Some day-to-day and regular maintenance is
essential to maintain your vehicle’s good me-
chanical condition, as well as its emission and
engine performance.
It is the owner’s responsibility to make sure that
the specified maintenance, as well as general
maintenance, is performed.
As the vehicle owner, you are the only one who
can ensure that your vehicle receives the proper
maintenance care. You are a vital link in the
maintenance chain.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General maintenance includes those items
which should be checked during normal day-to-
day operation of the vehicle. They are essential
if your vehicle is to continue to operate prop-
erly. It is your responsibility to perform these
procedures regularly as prescribed.
Performing general maintenance checks re-
quires minimal mechanical skill and only a few
general automotive tools.
These checks and inspections can be done by
yourself, a qualified technician, or if you prefer,
an INFINITI retailer.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The maintenance items listed underMainte-
nance scheduleslater in this section are re-
quired to be serviced at regular intervals. How-
ever under severe driving conditions, additional
or more frequent maintenance will be required.
WHERE TO GO FOR SERVICE
If maintenance service is required or your ve-
hicle appears to malfunction, have the systems
checked and serviced. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
INFINITI technicians are well-trained specialists
and are kept up to date with the latest service
information through technical bulletins, service
tips and training programs. They are completely
qualified to work on INFINITI vehiclesbefore
work begins.
You can be confident that an INFINITI retailer’s
service department can perform the service
needed to meet the maintenance requirements
on your vehicle.During normal day-to-day operation of the ve-
hicle, general maintenance should be per-
formed regularly as prescribed in this section. If
you detect any unusual sounds, vibrations or
smells, be sure to check for the cause or have
an INFINITI retailer do it promptly. In addition, it
is recommended you notify an INFINITI retailer if
you think that repairs are required.
When performing any checks or maintenance
work, closely observeExplanation of general
maintenance itemslater in this section.
