.For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-
pened with water. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or any kind of solvent or paper towel with a
chemical cleaning agent. They will
scratch or cause discoloration to the

The speedometer indicates vehicle speed in
miles per hour (MPH) and kilometers per
hour (km/h).
WAC0217X
Odometer/twin trip odometer
Odometer/twin trip odometer
The odometer/twin trip odometeris
displayed on the vehicle information display
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
The odometer displays the total distance the
vehicle has been driven.
The twin trip odometer displays the distance
of individual trips. Changing the display:
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch
at the left
of the combination meter panel changes the
display as follows:
TRIP A ?TRIP B ?Odometer ?TRIP A
Resetting the trip odometer:
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch
for more
than 1 second to reset the trip odometer to
zero.
Average fuel economy and distance to
empty information is also available. (See
“Vehicle information display” (P.2-19).)

TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM).Do not rev
the engine into the red zone
.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce
engine speed. Operating the engine in
the red zone may cause serious engine
damage.
JVI1773X
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA-
TURE GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature.
The engine coolant temperature is within the
normal range when the gauge needle points
within the zone
shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies with
the outside air temperature and driving
conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If gauge is over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the engine.
See “If your vehicle overheats” (P.6-14)
for immediate action required.

WAC0218X
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down
hills.
The gauge needle returns to 0 (Empty) after
the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “0” (Empty).
The Low Fuel warning
appears on the
vehicle information display when the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the gauge reaches “0”. There will be a small reserve of
fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle
reaches “0”.
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
CAUTION
. If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL) may
come on. Refuel as soon as possible.
After a few driving trips, the
light should turn off. If the light
remains on after a few driving trips,
have the vehicle inspected. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
. For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P.2-
17).WAC0219X
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine lubrication
system oil pressure while the engine is
running. When the engine speed is high, the
engine oil pressure is also high. When it is
low, the gauge indicates the low (L) oil
pressure.
The engine oil pressure is normal when the
gauge points within the zone
shown in the
illustration.
CAUTION
. This gauge is not designed to indicate
low engine oil level. Use the dipstick
Instruments and controls2-9

2-10Instruments and controls
to check the oil level. (See “Engine oil”
(P.8-6).)
. If the gauge does not move with the
proper amount of engine oil, have the
vehicle checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. Continued vehicle operation
in such a condition could cause ser-
ious damage to the engine.
WAC0220X
VOLTMETER
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the volt meter indicates the
battery voltage. When the engine is running,
it indicates the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volt drop
below the normal range
. If the gauge is
not in the normal range (10.5 to 15.5 volt)
while the engine is running, it may indicate
that the charging system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.

ON position, the light comes on for 2
seconds. If the light comes on at any other
time, it may indicate the transmission is not
functioning properly. It is recommend you
visit an INFINITI retailer to check and repair
the transmission.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
oil temperature warning light
This light illuminates when the Automatic
Transmission (AT) oil temperature is too
high. If the light illuminates while driving,
reduce the vehicle speed as soon as safely
possible until the light turns off.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when the
AT oil temperature warning light is on
may damage the AT.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
