ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER
RECOMMENDATIONS
Selecting the correct oil
It is essential to choose the correct grade,
quality and viscosity engine oil to ensure sat-
isfactory engine life and performance. For
additional information, refer to "Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities" in
this section. INFINITI recommends the use of
an energy conserving oil in order to improve
fuel economy.Select only engine oils that meet the Ameri-
can Petroleum Institute (API) certification or
International Lubricant Standardization and
Approval Committee (ILSAC) certification
and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have
the API certification mark on the front of the
container. Oils which do not have the speci-
fied quality label should not be used as they
could cause engine damage.
Oil additives
INFINITI does not recommend the use of oil
additives. The use of an oil additive is not
necessary when the proper oil type is used
and maintenance intervals are followed.Oil which may contain foreign matter or has
been previously used should not be used.
Oil viscosity
The engine oil viscosity or thickness changes
with temperature. Because of this, it is impor-
tant to select the engine oil viscosity based on
the temperatures at which the vehicle will be
operated before the next oil change. Choos-
ing an oil viscosity other than that recom-
mended could cause serious engine damage.
Selecting the correct oil filter
Your new INFINITI vehicle is equipped with a
high-quality Genuine NISSAN oil filter. When
replacing, use a Genuine NISSAN oil filter or
its equivalent for the reason described in
“Change intervals”.
Change intervals
The oil and oil filter change intervals for your
engine are based on the use of the specified
quality oils and filters. Using engine oil and
filters that are not of the specified quality, or
exceeding recommended oil and filter change
intervals could reduce engine life. Damage to
the engine caused by improper maintenance
or use of incorrect oil and filter quality and/or
viscosity is not covered by the INFINITI New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
LTI2051
10-6Technical and consumer information

Your engine was filled with a high-quality
engine oil when it was built. You do not have
to change the oil before the first recom-
mended change interval. Oil and filter change
intervals depend upon how you use your ve-
hicle.
Operation under the following conditions
may require more frequent oil and filter
changes:∙ repeated short distance driving at cold outside temperatures
∙ driving in dusty conditions
∙ extensive idling
∙ towing a trailer
∙ stop and go commuting
For additional information on maintenance
schedules, refer to the “Maintenance and
schedules” section of this manual.AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND OIL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioner system in your INFINITI
vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFC-134a (R-134a) and the oil, Genuine
NISSAN A/C System Oil Type PAG or the
exact equivalents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil will
cause severe damage to the air condition-
ing system and will require the replacement
of all air conditioner system components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
INFINITI vehicle does not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain
government regulations require the recovery
and recycling of any refrigerant during auto-
motive air conditioner system service. An
INFINITI retailer has the trained technicians
and equipment needed to recover and recycle
your air conditioner system refrigerant.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer when servicing your air conditioner
system.
Technical and consumer information10-7

To drive away:1. Start the vehicle.
2. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
3. Shift the transmission into gear.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. Drive slowly until the vehicle and trailer are clear from the blocks.
6. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
7. Have someone retrieve and store the blocks.
∙ While going downhill, the weight of the trailer pushing on the tow vehicle may
decrease overall stability. Therefore, to
maintain adequate control, reduce your
speed and shift to a lower gear. Avoid
long or repeated use of the brakes when
descending a hill, as this reduces their
effectiveness and could cause overheat-
ing. Shifting to a lower gear instead pro-
vides “engine braking” and reduces the
need to brake as frequently.
∙ If the engine coolant temperature rises to a high temperature, refer to “If your ve-
hicle overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual. ∙ Trailer towing requires more fuel than
normal circumstances.
∙ Avoid towing a trailer for your vehicle’s first 500 miles (805 km).
∙ For the first 500 miles (805 km) that you do tow, do not drive over 50 mph
(80 km/h).
∙ Have your vehicle serviced more often than at intervals specified in the recom-
mended maintenance schedule in the
“Maintenance and schedules” section of
this manual.
∙ When making a turn, your trailer wheels will be closer to the inside of the turn than
your vehicle wheels. To compensate for
this, make a larger than normal turning
radius during the turn.
∙ Crosswinds and rough roads will ad- versely affect vehicle/trailer handling,
possibly causing vehicle sway. When be-
ing passed by larger vehicles, be prepared
for possible changes in crosswinds that
could affect vehicle handling.
Do the following if the trailer begins to sway: 1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal to allow the vehicle to coast and steer as straight ahead as the road conditions
allow. This combination will help stabilize
the vehicle
– Do not correct trailer sway by steering or applying the brakes.
2. When the trailer sway stops, gently ap- ply the brakes and pull to the side of the
road in a safe area.
3. Try to rearrange the trailer load so it is balanced as described in this section.
∙ Be careful when passing other vehicles. Passing while towing a trailer requires
considerably more distance than normal
passing. Remember, the length of the
trailer must also pass the other vehicle
before you can safely change lanes.
∙ Downshift the transmission to a lower gear for engine braking when driving
down steep or long hills. This will help
slow the vehicle without applying the
brakes.
∙ Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause
the brakes to overheat, resulting in re-
duced braking efficiency.

WARNING
A vehicle equipped with All-Wheel Drive
(AWD) should never be tested using a two
wheel dynamometer (such as the dyna-
mometers used by some states for emis-
sions testing), or similar equipment. Make
sure you inform the test facility personnel
that your vehicle is equipped with AWD be-
fore it is placed on a dynamometer. Using
the wrong test equipment may result in
transmission damage or unexpected vehicle
movement which could result in serious ve-
hicle damage or personal injury.
Due to legal requirements in some states and
Canadian Provinces, your vehicle may be re-
quired to be in what is called the “ready con-
dition” for an Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
test of the emission control system.
The vehicle is set to the “ready condition”
when it is driven through certain driving pat-
terns. Usually, the ready condition can be
obtained by ordinary usage of the vehicle. If a powertrain system component is repaired
or the battery is disconnected, the vehicle
may be reset to a “not ready” condition. Be-
fore taking the I/M test, check the vehicle’s
inspection/maintenance test readiness con-
dition. Place the ignition switch in the ON
position without starting the engine. If the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) comes on
steady for 20 seconds and then blinks for
10 seconds , the I/M test condition is “not
ready”. If the MIL does not blink after 20 sec-
onds, the I/M test condition is “ready”. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer to set the “ready condition” or to pre-
pare the vehicle for testing.
This vehicle is equipped with an EDR. The
main purpose of an EDR is to record, in cer-
tain collision or near collision-like situations,
such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in under-
standing how a vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data related to
vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a
short period of time, typically 30 seconds or
less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
∙ How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
∙ Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
∙ How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;
and,
∙ How fast the vehicle was traveling.
∙ Sounds are not recorded.
These data can help provide a better under-
standing of the circumstances in which colli-
sions and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are
recorded by your vehicle only if a nontrivial
collision situation occurs; no data are re-
corded by the EDR under normal driving con-
ditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gen-
der, age and collision location) are recorded.
