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.
Engine Malfunction: Power Reduced
Service now
This warning appears when the engine is not
operating under normal conditions. If this
warning comes on, have the system checked.
It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
Engine Malfunction Service now
This warning appears when there is a prob-
lem with the engine. If this warning comes on,
have the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
Engine Stalled: Stop safely
This message appears 30 seconds before the
vehicle is shut down due to an above normal
operating exhaust temperature. The Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light (MIL) and malfunction
warning (red) will illuminate. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer immediately for this service.
Service CVT (AT) 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), engine power and, under some condi-
tions, vehicle speed will be decreased auto-
matically to reduce the chance of transmis-
sion 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 protection
mode operation occurs, vehicle speed may be
gradually reduced. The reduced speed may
be lower than other traffic, which could in-
crease the chance of a collision. Be especially
careful when driving. If necessary, pull to the
side of the road at a safe place and allow the
transmission to return to normal operation;
or have it repaired if necessary.
Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
indicator
This indicator appears when the BSW system
is engaged.
For additional information, see “Blind Spot
Warning (BSW)” (P. 5-45) and “Blind Spot
Intervention® (BSI)” (P. 5-53).
Cruise control indicator
This indicator shows the cruise control sys-
tem status.
When cruise control is activated, a green
circle will appear to indicate it is set. The
vehicle information display will also display
the speed the cruise control was set at. If you
accelerate past the set speed, the speed will
blink until you either cancel cruise control or
go back to the set speed. If cruise control is on
and canceled, the speed will be displayed to
show the speed the vehicle will return to if the
resume button is activated.
Currently not available
This message appears when the VDC system
is turned off. The following systems (if so
equipped) will be turned off automatically:
BSI system, LDP system and the ProPILOT
Assist system.

If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key, an automated toll road device or auto-
matic payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON posi-tion for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the de- vice (which may have caused the interfer-
ence) separate from the registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System key on a separate
key ring to avoid interference from other
devices. FCC Notice:
For USA:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this de-
vice must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause unde-
sired operation.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user's authority to oper-
ate the equipment.
For Canada:

ment Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Op-
eration is subject to the following two con-
ditions: (1) This device may not cause
interference. (2) This device must accept any
interference, including interference that

WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use the
climate controlled seats if you or the occu-
pants cannot monitor seat temperatures
or have an inability to feel pain in those
body parts in contact with the seat. Use of
the climate controlled seats by such people
could result in serious injury.
CAUTION
• The battery could run down if the climate
control seat is operated while the engine
is not running.
• Do not use the climate control seat for
extended periods or when no one is using
the seat.
• Do not put anything on the seat which
insulates heat, such as a blanket, cush-
ion, seat cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat
may become overheated.
• Do not place anything hard or heavy on
the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar
objects. This may result in damage to the
climate controlled seat.
• Any liquid spilled on the seat should be
removed immediately with a dry cloth.
• When cleaning the seat, never use gaso-
line, benzine, thinner, or any similar
materials.
• If any malfunctions are found or the cli-
mate controlled seat does not operate,
turn the switch off and have the system
checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. The climate controlled seat cools down the
front seat by blowing cool air from under the
surface of the seat. The climate control
switch is located on the center console.
The climate controlled seat can be operated
as follows:
1. Place the ignition switch in the ON
position.
2. Push the climate controlled seat switches to cool the seat. The indicator light on the
corresponding switch will illuminate.
3. Adjust the desired amount of air by push- ing the switch again. The climate con-
trolled seat blower remains on low speed
for approximately 60 seconds after push-
ing the switch on.
4. When the vehicle's interior is warmed or cooled, or before you leave the vehicle, be
sure to turn off the climate controlled
seats. To turn off the climate controlled
seats, push the switch until the indicator
light does not illuminate.
