while the system is turned on (without the
warning chime sound), this light indicates
that the system control is temporarily
unavailable.
When the IBA off indicator light illuminates
with the warning chime sound while the
IBA system is turned on, this light indicates
that the system may not be functioning
properly. Park the vehicle in a safe place.
Check to see if the laser sensor is clean.
Stop the hybrid system, then restart the
hybrid system.
If the IBA off indicator light illuminates
after following the procedures above, it
may indicate that the system or Active
Trace Control (if so equipped) is malfunc-
tioning. Although the vehicle is still drive-
able under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked at an INFINITI retailer. (See
“Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) system ”in
the “5. Starting and driving ”section and
“ Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system ”in
the “5. Starting and driving ”section.)
Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP) ON indicator light (green; if so
equipped)
The light comes on in green when the Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP) system is turned on. The light turns off when the
system is turned off.
NOTE:
This light is common with the lane
departure warning light (orange). (See
“Lane departure warning light
”earlier in
this section.)
For more details, see “Lane Departure
Warning (LDW) system/Lane Departure
Prevention (LDP) system” in the“5. Start-

Low beam indicator light
The low beam indicator light illuminates
when the front park lights, rear combina-
tion lights and license plate lights are on.
The indicator light turns off when the
is turned off.
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
steady or blinks when the ignition switch is
in the ON position, it may indicate a
potential emission control malfunction.
The malfunction indicator light may also
come on steady if the fuel-filler cap is loose
or missing, or if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure the fuel-filler cap is
installed and closed tightly, and that the
vehicle has at least 3 US gallons (14 liters)
of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light
should turn off if no other potential
emission control system malfunction ex-
ists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20
seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indicates
that the vehicle is not ready for an
emission control system inspection/main-
tenance test. (See “Readiness for Inspec-
tion/Maintenance (I/M) test (US only) ”in
the “9. Technical and consumer informa-
tion ”.)
Operation:
The malfunction indicator light will come
on in one of two ways:
. Malfunction indicator light on steady —
An emission control system malfunc-
tion has been detected. Check the fuel-
filler cap if the LOOSE FUEL CAP
warning appears in the dot matrix
liquid crystal display. If the fuel-filler
cap is loose or missing, tighten or
install the cap and continue to drive the
