If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while the engine is running, it may indi-
cate the electric power steering is not func-
tioning properly and may need servicing. It is
recommended that you have the electric
power steering checked by an INFINITI re-
tailer.
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.
Rear Automatic Braking(RAB) warning light
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 RAB system is
turned off in the vehicle information display.
If the light illuminates when the RAB system
is on, it may indicate that the system is un-
available. For additional information, refer to
“Rear Automatic Braking (RAB)” in the “Start-
ing and driving” section of this manual.
Seat belt warning light andchime
The light and chime remind you to fasten your
seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the

unless the driver’s seat belt is securely fas-
tened.
The seat belt warning light may also illumi-
nate if the front passenger’s seat belt is not
fastened when the front passenger’s seat is
occupied. For 7 seconds after the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position, the sys-
tem does not activate the warning light for
the front passenger.
The 2nd row seats may be also equipped with
a seat belt warning light.
For additional information, refer to “Seat
belts” in the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section of this
manual.
Supplemental air bag
warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
or START position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates for about 7 seconds
and then turns off. This means the system is
operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag, and
pretensioner seat belt systems need servicing:
∙ The supplemental air bag warning light remains on after approximately 7 sec-
onds.
∙ The supplemental air bag warning light flashes intermittently.
∙ The supplemental air bag warning light does not come on at all.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for these services.
Unless checked and repaired, the supplemen-
tal restraint system (air bag system) and/or
the pretensioners may not function properly.

Engine hot Power reduced
This engine has a high fluid temperature pro-
tection mode. If the fluid temperature be-
comes too high (for example, climbing steep
grades in high temperatures with heavy
loads, such as when towing a trailer), engine
power and, under some conditions, vehicle
speed will be decreased automatically to re-
duce the chance of engine damage. Vehicle
speed can be controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the engine and vehicle speed may
be reduced.
WARNING
When the high fluid temperature protec-
tion mode operation occurs, vehicle speed
may be gradually reduced. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic,
which could increase the chance of a colli-
sion. Be especially careful when driving. If
necessary, pull to the side of the road at a
safe place and allow the engine to return to
normal operation; or have it repaired if
necessary.
CVT (AT) hot Power reduced
This transmission has a high fluid tempera-
ture protection mode. If the fluid temperature
becomes too high (for example, climbing
steep grades in high temperatures with heavy
loads, such as when towing a trailer), engine
power and, under some conditions, vehicle
speed will be decreased automatically to re-
duce the chance of transmission damage.
Vehicle speed can be controlled with the ac-
celerator pedal, but the engine and vehicle
speed may be reduced.
