This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates and low tire pressure is detected. The
warning appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long
as the low tire pressure warning light
remains illuminated. If this warning appears,
stop the vehicle and adjust the pressure to
the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Information
label. (See “Low tire pressure warning light”
(P.2-14) and “Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).)
16. Flat Tire - Visit dealer warning
(if so equipped)
This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates and one or more flat tires are detected
while driving. A chime also sounds for
approximately 10 seconds. (See “Low tire
pressure warning light” (P.2-14) and “Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-
5).)
17. Low oil pressure warning (for
VR30DDTT engine models)
This warning appears if low engine oil
pressure is detected. If the warning appears
during normal driving, pull off the road in a
safe area, stop the engine immediately and
call an INFINITI retailer or other authorized
repair shop.
The low oil pressure warning is not designed
to indicate a low oil level. Use the dipstick to
check the oil level. (See “Engine oil” (P.8-
10).)
18. Low oil level warning (for 2.0L
turbo gasoline engine models)
This warning appears if low engine oil level is
detected. If this warning appears, check the
oil level using the dipstick. (See “Engine oil”
(P.8-10).)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly
using the engine oil dipstick. Operating
with an insufficient amount of oil can
damage the engine and such damage is
not covered by the warranty.

CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface andapply the parking brake.
2. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature.
3. Turn off the engine. Wait more than 15
minutes for the oil to drain back into the
oil pan.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Reinsert it all the way.
5. Remove the dipstick again and check the oil level. It should be within the range
.
If the oil level is below, remove the oil
filler cap and pour recommended oil
through the opening. Do not overfill
.
6. Recheck oil level with the dipstick.
It is normal to add some oil between oil
maintenance intervals or during the break-
in period, depending on the severity of
operating conditions.
CAUTION
Oil level should be checked regularly.
Operating the engine with an insuffi-
cient amount of oil can damage the
engine, and such damage is not covered
by warranty.

9. Refill engine with recommended oil and install the oil filler cap securely.
See “Capacities and recommended
fluids/lubricants” (P.10-2) for drain and
refill capacity. The drain and refill capa-
city depends on the oil temperature and
drain time. Use these specifications for
reference only. Always use the dipstick
to determine the proper amount of oil in
the engine. 10. Start the engine and check for leakage
around the drain plug and the oil filter.
Correct as required.
