2014 INFINITI QX60 HYBRID Owner's Manual

Hydraulic brake system warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position and the hybrid system is in the READY
mode, this light warns that the hydraulic brake
system is not functioning properly. If the brake
warning light comes on with the parking brake not
applied when the hybrid system is in READY
mode, perform the following:1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as necessary. See “Brake fluid” in the Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section of your
INFINITI Owner’s Manual.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked by an INFINITI re-
tailer.
If the hydraulic brake warning light comes on
when the parking brake is not applied and the
electronically controlled brake system warning
light also comes on, stop the vehicle immediately
and call an INFINITI retailer.WARNING
● Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on. Driv-
ing could be dangerous. If you judge it
to be safe, drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Otherwise,
have your vehicle towed because driv-
ing it could be dangerous.
● Pressing the brake pedal with the en-
gine stopped and/or a low brake fluid
level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require greater
pedal effort as well as pedal travel.
● If the brake fluid level is below the
MINIMUM or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked at an
INFINITI retailer. ●
Your brake system may not be working
properly if both the brake warning light
and electronically controlled brake sys-
tem light come on when the hybrid sys-
tem is in READY mode and the parking
brake is not applied. Driving could be
dangerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest service
station for repairs. Otherwise, have your
vehicle towed because driving it could
be dangerous.

ing properly if the 12–volt battery charge
warning light comes on while the hybrid
system is running. The hybrid system will

nents. Stop your vehicle immediately and contact
your INFINITI retailer.

tioning properly. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer.
If the hydraulic brake warning light also comes on

vehicle
immediately and call an INFINITI re-
tailer. For additional information, see “Brake sys-
tem” in the “Starting and driving” section of the
