WARNING
•Never leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be-
come involved in a serious accident and in-
jure themselves. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal illness to people or animals.
•Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.
•To avoid raising the center of gravity exces-
sively, do not exceed the rated capacity of
the roof rack (if so equipped) and evenly
distribute the load.
EXHAUST GAS (CARBON MONOXIDE)
WARNING
•Do not breathe exhaust gas; it contains col-
orless and odorless carbon monoxide. Car-
bon monoxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
•If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open, and have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
•Do not run the engine in closed spaces such
as a garage.
•Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for an extended period of time.
•Keep the lift gate closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gas could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive
with the lift gate open, follow these precau-
tions:– Open all the windows.
– Turn the air recirculation switch off and
set the fan control to the highest level to
circulate the air.
•If electrical wiring or other cable connec-
tions must pass to a trailer through the seal
ion the lift gate or body, follow the manufac- turer’s recommendations to prevent carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle.
•The exhaust system and body should be
inspected by a qualified mechanic when-
ever:
– You suspect that exhaust fumes are en-
tering into the passenger compartment.
– You notice a change in the sound of the
exhaust system.
– You have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody,
or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST (IF EQUIPPED)
The three-way catalyst is an emission control
device installed in the exhaust system. Exhaust
gas in the three-way catalyst is burned at high
temperatures to help reduce pollutants.
WARNING
•The exhaust gas and the exhaust system
are very hot. Keep people, animals and
flammable materials away from the exhaust
system components.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING AND
DRIVING
5-4Starting and driving
The vehicle’s wheels have sensors fitted that
monitor the tire pressures in all four tires The
tire pressure monitor warns you if the pressure
drops in one or more of the tires The tire
pressure monitor only functions if the corre-
sponding sensors are fitted to all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is shown in the
vehicle information display. After a few minutes
of driving, the current tire pressure of each tire
is shown in the [Serv.] menu of the vehicle
information display.
WARNING
•Radio waves could adversely affect electri-
cal medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemake should contact their electrical
medical equipment manufacturer for the
pssible influences before use.
•If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates or a tire pressure-related warning is
displayed by the vehicle information dis-
play while driving, avoid sudden steering
maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce ve-
hicle speed, pull off the road to a safe loca-
tion and stop the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible. Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and increase
the likelihood of tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to an ac-cident and could result in serious personal
injury. Check the tire pressure for all four
tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
tire and loading information label to turn
the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If
you have a flat tire, replace it with a replace-
ment tire as soon as possible.
•If a replacement wheel is fitted without an
INFINITI TPMS Sensor, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure warning
light will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The light will remain on after 1 minute. It is
recommended you contact an INFINITI re-
tailer as soon as possible for tire replace-
ment and/or system resetting.
•For models with run-flat tires, although you
can continue driving with a punctured run-
flat tire, remember that vehicle handling
stability is reduced, which could lead to an
accident and personal injury. Also, driving a
long distance at high speeds may damage
the tires.
– Do not drive at speeds above 50 MPH (80
km/h) and do not drive more than ap-
proximately 93 miles (150 km) with a
punctured run-flat tire. The actual dis-
tance the vehicle can be driven on a flat
NSD633
5-6Starting and driving
tire depends on outside temperature, ve-
hicle load, road conditions and other fac-
tors.
– If you detect any unusual sounds or vi-
brations while driving with a punctured
run-flat tire, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop the vehicle as soon as
possible. The tire may be seriously dam-
aged and need to be replaced.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
•If you used Emergency Tire Sealant to repair
a minor tire puncture, the TPMS sensor
should be checked when repairing or re-
placing the tire (for models equipped with
the emergency tire puncture repair kit). It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
•INFINITI recommends using only INFINITI
Genuine Emergency Tire Sealant provided
with your vehicle. Other tire sealants may
damage the valve stem seal which can
cause the tire to lose air pressure (for mod-
els equipped with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit).
CAUTION
•The TPMS may not function properly when
the wheels are equipped with snow chains
or the wheels are buried in snow.
•Do not place metalized film or any metal
parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows. This
may cause poor reception of the signals
from the tire pressure sensors, and the
TPMS will not function properly.
It is the driver’s responsibility to set the tire
pressure to the recommended cold tire pressure
suitable for the operating situation (see
Wheels and tires in the8. Do-it-yourself
section). Note that the correct tire pressure for
the current operating situation must first be
taught-in to the tire pressure monitor (see
Restarting TPMS later in this section).
If there is a substantial loss of pressure, the
warning threshold for the warning message is
aligned to the reference values taught-in. Re-
start the tire pressure monitor after adjusting to
the cold tire pressure. The current pressures are
saved as new reference values. This will ensure
that a warning message will only appear if the
tire pressure drops significantly. The tire pressure monitor does not warn you of
an incorrectly set tire pressure.
TPMS is not able to warn you of a sudden loss
of pressure, e. g. if the tire is penetrated by a
foreign object. In the event of a sudden loss of
pressure, bring the vehicle to a halt by braking
carefully. Avoid abrupt steering maneuvers.
TPMS has a yellow warning lamp in the combi-
nation meter for indicating a pressure loss or
malfunction. Depending on how the warning
lamp flashes or lights up, a tire pressure that is
too low or a malfunction in TPMS is indicated:
•If the warning lamp is lit continuously, the
tire pressure on one or more tires is signifi-
cantly too low. TPMS is not malfunctioning.
•If the warning lamp flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the
TPMS is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a message
appears in the vehicle information display. Ob-
serve the information on display messages (see
Safety systems in the2. Instruments and
controls section
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunction
of the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. A
malfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
