CAUTION
.
For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dampened
with water. Never use a rough cloth,
alcohol, benzine, thinner or any kind of
solvent or paper towel with a chemical
cleaning agent. They will scratch or
cause discoloration to the lens.

CHECKING BULBS
With all doors closed, apply the parking
brake and push the ignition switch to the
ON position without starting the engine.
The following lights will come on (if so
equipped):
,or,,,,
The following lights come on briefly and
then go off (if so equipped):
,or,,,,,
If any light does not come on, it may
indicate a burned-out bulb or an open
circuit in the electrical system. Have the system checked by an INFINITI retailer.
Some indicators and warnings are also
displayed on the dot matrix crystal display
between the speedometer and tachometer.
(See
“Dot matrix liquid crystal display”
(P.2-17).)
WARNING LIGHTS
orAnti-lock Braking
System (ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminates and then
turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while
the engine is running, or while driving, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND
AUDIBLE REMINDERS

Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
The light will blink when the VDC system or
the traction control system is operating,
thus alerting the driver that the vehicle is
nearing its traction limits. The road surface
may be slippery.
When the vehicle dynamic control warning
light illuminates when the vehicle dynamic
control system is turned on, this light
alerts the driver to the fact that the vehicle
dynamic control system’s fail-safe mode is
operating, for example the vehicle dynamic
control system may not be functioning
properly. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer. If a malfunction occurs in
the system, the vehicle dynamic control
system function will be canceled but the
vehicle is still driveable. For additional
information, see “Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system” (P.5-56) of this manual.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Automatic transmission posi-
tion indicator light (if so equipped)
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the indicator shows the
automatic shift position.
In the manual shift mode, when the
transmission does not shift to the selected
gear due to the transmission protection
mode, the AT position indicator light will
blink and a chime will sound.
(See “Automatic transmission” (P.5-13).)
Exterior light indicator
This indicator illuminates when the head-
light switch is turned to the AUTO,orposition and the front side marker
lights, the front parking lights, instrument
panel lights, rear combination lights,
license plate lights or headlights are on.
The indicator turns off when these lights
are turned off.
Front fog light indicator light
The front fog light indicator light illumi-
nates when the front fog lights are on. (See
“Fog light switch” (P.2-39).)
Front passenger air bag status
light
The front passenger air bag status light
() located under the climate controls
will be lit and the passenger front air bag
will be OFF depending on how the front
passenger seat is being used.
For front passenger air bag status light
operation, see “INFINITI Advanced Air Bag
System (front seats)” (P.1-40) of this
manual.
High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight
high beam is on and goes out when the low
beam is selected.
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is
running, it may indicate a potential emis-
sion 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)
Instruments and controls2-15

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” (P.9-23).)
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
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. You do not need to have your vehicle towed to the retailer.
. Malfunction indicator light blinking —
An engine misfire has been detected
which may damage the emission con-
trol system.
To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
a) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH (72 km/h).
b) Avoid hard acceleration or decelera- tion.
c) Avoid steep uphill grades.
d) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may
stop blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected by an
INFINITI retailer. You do not need to
have your vehicle towed to the retailer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without having
the emission control system checked and
repaired as necessary could lead to poor
driveability, reduced fuel economy, and
possible damage to the emission control
system.
Security indicator light
The light blinks when the ignition switch is
in the ACC, OFF or LOCK position. This
function indicates the security system
equipped on the vehicle is operational.
If the security system is malfunctioning,
this light will remain on while the ignition
switch is in the ON position. For additional
information, see “Security systems” (P.2-
28).
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The light flashes when the turn signal
switch lever or hazard switch is turned on.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
off indicator light
The light comes on when the vehicle
dynamic control off switch is pushed to
OFF. This indicates that the vehicle dynamic
control system and traction control system
are not operating.
