2012 INFINITI G-COUPE roof

WARNING
.In an accident you could be thrown from
the vehicle through an open moonroof.
Always use seat belts and child re-
straints.
. Do not allow anyone to stand up or
extend any portion of their body out of
the moonroof opening while the vehicle
is in motion or while the moonroof is
closing.
CAUTION
.Remove water drops, snow, ice or sand
from the moonroof before opening.
. Do not place any heavy object on the
moonroof or surrounding area.
AUTOMATIC MOONROOF
The moonroof only operates when the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
The automatic moonroof is operational for
about 45 seconds, even if the ignition
switch is pushed to the OFF position. If the
driver’s door or the passenger’s door is
opened during this period of about 45
seconds, power to the moonroof is can-
celed.

opening or closing.
Auto reverse function
WARNING
There are some small distances immediately
before the closed position which cannot be
detected. Make sure that all passengers
have their hands, etc., inside the vehicle
before closing the moonroof.
If the control unit detects something
caught in the moonroof when it is closing,
the moonroof will be immediately opened.
The auto reverse function can be activated
when the moonroof is closed by automatic
operation when the ignition switch is in the
ON position or for about 45 seconds after
the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
If the moonroof cannot be closed auto-
matically when the auto reverse function
activates due to a malfunction, push and
hold the CLOSE
*1side of themoonroof switch.
Depending on the environment or driving
conditions, the auto reverse function may
be activated if an impact or load similar to
something being caught in the moonroof
occurs.
If the moonroof does not operate
If the moonroof does not operate properly,
perform the following procedure to initi-
alize the moonroof operation system.
1. If the moonroof is open, close it fully by
repeatedly pushing the CLOSE
*1
side of the moonroof switch to tilt the
moonroof up.
2. Push and hold the CLOSE
*1side
of the moonroof switch.
3. Release the moonroof switch after the moonroof moves slightly up and down.
4. Push and hold the OPEN
*2side of
the moonroof switch to fully tilt the
moonroof down.
5. Check if the moonroof switch operates normally.

FM radio reception:
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25
to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
(single channel) FM having slightly more
range than stereo FM. External influences
may sometimes interfere with FM station
reception even if the FM station is within
25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM
signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM
signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibit-
ing many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off
objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves awayfrom a station transmitter, the signals will
tend to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interfer-
ence from buildings, large hills or due to
antenna position, usually in conjunction
with increased distance from the station
transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.
This can be reduced by lowering the treble
setting to reduce the treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflec-
tive characteristics of FM signals, direct
and reflected signals reach the receiver at
the same time. The signals may cancel
each other, resulting in momentary flutter
or loss of sound.
AM radio reception:
AM signals, because of their low frequency,
can bend around objects and skip along
the ground. In addition, the signals can be
bounced off the ionosphere and bent back
to earth. Because of these characteristics.
AM signals are also subject to interference
as they travel from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas
with many tall buildings. It can also occur
for several seconds during ionospheric
turbulence even in areas where no obsta-
cles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic
lights.
Satellite radio reception (if so equipped):
When the satellite radio is used for the first
time or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This
is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10
minutes with the satellite radio ON and the
vehicle outside of any metal or large
building for the satellite radio to receive
all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode requires an active
XM®Satellite Radio subscription. The
satellite radio is not available in Alaska,
Hawaii and Guam.
The satellite radio performance may be
affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the
satellite antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.

.Keep the battery surface clean and dry.
Clean the battery with a solution of
baking soda and water.
. Make certain the terminal connections
are clean and securely tightened.
. If the vehicle is not to be used for 30
days or longer, disconnect the negative
(−) battery terminal cable to prevent
discharging it.
COUPE
CAUTION
When the battery cable is removed from the
battery terminal, do not close either of front
doors. The automatic window adjusting
function will not work, and the side roof
panel may be damaged.
To disconnect the negative (− ) battery
terminal, perform the procedure in the
following order. Otherwise, the window
and the side roof panel may contact and
be damaged.
1. Close the windows.
2. Open the hood.
3. Close and lock all the doors. 4. Disconnect the negative (−
) battery
terminal.
5. Securely close the hood.
To connect the negative (−) battery term-
inal, perform the procedure in the follow-
ing order. Otherwise, the window and the
side roof panel may contact and be
damaged.
1. Unlock and open the driver side door. Do not close the door.
2. Open the hood.
3. Connect the negative (−) battery term- inal. Then close the hood.
4. Fully open the driver side door window.
5. Close the driver side door and the window.
SEDAN AND COUPE
WARNING
. Do not expose the battery to flames or
electrical sparks. Hydrogen gas gener-
ated by the battery is explosive. Do not
allow battery fluid to contact your skin,
eyes, fabrics, or painted surfaces. After
touching a battery or battery cap, do not
touch or rub your eyes. Thoroughly wash your hands. If the acid contacts your
eyes, skin or clothing, immediately flush
with water for at least 15 minutes and
seek medical attention.
. Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in
the battery is low. Low battery fluid can
cause a higher load on the battery which
can generate heat, reduce battery life,
and in some cases lead to an explosion.
. When working on or near a battery,
always wear suitable eye protection and
remove all jewelry.
. Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds. Wash hands after handling.
. Keep the battery out of the reach of
children.
