Menu ItemResult
Fuel Economy Displays Fuel Economy menu.
Distance to Empty Displays an estimation of the distance that the vehicle can be driven before refueling. The DTE is constantly calculated based on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and actual fuel consumption. The display is updated every 30 seconds. When the fuel level is low, the DTE
display will change to (*) .
NOTE:If the amount of fuel added while the ignition switch is OFF is small, the display just before the ignition switch is turned OFF may
continue to be displayed.
NOTE:When driving uphill or rounding curves, the fuel in the tank shifts, which may momentarily change the display.
Average Fuel Economy Displays the average fuel economy since the last reset. The display is updated every 30 seconds and 500 m (1/3 mi) . After a reset or connecting the battery cables, the display might show (**.*) .
Resetting Fuel Economy The average fuel economy calculation can be reset to 0. Press the INFO button and select the “Fuel Economy” key, then select the “Re- set” key using the INFINITI controller and press the ENTER button.
Fuel Economy Record Select the “View” key to display the average fuel consumption history in a graph form.
Maintenance Items Displays maintenance reminders.
Reminder keys (1–4) Select a key to display that maintenance interval. Reset Distance
key Resets the distance for the selected reminder to 0 mi (km) .
Interval key Displays the interval for the selected reminder. Select the “+” or “-” keys to adjust the distance up or down.
Interval Re-
minder key Displays status of the selected interval reminder. Select to toggle on or off. If set to “On”, the maintenance notice screen will be displayed
once the interval is met and the ignition switch is placed in the OFF and then ON position.

●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 avail-
able to ensure that all methanol blends
are suitable for use in INFINITI ve-
hicles.
If any driveability problems such as engine stall-
ing and difficult 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 refu-
eling. 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. gov-
ernment regulations require fuel ethanol dispens-
ing pumps to be identified with small, square, orange and black label with the common abbre-
viation 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 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 (for example, fuel injec-
tor 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 solvents 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 can cause
persistent, heavy “spark knock.” (“Spark
knock” is a metallic rapping noise.) If se-
vere, this can lead to engine damage. If youdetect 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 may result in spark
knock, after-run and/or overheating, which may
cause excessive fuel consumption or engine
damage. If any of the above symptoms are en-
countered, have your vehicle checked at an
INFINITI retailer.
However, now and then you may notice
light spark knock for a short time while
accelerating or driving up hills. This is not a
cause for concern, because you get the
greatest fuel benefit when there is light
spark knock for a short time under heavy
engine load.
