1. Pull the hood lock release handle*1
located below the instrument panel;
the hood will then spring up slightly.
2. Pull the lever
*2up at the front of the
hood with your fingertips and raise the
hood.
3. When closing the hood, slowly close the hood down to latch both the right

the engine compartment, to avoid injury
do not open the hood.

WARNING
.Always be sure the lift gate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.
. Do not drive with the lift gate open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. See “Exhaust
gas (carbon monoxide)” (P.5-3) of this
manual.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
. Always be sure that hands and feet are
clear of the door frame to avoid injury
while closing the lift gate.

CAUTION
.If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
. Insert the cap straight into the fuel-filler
tube, then tighten until a single click is
heard. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler
cap properly may cause the
mal-
function indicator light (MIL) to illumi-
nate. If the
light illuminates
because the fuel-filler cap is loose or
missing, tighten or install the cap and
continue to drive the vehicle. The
light should turn off after a few driving
trips. If thelight does not turn off
after a few driving trips, have the vehicle
inspected by an INFINITI retailer.
For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P.2-19).
. The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning will appear
if the fuel-filler cap is not properly
tightened. It may take a few driving
trips for the message to be displayed.
Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly after the LOOSE FUEL CAP
warning appears may cause the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) to
illuminate.

holding the SET switch for more than 10
seconds while the ignition switch is in the
ACC position.
The indicator lights on the memory
switches (1 and 2) will blink once when
the function is canceled, and the indicator
lights will blink twice when the function is
activated. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to
a stored memory position. Keep the SET
switch pushed for more than 10 seconds to
turn on or off the seat synchronization
function.

TIRE PRESSURE informationGUID-CF46107C-599A-4D58-858B-D3DD48166CF4
WARNING
.When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, tire pressure will not be
indicated, the TPMS will not function
and the low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The light will remain on after 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.
The tire pressure will be displayed for
reference.
The pressure indication “*** kPa”or“***
psi” on the screen means that the pressure
is being measured. After a few driving
trips, the pressure for each tire will be
displayed.
The unit can be converted in the LANGUAGE
& UNITS settings display. (See “How to use
SETTING button” (P.4-15) for details.)

HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINESGUID-BCFE75B5-C5A1-4F87-B804-CFCA48BAE298
WARNING
.Always turn and check that it is safe to
park your car before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course line
may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course line and the actual
course line. .
The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the vehicle
width guide line should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on a
level paved surface. The distance viewed
on the monitor is for reference only and
may be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed ob-
jects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When backing up the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances to
other objects.

WARNING
.The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved,
level surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects. .
Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the
bird-eye view are greatly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road condition and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course line
and the bird-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in
the monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other ob-
jects.
. The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.
. The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
Objects in the rearview will appear
visually opposite than when viewed in
the rearview and outside mirrors.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the predictive course line and the actual
course line.
. The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.

The bird-eye view shows the overhead view
of the vehicle, which helps confirm the
vehicle position and the predicted course
to a parking space.
The vehicle icon
*1shows the position of
the vehicle. Note that the size of the
vehicle icon on the bird-eye view may
differ somewhat from the actual vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
*2
are indicated in black. The non-viewable
area
*2is highlighted in yellow for several
seconds after the bird-eye view is dis-
played. It will be shown only the first time
after the ignition switch is placed in the
“ON” position. When the corner of the vehicle moves
closer to an object, the corner sonar
indicators
*3appears.
The driver can check the direction and
angle of the tire on the display by tire icon
*4when driving the vehicle forward or
backward.
Predictive course lines (
*5and*6)
indicate the predictive course when oper-
ating the vehicle. The predictive course
lines will be displayed on the monitor
when the steering wheel is turned. The
predictive course lines will move depend-
ing on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the
steering wheel is in the neutral position.
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or less from the neutral position,
the two green predictive course lines
*5
are shown in front of the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, one green predictive
course line
*6is shown in front of the
vehicle and the other green predictive
course line
*6is shown at side of the
vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view,
