NOTE
The needle indicators may move slightly after

This is not a malfunction.
CAUTION
•For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dampened
with water. Never use a rough cloth, alco-
hol, thinner or any kind of solvent or paper
towel with a chemical cleaning agent. They
will scratch or cause discoloration to the
lens.
•Do not spray any liquid such as water on the
meter lens. Spraying liquid may cause the
system to malfunction.
SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER
This vehicle is equipped with a speedometer
and odometer. The speedometer is located on
the right side of the meter cluster. The odom-
eter is located below the vehicle information
display.
NIC2651
METERS AND GAUGES
2-4Instruments and controls

Speedometer
The speedometer indicates vehicle speed.
The speedometer is divided into segments
1,
2and3only on vehicles with Intelligent
Cruise Control.
The segments in the speedometer indicate
which speed range is available (see Displays in
the speedometer in the5. Starting and driv-
ing section).
Odometer/Twin trip odometer
The odometer and the twin trip odometer are
displayed in the Vehicle Information Display
see Vehicle information display in the
5. Starting and driving section.
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
You should pay special attention to road condi-
tions when temperatures are around freezing
point.
Bear in mind that the outside temperature
display indicates the measured air temperature
and not the road surface temperature
Depending on the vehicle specification, the
outside temperature display is in either the
upper display or the main screen of the vehicle
information display. See Vehicle information
display in the2. Instruments and controls
section.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not rev the
engine in the red zone.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red zone,
shift to a higher gear or reduce engine speed.
Operating the engine in the red zone may
cause serious engine damage.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature. The engine coolant temperature is
within the normal range
1when the gauge
needle points within the zone shown in the
illustration. The engine coolant temperature
varies with the outside air temperature and
driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates coolant temperature
near the hot (H) end of the normal range, re-
duce vehicle speed to decrease temperature. If
the gauge is over the normal range, stop the
vehicle as soon as safely possible. If the en-
gine is overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the engine. For
additional information, refer to If your vehicle
overheats in the6. In case of emergency
section for immediate action required.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximatefuel
level in the tank when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, accelerating, or going up and down
hills due to movement of fuel in the tank.
The gauge needle returns to 0 (Empty) after the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
The low fuel warning
appears on the
vehicle information display when the fuel level
in the tank is getting low.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge registers
0 (Empty).
The arrow,
, indicates that the fuel-filler
lid is located on the left side of the vehicle.

,,,,
,,,,. These lights
should go out within a few seconds after start-
ing the engine. If any light fails to come on or
operates in a way other than described, it may indicate a burned out bulb and/or a system

WARNING LIGHTS
Also see
Vehicle information display later in
this section.
WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR LIGHTS AND
AUDIBLE REMINDERS
2-8Instruments and controls

Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the ABS warning light illuminates to indicate
that the ABS is operational. The light then turns
off within a few seconds after the engine is
started.
If the ABS light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the anti-lock braking
system is not functioning properly. Have the
system checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
If the ABS warning light comes on while driving,
it may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Observe the additional display mes-
sages (if any) in the vehicle information display.
Have the system checked by an INFINITI retailer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock assis-
tance (seeBrake system in the5. Starting and
driving section).
BRAKE warning light (red)
WARNING
•Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on. Driving
could be dangerous. If you judge it to be
safe, drive carefully to the nearest service
station for repairs. Otherwise, have your ve-
hicle towed because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
•Pressing the brake pedal when the ignition
switch is not in the ON position and/or when
the brake fluid level is low may increase the
stopping distance and braking will require
greater pedal effort as well as pedal travel.
•If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
or MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do
not drive until the brake system has been
checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light remains illuminated and
turns off when the engine is started. If the light
illuminates at any other time, it may indicate
that the brake system is not functioning prop-
erly. If the BRAKE warning light illuminates, stop the vehicle immediately and contact an
INFINITI retailer.
This light functions for both the parking brake
and the foot brake systems.
Low tire pressure warning
light (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the
tire pressure of all its tires.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of low
tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not
functioning properly.
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Low tire pressure warming light illuminates
to indicate that the system is operational. The
light then tuns off within a few seconds after
the engine is started.
Low tire pressure warning
:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire pres-
sure, the warning light will illuminate. A tire
pressure warning message also appears in the
vehicle information display.
When the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates, you should stop and adjust the tire pres-
sure of all 4 tires to the recommended COLD tire
