Message Possible causes/consequences and solutions
[Check Coolant Level See
Operators Manual]The coolant level is too low.CAUTIONAvoid making long journeys with too little coolant in the engine cooling system. The engine will otherwise be damaged.
Top up the coolant, observing the warning notes before doing so (see "If your vehicle overheats").
If the coolant needs topping up more often than usual. have the engine coolant system checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
The fan motor is faulty.
If the coolant temperature is below 250°F (120°C), you can continue driving to the nearest place you can have the system checked.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Avoid putting the engine under heavy load as you do so, e.g. driving in mountainous terrain and stop-start traffic.
[Coolant Too Hot Stop
Vehicle Turn Engine Off]The coolant is too hot.
A warning tone also sounds.CAUTIONIf the gauge indicates coolant temperature near the hot (H) end of the normal range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease tempera-
ture. If the gauge is over the normal range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible. If the engine is overheated, continued
operation of the vehicle may seriously damage the engine. For additional information, refer to "If your vehicle overheats" for
immediate action required.
1. Stop the vehicle immediately, paying attention to road and traffic conditions, and switch off the engine.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away
3. Wait until the engine has cooled down.
4. Make sure that the air supply to the engine radiator is not blocked, e.g. by frozen slush.
5. Do not start the engine again until the display message goes out and the coolant temperature is below 120°C. The engine may
otherwise be damaged.
6. Pay attention to the coolant temperature display.
7. If the temperature increases again, have the system checked immediately. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
Under normal operating conditions and with the specified coolant level, the coolant temperature may rise to 250°F (120°C).
