•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.

•The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects: – Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth,
cotton, grass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or
chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
•If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system vol-
ume or an open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the tone and it may not be heard.
PROBLEMS WITH SONAR FUNCTION
Problem Possible causes/consequences and solutions
Only the red segments in the sonar function displays
are lit. You also hear a warning tone for approximately
two seconds.
The sonar function is then deactivated and the
indicator light on the sonar function OFF switch lights
up. The sonar function has malfunctioned and has been deactivated.
If problems persist, have the sonar function checked. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
Only the red segments in the sonar function displays
are lit. The sonar function is then deactivated. The sonar sensors are dirty or there is interference.
•Clean the sensors.•Switch the ignition back on.
The problem may be caused by an external source of radio or ultrasound waves.
See if the sonar system functions in a different location.

function and the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will flash for approximately 1
minute. The light will remain on after 1
minute. It is recommended you Contact
an INFINITI retailer as soon as possible
for tire replacement and/or system re-
setting.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
•If you used Emergency Tire Sealant to
repair a minor tire puncture, the TPMS
sensor should be checked when repair-
ing or replacing the tire. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When the
low tire pressure warning light is lit, and a tire
pressure-related warning (if equipped) ap-
pears in the vehicle information display, one
or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. If the vehicle is being driven with low
tire pressure, the TPMS will activate and
warn you of it by the low tire pressure warn-
ing light (in the meter panel). This system will
activate only when the vehicle is driven at
speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). For more details about the TPMS, see "Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)" in the
"5. Starting and driving" section.
STOPPING VEHICLE

TIRE WEAR AND DAMAGE
WARNING
•Tires should be periodically inspected
for wear, cracking, bulging or objects
caught in the tread. If excessive wear,
cracks, bulging or deep cuts are found,
the tire should be replaced immediately.
•The original tires have a built-in tread
wear indicator. When the wear indicator
is visible, the tire should be replaced.
•Tires degrade with age and use. Have
tires, including the spare, over 6 years
old checked by a qualified technician be-
cause some tire damage may not be ob- vious. Replace the tires as necessary to
prevent tire failure and possible per-
sonal injury.
•Improper service of the spare tire may
result in serious personal injury. If it is
necessary to repair the spare tire, it is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
