•ALWAYS review this Owner's Manual
for important safety information.
As with other vehicles with features for
off-road use, failure to operate all-wheel
drive models correctly may result in loss of
control or an accident. Be sure to read
“Driving safety precautions” in the “Start-
ing and driving” section of this manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differ-
ently from an ordinary passenger car be-
cause it has a higher center of gravity for
off-road use. As with other vehicles with
features of this type, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of control
or an accident.
For additional information, refer to “On-
pavement and off-road driving precau-
tions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover” and
“Driving safety precautions” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
MODIFICATION OF YOUR
VEHICLE
This vehicle should not be modified. Modifi-
cation could affect its performance, safety
or durability and may even violate govern-
mental regulations. In addition, damage or
performance problems resulting from modi-
fications may not be covered under INFINITI
warranties.
WARNING
Installing an aftermarket On-Board Diag-
nostic (OBD) plug-in device that uses the
port during normal driving, for example re-
mote insurance company monitoring, re-
mote vehicle diagnostics, telematics or en-
gine reprogramming, may cause
interference or damage to vehicle systems.
We do not recommend or endorse the use
of any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices,
unless specifically approved by INFINITI.
The vehicle warranty may not cover dam-
age caused by any aftermarket plug-in
device.

WARNING
To avoid personal injury, keep your hands,
fingers and head away from the sunshade
arm, the arm rail and sunshade inlet port.
NOTE
The following notes cover situations where
strong sun shining on the roof of the vehicle
causes the area around the sunshade motor
to reach high temperatures:
•If the temperature of the sunshade motor
reaches a value between 185 °F (85 °C)
and 212 °F (100 °C), “restricted mode” is
enabled, and the sunshade will only be
allowed to CLOSE.
•If the temperature of the sunshade motor
exceeds 212 °F (100 °C), the sunshade will
not operate.

WARNING
•Radio waves could adversely affect elec-
tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
•The Intelligent Key transmits radio
waves when the buttons are pushed.
The FAA advises that the radio waves
may affect aircraft navigation and com-
munication systems. Do not operate the
Intelligent Key while on an airplane.
Make sure that the buttons are not op-
erated unintentionally when the unit is
stored for a flight. The Intelligent Key system can operate all the
door locks using the remote control function
or touching the request switch on the vehicle
without taking the key out from a pocket or
purse. The operating environment and/or
conditions may affect the Intelligent Key sys-
tem operation.
Be sure to read the following before using the
Intelligent Key system.
CAUTION
•Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when operating the vehicle.
•Never leave the Intelligent Key in the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
The Intelligent Key is always communicating
with the vehicle as it receives radio waves.
The Intelligent Key system transmits weak
radio waves. Environmental conditions may
interfere with the operation of the Intelligent
Key system under the following operating
conditions:
•When operating near a location where
strong radio waves are transmitted, such
as a TV tower, power station and broad-
casting station.
•When in possession of wireless equip-
ment, such as a cellular telephone, trans-
ceiver or a CB radio.
•When the Intelligent Key is in contact with
or covered by metallic materials.
•When any type of radio wave remote con-
trol is used nearby.
•When the Intelligent Key is placed near an
electric appliance such as a personal com-
puter.
•When the vehicle is parked near a parking
meter.
In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key function
or use the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the bat-
tery's life is approximately two years. If the
battery is discharged, replace it with a new
one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is low, an
indicator illuminates in the vehicle informa-
tion display. For additional information, refer
to "Safety systems" in the "2. Instruments and
controls" section.
