extra effort required.
If you are able to steer safely: Carefully
drive on to an INFINITI retailer.

RUN-FLAT TIRES
With special run-flat tires, you can continue
to drive your vehicle even if there is a total
loss of pressure in one or more tires. The
affected tire must not show any clearly visible
damage.
You can recognize run-flat tires by the mark-
ing which appears on the tire side wall. You
will find this marking next to the tire size
designation, the load-bearing capacity and
the speed index.
Run-flat tires may only be used in conjunction
with an activated tire pressure loss warning
system or tire pressure monitor.
Pressure loss warning message
If a pressure loss warning message appears
in the vehicle information display:
•Observe the instructions in the display
messages.
•Check the tire for damage.
•If driving on, observe the following notes.
The driving distance possible in run-flat mode
is approximately 50 miles (80 km) when the
vehicle is partially laden and approximately
20 miles (30 km) when the vehicle is fully
laden.NIC2686
6-4In case of emergency

Propeller shaft(s):
Check for damage, looseness, and grease
leakage. (4WD/AWD).
Steering gear and linkage, axle and suspen-
sion parts, drive shaft boots:
Check for damage, looseness, and leakage of
oil or grease. Under severe driving conditions,
inspect more frequently
Tire rotation:
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles
(8,000 km) according to the instructions un-
der "Tire rotation*" earlier in this section.
When rotating tires, check for damage and
uneven wear. Replace if necessary.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil,
transfer case oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage at speci-
fied intervals.To ensure smooth, trouble-free, safe and
economical driving, INFINITI provides two
maintenance schedules that may be used,
depending upon the conditions in which you
usually drive. These schedules contain both
distance and time intervals, up to 120,000
miles (192,000 km)/144 months. For most
people, the odometer reading will indicate
when service is needed. However, if you drive
very little, your vehicle should be serviced at
the regular time intervals shown in the sched-
ule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the same
mileage/time intervals.
ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE
ITEMS FOR SEVERE OPERATING
SYSTEMS
Additional maintenance items for severe op-
erating conditions; should be performed on
vehicles that are driven under especially de-
manding conditions. Additional maintenance
items should be performed if you primarily
operate your vehicle under the following con-
ditions:
•Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles in
normal temperatures or less than 10 miles
in freezing temperatures.
•Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or low
speed driving for long distances.
•Driving in dusty conditions or on rough,
muddy or salt-spread roads.
•Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-
top carrier.
OIL CHANGE MONITOR
This vehicle is equipped with oil change moni-
tor. It calculates engine oil and filter change
interval base on driving conditions. Driving in
severe conditions will shorten the engine oil
and filter change interval. When the Engine
Oil – Service Due Now warning appears in
the vehicle information display, the engine oil
and filter need to be replaced.
NOTE
For vehicles operated in Canada, both stan-
dard and severe maintenance items should
be performed at every interval.
MAINTENANCE SERVICE
MESSAGES
The maintenance service interval display in-
forms you of the next service due date.

The vehicle information display shows a ser-
vice message for a few seconds, for example:
•[Service A In .. days]

•[Service A Exceeded by .. days]
Depending on the operating conditions of the
vehicle, the remaining time or distance until
the next service due date is displayed.
The letter indicates which service is due. A
stands for a minor service and B for a major
service. A number or another letter may be
displayed after the letter.
Only for certain countries: the position after
the letter A or B indicates any necessary ad-
ditional maintenance work. If you notify an
INFINITI retailer of this display, you will re-
ceive a statement on the associated costs.
The maintenance service interval display
does not take into account any periods of
time during which the battery is discon-
nected. Maintaining the time-dependent service
schedule:

in the Maintenance Schedule. This may
otherwise lead to increased wear and dam-
age to the major assemblies or the vehicle.

nance service interval display after the service
work has been carried out. You can also ob-
tain further information on maintenance
work, for example.

vehicle is operated under arduous conditions
or increased loads, for example:
•Regular city driving with frequent interme-
diate stops
•If the vehicle is primarily used to travel
short distance
