Maintenance informationY51D-V-E01-FCA7EADE-3AAB-4F62-9095-D51FFDE722D6The maintenance intervals can be dis-
played for the engine oil, oil filter, tire
and other reminders.
To set a maintenance interval, select a
preferred item from the list.
You can also set to display a message to
remind you that the maintenance needs to
be performed.
The following example shows how to set
the engine oil maintenance information.
Use the same steps to set the other
maintenance information.
1. Set the interval (mileage) of the main-tenance schedule. To determine the
recommended maintenance interval,
refer to your “INFINITI Service and
Maintenance Guide”.
2. To display the reminder automatically when the desired distance is reached,
select the “Reminder” key.
3. Reset the driving distance to the new maintenance schedule.
4. To return to the previous screen, push the BACK button.
The unit can be converted between “US”
and “Metric”. (See “How to use SETTING button”
(P.4-16).)

BRAKING PRECAUTIONSY51D-V-E01-306DF583-15A7-4F2E-A62C-BF5322FC38D7The brake system has two separate hy-
draulic circuits. If one circuit malfunctions,
you will still have braking at two wheels.
Vacuum assisted brakesY51D-V-E01-78C52DD3-F84F-4DBD-A69F-5E2253E57FCEThe brake booster aids braking by using
engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you
can stop the vehicle by depressing the
brake pedal. However, greater foot pres-
sure on the brake pedal will be required to
stop the vehicle and the stopping distance
will be longer.
When the brake pedal is depressed slowly
and firmly, you may hear a clicking noise
and feel a slight pulsation. This is normal
and indicates that the Brake Assist System
is operating.
Wet brakesY51D-V-E01-4164933E-9063-4069-9B0B-00C0D135CBA1When the vehicle is washed or driven
through water, the brakes may get wet.
As a result, your braking distance will be
longer and the vehicle may pull to one side
during braking.
To dry brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe
speed while lightly tapping the brake pedal
to heat-up the brakes. Do this until the
brakes return to normal. Avoid driving thevehicle at high speeds until the brakes
function correctly.
PARKING BRAKE BREAK-INY51D-V-E01-8D2FFD7C-4467-45F7-A514-CBBDEBD1F7FBBreak in the parking brake shoes whenever
the stopping effect of the parking brake is
weakened or whenever the parking brake
shoes and/or drums/rotors are replaced,
in order to assure the best braking
performance.
This procedure is described in the vehicle
service manual and can be performed by
an INFINITI retailer.
Using the brakesY51D-V-E01-CBE6144D-573B-4C4C-8A27-7992EBD125D3Avoid resting your foot on the brake pedal
while driving. This will cause overheating
of the brakes, wearing out the brake and
pads faster and reduce gas mileage.
To help save the brakes and to prevent the
brakes from overheating, reduce speed
and downshift to a lower gear before going
down a slope or long grade. Overheated
brakes may reduce braking performance
and could result in loss of vehicle control.
WARNING
.
While driving on a slippery surface, be
careful when braking, accelerating or
downshifting. Abrupt braking or accel-
erating could cause the wheels to skid
and result in an accident.
. If the engine is not running or is turned
off while driving, the power assist for
the brakes will not work. Braking will be
harder.
