WHEN READING THE MANUAL
If the light is still ON after this, the person
should be advised not to ride in the front
passenger seat and the vehicle should be
checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
2. If the light is OFF with a small adult, childor child restraint occupying the front pas-
senger seat.
This may be due to the following condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
• Small adult or child is not sitting upright, leaning against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with his/her feet com-
fortably extended to the floor.
• The child restraint is not properly installed, as outlined in “Child restraints” (P. 1-28).
• An object weighing over 9.1 lbs. (4 kg) hanging on the seat or placed in the seat-
back pocket.
• A child restraint or other object pressing against the rear of the seatback.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger seat.
• Forcing the front seat or seatback against an object on the seat or floor behind it. • An object placed under the front passenger
seat.
• An object placed between the seat cushion and center console.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a stop
when it is safe to do so. Check and correct
any of the above conditions. Restart the ve-
hicle and wait 1 minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed during
which the front passenger air bag status
light will remain lit for about 7 seconds
initially.
If the light is still OFF after this, the small
adult, child or child restraint should be repo-
sitioned in a rear seat and the vehicle should
be checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
3. If the light is OFF with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger
seat, the vehicle should be checked. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer as soon as possible.
Other supplemental front-impact air bag
precautions
WARNING
• Do not place any objects on the steering
wheel pad or on the instrument panel.
Also, do not place any objects between
any occupant and the steering wheel or
instrument panel. Such objects may be-
come dangerous projectiles and cause in-
jury if the front air bags inflate.
• Immediately after inflation, several
front air bag system components will be
hot. Do not touch them; you may se-
verely burn yourself.
• No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of the
supplemental air bag system. This is to
prevent accidental inflation of the
supplemental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
• Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle's electrical system, suspen-
sion system or front end structure. This
could affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-69
•Tampering with the front air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
Tampering includes changes to the
steering wheel and the instrument panel
assembly by placing material over the
steering wheel pad and above the instru-
ment panel or by installing additional
trim material around the air bag system.
• Removing or modifying the front pas-
senger seat may affect the function of
the air bag system and result in serious
personal injury.
• Modifying or tampering with the front
passenger seat may result in serious per-
sonal injury. For example, do not change
the front seats by placing material on the
seat cushion or by installing additional
trim material, such as seat covers, on the
seat that are not specifically designed to
assure proper air bag operation. Addi-
tionally, do not stow any objects under
the front passenger seat or the seat
cushion and seatback. Such objects may
interfere with the proper operation of
the occupant classification sensor
(weight sensor). •
No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of the
seat belt system. This may affect the
front air bag system. Tampering with the
seat belt system may result in serious
personal injury.
• It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the front air bags. It is also recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for in-
stallation of electrical equipment. The
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
wiring harnesses* should not be modified
or disconnected. Unauthorized electrical
test equipment and probing devices
should not be used on the air bag system.
• A cracked windshield should be replaced
immediately by a qualified repair facility.
A cracked windshield could affect the
function of the supplemental air bag
system.
*The SRS wiring harness connectors are yel-
low and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the front air bag
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner's Manual.

Maintenance
The maintenance menu allows the user to set reminders for various vehicle maintenance items.
Some menu items shown below may not be equipped on your vehicle.
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a substitute for regular tire checks, including tire pressure checks. For additional information, see
“Changing wheels and tires” (P. 8-39). Many factors including tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and road conditions affect tire wear
and when tires should be replaced. Setting the tire replacement indicator for a certain driving distance does not mean your tires will last that
long. Use the tire replacement indicator as a guide only and always perform regular tire checks. Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to a collision, which could result in
serious personal injury or death.
Menu item Explanation
Service Allows user to reset the current interval. This should only be done after completing oil change maintenance.
Air Filter Allows user to set a reminder at a specific interval or reset the current one.

warning appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long as
the low tire pressure warning light remains
illuminated. If this warning appears, stop the
vehicle and adjust the tire pressures of all four
tires to the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure shown on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion label. For additional information, see
“Low tire pressure warning light” (P. 2-18)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P. 5-5).

This warning may appear if there is a large
difference between the diameters of the
front and rear wheels. Pull off the road in a
safe area, with the engine idling. Check that
all the tire sizes, brand, construction and
tread patterns are the same, that the tire
pressure is correct and that the tires are not
excessively worn. If you have any problems,
please change tires or adjust to the correct
tire pressure. Do not select the SNOW mode
with the INFINITI Drive Mode Selector and
do not drive fast. For additional information,
