TRIP COMPUTER
Switches for the trip computer are located
on the right side of the combination meter
panel. To operate the trip computer, push
the side or front of the switches as shown
above.
*Aswitch
*Bswitch
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, modes of the trip computer
can be selected by pushing the
switch
*A.
Each time the
switch*Ais pushed, the
display will change as follows: Current fuel consumption
?Average fuel
consumption and speed ?Elapsed time
and trip odometer ?Distance to empty
(dte) ?Outside air temperature (ICY) ?
Setting ?Warning check
1. Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption mode shows
the current fuel consumption.
2. Average fuel consumption (MPG
or l (liter)/100 km) and speed (MPH
or km/h)
Fuel consumption:
The average fuel consumption mode shows
the average fuel consumption since the
last reset. Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second.
(The average speed is also reset at the
same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
At about the first 1/3 mile (500 m) after a
reset, the display shows “——”.
Speed:
The average speed mode shows the
average vehicle speed since the last reset.
Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second. (The average fuel consumption is also reset
at the same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The first 30 seconds after a reset, the
display shows
“——”.
3. Elapsed time and trip odometer
(mls or km)
Elapsed time:
The elapsed time mode shows the time
since the last reset. The displayed time can
be reset by pushing the
switch*Bfor
longer than 1 second. (The trip odometer is
also reset at the same time.)
Trip odometer:
The trip odometer mode shows the total
distance the vehicle has been driven since
the last reset. Resetting is done by pushing
the
switch*Bfor longer than 1
second. (The elapsed time is also reset at
the same time.)
4. Distance to empty (dte —mls or
km)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides
you with an estimation of the distance that
can be driven before refueling. The dte is
constantly being calculated, based on the

amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the
actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning
feature. If the fuel level is low, the warning
is displayed on the screen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the
dte display will change to“——”.
. If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch
is pushed to the OFF position may
continue to be displayed.
. When driving uphill or rounding curves,
the fuel in the tank shifts, which may
momentarily change the display.
5. Outside air temperature (ICY —8F
or 8C)
The outside air temperature is displayed in
8For 8C in the range of −22 to 1318F(−30
to 558C).
The outside air temperature mode includes
a low temperature warning feature. If the
outside air temperature is below 378 F
(38C), the warning is displayed on the
screen.
The outside temperature sensor is located
in front of the radiator. The sensor may be affected by road or engine heat, wind
directions and other driving conditions.
The display may differ from the actual
outside temperature or the temperature
displayed on various signs or billboards.
6. Setting
Setting cannot be made while driving. A
message
“Setting can only be operated
when stopped” is also displayed on the
dot matrix crystal display.

warning check mode.
Push the
switch*Bto select other
menus.
ALERT:
There are 3 submenus under the alert
menu.
. BACK
Select this submenu to return to the top
page of the setting mode.
. TIME TO REST
Select this submenu to specify when the
“time to rest” indicator activates.
. ICY
Select this submenu to display the low
outside temperature warning.
MAINTENANCE: There are 5 submenus under the main-
tenance menu.
. BACK
Select this submenu to return to the top
page of the setting mode.
. ENGINE OIL
Select this submenu to set or reset the
distance for changing the engine oil.
. OIL FILTER
Select this submenu to set or reset the
distance for replacing the oil filter.
. TIRE
Select this submenu to set or reset the
distance for replacing tires.
. OTHER
Select this submenu and set or reset
the distance for replacing items other
than the engine oil, oil filter and tires.
DISPLAY:
There are 3 submenus under the display
menu.

Fuel Economy information
The approximate distance to empty, aver-
age fuel economy and current fuel econo-
my will be displayed for reference.
To reset the average fuel economy (Avg
Fuel Econ), select the“Reset Fuel Eco”or
“Reset” key.
If the “Fuel Eco History” or“View” key is
selected, the average fuel consumption
history will be displayed in graph form
along with the average for the previous
Reset-to-Reset period.
The unit can be converted between “US”
and “Metric”. (See “How to use SETTING
button” (P.4-14).)
The fuel economy information may differ
from the information displayed on the
vehicle information display. This is due to
the timing difference in updating the
information and does not indicate a mal-
function.

.If an oxygenate-blend, excepting a
methanol blend, is used, it should
contain no more than 10% oxygenate.
(MTBE may, however, be added up to
15%.)
. E-15 fuel contains more than 10%
oxygenate. E-15 fuel will adversely
affect the emission control devices
and systems of the vehicle and should
not be used. Damage caused by such
fuel is not covered by the INFINITI new
vehicle limited warranty.
. If a methanol blend is used, it should
contain no more than 5% methanol
(methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). It
should also contain a suitable amount
of appropriate cosolvents and corro-
sion inhibitors. If not properly formu-
lated with appropriate cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors, such methanol
blends may cause fuel system damage
and/or vehicle performance problems.
At this time, sufficient data is not
available to ensure that all methanol
blends are suitable for use in INFINITI
vehicles.
If any undesirable driveability problems
such as engine stalling or hard hot starting
are experienced after using oxygenate- blend fuels, immediately change to a
non-oxygenate fuel or a fuel with a low
blend of MTBE.
Take care not to spill gasoline during
refueling. Gasoline containing oxygenates
can cause paint damage.
E-15 fuel
E-15 fuel is a mixture of approximately
15% fuel ethanol and 85% unleaded
gasoline. E-15 can only be used in vehicles
designed to run on E-15 fuel. Do not use E-
15 in your vehicle. U.S. government
regulations require fuel ethanol dispensing
pumps to be identified with small, square,
orange and black label with the common
abbreviation or the appropriate percentage
for that region.
E-85 fuel
E-85 fuel is a mixture of approximately
85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded
gasoline. E-85 can only be used in a
Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV). Do not use E-
85 fuel in your vehicle. U.S. government
regulations require fuel ethanol dispensing
pumps to be identified by a small, square,
orange and black label with the common
abbreviation or the appropriate percentage
for that region.
Aftermarket fuel additives
INFINITI does not recommend the use of
any aftermarket fuel additives (Example:
fuel injector cleaner, octane booster, intake
valve deposit removers, etc.) which are
sold commercially. Many of these additives
intended for gum, varnish or deposit
removal may contain active solvent or
similar ingredients that can be harmful to
the fuel system and engine.
Octane rating tips
Using unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating lower than recommended above can
cause persistent, heavy spark knock.
(Spark knock is a metallic rapping noise.)
If severe, this can lead to engine damage.
If you detect a persistent heavy spark
knock even when using gasoline of the
stated octane rating, or if you hear steady
spark knock while holding a steady speed
on level roads, have an INFINITI retailer
correct the condition. Failure to correct the
condition is misuse of the vehicle, for
which INFINITI is not responsible.
Incorrect ignition timing will result in
knocking, after-run or overheating. This in
turn may cause excessive fuel consumption
or damage to the engine. If any of the
