If any light fails to come on or operate in a
way other than described, it may indicate a
burned-out bulb and/or a system malfunc-
tion. Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
Some indicators and warnings are also dis-
played in the vehicle information display be-
tween the speedometer and tachometer. For
additional information, refer to “Vehicle in-
formation display” in this section.
WARNING LIGHTS
For additional information, refer to “Vehicle
information display” in this section.
Anti-lock Braking System(ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the ABS warning light illuminates and
then turns off. This indicates the ABS is op-
erational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock as-
sistance. For additional information, refer to
“Brake system” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
Brake warning light
This light functions for both the parking brake
and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light comes on when the parking
brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid
level. If the light comes on while the engine is
running with the parking brake not applied,
stop the vehicle and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as necessary. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Brake fluid” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion of this manual. 2. If the brake fluid level is correct, it is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer.
WARNING
∙ Your brake system may not be workingproperly if the warning light is on. Driving
could be dangerous. If you judge it to be
safe, drive carefully to the nearest ser-
vice station for repairs. Otherwise, have
your vehicle towed because driving it
could be dangerous.
∙ Pressing the brake pedal with the engine stopped and/or a low brake fluid level
may increase your stopping distance and
braking will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
∙ If the brake fluid level is below the MINI- MUM or MIN mark on the brake fluid
reservoir, do not drive until the brake
system has been checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
Instruments and controls2-9

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
warning indicator
When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake
warning light and the Anti-lock Braking Sys-
tem (ABS) warning light illuminate, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the brake system checked, and if nec-
essary, repaired. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Avoid high-speed driving and abrupt braking.
For additional information, refer to “Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light” in this
section.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is run-
ning, it may indicate the charging system is
not functioning properly. Turn the engine off
and check the generator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken, missing, or if the light remains
on, have the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the generator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Forward EmergencyBraking (FEB) with
Pedestrian Detection
system warning light
(if so equipped)
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is placed in the ON position. It turns off after
the engine is started.
This light illuminates when the FEB with Pe-
destrian Detection system is set to OFF in the
vehicle information display.
If the light illuminates when the FEB with
Pedestrian Detection system is on, it may
indicate that the system is unavailable. For
additional information, refer to “Forward
Emergency Braking (FEB) with Pedestrian
Detection” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
Low tire pressure warninglight (if so equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the
tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of
low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS
is not functioning properly. After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, this light illuminates for about 1 sec-
ond and turns off.
Low tire pressure warning
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate. A
“Tyre Pressure Low - Add Air” warning also
appears in the vehicle information display.
When the low tire pressure warning light il-
luminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all four tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
tire placard located in the driver’s door
opening. The low tire pressure warning light
does not automatically turn off when the
tire pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the ve-
hicle must be driven at speeds above
25 km/h (16 mph) to activate the TPMS and
turn off the low tire pressure warning light.
Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
The “Tyre Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low
tire pressure warning light remains illumi-
nated.
2-10Instruments and controls

∙ Be sure to install the specified size of tiresto the four wheels correctly.
Master warning light

∙ Check tire pressure warning (if so equipped)
Power steering
warning light
WARNING
∙ If the engine is not running or is turned off while driving, the power assist for the
steering will not work. Steering will be
harder to operate. ∙ When the power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running,
there will be no power assist for the
steering. You will still have control of the
vehicle but the steering will be harder to
operate. Have the power steering system
checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the power steering warning light
illuminates. After starting the engine, the
power steering warning light turns off. This
indicates that the electric power steering sys-
tem is operational.
If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while the engine is running, it may indi-
cate the power steering system is not func-
tioning properly and may need servicing.
Have the hydraulic pump electric power
steering system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
When the power steering warning light illu-
minates with the engine running, there will be
no power assist for the steering but you will
still have control of the vehicle. At this time,
greater steering effort is required to operate
the steering wheel, especially in sharp turns
and at low speeds. For additional information, refer to “Power
steering” in the “Starting and driving” section
of this manual.
Seat belt warning light
and chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten your
seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position
and remains illuminated until the driver’s seat
belt is fastened. At the same time, the chime
sounds for about 6 seconds unless the driv-
er’s seat belt is securely fastened.
For additional information, refer to “Seat
belts” in the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section of the
manual.

starting, depress the accelerator pedal
a little (approximately 1/3 to the floor)
and while holding, crank the engine.
Release the accelerator pedal when
the engine starts.
∙ If the engine is very hard to start be- cause it is flooded, depress the accel-
erator pedal all the way to the floor
and hold it. Push the ignition switch to
the ON position to start cranking the

moderate speed for a short distance
first, especially in cold weather. In cold
weather, keep the engine running for a
minimum of2-3minutes before shut-
ting it off. Starting and stopping the en-
gine over a short period of time may
make the vehicle more difficult to start.
