressure informa-
tion in the display, the LOW PRESSURE informa-
tion will be displayed. The tire pressure for each
tire will also be displayed.
