WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Instruments and controls2-9

For additional information, refer to “Vehicle
information display” in this section.
Engine oil pressure warninglight
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If
the light flickers or comes on 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 engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level. Use the
dipstick to check the oil level. For additional
information, refer to “Engine oil” in the “Do-
it-yourself” section of this manual.
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause seri-
ous damage to the engine almost immedi-
ately. Such damage is not covered by war-
ranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it is
safe to do so.
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.
Models with Direct Adaptive Steering®:
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the power steering warning light illuminates.
After starting the engine, the power steering
warning light stays on for a few seconds and
turns off. This indicates that Direct Adaptive
Steering is operational. Drive the vehicle after
the power steering warning light turns off.
If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while driving, pull off the road to a safe
location and stop the vehicle. If the power steering warning light turns off, you can drive
again. If the power steering warning light
continues to illuminate, have the Direct
Adaptive Steering checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service. For additional information, refer
to “Power Steering” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual.
Models with electric power steering:
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the power steering warning light illumi-
nates. After starting the engine, the power
steering warning light turns off. This indicates
the electric power steering is operational.
If the power steering warning light illuminates
while the engine is running, it may indicate the
electric power steering is not functioning prop-
erly and may need servicing. It is recommended
that you have the electric power steering
checked by an INFINITI retailer.
When the power steering warning light illu-
minates with the engine running, the power
assist to the steering will cease operation but
you will still have control of the vehicle. At this
time, greater steering efforts are 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.
