Unless checked and repaired, the Supple-
mental Restraint Systems and/or the pre-
tensioner seat belt may not function
properly.
For additional information, see“Supple-
mental restraint system” (P.1-38).
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is
on, it could mean that the supplemental
front air bag, supplemental side air bag,
curtain side-impact air bag systems and/or
pretensioner seat belt will not operate in an
accident. To help avoid injury to yourself or
others, have your vehicle checked by a
retailer as soon as possible.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
Y51D-V-E01-C0AA7A1A-7629-49A7-89B8-6292243BC6FAThe 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, active trace control (if so
equipped), Rise-up & Build-up function,
Brake Force Distribution or hill start assist
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 sys-
tem function will be canceled but the
vehicle is still driveable. For additional
information, see
“Variable voltage control
system” (P.8-22).

Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) off indicator light (if so
equipped)
Y51D-V-E01-D4A08820-0AEE-43A9-BED0-34FC0794EE2DWhen the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the Adaptive Front lighting
System (AFS) off indicator light will illumi-
nate. The light will turn off in about 1
second if the AFS is operational.
This light also illuminates when the AFS is
turned off using the AFS switch.
If the AFS off indicator light blinks, it may
indicate the AFS is not functioning prop- erly. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
See
“Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)”
(P.2-37).

position indicator light
Y51D-V-E01-96FE5B8E-78D9-4CE6-88E5-B9EAA6A7165BWhen 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 a transmission protection
mode, the AT position indicator light will
blink and a chime will sound.
See “Automatic transmission” (P.5-14) for
further details.

ECO drive indicator lightY51D-V-E01-AC745CB7-7DA9-4BDF-B68A-C7496057B8CDWhen the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the light will come on in
orange, turn green, and then turn off.
When the drive mode select switch is
turned to the ECO mode, the ECO drive
indicator light will illuminate or change its
color depending on the accelerator pedal
operation to help assist the driver to drive
economically. For more details, see “Eco
mode” (P.5-20).
Exterior light indicatorY51D-V-E01-007EC214-0CA9-4F5C-9C0E-66B22D543F4AThis indicator illuminates when the head-
light switch is turned to the AUTO,
or
position and 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 lightY51D-V-E01-F44E86A5-3DE4-4396-AE5B-7D3D962F82B0The front fog light indicator light illumi-
nates when the front fog lights are on. (See

Front passenger air bag status
light
Y51D-V-E01-B5550EDA-03BC-41BA-8B43-3CDDA9789CEAThe front passenger air bag status light
(
) 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.1-43).
High beam indicator lightY51D-V-E01-CFCB3FB3-DC4F-4572-AFDF-7DC4BD932014This light comes on when the headlight
high beam is on and goes out when the low
beam is selected.
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA)
off indicator light (if so equipped)
Y51D-V-E01-C0D38BA5-F926-431E-9856-11B7A45A2EC5The light illuminates when the Intelligent
Brake Assist (IBA) off switch is pushed to
OFF. This indicates that the Intelligent
Brake Assist (IBA) system is not operating.
When the IBA off indicator light illuminates
while the system is turned on (without the
warning chime sound), this light indicates that the system control is temporarily
unavailable.
When the IBA off indicator light illuminates
with the warning chime sound while the
IBA system is turned on, this light indicates
that the system may not be functioning
properly. Park the vehicle in a safe place.
Check to see if the laser sensor is clean.
Turn the engine off, then restart the
engine.
If the IBA off indicator light illuminates
after following the procedures above, it
may indicate that the system or Active
Trace Control (if so equipped) is malfunc-
tioning. Although the vehicle is still drive-
able under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked at an INFINITI retailer. (See
“Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA) system”
(P.5-
87) and “Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
system” (P.5-102).)
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
light (green; if so equipped)
Y51D-V-E01-10016286-EB84-47C7-AB0D-46A19C20BCE0The light comes on in green when the Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP) system is
turned on. The light turns off when the
system is turned off.

Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
Y51D-V-E01-5EB179EE-ACAB-4F8B-B435-E99A0A72924EIf 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 (11.4
liters) 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 (US only)” (P.9-
22).)
Operation:
GUID-CA441E56-2FD0-4540-A74C-DB510E9F7AE0The 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 on 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 the
light
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: 1) Do not drive at speeds above 45
MPH (72 km/h).
2) Avoid hard acceleration or decelera- tion.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) 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 lightY51D-V-E01-8635F0ED-0D0D-4E28-95C0-B27FBF6F6EDBThe 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.
