TIRE ROTATION
INFINITI recommends rotating the tires ev-
ery 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
For additional information on tire replacing
procedures, refer to "Flat tire" in the "6. In
case of emergency" section.As soon as pos-
sible, tighten the wheel nuts to the specified
torque with a torque wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque: 96 ft-lb (130
N·m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to
specifications at all times. It is recommended
that wheel nuts be tightened to specification
at each tire rotation interval.
WARNING
•After rotating the tires, check and ad-
just the tire pressure.
•Do not include the spare tire in the tire
rotation.
•For additional information regarding
tires, refer to "Important Tire Safety In-
formation" (US) or "Tire Safety Infor-
mation" in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
REPLACING WHEELS AND TIRES
WARNING
Do not install a deformed wheel or tire even
if it has been repaired. Such wheels or tires
could have structural damage and could
fail without warning.
When replacing a tire, use the same size,
speed rating and load carrying capacity as
originally equipped. (See "Wheels and Tires" in
the "9. Maintenance and Schedules" section
for recommended types and sizes of tires and
wheels.)
If the wheels are changed for any reason,
always replace with wheels which have the
same offset dimension. Wheels of a different
offset could cause early tire wear, possibly
degraded vehicle handling characteristics
and/or interference with the brake discs/
drums. Such interference can lead to de-
creased braking efficiency and/or early brake
pad/shoe wear.
Confirm the following for the TPMS:
WARNING
•The use of tires other than those recom-
mended or the mixed use of tires of dif-
ferent brands, construction (bias, bias-
belted or radial), or tread patterns can
adversely affect the ride, braking, han-
dling, VDC system, ground clearance,
body-to-tire clearance, tire chain clear-
ance, speedometer calibration, head-
light aim and bumper height. Some of
these effects may lead to accidents and
could result in serious personal injury.
•For 2WD models, if your vehicle was
originally equipped with 4 tires that
were the same size and you are only re-
placing 2 of the 4 tires, install the new
tires on the rear axle. Placing new tires
on the front axle may cause loss of ve-
hicle control in some driving conditions
and cause an accident and personal in-
jury.
•If the wheels are changed for any rea-
son, always replace with wheels which
have the same offset dimension. Wheels
of a different offset could cause prema-
ture tire wear, degrade vehicle handling
characteristics, affect the VDC system
and/or interference with the brake
discs. Such interference can lead to de-
creased braking efficiency and/or early
8-34Do-it-yourself

brake pad wear. For additional informa-
tion on wheel offset dimensions, refer to
"Wheels and Tires" in the "9. Mainte-
nance and Schedules" section.
•When a replacement tire is mounted or a
wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will flash for approximately 1
minute. The light will remain on after 1
minute. Contact an INFINITI retailer as
soon as possible for tire replacement
and/or system resetting.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
•The TPMS sensor may be damaged if it
is not handled correctly. Be careful when
handling the TPMS sensor.
•When replacing the TPMS sensor, the ID
registration may be required. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for ID registration.
•Do not use a valve stem cap that is not
specified by INFINITI. The valve stem
cap may become stuck.
•Be sure that the valve stem caps are cor-
rectly fitted. Otherwise the valve may be clogged up with dirt and cause a mal-
function or loss of pressure.
•Do not install a damaged or deformed
wheel or tire even if it has been repaired.
Such wheels or tires could have struc-
tural damage and could fail without
warning.
•The use of retread tires is not recom-
mended.
•For additional information regarding
tires, refer to "Important Tire Safety In-
formation" (US) or "Tire Safety Infor-
mation" (Canada) in the Warranty In-
formation Booklet.
Care of wheels
•Wash the wheels when washing the ve-
hicle to maintain their appearance.
•Clean the inner side of the wheels when
the wheel is changed or the underside of
the vehicle is washed.
•Do not use abrasive cleaners when wash-
ing the wheels.
•Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or
corrosion. Such damage may cause loss of
pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.
•INFINITI recommends waxing the road
wheels to protect against road salt in ar-
eas where it is used during winter.
WHEEL BALANCE
Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle han-
dling and tire life. Even with regular use,
wheels can get out of balance. Therefore,
they should be balanced as required.
Wheel balance service should be performed
with the wheels off the vehicle. Spin balanc-
ing the wheels on the vehicle could lead to
mechanical damage.
For additional information regarding tires,
refer to "Important Tire Safety Information"
(US) or "Tire Safety Information" (Canada)
in the Warranty Information Booklet.

primary latch is released. When driving in ar-
eas using road salt or other corrosive materi-
als, check lubrication frequently.
Lights*:
Clean the headlights on a regular basis. Make
sure that the headlights, stop lights, tail lights,
turn signal lights, and other lights are all op-
erating properly and installed securely. Also
check the aim of the headlights.
Road wheel nuts (lug nuts)*:
When checking the tires, make sure no wheel
nuts are missing, and check for any loose
wheel nuts. Tighten if necessary.
Tire rotation*:
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles
(8,000 km). Tires marked with directional
indicators can only be rotated between front
and rear. Make sure that the directional indi-
cators point in the direction of wheel rotation
after the tire rotation is completed.
Tires*:
Check the pressure with a gauge often and
always prior to long distance trips. Adjust the
pressure in all tires to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive
wear.Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
transmitter components:
Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal,
valve core and cap when the tires are re-
placed due to wear or age.
Wheel alignment and balance:
If the vehicle should pull to either side while
driving on a straight and level road, or if you
detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there
may be a need for wheel alignment.
If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at nor-
mal highway speeds, wheel balancing may be
needed.
For additional information regarding tires, re-
fer to “Important Tire Safety Information”
(US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in
the INFINITI Warranty Information Booklet.

Under the hood and vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
checked periodically (for example, each time
you check the engine oil or refuel).
Battery*:
Except for maintenance free battery, check
the fluid level in each cell. It should be be-
tween the “UPPER” and “LOWER” lines. Ve-
hicles operated in high temperatures or under
severe conditions require frequent checks of
the battery fluid level.
NOTE
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery discharge
and potential no-start conditions such as:
1. Installation or extended use of electronic
accessories that consume battery power
when the engine is not running (Phone
chargers, GPS, DVD players, etc.) 2. Vehicle is not driven regularly and/or
only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to be
charged to maintain battery health.
Brake fluid level*:
Make sure that the brake fluid level is be-
tween the “MAX” and “MIN” lines on the res-
ervoir.
Coolant level*:
Check the coolant level when the engine is
cold.
Engine drive belt(s)*:
Make sure that no belt is frayed, worn,
cracked or oily.
Engine oil level*:
Check the level after parking the vehicle on a
level spot and turning off the engine. Wait
more than 15 minutes for the oil to drain back
into the oil pan.
Exhaust system:
