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
