FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during
braking, turning, acceleration, or going up
or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to “0”(Empty)
after the ignition switch is pushed to the
OFF position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “0”(Empty).
The low fuel warning light
illuminates
on the meter when the fuel level is getting
low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient, preferably before the gauge reaches
“0”.
There will be a small reserve of fuel in the
tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches
“0”.
The

Low fuel warning light
This light illuminates when the fuel in the
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel
gauge reaches the 0 (empty) position.
There will be a small reserve of fuel
remaining in the tank when the fuel gauge
reaches the 0 position.
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 tire (if so equipped).
The low tire pressure warning light warns
of low tire pressure and flat tire or
indicates that the TPMS is not functioning
properly.
After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, 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.
The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
also appears in the vehicle information
display.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automati-
cally 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
is active as long as the low tire pressure
warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
information display” (P.2-20),“Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-4)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P.6-3). Run-flat tire warning:
The run-flat tire warning warns of a flat tire.
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. A
“ Flat Tire - Visit dealer” warning also
appears 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 pressure, 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.6-
4).
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The
light will remain on after the 1 minute.
Have the system checked by an INFINITI

There is a small reserve of fuel remaining
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches
the empty (0) position.

14. Tire Pressure Low - Add Air
warning
This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates and low tire pressure is detected.
The warning appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long
as the low tire pressure warning light
remains illuminated. If this warning ap-
pears, stop the vehicle and adjust the
pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label. (See “Low tire pressure
warning light” (P.2-14) and“Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-4).)
15. Flat Tire - Visit dealer warning
This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates and one or more flat tires are
detected while driving. A chime also
sounds for approximately 10 seconds.
(See“Low tire pressure warning light”
(P.2-14) and “Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)” (P.5-4).)
16. Low oil pressure warning
This warning appears if low engine oil
pressure is detected. If the warning
appears during normal driving, pull off
the road in a safe area, stop the engine
