Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Inflation Indicator
A Tire Pressure Low - Add Air
warning message will
appear in the vehicle information display
1 and the
low tire pressure warning light 2 will illuminate when
one or more tires are low in pressure and air is needed.
•
The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
When adding air to an under-inflated tire, the TPMS
with Tire Inflation Indicator provides visual and audible signals to hel\
p you
inflate the tire to the recommended COLD tire pressure.
To use the tire inflation indicator:
1.
Move the shift lever to the
P (PARK) position and apply the parking brake.
2.
Place the ignition switch in the
ON position. Do not start the engine.
3.
Add air to the under-inflated tire, and within a few seconds, the hazard\
warning lights will
start flashing.
4.
When the designated tire pressure is reached, the horn will beep once an\
d the hazard
warning flashers will stop flashing.
5.
Repeat this procedure for any additional under-inflated tires.
After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above 16 \
mph (25 km/h). The
Tire Pressure Low - Add Air warning message and low tire pressure warning light
will extinguish.
Hybrid Awareness
Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your \
vehicle while it is ON
but the engine is not running, the engine will automatically start, info\
rming you that the
car is still ON.
Do not store your INFINITI Intelligent Key within the detection range of\
the vehicle. This
may cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating unwan\
ted battery drain.
The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Ac\
tivation of the
electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full \
battery display does
not indicate the vehicle should be in the electric mode.
For more information, refer to the “HEV Overview (section HEV)” of your Owner’s Manual.
Direct Response Hybrid Warning Light
This light will illuminate when the ignition switch is in the ON position
and will extinguish when the hybrid system is started.
The light will also illuminate when a malfunction occurs in the
electric motor or hybrid system.
When this light illuminates while driving, immediately stop the vehicle \
in a safe location
and contact an INFINITI retailer.
If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate\
that the Li-ion
battery charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” of your Owner’s Manual.
