operates normally, but without anti-lock as-
sistance (see "Brake system" in the "5. Start-
ing and driving" section).
BRAKE warning light (red)
WARNING
•Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on. Driv-
ing 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 when the igni-
tion switch is not in the ON position
and/or when the brake fluid level is low
may increase the stopping distance and
braking will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
•If the brake fluid level is below the mini-
mum or MIN mark on the brake fluid res-
ervoir, do not drive until the brake sys-
tem has been checked. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light remains illuminated and
turns off when the engine is started. If the light illuminates at any other time, it may
indicate that the brake system is not func-
tioning properly. If the BRAKE warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle immediately and
contact an INFINITI retailer.
This light functions for both the parking brake
and the foot brake systems.
Low tire pressure warning
light (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the
tire pressure of all its tires.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of
low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS
is not functioning properly.
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the Low tire pressure warming light illu-
minates to indicate that the system is opera-
tional. The light then tuns off within a few
seconds after the engine is started.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate. A
tire pressure warning message also appears
in the vehicle information display.
When the low tire pressure warning light il-
luminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all 4 tires to the recom- mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label located in
the driver's door opening, see "Tire and load-
ing information label" in the "9. Mainte-
nance and Schedules" section. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automati-
cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad-
justed. After the tire is inflated to the recom-
mended pressure, the vehicle must be driven
at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to acti-
vate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure
gauge to check the tire pressure.
The low tire pressure warning message ap-
pears each time the ignition switch is placed
in the ON position as long as the low tire
pressure warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see "Vehicle in-
formation display" later in this section and
"Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)" in
the "5. Starting and driving" section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The light
will remain on after 1 minute. Have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. The low
tire pressure warning does not appear if the
Instruments and controls2-9
low tire pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see "Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)" in the "5. Start-
ing and driving" section.
WARNING
•Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those who
use a pacemaker should contact the
electric medical equipment manufac-
turer for the possible influences before
use.
•If the light does not illuminate with the
ignition switch pushed ON, have the ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
•If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure. Seri-
ous vehicle damage could occur and may
lead to an accident and could result in
serious personal injury or death. Check
the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the tire
placard, located in the driver's door
opening, to turn the low tire pressure
warning light off. If the light still illumi-
nates while driving after adjusting the
tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a replace-
ment tire as soon as possible.
•If a replacement tire is mounted or a
wheel is replaced without a TPMS sen-
sor tire pressure will not be indicated,
the TPMS will not function and the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute. The light will
remain on after 1 minute. Have your ve-
hicle's tires replaced and/or TPMS sys-
tem reset as soon as possible. It is rec-
ommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for these services.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
•The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
•If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
•Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to all four wheels correctly.
Malfunction Indicator light
(MIL) (yellow)
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the yellow Malfunction Indicator
light illuminates. This means that the system
is operational.
If the yellow engine malfunction indicator
light lights up while the engine is running,
there may be a fault, for example:
•In the engine management
•In the fuel injection system
•In the exhaust system
•In the ignition system (for vehicles with
gasoline engines)
•In the fuel system
•In other monitored items, for example the
automatic transmission.

•Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry grass,
wastepaper or rags. They may ignite
and cause a fire.
CAUTION
•Do not use leaded gasoline. (See "Rec-
ommended fluids/lubricants and ca-
pacities" in the "9. Maintenance and
Schedules" section.) Deposits from
leaded gasoline seriously reduce the
ability of the three-way catalyst to help
reduce exhaust pollutants and/or dam-
age the three-way catalyst.
•Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc-
tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or
electrical systems may cause overrich
fuel to flow into the three-way catalyst,
causing it to overheat. Do not keep driv-
ing if the engine misfires, or if noticeable
loss of performance or other unusual op-
erating conditions are detected. Have
the vehicle inspected promptly. It is rec-
ommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
•Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel
level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire, damaging the three-
way catalyst.
•Do not race the engine while warming it
up.
•Do not push or tow your vehicle to start
the engine.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if present),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure
for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a tire pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated. Accord-
ingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illu-
minates, you should stop and check your tires
as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driv-
er’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This se-
quence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illumi-
nated, the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of replace-
ment or alternate tires or wheels on the ve-
hicle that prevent the TPMS from working
properly. Always check the TPMS telltale af-
ter replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the replacement
or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
