MODELS WITH IDLE STOP/START
SYSTEM
•Ensure that the battery fitted is the special
battery that is enhanced with regard to the
charge-discharge capacity and life perfor-
mance. Avoid using any other battery for the

early deterioration of the battery or a mal-
function of the Idle Stop/Start System. It is
recommended that a Genuine INFINITI bat-
tery is fitted. For more information, it is
recommended that you contact an INFINITI
retailer.
•If the battery terminal is disconnected (for
battery replacement, etc.) and then recon-
nected, there may be some delay before the
Stop/Start System reactivates.

the intake air, it also stops the flame if the
engine backfires. If the air cleaner is not
installed and the engine backfires, you
could be burned. Never drive with the air
cleaner filter off. Be cautious working on the
engine when the air cleaner is off.
•Never pour fuel into the throttle body or
attempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result in
serious injury.
CLEANING
If the windshield or rear window is not clear
after using the window washer or if a wiper
blade chatters when running, wax or other
material may be on the blade or windshield.
Clean the outside of the windshield or rear
window with a washer solution or a mild deter-
gent. The windshield or rear window is clean if
beads do not form when rinsing with clear
water.
Clean the blade by wiping it with a cloth soaked
in a washer solution or a mild detergent. Then
rinse the blade with clear water. If the wind-
shield or rear window is still not clear after
cleaning the blades and using the wiper, re-
place the blades.
CAUTION
Worn windshield wiper blades can damage the
windshield and impair driver vision.
