MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored
in the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the mem-
ory system.
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering col-umn and outside mirrors to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats”(P.1-2),“Tilt/tele-
scopic steering” (P.3-24) and“Outside
mirrors” (P.3-27).
2. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1
or 2) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed
memory switch will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the

When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same
memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.
Confirming memory storage
.
Push the ignition switch to the ON
position and push the SET switch. If
the main memory has not been stored,
the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored in position, the
indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
. If the battery cable is disconnected, or if
the fuse opens, the memory will be
canceled. In this case, reset the desired
position using the previous procedure.

THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission
control device installed in the exhaust
system. Exhaust gases in the three-way
catalyst are burned at high temperatures to
help reduce pollutants.
WARNING
.The exhaust gas and the exhaust system
are very hot. Keep people, animals or
flammable materials away from the
exhaust system components.
. Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry grass,
waste paper or rags. They may ignite and
cause a fire.
CAUTION
.Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits
from leaded gasoline seriously reduce
the three-way catalyst’s ability to help
reduce exhaust pollutants.
. Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions
in the ignition, fuel injection, or elec-
trical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing
it to overheat. Do not keep driving if the
engine misfires, or if noticeable loss of
performance or other unusual operating
conditions are detected. Have the vehicle
inspected promptly by an INFINITI retai-
ler.
. Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel
level. Running out of fuel could cause
the engine to misfire, damaging the
three-way catalyst.
. Do not race the engine while warming it
up.
. Do not push or tow your vehicle to start
the engine.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-
TEM (TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates
a low tire pressure telltale when one or
more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
If the vehicle is being driven with one or
more flat tires, the low tire pressure
warning light will illuminate continuously
and a chime will sound for 10 seconds. The
flat tire warning will also appear in the
vehicle information display. The chime will
only sound at the first indication of a flat
tire, and the warning light will illuminate
continuously. When the flat tire warning is
activated, have the system reset and the
tire checked and replaced if necessary by
an INFINITI retailer. Even if the tire is
inflated to the specified COLD tire pres-
sure, the warning light will continue to

illuminate until the system is reset by an
INFINITI retailer. Your vehicle can be driven
for a limited time on a flat tire. See“Run-
flat tires” (P.8-36).
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’ s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When the mal-
function indicator is illuminated, the sys-
tem may not be able to detect or signal low
tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunc-
tions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or
alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning prop- erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
Additional information
.
The TPMS does not monitor the tire
pressure of the spare tire (if so
equipped).
. The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above 16
MPH (25 km/h). Also, this system may
not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example a flat tire while
driving).
. The low tire pressure warning light does
not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is
inflated to the recommended pressure,
the vehicle must be driven at speeds
above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure
warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge
to check the tire pressure.
. The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display when the low tire pressure warning light is illuminated and low tire
pressure is detected. The
“Tire Pressure
Low - Add Air” warning turns off when
the low tire pressure warning light
turns off.
The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning does not appear if the low tire
pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction.
. The “Flat Tire - Visit dealer” warning
appears in the vehicle information dis-
play when the low tire pressure warn-
ing light is illuminated and one or more
flat tires are detected.
. Tire pressure rises and falls depending
on the heat caused by the vehicle’s
operation and the outside temperature.
Low outside temperature can lower the
temperature of the air inside the tire
which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If
the warning light illuminates in low
ambient temperature, check the tire
pressure for all four tires.
. You can also check the pressure of all
tires (except the spare tire) in the
vehicle information display. (See “Ve-
hicle information display” (P.2-20).)

WARNING
. Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those who
use a pacemaker should contact the
electric medical equipment manufacturer
for the possible influences before use.
. If the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
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 increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an accident
and could result in serious personal
injury. Check the tire pressure for all
four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended 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 adjusting
the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If
you have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire (if so equipped). (See
“Flat
tire” (P.6-3) for changing a flat tire.)
. Although you can continue driving with a
punctured run-flat tire, remember that
vehicle handling stability is reduced,
which could lead to an accident and
personal injury. Also, driving a long
distance at high speeds may damage
the tires.
. Do not drive at speeds above 50 MPH
(80 km/h) and do not drive more than
approximately 93 miles (150 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual dis-
tance the vehicle can be driven on a flat
tire depends on outside temperature,
vehicle load, road conditions and other
factors.
. If you detect any unusual sounds or
vibrations while driving with a punctured
run-flat tire, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop the vehicle as soon as
possible. The tire may be seriously
damaged and need to be replaced.
. 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 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.
. Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pressure
sensors.
CAUTION
.The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with tire
chains or the wheels are buried in snow.
. Do not place metalized film or any metal
parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows.
This may cause poor reception of the
signals from the tire pressure sensors,
and the TPMS will not function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may tem-
porarily interfere with the operation of the

Cruise indicator
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise indicator and the set vehicle
speed are displayed in the vehicle informa-
tion display. The cruise indicator indicates
the staus of the cruise control system by
the color.
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 to 89 MPH (40 to 144 km/h)
without keeping your foot on the accel-
erator pedal.
To turn on the cruise control,push the
MAIN switch on. The cruise indicator
(white) will come on. To set cruising speed,
accelerate your
vehicle to the desired speed, push the
SET/COAST (-) switch and release it. (The
cruise indicator (green) will illuminates.)
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Your vehicle will maintain the set speed.
. To pass another vehicle, depress the
accelerator pedal. When you release
the pedal, the vehicle will return to the
previously set speed.
. The vehicle may not maintain the set
speed on winding or hilly roads. If this
happens, drive without the cruise con-
trol.
To cancel the preset speed, follow any of
these methods:
1. Push the CANCEL switch.
2. Tap the brake pedal.
3. Turn the MAIN switch off.
After any of the above operation is
performed, the color of the cruise indicator
will change from green to white.
. If you depress the brake pedal while
pushing the RESUME/ACCELERATE (+)
or SET/COAST (-) switch and reset at the
cruising speed, the cruise control will
disengage. Turn the MAIN switch off
once and then turn it on again. .
The cruise control will automatically
cancel if the vehicle slows more than
8 MPH (13 km/h) below the set speed.
. If you move the shift lever to N (Neutral)
position, the cruise control will be
canceled.
To reset at a faster cruising speed, use one
of the following methods:
. Depress the accelerator pedal. When
the vehicle attains the desired speed,
push and release the SET/COAST (-)
switch.
. Push and hold the RESUME/ACCELER-
ATE (+) switch. When the vehicle attains
the speed you desire, release the
switch.
. Push, then quickly release the RESUME/
ACCELERATE (+) switch. Each time you
do this, the set speed will increase by
about 1 MPH (1.6 km/h).
To reset at a slower cruising speed, use
one of the following methods:
. Lightly tap the brake pedal. When the
vehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET/COAST (-) switch and release it.
. Push and hold the SET/COAST (-)
switch. Release the switch when the
vehicle slows down to the desired

speed.
. Push, then quickly release the SET/
COAST (-) switch. Each time you do this,
the set speed will decrease by about 1
MPH (1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and
release the RESUME/ACCELERATE (+)
switch. The vehicle will resume the last
set cruising speed when the vehicle speed
is over 25 MPH (40 km/h). The Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system
maintains a selected distance from the
vehicle in front of you within the speed
range of 0 to 90 MPH (0 to 144 km/h) up to
the set speed. The set speed can be
selected by the driver between 20 to 90
MPH (32 to 144 km/h).
The vehicle travels at a set speed when the
road ahead is clear.
The ICC function can be set to one of two
cruise control modes:
.
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode:
For maintaining a selected distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle
in front of you up to the preset speed.
. Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode:
For cruising at a preset speed.
WARNING
. Always drive carefully and attentively
when using either cruise control mode.
Read and understand the Owner’s Man-
ual thoroughly before using the cruise
control. To avoid serious injury or death,
do not rely on the system to prevent accidents or to control the vehicle’
s
speed in emergency situations. Do not
use cruise control except in appropriate
road and traffic conditions.
. In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise
control mode, a warning chime will not
sound to warn you if you are too close to
the vehicle ahead. Pay special attention
to the distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead of you or a collision
could occur.
