11. Chassis control
When Active Lane Control (if so equipped) or
the active trace control system is operated, it
shows the operating condition. See “Active
Lane Control” (P.5-26) and “Active trace
control” (P.5-136) for more details.
12. Oil control system (for
VR30DDTT engine models)
Engine oil information informs the distance
to oil change.
Distance to oil change:
The distance to oil change is displayed if the
distance to oil change comes to be less than
940 miles (1,500 km).
Oil replacement indicator:
When the set mileage approaches, the
engine oil replacement indicator will appear
on the display. After the oil is changed, reset
the oil control system by pushing the
orswitch for longer than 1 second.
The oil change interval cannot be adjusted
manually. The distance to oil change interval
is calculated depending on the driving con-
ditions and set automatically by the oil
control system.
CAUTION
If the oil replacement indicator is dis-
played, change the engine oil as soon as
possible. Operating your vehicle with
deteriorated oil can damage the engine.
Warning check
The present warnings are displayed. If no
warning is present, “No Warning” is dis-
played.

5-132Starting and driving
a straight road for a period of time.
.After the engine is started, the steering
wheel may move if the steering wheel
was turned to the fully locked position
while the ignition switch was in the OFF
position.
.After the vehicle is tested on the 4-wheel
dynamometer, the steering wheel may
turn slightly even when driving on a
straight road. To return the steering
wheel to the normal position, drive the
vehicle on a straight road for a period of
time.
You may hear a noise under the following
conditions. However, this is not a malfunc-
tion.
.When the engine is started or stopped.
.When the steering wheel is turned in the
full lock position.BRAKING PRECAUTIONS
The brake system has two separate hydrau-
lic circuits. If one circuit malfunctions, you
will still have braking at two wheels.
Vacuum assisted brakes
The brake booster aids braking by using
engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you can
stop the vehicle by depressing the brake
pedal. However, greater foot pressure on
the brake pedal will be required to stop the
vehicle and the stopping distance will be
longer.
Using the brakes
Avoid resting your foot on the brake pedal
while driving. This will cause overheating of
the brakes, wearing out the brake and pads
faster and reduce gas mileage.
To help save the brakes and to prevent the
brakes from overheating, reduce speed and
downshift to a lower gear before going
down a slope or long grade. Overheated
brakes may reduce braking performance and
could result in loss of vehicle control.
WARNING
.While driving on a slippery surface,
be careful when braking, acceleratingor downshifting. Abrupt braking or
accelerating could cause the wheels
to skid and result in an accident.
.If the engine is not running or is
turned off while driving, the power
assist for the brakes will not work.
Braking will be harder.
Wet brakes
When the vehicle is washed or driven
through water, the brakes may get wet. As
a result, your braking distance will be longer
and the vehicle may pull to one side during
braking.
To dry brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe
speed while lightly tapping the brake pedal
to heat-up the brakes. Do this until the
brakes return to normal. Avoid driving the
vehicle at high speeds until the brakes
function correctly.
PARKING BRAKE BREAK-IN
Break in the parking brake shoes whenever
the stopping effect of the parking brake is
weakened or whenever the parking brake
shoes and/or drums/rotors are replaced, in
order to assure the best braking perfor-
mance.
This procedure is described in the vehicle
service manual. It is recommended you visit

9-6Maintenance and schedules
Fuel lines*:
Check the fuel hoses, piping and connections
for leaks, looseness, or deterioration. Tight-
en connections or replace parts as necessary.
Spark plugs:
Replace at specified intervals. Install new
plugs of the type as originally equipped.
CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTE-
NANCE
Brake lines and cables:
Visually inspect for proper installation.
Check for chafing, cracks, deterioration,
and signs of leaking. Replace any deterio-
rated or damaged parts immediately.
Brake pads, rotors, drums and linings:
Check for wear, deterioration and fluid
leaks. Replace any deteriorated or damaged
parts immediately.
Exhaust system:
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler
and hangers for leaks, cracks, deterioration,
and damage. Tighten connections or replace
parts as necessary.
In-cabin microfilter:
Replace at specified intervals. When driving
for prolonged periods in dusty conditions,
replace the filter more frequently.Propeller shaft(s):
Check for damage, looseness, and grease
leakage. (4WD/AWD/RWD)
Steering gear and linkage, axle and suspen-
sion parts, drive shaft boots:
Check for damage, looseness, and leakage
of oil or grease. Under severe driving condi-
tions, inspect more frequently.
Tire rotation:
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles
(8,000 km) according to the instructions
under “Explanation of general maintenance
items” (P.9-2). When rotating tires, check for
damage and uneven wear. Replace if neces-
sary.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil and
transfer case oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at
specified intervals.
To help ensure smooth, safe and economical
driving, INFINITI provides two maintenance
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 peo-
ple, the odometer 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
CONDITIONS
Additional maintenance items for severe
operating conditions;should be performed
on vehicles that are driven under especially
demanding conditions. Additional mainte-
nance items should be performed if you
primarily operate your vehicle under the
following conditions:
.Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles
(8 km).
.Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles
(16 km) with outside temperatures re-
maining below freezing.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

.Operating in hot weather in stop-and-go
“rush hour” traffic.
.Extensive idling and/or low speed driving
for long distances, such as police, taxi or
door-to-door delivery use.
.Driving in dusty conditions.
.Driving on rough, muddy or salt spread
roads.
.Using a car-top carrier.
NOTE:
For vehicles operated in Canada, both
standard and severe maintenance items
should be performed at every interval.
OIL CONTROL SYSTEM (for
VR30DDTT engine models)
Your vehicle is equipped with oil control
system. It calculates engine oil and filter
change interval based on driving conditions.
Driving in severe conditions will shorten the
engine oil and filter change interval. When
the oil replacement indicator appears in the
vehicle information display, the engine oil
and filter need to be replaced.The following tables show the standard
maintenance schedule. Depending upon
weather and atmospheric conditions, vary-
ing road surfaces, individual driving habits
and vehicle usage, additional or more fre-
quent maintenance may be required.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the same
mileage/time intervals.

NOTE:
(1) After 40,000 miles (64,000 km) or 48
months, inspect every 10,000 miles
(16,000 km) or 12 months. Replace the
drive belts if found damaged.
(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions,
more frequent maintenance may be re-
quired.
(3) Periodic maintenance is not required.
(4) First replacement interval is 105,000
miles (168,000 km) or 84 months. Afterfirst replacement, replace every 75,000
miles (120,000 km) or 60 months.
(5) Use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent
with proper mixture ratio of 50% anti-
freeze and 50% demineralized or distilled
water. Mixing any other type of coolant or
the use of non-distilled water may reduce
the life expectancy of the factory fill cool-
ant.
(6) If the oil replacement indicator is
displayed, change the engine oil and filteras soon as possible. After replacing the
engine oil, reset the display.
(7) Replace spark plug when the plug gap
exceeds 0.043 in (1.1 mm) even if within
specified replacement mileage.
(8) Periodic maintenance is not required.
However, if valve noise increases, inspect
valve clearance.
