2018 INFINITI QX30 Owner's Manual

Stop the vehicle immediately, paying atten-
tion to road and traffic conditions, and switch
off the engine.
Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
Leave the vehicle and keep a safe distance
from the vehicle until the engine has cooled
down.
Check the coolant level and top up the cool-
ant, observing the warning notes (see "If your
vehicle overheats").
If you have to top up the coolant frequently,
have the engine cooling system checked.
Make sure that the air supply to the engine
radiator is not blocked, e. g. by frozen slush.
Do not start the engine again until the cool-
ant temperature is below 250°F (120°C). The
engine may otherwise be damaged.
Low fuel warning light
This light comes on when the fuel level in the
fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel gauge
reaches 0 (Empty).There will be a small re-
serve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge
reaches 0 (Empty).
Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light
The VDC warning light blinks when the Ve-
hicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system is oper-
ating, thus alerting the driver to the fact that
the road surface is slippery and the vehicle is
nearing its traction limits.
You may feel or hear the system working, this
is normal.
The light will continue to blink for a few sec-
onds after the VDC system stops limiting
wheel spin.
Cruise control or Intelligent Cruise Control is
deactivated.
For additional information see " Vehicle Dy-
namic Control (VDC) OFF indicator light " and
"Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system".
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The appropriate light flashes when the turn
signal switch is activated. Both lights flash
when the hazard switch is turned on.
Low beam indicator light
This light comes on when the switch is turned
to the position:
The headlights will come
on and front side, tail, number plate and in-
strument lights remain on.
Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) OFF indicator light
The light comes on when the Vehicle Dy-
namic Control (VDC) has been disabled. This
indicates that the VDC system is not operat-
ing.
Disabling the VDC system causes the For-
ward Emergency Braking system to become
unavailable. See " Forward emergency brak-
ing (FEB) system (if equipped)" for more de-
tails.
This light also comes on briefly when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON position.
The light will turn off after approximately
1 second if the VDC system is operational.
When the VDC OFF indicator light and VDC
warning light (see " Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light" later in this section)
come on with the VDC system turned on, it
alerts the driver to the fact that the system's
fail-safe mode is operating. This means that
the system may not be functioning properly.
Instruments and controls2-13

Have the system checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for these services.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the
VDC system function will be canceled, but
the vehicle is still driveable. For additional
information, see "Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system".
WARNING
VDC should remain on unless freeing a ve-
hicle from mud or snow.
While the VDC system is operating, you
might feel a slight vibration or hear the sys-
tem working when starting the vehicle or ac-
celerating, but this is normal.

equipped)" later in this section).

switch is in the AUTO position with the high
beam selected. This indicates that the high
beam assist system is operational. (See 2-65.)
