•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. It is rec-
ommended you 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.
•If you used Emergency Tire Sealant to repair
a minor tire puncture, the TPMS sensor
should be checked when repairing or re-
placing the tire. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When the low
tire pressure warning light is lit, and a tire
pressure-related warning (if equipped) appears
in the vehicle information display, one or more
of your tires is significantly under-inflated. If
the vehicle is being driven with low tire pres-
sure, the TPMS will activate and warn you of it
by the low tire pressure warning light (in the
meter panel). This system will activate only
when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16MPH (25 km/h).
For more details about the TPMS, seeTire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)in the5.

RUN-FLAT TIRES
With special run-flat tires, you can continue to
drive your vehicle even if there is a total loss of
pressure in one or more tires. The affected tire
must not show any clearly visible damage.
You can recognise run-flat tires by the marking
which appears on the tire side wall. You will
find this marking next to the tire size designa-
tion, the load-bearing capacity and the speed
index.Run-flat tires may only be used in conjunction
with an activated tire pressure loss warning
system or tire pressure monitor.
Pressure loss warning message
If a pressure loss warning message appears in
the vehicle information display:
•Observe the instructions in the display
messages.
•Check the tire for damage.
•If driving on, observe the following notes.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode is
approximately 50 miles (80 km) when the ve-
hicle is partially laden and approximately 20
miles (30 km) when the vehicle is fully laden.
In addition to the vehicle load, the driving
distance possible depends upon:
•Vehicle speed.
•Road condition.
•Outside temperature.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
may be reduced by extreme driving conditions/
maneuvers, or it can be increased through a
moderate style of driving.NIC2686

Check the fluid level in the reservoir. If the
brake fluid is below the MIN line
2, the brake
warning light will illuminate. Add brake fluid up
to the MAX line
1. For additional information
on the recommended type of brake fluid, refer
Recommended fluids/lubricants and
capacitiesin the9. Maintenance and Sched-
ulessection.
If the brake fluid must be added frequently, the
brake system should be thoroughly checked. It
is recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.Fill the windshield-washer fluid reservoir peri-
odically. Add fluid when the low washer fluid
warning appears on the vehicle information
display.
To fill the windshield-washer fluid reservoir, lift
the cap off the reservoir and pour the
windshield-washer fluid into the reservoir open-
ing.
Add a washer solvent to the washer for better
cleaning. In the winter season, add a
windshield-washer antifreeze. Follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions for the mixture ratio.
Refill the reservoir more frequently when driv-
ing conditions require an increased amount of
windshield-washer fluid.
Recommended fluid is Genuine INFINITI Wind-
shield Washer Concentrate Cleaner & Antifreeze
or equivalent.
CAUTION
•Do not substitute engine antifreeze coolant
for window washer solution. This may result
in damage to the paint.
•Do not fill the window washer reservoir tank
with washer fluid concentrates at full
strength. Some methyl alcohol based
washer fluid concentrates may permanently
stain the grille if spilled while filling the
window washer reservoir tank.
•Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with wa-
ter to the manufacturer’s recommended lev-
els before pouring the fluid into the window
washer reservoir tank. Do not use the win-
dow washer reservoir tank to mix the
washer fluid concentrate and water.

REINITIALISATION PROCEDURE AFTER
BATTERY RECONNECTION
If the battery has been reconnected, check the
following items:
•Clock setting (if so equipped). For details,
seeClockin the2. Instruments and con-
trolssection, or the separately provided
navigation system Owner’s Manual, or the
audio device descriptions inAudio system
(if equipped)in the4. Display screen,
heater and air conditioner, and audio sys-
temsection.
•Reset the desired radio stations to the
preset station buttons. For details, see the
audio device descriptions in the “4. Heater
and air conditioner, and audio system”.
JUMP-STARTING
If jump-starting is necessary, seeJump
startingin the6. In case of emergencysec-
tion. If the engine does not start by jump
starting, the battery may have to be replaced. It
is recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
WARNING
Be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF posi-
tion before servicing drive belt. The engine
could rotate unexpectedly.
1. Visually inspect each belt for signs of un-
usual wear, cuts, fraying or looseness. If the
belt is in poor condition or loose, have it
replaced or adjusted. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
2. Have the belts checked regularly for condi-
tion and tension in accordance with the
maintenance schedule as shown in a sepa-
rately provided Warranty Information and
Maintenance booklet.
NDI1635
DRIVE BELT
8-12Do-it-yourself
Steering gear and linkage, axle and suspension
parts, drive shaft boots:
Check for damage, looseness, and leakage of
oil or grease. Under severe driving conditions,
inspect more frequently
Tire rotation:
Tires should be rotated every 6,000 miles
(10,000 km) for 2WD, every 3000 miles (5000
km) for 4WD/AWD according to the instructions
underTire rotation*earlier in this section“Ge-
neral maintenance” in this section. When rotat-
ing tires, check for damage and uneven wear.
Replace if necessary.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil, transfer
case oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at specified
intervals.To ensure smooth, trouble-free, safe and eco-
nomical driving, INFINITI provides two mainte-
nance schedules that may be used, depending
upon the conditions in which you usually drive.
These schedules contain both distance and
time intervals, up to 120,000 miles (192,000
km)/144 months. For most people, the odom-
eter reading will indicate when service is
needed. However, if you drive very little, your
vehicle should be serviced at the regular time
intervals shown in the schedule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144 months,
continue maintenance at the same mileage/time
intervals.
ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ITEMS
FOR SEVERE OPERATING SYSTEMS
Additional maintenance items for severe oper-
ating conditions; should be performed on ve-
hicles that are driven under especially demand-
ing conditions. Additional maintenance items
should be performed if you primarily operate
your vehicle under the following conditions:
•Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles in
normal temperatures or less than 10 miles in
freezing temperatures.
•Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or low
speed driving for long distances.
•Driving in dusty conditions or on rough,
muddy or salt-spread roads.
•Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-top
carrier.
OIL CHANGE MONITOR
This vehicle is equipped with oil change moni-
tor. It calculates engine oil and filter change
interval base on driving conditions. Driving in
severe conditions will shorten the engine oil
and filter change interval. When the Engine Oil
– Service Due Now warning appears in the
vehicle information display, the engine oil and
filter need to be replaced.
NOTE
For vehicles operated in Canada, both standard
and severe maintenance items should be per-
formed at every interval.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

•[Service A Due]
•[Service A Exceeded by .. days]
Depending on the operating conditions of the
vehicle, the remaining time or distance until the
next service due date is displayed.
The letter indicates which service is due. A
stands for a minor service and B for a major
service. A number or another letter may be
displayed after the letter.
Only for certain countries: the position after the
letter A or B indicates any necessary additional
maintenance work. If you notify an INFINITI
retailer of this display, you will receive a state-
ment on the associated costs.The maintenance service interval display does
not take into account any periods of time during
which the battery is disconnected.
Maintaining the time-dependent service sched-
ule:
Note down the service due date displayed in the
vehicle information display before disconnect-
ing the battery.
