WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS

in an accident. Immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe location and it is
recommended you contact an INFINITI
retailer.
A chime sounds if a malfunction occurs in the
brake system power supply.
. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light
— Avoid driving at high speed and sud-
den braking, and see an INFINITI
retailer as soon as possible for an
inspection.
WARNING
.Your brake system may not be work-
ing properly if the brake warning
light (red) is on. Driving could be
dangerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest service
station for repairs. Otherwise, have
your vehicle towed because driving it
could be dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
hybrid system stopped and/or low
brake fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking will
require greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel. .
If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
Direct Response Hybrid®Sys-
tem warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Direct Response Hybrid®Sys-
tem (hybrid system) warning light illumi-
nates. After starting the hybrid system, the
hybrid system warning light turns off.
If the hybrid system warning light illuminates
while driving, it may indicate that there is a
malfunction in the electric motor and/or
other hybrid system components.
Stop your vehicle immediately and it is
recommended that you contact your
INFINITI retailer.
If the hybrid system warning light blinks
while driving, it may indicate that the Li-ion
battery charge is low and you cannot
continue to drive.
Do not allow the vehicle to coast when the
Li-ion battery is low or when the hybrid
system warning light blinks while driving.
The engine will not automatically start to charge the Li-ion battery while the vehicle is
coasting.
Distance Control Assist (DCA)
system warning light (orange; if so
equipped)
This light comes on if there is a malfunction
in the Distance Control Assist (DCA) system.
If the warning light illuminates, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Stop the hybrid
system, restart the hybrid system, resume
driving and turn on the DCA system again.
If it is not possible to turn on the system or
the warning light stays on, it may indicate
that the system is malfunctioning. Although
the vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, have the vehicle checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
Engine oil pressure warning
light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If
the light flickers or comes on during normal
driving, pull off the road in a safe area, stop
the engine immediately and it is recom-
mended that you call an INFINITI retailer or
other authorized repair shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is not
Instruments and controls2-13

2-14Instruments and controls
designed to indicate a low oil level. Use the
dipstick to check the oil level.(See “Engine
oil” (P.8-8).)
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Forward Emergency Braking
(FEB) system warning light (if so
equipped)
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is placed in the ON position. It turns off after
the hybrid system is started.
This light illuminates when the Forward
Emergency Braking (FEB) system is set to
OFF on the center display.
If the light illuminates when the FEB system
is ON, it may indicate that the system is
unavailable. See “Forward Emergency Brak-
ing (FEB)” (P.5-101) for more details.
This light will also illuminates if the Active
Trace Control is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, have the vehicle checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. (See “Vehicle Dynamic Con-
trol (VDC) system” (P.5-122).)
High temperature warning
light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the high temperature warning light
illuminates and then turns off. This indicates
that the high temperature sensor in the
engine coolant system is operational.
CAUTION
If the high temperature warning light
illuminates when the ignition switch is in
the ON position, it may indicate the
engine temperature is extremely high.
Stop the vehicle safety as soon as
possible.
If the vehicle is overheated, continuing
vehicle operation may seriously damage
the engine. (See “If your vehicle over-
heats” (P.6-12) for the immediate action
required.)
Hybrid EPS (Electrical Power
Steering) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Hybrid EPS (Electrical Power
Steering) warning light illuminates. After
starting the hybrid system, the Hybrid EPS
warning light turns off. This indicates that
the electrical power steering system is
operational.
If the Hybrid EPS warning light illuminates
while the hybrid system is running, it may
indicates the Hybrid EPS system is not
functioning properly and may need servicing.
Have the Hybrid EPS system checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
When the Hybrid EPS warning light illumi-
nates with the hybrid system running, the
power assist to the steering will cease
operation but you will still have control of
the vehicle. At this time, greater steering
efforts are required to operate the steering
wheel, especially in sharp turns and at low
speeds. However, if the steering wheel
operation is still performed, the Hybrid EPS
may stop and the Hybrid EPS warning light
will illuminate. Place the ignition switch in
the OFF position. For a while after it refrains
from the steering wheel control, the tem-
perature of the Hybrid EPS system will go

MAINTENANCE INDICATORS
1. Engine oil replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for changing the engine oil.
You can set or reset the distance for
changing the engine oil. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-28).)
2. Oil filter replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing the oil filter.
You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-28).)
3. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set distance comes for replacing tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
tires. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-28).)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. See “Changing
wheels and tires” (P.8-33). Many factors
including tire inflation, alignment, driv-
ing habits and road conditions affect tire
wear and when tires should be replaced.Setting the tire replacement indicator
for a certain driving distance does not
mean your tires will last that long. Use
the tire replacement indicator as a guide
only and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
4. “OTHER” indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing items other
than the engine oil, oil filter and tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
the items. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-28).)
More maintenance reminders are also avail-
able on the center display. (See the Infiniti
InTouch Owner’s Manual.)
