2021 INFINITI Q50 mileage

2-28Instruments and controls
on the lower display. See the INFINITI
InTouchTMOwner’s Manual.
The display is updated every 30 seconds. At
about the first 1/3 mile (500 m) after a
reset, the display shows “——”.
5. Navigation (if so equipped)
When the route guidance is set in the
navigation system, this item shows the
navigation route information.
For more details, see the INFINITI In-
Touch
TMOwner’s Manual.
6. Audio
The audio mode shows the status of audio
information.
For more details, see the INFINITI In-
Touch
TMOwner’s Manual.
7. Driving aids
The driving aids mode shows the operating
condition for the following systems (if so
equipped).
. Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
. Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)
. Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
. Blind Spot Intervention
®(BSI)
. Distance Control Assist (DCA)
. Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) .
Predictive Forward Collision Warning
(PFCW)
For more details, see “Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)/Lane Departure Prevention
(LDP)” (P.5-33), “Blind Spot Warning
(BSW)” (P.5-40), “Blind Spot Intervention
®
(BSI)” (P.5-48), “Distance Control Assist
(DCA)” (P.5-91), “Forward Emergency Brak-
ing (FEB)” (P.5-102) and “Predictive For-
ward Collision Warning (PFCW)” (P.5-109).
8. Tire pressure
The tire pressure mode shows the pressure
of all four tires while the vehicle is driven.
When the “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” or
“Flat Tire - Visit dealer” (if so equipped)
warning appears, the display can be
switched to the tire pressure mode by
pushing the
orswitch.
The tire pressure unit can be changed in the
[TPMS setting] under the [Settings] menu
on the lower display. (See the INFINITI
InTouch
TMOwner’s Manual.)
NOTE:
After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, it may take a period of time for the
tire pressure to be displayed while the
vehicle is driven. Depending on the radio
wave circumstance, tire pressure may not
correctly be displayed.
9. Chassis control
When Active Lane Control (if so equipped) or
the active trace control system is operated, it
shows the operating condition. See “Active
Lane Control” (P.5-25) and “Active trace
control” (P.5-129) for more details.
10. Oil control system
Engine oil information informs the distance
to oil change.
Distance to oil change:
The distance to oil change is displayed if the
distance to oil change comes to be less than
940 miles (1,500 km).
Oil replacement indicator:
When the set mileage approaches, the
engine oil replacement indicator will appear
on the display. After the oil is changed, reset
the oil control system by pushing the
orswitch for longer than 1 second.
The oil change interval cannot be adjusted
manually. The distance to oil change interval
is calculated depending on the driving con-
ditions and set automatically by the oil
control system.

.When the battery is discharged
To return the steering wheel to the normal
position, stop the vehicle in a safe location
and stop operating the steering wheel. Then
drive the vehicle for a short period of time.
Condition B
. When the steering wheel is operated
repeatedly or continuously while parking
or driving at a very low speed. In this
case, the power assist for the steering
wheel will be reduced.
To return the steering wheel to the normal
position, stop the vehicle in a safe location
and wait for a period of time, without
operating the steering wheel, until the
temperature of Direct Adaptive Steering
cools down. Avoid repeated steering wheel
operations that could cause Direct Adaptive
Steering to overheat.
When the vehicle is tested on the 2-wheel
dynamometer, the power steering warning
light may illuminate. To turn off the power
steering warning light, stop the vehicle in a
safe location, turn the engine off, restart the
engine, and then drive the vehicle for a
period of time.
The following conditions do not indicate a
malfunction of Direct Adaptive Steering.
. You may notice wider steering play when
the ignition switch is in the OFF or ACC
position compared to when it is in the ON position.
. After the engine is started, the steering
wheel may turn slightly even when
driving on a straight road. To return to
the normal position, drive the vehicle on
a straight road for a period of time.
. After the engine is started, the steering
wheel may move if the steering wheel
was turned to the fully locked position
while the ignition switch was in the OFF
position.
. After the vehicle is tested on the 4-wheel
dynamometer, the steering wheel may
turn slightly even when driving on a
straight road. To return the steering
wheel to the normal position, drive the
vehicle on a straight road for a period of
time.
You may hear a noise under the following
conditions. However, this is not a malfunc-
tion.
. When the engine is started or stopped.
. When the steering wheel is turned in the
full lock position.BRAKING PRECAUTIONS
The brake system has two separate hydrau-
lic circuits. If one circuit malfunctions, you
will still have braking at two wheels.
Vacuum assisted brakes
The brake booster aids braking by using
engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you can
stop the vehicle by depressing the brake
pedal. However, greater foot pressure on
the brake pedal will be required to stop the
vehicle and the stopping distance will be
longer.
Using the brakes
Avoid resting your foot on the brake pedal
while driving. This will cause overheating of
the brakes, wearing out the brake and pads
faster and reduce gas mileage.
To help save the brakes and to prevent the
brakes from overheating, reduce speed and
downshift to a lower gear before going
down a slope or long grade. Overheated
brakes may reduce braking performance and
could result in loss of vehicle control.
WARNING
. While driving on a slippery surface,
be careful when braking, accelerating

9-6Maintenance and schedules
Check for wear, deterioration and fluid
leaks. Replace any deteriorated or damaged
parts immediately.
Exhaust system:
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler
and hangers for leaks, cracks, deterioration,
and damage. Tighten connections or replace
parts as necessary.
In-cabin microfilter:
Replace at specified intervals. When driving
for prolonged periods in dusty conditions,
replace the filter more frequently.
Propeller shaft(s):
Check for damage, looseness, and grease
leakage. (4WD/AWD/RWD)
Steering gear and linkage, axle and suspen-
sion parts, drive shaft boots:
Check for damage, looseness, and leakage
of oil or grease. Under severe driving condi-
tions, inspect more frequently.
Tire rotation:
Rotate tires at the specified interval. When
rotating tires, check for damage and uneven
wear. Replace if necessary. If your vehicle is
equipped with different sized tires in the
front and rear, tires cannot be rotated.
Transmission fluid/oil, differential oil and
transfer case oil:
Visually inspect for signs of leakage atspecified intervals.
To help ensure smooth, 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 peo-
ple, 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 schedule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144
months, continue maintenance at the same
mileage/time intervals.
ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE
ITEMS FOR SEVERE OPERATING
CONDITIONS
Additional maintenance items for severe
operating conditions;
should be performed
on vehicles that are driven under especially
demanding conditions. Additional mainte-
nance items should be performed if you
primarily operate your vehicle under the
following conditions:
. Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles
(8 km).
. Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles
(16 km) with outside temperatures re-
maining below freezing.
