Message Possible causes/consequences and solutions
[Front Passenger Airbag
Disabled See Operator’s
Manual]The front-passenger front air bag is disabled during the journey although an adult or person of corresponding stature is on the front
passenger seat.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are properly seated and using the seat belt as outlined in this manual should not cause the
front passenger air bag to be automatically turned OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF, however if the occupant takes his/her
weight off the seat cushion (for example, by not sitting upright, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of position),
this could cause the sensor to turn the air bag OFF. Always be sure to be seated and wearing the seat belt properly for the most effective
protection by the seat belt and supplemental air bag.
If additional forces are applied to the seat, the system may interpret the occupant’s weight as lower than it actually is.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe area away from traffic as soon as possible, paying attention to road and traffic conditions.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
3. Switch the ignition off.
4. Have the occupant on the front-passenger seat step out of the vehicle.
5. Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front passenger door and switch on the ignition.
6. Observe the indicator lights in the center console and the vehicle information display and check the following.
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
- The and indicator lights must light up simultaneously for approximately six
seconds.
- The indicator lights must then light up and remain lit. If the indicator light is on, the automatic
front-passenger front air bag deactivation system has disabled the front-passenger front air bag (seeFront passenger air bag and
status lightin the1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint systemsection)
- the [Front Passenger Airbag Enabled See Operator’s Manual] or [Front Passenger Airbag Disabled See Operator’s Manual] display
messages must not be shown in the vehicle information display.
7. Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system checks have been completed.
8. Make sure that the display messages do not appear in the vehicle information display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied again. Whether the or indicator
light remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front passenger front air bag deactivation system classifies the occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.
Have the system checked immediately. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

Instruments and controls2-39

Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails. Cross bars (if so equipped) must be
installed before applying load/cargo/luggage
to the roof of the vehicle.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or its Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front and rear). The
GVWR and GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S.
or C.V. M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional information,
refer toVehicle loading informationin the10.
Technical informationsection.
WARNING
•Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying capac-
ity, especially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof rack.
•Heavy loading of the roof rack has the po-
tential to affect the vehicle stability and
handling during sudden or unusual han-
dling maneuvers.
•Roof rack load should be evenly distrib-
uted.
•Do not exceed maximum roof rack load
weight capacity.
•Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, unse-
cured cargo could cause personal injury.
CAUTION
Always install the cross bars (if so equipped)
onto the roof side rails before loading cargo of
any kind. Loading cargo directly onto the roof
side rails or the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
SKI HATCH (IF EQUIPPED)
To open the ski hatch:
1. Fold down rear seat armrest.
2. Pull the center head restraint on the rear
bench seat into the uppermost position.
3. Slide locking mechanism

In case of emergencysection.
TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When the low
tire pressure warning light is lit, one or more of
the tires is significantly under-inflated.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). Also,
this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example a flat tire while driving).
For additional information, refer toTire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)in the5. Starting and
drivingsection.
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressures (including the spare)
often and always prior to long distance trips.
The recommended tire pressure specifications
are shown on the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label or
the Tire and Loading Information label (if so
equipped) under the Cold Tire Pressure head-
ing. The Tire and Loading Information label is
affixed to the driver side center pillar. Tire
pressures should be checked regularly be-
cause:
•Most tires naturally lose air over time.
•Tires can lose air suddenly when driven over
potholes or other objects or if the vehicle
strikes a curb while parking.
The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered COLD
after the vehicle has been parked for 3 or more
hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at
moderate speeds.
WARNING
•Improperly inflated tires can fail suddenly
and cause an accident.
•The Gross Vehicle Weight rating (GVWR) is
located on the F.M.V.S. S./C.M.V.S.S. certi-
fication label. The vehicle weight capacity is
indicated on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion label (if so equipped). Do not load your
vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading
your vehicle may result in reduced tire life,
unsafe operating conditions due to prema-
ture tire failure, or unfavorable handling
characteristics and could also lead to a se-
rious accident. Loading beyond the speci-
fied capacity may also result in failure of
other vehicle components.
•Before taking a long trip, or whenever you
heavily load your vehicle, use a tire pres-
sure gauge to ensure that the tire pressures
are at the specified level.
•For additional information regarding tires,
refer to “Important Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada)
in the Warranty Information Booklet.

TIRE LABELING
Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place
standardized information on the sidewall of all
tires. This information identifies and describes
the fundamental characteristics of the tire and
also provides the tire identification number
(TIN) for safety standard certification. The TIN
can be used to identify the tire in case of a
recall.
1Tire size (example: P215/60R16 94H)
1 P: The “P” indicates the tire is designed for
passenger vehicles. (Not all tires have this
information.)
2 Three-digit number (215): This number
gives the width in millimeters of the tire
from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
3 Two-digit number (60): This number,
known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire’s
ratio of height to width.
4 R: The “R” stands for radial.
5 Two-digit number (16): This number is the
wheel or rim diameter in inches.
6 Two- or three-digit number (94): This num-
ber is the tire’s load index. It is a mea-
surement of how much weight each tire
can support. You may not find this infor-
mation on all tires because it is not re-
quired by law.7 H: Tire speed rating. You should not drive
the vehicle faster than the tire speed rat-
ing.
