2018 INFINITI QX30 wheel

Other supplemental front-impact
air bag precautions
WARNING
•Do not place any objects on the steering
wheel pad or on the instrument panel.
Also, do not place any objects between
any occupant and the steering wheel or
instrument panel. Such objects may be-
come dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if the front air bags inflate.
•Immediately after inflation, several
front air bag system components will be
hot. Do not touch them; you may se-
verely burn yourself.
•No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the supplemental air bag system. This is
to prevent accidental inflation of the
supplemental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
•Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle's electrical system, suspen-
sion system or front end structure. This
could affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
•Tampering with the front air bag system
may result in serious personal injury. Tam-
pering includes changes to the steering
wheel and the instrument panel assembly
by placing material over the steering wheel
pad and above the instrument panel or by
installing additional trim material around
the air bag system.
•Removing or modifying the front pas-
senger seat may affect the function of
the air bag system and result in serious
personal injury.
•Modifying or tampering with the front
passenger seat may result in serious
personal injury. For example, do not
change the front seats by placing mate-
rial on the seat cushion or by installing
additional trim material, such as seat
covers, on the seat that are not specifi-
cally designed to assure proper air bag
operation. Additionally, do not stow any
objects under the front passenger seat
or the seat cushion and seatback. Such
objects may interfere with the proper
operation of the occupant classification
sensor (pressure sensor).
•No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of the seat belt system. This may affect the
front air bag system. Tampering with
the seat belt system may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
•It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
installation of electrical equipment. The
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
wiring harnesses* should not be modi-
fied or disconnected. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and probing
devices should not be used on the air bag
system.
•A cracked windshield should be replaced
immediately by a qualified repair facil-
ity. A cracked windshield could affect
the function of the supplemental air bag
system.
* The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the front air bag
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner's Manual.

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.
2-10Instruments and controls

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" in the "6. In case of emer-
gency" section).
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 " in
the "2. Instruments and controls" section and
"Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system" in
the "5. Starting and driving" section.
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)" in the "5.
Starting and driving" section for more details.
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.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for these ser-
vices.
