2019 INFINITI QX30 oil filter

To ensure smooth, trouble-free, safe and
economical driving, INFINITI provides two
maintenance schedules that may be used,
depending upon the conditions in which you
usually drive. These schedules contain both
distance and time intervals, up to 120,000
miles (192,000 km)/144 months. For most
people, the odometer reading will indicate
when service is needed. However, if you drive
very little, your vehicle should be serviced at
the regular time intervals shown in the sched-
ule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the same
mileage/time intervals.
OIL CHANGE MONITOR
This vehicle is equipped with oil change moni-
tor. It calculates engine oil and filter change
interval base on driving conditions. When the
Engine Oil – Service Due Now warning ap-
pears in the vehicle information display, the
engine oil and filter need to be replaced.
MAINTENANCE SERVICE
MESSAGES
The maintenance service interval display in-
forms you of the next service due date.
NOTE
The maintenance service interval display
does not show any information on the engine
oil level.
The vehicle information display shows a ser-
vice message for a few seconds, for example:
•[Service A In .. days]
•[Service A Due]
•[Service A Exceeded by .. days]
Depending on the operating conditions of the
vehicle, the remaining time or distance until
the next service due date is displayed.
The letter indicates which service is due. A
stands for a minor service and B for a major
service. A number or another letter may be
displayed after the letter.
Only for certain countries: the position after
the letter A or B indicates any necessary ad-
ditional maintenance work. If you notify an
INFINITI retailer of this display, you will re-
ceive a statement on the associated costs.
The maintenance service interval display does
not take into account any periods of time dur-
ing which the battery is disconnected.
Maintaining the time-dependent service
schedule:
Note down the service due date displayed in
the vehicle information display before dis-
connecting the battery.
or
After reconnecting the battery, subtract the
battery disconnection periods from the ser-
vice date shown on the display.
Hiding service messages
Press the orbutton on the steer-
ing wheel.
Displaying service messages
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Press the
orbutton on the

Information about service
Resetting the maintenance service interval
display:
CAUTION
If the maintenance service interval display
has been inadvertently reset, this setting
can be corrected at an INFINITI retailer.
Have service work carried out as described
in the Maintenance Schedule. This may
otherwise lead to increased wear and dam-
age to the major assemblies or the vehicle.
An INFINITI retailer will reset the mainte-
nance service interval display after the service
work has been carried out. You can also ob-
tain further information on maintenance
work, for example.Special service requirements:
The prescribed service interval is based on
normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
vehicle is operated under arduous conditions
or increased loads, for example:
•Regular city driving with frequent interme-
diate stops
•If the vehicle is primarily used to travel
short distance
•For frequent operation in mountainous
terrain or on poor road surfaces
•If the engine is often left idling for long
periods
In these or similar operating conditions, have,
for example, the air filter, engine oil and oil
filter changed more frequently. The tires must
be checked more frequently if the vehicle is
operated under increased loads. Further in-
formation can be obtained at an INFINITI
retailer.
9-8Maintenance and Schedules

The following tables show the standard maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric conditions, varying road surfaces,
individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent maintenance may be required. After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the same mileage/time intervals.
