2018 INFINITI QX30 Owners Manual

The vehicle information display shows a ser-
vice message for a few seconds, for example:
•[Service A In .. days]
•[Service A Due]
•[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:
Note down the service due date displayed in
the vehicle information display before dis-
connecting the battery.
or
After reconnecting the battery, subtract the
battery disconnection periods from the ser-
vice date shown on the display.

Information about service
Resetting the maintenance service interval
display:
CAUTION
If the maintenance service interval display
has been inadvertently reset, this setting
can be corrected at an INFINITI retailer.
Have service work carried out as described
in the Maintenance Schedule. This may
otherwise lead to increased wear and dam-
age to the major assemblies or the vehicle.
An INFINITI retailer will reset the mainte-
nance service interval display after the service
work has been carried out. You can also ob-
tain further information on maintenance
work, for example.
Special service requirements:
The prescribed service interval is based on
normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
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
9-8Maintenance and Schedules

•For frequent operation in mountainous
terrain or on poor road surfaces
•If the engine is often left idling for long
periods
In these or similar operating conditions, have,
for example, the air filter, engine oil and oil
filter changed more frequently. The tires must
be checked more frequently if the vehicle is
operated under increased loads. Further in-
formation can be obtained at an INFINITI
retailer.
