2017 INFINITI QX30 warning

The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
counted from the moment the tire pressure loss
warning appears in the vehicle information dis-
play.
You must not exceed a maximum speed of 50
MPH (80 km/h).
When replacing one or all tires, observe the
following specifications for your vehicle’s tires:
•Size
•Type
•Run-flat mark
If a tire has gone flat and cannot be replaced
with a run flat tire, a standard tire may be used
as a temporary measure. Make sure that you
use the proper size and type (summer or winter
tire).
WARNING
Do not exceed the stated maximum speed.
Avoid abrupt steering and driving maneuvers,
and driving over obstacles (curbs, pot holes,
off road). This applies in particular to a laden
vehicle.
Stop driving in emergency mode if:
•You hear banging noises.
•The vehicle starts to shake.
•You see smoke and smell rubber.
•VDC is intervening constantly.
•There are tears in the sidewalls of the tire.
After driving in emergency mode, have the
wheel rims checked with regard to their further
use. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service. The faulty tire must be
replaced.

For the jump-starting procedure, use only the
jump-starting connection point, consisting of a
positive terminal and an earth point, in the
engine compartment.
WARNING
•If done incorrectly, jump starting can lead
to a battery explosion, resulting in severe
injury or death. It could also damage your
vehicle.
•Explosive hydrogen gas is always present
in the vicinity of the battery. Keep all sparks
and flames away from the battery.
•Do not allow battery fluid to come into con-
tact with eyes, skin, clothes or painted sur-
faces. Battery fluid is a corrosive sulfuric
acid which can cause severe burns. If the
fluid should come into contact with any-
thing, immediately flush the contacted area
with water.

dren.
•The booster battery must be rated at 12
volts. Use of an improperly rated battery can
damage your vehicle.

ample, goggles or industrial safety spec-
tacles) and remove rings, metal bands, or
any other jewelry. Do not lean over the bat-
tery when jump starting.
•Do not attempt to jump start a frozen bat-
tery. It could explode and cause serious in-
jury.

When towing your vehicle, all jurisdictions and
local regulations for towing must be followed.
Incorrect towing equipment could damage your
vehicle. Towing instructions are available from
an INFINITI retailer. Local service operators are
generally familiar with the applicable laws and
procedures for towing. To assure proper towing
and to prevent accidental damage to your ve-
hicle, INFINITI recommends having a service
operator tow your vehicle. It is advisable to
have the service operator carefully read the
following precautions.
WARNING
•Never ride in a vehicle that is being towed.
•Never get under your vehicle after it has
been lifted by a tow truck.
CAUTION
•When towing, make sure that the transmis-
sion, axles, steering system and powertrain
are in working condition. If any of these con-
ditions apply, dollies or a flatbed tow truck
must be used.
•Always attach safety chains before towing.
TOWING RECOMMENDED BY INFINITI
INFINITI recommends towing your vehicle based
upon the type of drivetrain. Please refer to the
diagrams in this section to ensure that your
vehicle is properly towed.

CAUTION
NEVER tow automatic transmission (DCT) mod-
els with the front wheels on the ground or with
all four wheels on the ground (forwards or
backwards), as this may cause serious and ex-
pensive damage to the transmission. If it is
necessary to tow the vehicle with the rear
wheels raised, always use towing dollies un-
der the front wheels.
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) models
INFINITI recommends that towing dollies be
used under the front or rear wheels when
towing your vehicle or the vehicle be placed on
a flatbed tow truck as illustrated.
CAUTION

on the ground. Doing so will cause serious and
expensive damage to the drivetrain.
