The needle indicators may move slightly af-
ter the ignition switch is put in the “OFF”
position. This is not a malfunction.
CAUTION
•For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dampened
with water. Never use a rough cloth,
alcohol, thinner or any kind of solvent or
paper towel with a chemical cleaning
agent. They will scratch or cause discol-
oration to the lens.
•Do not spray any liquid such as water on
the meter lens. Spraying liquid may
cause the system to malfunction.
SPEEDOMETER AND
ODOMETER
This vehicle is equipped with a speedometer
and odometer. The speedometer is located
on the right side of the meter cluster. The
odometer is located below the vehicle infor-
mation display.

TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm).Do not rev the
engine in the red zone.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce engine
speed. Operating the engine in the red zone
may cause serious engine damage.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature. The engine coolant temperature is
within the normal range
1when the gauge
needle points within the zone shown in the
illustration. The engine coolant temperature
varies with the outside air temperature and
driving conditions.
CAUTION
If 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 op-
eration of the vehicle may seriously dam-
age the engine. For additional information,
refer to "If your vehicle overheats" for im-
mediate action required.

With all doors closed, apply the parking brake,
fasten the seat belts and place the ignition
switch in the ON position without starting the
engine. The following lights (if so equipped) will
come on, ,
,,,,
,,,,. These lights
should go out within a few seconds after start-
ing the engine. If any light fails to come on oroperates in a way other than described, it may
indicate a burned out bulb and/or a system
malfunction. Have the system checked. It is rec-
ommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
2-8Instruments and controls

If the seat belt warning light flashes, together
with an intermittent warning tone, this means
that the driver or passenger has not fastened
their seat belt, and the speed of the vehicle is
exceeding 15 MPH (25 km/h).
Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) air bag
warning light
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is
on, it could mean that the front air bag,
driver's knee air bag, side air bag, curtain
air bag and/or pretensioner systems will
not operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your ve-
hicle checked by an INFINITI retailer as
soon as possible.
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) air bag warning light illuminates to in-
dicate that the system is operational. The
light then tuns off within a few seconds after
the engine is started.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
front air bag, front seat-mounted side-
impact air bag, roof-mounted curtain air bag
and pretensioner systems need servicing:
•The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on for longer than a few seconds
once the engine is running.
•The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
•The supplemental air bag warning light
does not come on at all.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for these services. Unless checked and
repaired, the supplemental restraint system
(air bag system) and/or the pretensioner sys-
tems may not function properly. For addi-
tional information, refer to "Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS)".
Coolant warning light
WARNING
If the coolant warning light is lit, the engine
may not be being cooled sufficiently and
may be damaged.
Never drive with an overheated engine.
Driving when your engine is overheated can
cause some fluids which may have leaked
into the engine compartment to catch fire.
In addition, steam from an overheated en-
gine can cause serious burns, which can oc-
cur just by opening the hood.
There is a risk of injuryIf the red coolant warning light lights up while
the engine is running and the coolant tem-
perature gauge is at the start of the scale, the
temperature sensor for the coolant tempera-
ture gauge is faulty. The coolant temperature
is no longer being monitored. There is a risk of
engine damage if the coolant temperature is
too high.
Stop the vehicle immediately, paying atten-
tion to road and traffic conditions, and switch
off the engine. Do not continue driving under
any circumstances.
Consult an INFINITI retailer.
If the red coolant warning light comes on
while the engine is running, with or without
an accompanying warning tone, it could
mean that:
•The coolant level is too low.
•If the coolant level is correct, the airflow to
the engine radiator may be blocked or the
electric engine radiator fan may be mal-
functioning.
•The coolant is too hot and the engine is no
longer being cooled sufficiently.
Observe the additional display messages in
the vehicle information display.
