2018 INFINITI QX30 hood open

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.

Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) air bag
warning light
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is
on, it could mean that the front air bag,
driver's knee air bag, side air bag, curtain
air bag and/or pretensioner systems will
not operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your ve-
hicle checked by an INFINITI retailer as
soon as possible.
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) air bag warning light illuminates to in-
dicate that the system is operational. The
light then tuns off within a few seconds after
the engine is started.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
front air bag, front seat-mounted side-
impact air bag, roof-mounted curtain air bag
and pretensioner systems need servicing:
•The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on for longer than a few seconds
once the engine is running.
•The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
•The supplemental air bag warning light
does not come on at all.
It is recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for these services. Unless checked and
repaired, the supplemental restraint system
(air bag system) and/or the pretensioner sys-
tems may not function properly. For addi-
tional information, refer to "Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS)" in the "1. Safety —
seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system" section.
Coolant warning light
WARNING
If the coolant warning light is lit, the engine
may not be being cooled sufficiently and
may be damaged.
Never drive with an overheated engine.
Driving when your engine is overheated
can cause some fluids which may have
leaked into the engine compartment to
catch fire.
In addition, steam from an overheated en-
gine can cause serious burns, which can oc-
cur just by opening the hood.
There is a risk of injury
If the red coolant warning light lights up while
the engine is running and the coolant tem-
perature gauge is at the start of the scale, the temperature sensor for the coolant tempera-
ture gauge is faulty. The coolant temperature
is no longer being monitored. There is a risk of
engine damage if the coolant temperature is
too high.
Stop the vehicle immediately, paying atten-
tion to road and traffic conditions, and switch
off the engine. Do not continue driving under
any circumstances.
Consult an INFINITI retailer.
If the red coolant warning light comes on
while the engine is running, with or without
an accompanying warning tone, it could
mean that:•The coolant level is too low.
•If the coolant level is correct, the airflow to
the engine radiator may be blocked or the
electric engine radiator fan may be mal-
functioning.
•The coolant is too hot and the engine is no
longer being cooled sufficiently.
Observe the additional display messages in
the vehicle information display.
Stop the vehicle immediately, paying atten-
tion to road and traffic conditions, and switch
off the engine.

If you live in Canada
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is not recognized during
programing. Comparable with Canadian law,
some U.S. garage door openers also feature a
"break".
Proceed as follows:
•If you live in Canada
•If you have difficulties programing the ga-
rage door opener (regardless of where you
live) when using the programing steps.
1. Press and hold one of buttons
2to4on
the HomeLink®. After a short time, indi-
cator light
1lights up yellow.
2. Release the button. Indicator light
1flashes yellow.
3. Press button
6of the hand held trans-
mitter
5for two seconds, then release it
for two seconds.
4. Press button
6again for two seconds.
5. Repeat this sequence on button
6of the
hand held transmitter
5until indicator
light
1lights up green. When indicator light
1lights up green:
programing is finished.
When indicator light
1flashes green:
programing was successful. The next step
is to synchronize the rolling code.
6. Release button
6of the hand held trans-
mitter
5for the garage door drive.
If indicator light
1lights up red: repeat
the programing process for the corre-
sponding button on the rear-view mirror.
When doing so, vary the distance be-
tween the hand held transmitter
5and
the rear-view mirror.
The required distance between the hand
held transmitter
5and the HomeLink®
depends on the garage door drive system.
Several attempts might be necessary. You
should test every position for at least 25
seconds before trying another position.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE
DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
•Check the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive hand-held transmitter
5and whether it is supported. The trans-
mitter frequency can usually be found on
the back of the garage door drive hand- held transmitter. HomeLink® is compat-
ible with devices that have units which
operate in the frequency range of 280 to
433 MHz.
•Replace the hand-held transmitter5bat-
teries with new batteries.
This increases the likelihood that the hand-
held transmitter
5will transmit a strong
and precise signal to the HomeLink®.
•When programing, hold the hand-held
transmitter
5at varying distances and
angles from the button which you are pro-
graming. Try various angles at a distance
between 2 and 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) or at
the same angle but at varying distances.
•If another hand-held transmitter is avail-
able for the same garage door drive, re-
peat the same programing steps with this
hand-held transmitter
5. Before per-
forming these steps, make sure that new
batteries have been installed in the hand-
held transmitter
5.
•Note that some hand-held transmitters
only transmit for a limited amount of time
(the indicator light on the hand-held trans-
mitter goes out). Press button
6on re-
mote hand-held transmitter
5again be-
fore transmission ends.
