•The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to help
avoid damaging the vehicle.
• The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a level paved
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle in the upper
touch-screen display (upper display) when
the shift lever is shifted into the R (Reverse)
position. When activating the RearView
Monitor, the guide lines, the icons and the
messages may not be displayed immediately.
The radio can still be heard while the Rear-
View Monitor is active. To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-
tor system uses a camera located just above
the vehicle’s license plate
O1.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM

The vehicle is equipped with a shark fin an-
tenna and an antenna pattern is printed in-
side the rear window.
CAUTION
• Do not place metalized film near the rear
window glass or attach any metal parts to
it. This may cause poor reception or noise.
•When cleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow, be careful not to scratch or damage
the rear window antenna. Lightly wipe
along the antenna with a dampened soft
cloth. When installing a CB, ham radio or car phone
in your vehicle, be sure to observe the follow-
ing precautions; otherwise, the new equip-
ment may adversely affect the engine control
system and other electronic parts.
WARNING
• A cellular phone should not be used for
any purpose while driving so full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of
cellular phones while driving.
• If you must make a call while your vehicle
is in motion, the hands free cellular phone
operational mode is highly recom-
mended. Exercise extreme caution at all
times so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
• If you are unable to devote full attention
to vehicle operation while talking on the
phone, pull off the road to a safe location
and stop your vehicle.
CAUTION
• Keep the antenna as far away as possible
from the electronic control modules.
• Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic control
system harnesses. Do not route the an-
tenna wire next to any harness.
• Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio
as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
• For additional information,, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for servicing.

Additional information:
• When replacing a wheel without the TPMSsuch as the spare tire, the TPMS does not
monitor the tire pressure of the spare tire.
• The TPMS will activate only when the ve- hicle is driven at speeds above 16 mph (25
km/h). Also, this system may not detect a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a
flat tire while driving).
• The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the
vehicle must be driven at speeds above 16
mph (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and
turn off the low tire pressure warning light.
Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning appears in the vehicle information display
when the low tire pressure warning light is
illuminated and low tire pressure is de-
tected. The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning turns off when the low tire pres-
sure warning light turns off.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning appears each time the ignition switch is in
the ON position as long as the low tire
pressure warning light remains illuminated. • The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning
does not appear if the low tire pressure
warning light illuminates to indicate a
TPMS malfunction.
• Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation
and the outside temperature. Do not re-
duce the tire pressure after driving because
the tire pressure rises after driving. Low
outside temperature can lower the tem-
perature of the air inside the tire which can
cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This
may cause the low tire pressure warning
light to illuminate. If the warning light illu-
minates, check the tire pressure for all four
tires.
• The Tire and Loading Information label is located in the driver's door opening.
• You can also check the pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the vehicle infor-
mation display screen. The order of the tire
pressure figures displayed on the screen
corresponds with the actual order of the
tire position.
For additional information, see “Low tire
pressure warning light” (P. 2-13) and “Tire
Pressure Low — Add Air” (P. 2-24).WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect elec-
tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
• If the low tire pressure warning light illu-
minates while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage
the tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and
could result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label to
turn the low tire pressure warning light
off. If you have a flat tire, replace it with
a replacement tire as soon as possible.
(For additional information, see “Flat
tire” (P. 6-3) for changing a flat tire.)
5-6Starting and driving

•When replacing a wheel without the
TPMS such as the spare tire, when a
spare tire is mounted or a wheel is re-
placed, tire pressure will not be indi-
cated, the TPMS will not function and
the low tire pressure warning light will
flash for approximately 1 minute. The
light will remain on after 1 minute. Have
your tires replaced and/or TPMS system
reset as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
• Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
• Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire
sealant into the tires, as this may cause a
malfunction of the tire pressure sensors.
CAUTION
• The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with tire
chains or the wheels are buried in snow.
• Do not place metalized film or any metal
parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows.
This may cause poor reception of the sig-
nals from the tire pressure sensors, and
the TPMS will not function properly. Some devices and transmitters may tempo-
rarily interfere with the operation of the
TPMS and cause the low tire pressure warn-
ing light to illuminate.
Some examples are:
• Facilities or electric devices using similar
radio frequencies are near the vehicle.
• If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
• If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
The low tire pressure warning light may illu-
minate in the following cases:
• If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and tire without TPMS.
• If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID has not been registered.
• If the wheel is not originally specified by INFINITI.
