2017 INFINITI QX30 maintenance reset

pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation label located in the driver’s door open-
ing, seeTire and loading information label in
the 9. Maintenance and Schedules section.
The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recom-
mended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at
speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning
light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
The low tire pressure warning message appears
each time the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position as long as the low tire pressure warn-
ing light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see Vehicle infor-
mation display later in this section and Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) in the
5. Starting and driving section.
TPMS malfunction
:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position. The light will remain
on after 1 minute. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. The low tire pressure warning
does not appear if the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates to indicate a TPMS malfunc-
tion.
For additional information, see
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) in the5. Starting
and driving section.
WARNING
•Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use a pace-
maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible in-
fluences before use.
•If the light does not illuminate with the ig-
nition switch pushed ON, have the vehicle
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
•If the light illuminates while driving, avoid
sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt brak-
ing, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage the
tires and increase the likelihood of tire fail-
ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur
and may lead to an accident and could result
in serious personal injury or death. Check the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure shown on the tire placard, located
in the driver’s door opening, to turn the low
tire pressure warning light off. If the light
still illuminates while driving after adjust-
ing the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a replacement
tire as soon as possible.
•If a replacement tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced without a TPMS sensor tire pres-
sure will not be indicated, 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. Have
your vehicle’s tires replaced and/or TPMS
system reset as soon as possible. It is rec-
ommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
these services.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
•The TPMS is not a substitute for the regular
tire pressure check. Be sure to check the tire
pressure regularly.

Confirm the following for the TPMS:
WARNING
•The use of tires other than those recom-
mended or the mixed use of tires of different
brands, construction (bias, bias-belted or
radial), or tread patterns can adversely af-
fect the ride, braking, handling, VDC sys-
tem, ground clearance, body-to-tire clear-
ance, tire chain clearance, speedometer
calibration, headlight aim and bumper
height. Some of these effects may lead to
accidents and could result in serious per-
sonal injury.
•For 2WD models, if your vehicle was origi-
nally equipped with 4 tires that were the
same size and you are only replacing 2 of
the 4 tires, install the new tires on the rear
axle. Placing new tires on the front axle may
cause loss of vehicle control in some driving
conditions and cause an accident and per-
sonal injury.
•If the wheels are changed for any reason,
always replace with wheels which have the
same off-set dimension. Wheels of a differ-
ent off-set could cause premature tire wear,
degrade vehicle handling characteristics,
affect the VDC system and/or interference
with the brake discs. Such interference canlead to decreased braking efficiency and/or
early brake pad wear. For additional infor-
mation on wheel off-set dimensions, refer to
Wheels and Tires
in the9. Maintenance
and Schedules section.
•When a replacement tire is mounted or a
wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not func-
tion and the low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1 minute. The
light will remain on after 1 minute. Contact
an INFINITI retailer as soon as possible for
tire replacement and/or system resetting.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the proper
operation of the TPMS.
•The TPMS sensor may be damaged if it is not
handled correctly. Be careful when handling
the TPMS sensor.
•When replacing the TPMS sensor, the ID
registration may be required. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
ID registration.
•Do not use a valve stem cap that is not speci-
fied by INFINITI. The valve stem cap may
become stuck.
•Be sure that the valve stem caps are cor-
rectly fitted. Otherwise the valve may be clogged up with dirt and cause a malfunc-
tion or loss of pressure.
•Do not install a damaged or deformed wheel
or tire even if it has been repaired. Such
wheels or tires could have structural dam-
age and could fail without warning.
•The use of retread tires is not recom-
mended.
•For additional information regarding tires,
refer to
Important Tire Safety Information
(US) or Tire Safety Information (Canada) in
the Warranty Information Booklet.
Care of wheels
•Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle
to maintain their appearance.
•Clean the inner side of the wheels when the
wheel is changed or the underside of the
vehicle is washed.
•Do not use abrasive cleaners when washing
the wheels.
•Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or
corrosion. Such damage may cause loss of
pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.

Information about service
Resetting the maintenance service interval display:
CAUTION
If the maintenance service interval display has
been inadvertently reset, this setting can be
corrected at an INFINITI retailer.
Have service work carried out as described in
the Maintenance Schedule. This may other-
wise lead to increased wear and damage to the
major assemblies or the vehicle. An INFINITI retailer will reset the maintenance
service interval display after the service work
has been carried out. You can also obtain
further information on maintenance work, for
example.
Special service requirements
:
The prescribed service interval is based on
normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
vehicle is operated under arduous conditions or
increased loads, for example:
•Regular city driving with frequent intermedi-
ate stops
•If the vehicle is primarily used to travel short
distance
•For frequent operation in mountainous ter-
rain or on poor road surfaces
•If the engine is often left idling for long
periods
In these or similar operating conditions, have,
for example, the air filter, engine oil and oil
filter changed more frequently. The tires must
be checked more frequently if the vehicle is
operated under increased loads. Further infor-
mation can be obtained at an INFINITI retailer.
9-8Maintenance and Schedules

For Canada:
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect
which could cause a crash or could cause injury
or death, you should immediately inform Trans-
port Canada in addition to notifying INFINITI.
If Transport Canada receives complaints, it may
open an investigation, and if it finds that a
safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it
may request that INFINITI conduct a recall cam-
paign. However, Transport Canada cannot be-
come involved in individual problems between
you, your retailer, or INFINITI.
You may contact Transport Canada’s Defect
Investigations and Recalls Division toll free at
1-800-333- 0510. You may also report safety
defects online at:
https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec- Sur/7/
PCDB-BDPP/Index.aspx.
Additional information concerning motor ve-
hicle safety may be obtained from Transport
Canada’s Road Safety Information Center at
1-800-333- 0371 or online at www.tc.gc.ca/
roadsafety (English speakers) or www.tc.gc.ca/

To notify INFINITI of any safety concerns please
contact our Consumer Information Center toll
free at 1-800- 361-4792.WARNING
A vehicle equipped with All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
should never be tested using a two wheel dy-
namometer (such as the dynamometers used
by some states for emissions testing), or simi-
lar equipment. Make sure you inform test facil-
ity personnel that your vehicle is equipped
with AWD before it is placed on a dynamom-
eter. Using the wrong test equipment may re-
sult in transmission damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could result in serious
vehicle damage or personal injury.
Due to legal requirements in some states and
Canadian Provinces, your vehicle may be re-
quired to be in what is called the “ready
condition” for an Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
test of the emission control system.
The vehicle is set to the “ready condition” when
it is driven through certain driving patterns.
Usually, the “ready condition” can be obtained
by ordinary usage of the vehicle.
If a powertrain system component is repaired or
the battery is disconnected, the vehicle may be
reset to a “not ready condition”. Before taking
the I/M test, check the vehicle’s inspection/
maintenance test readiness condition. Place the
ignition switch in the ON position without start- ing the engine. If the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) comes on steady for 20 seconds and then
blinks for 10 seconds, the I/M test condition is
“not ready”. If the MIL does not blink after 20
seconds, the I/M test condition is “ready”.
It is recommended you contact an INFINITI re-
tailer to set the “ready condition” or to prepare
the vehicle for testing.
