EV indicator light
This illuminates when the engine stops but the
vehicle is running.
Fog light indicator light
The front fog light indicator light illuminates when
the front fog lights are ON when the headlights
are ON. For additional information, refer to “Fog
light switch” in this section.
Front passenger air bag statuslight
The 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,
refer to “Front passenger air bag and status light”
in the “Safety — Seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system” section of this manual.
High beam indicator light(blue)
This blue light comes on when the headlight high
beams are on and goes out when the low beams
are selected. The high beam indicator light also comes on
when the passing signal is activated.
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA)
off indicator light (if so
equipped)
The light illuminates when the Warning System
Switch is off and the IBA is disabled in the Vehicle
Information Display. This indicates that the IBA
system is not operating.
When the IBA off indicator light illuminates while
the system is enabled this indicates that the
system control is temporarily disabled.
If the IBA off indicator light illuminates when the
system is enabled and the Warning System
switch is on, have the system checked at an
INFINITI retailer.
Low temperature indicatorlight
The low temperature indicator light illuminates
when the engine coolant temperature is low.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the low temperature indicator light illu-
minates and then turns off after the engine cool-
ant has warmed up. If the low temperature indicator light stays illumi-
nated after the engine has sufficiently warmed
up, it may indicate the low temperature sensor in
the engine coolant system is not functioning
properly and may need servicing. Have the sys-
tem checked, and if necessary repaired, by a
INFINITI retailer promptly.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
If this indicator light comes on steady or blinks
while the engine is running, it may indicate a
potential emission control malfunction.
The MIL 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 gal (11.4 L) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light comes on steady 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/maintenance test. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Readiness for inspection/maintenance
(I/M) test” in the “Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.

additional information, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual.

switch is placed to the ON position. The light will
turn off after about 2 seconds if the system is
operational. If the light stays on or comes on

XENON HEADLIGHTS
WARNING
cHIGH VOLTAGE
●When xenon headlights are on, they
produce a high voltage. To prevent an
electric shock, never attempt to modify
or disassemble. Always have your xe-
non headlights replaced at an INFINITI
retailer.
● Xenon headlights provide considerably
more light than conventional head-
lights. If they are not correctly aimed,
they might temporarily blind an oncom-
ing driver or the driver ahead of you and
cause a serious accident. If headlights
are not aimed correctly, immediately
take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer
and have the headlights adjusted
correctly.
When the xenon headlight is initially turned on, its
brightness or color varies slightly. However, the
color and brightness will soon stabilize.
