on seat belt usage.
Supplemental air bag warning
light
After pushing the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light will illuminate. The supplemental air
bag warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the supplemental front air bag
and supplemental side air bag, curtain
side-impact air bag systems and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt are operational.

others, have your vehicle checked by a
retailer as soon as possible.
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, the vehicle dynamic
control system is turned on, this light
alerts the driver that the vehicle dynamic
control system’s fail-safe mode is operat-
ing. 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. Have the system
checked by an INFINITI retailer. For addi-
tional information, see
“Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” (P.5-58) of this
manual.
