Installing the wheel
WARNING
•A temporary use spare wheel and tire is
designed for emergency use.
•Never use wheel bolts other than those
provided with your vehicle. Incorrect
wheel bolts or improperly tightened
wheel bolts may cause the wheel to be-
come loose or come off. This could cause
an accident.
•Never use oil or grease on the wheel
bolts. This may cause the wheel bolts to
become loose.

The wheel bolts must be kept tightened to
specification at all times. It is recommended
that the wheel bolts be tightened to specifi-
cation at each maintenance interval.
Adjust the tire pressure to the COLD pres-
sure.
COLD pressure is the tire pressure as mea-
sured after the vehicle has been parked for
three hours or more or driven for less than
1 mile (1.6 km).
COLD tire pressures are shown on the tire
and loading information label affixed to the
driver's side center pillar.Wheel lock bolts(if equipped)
In order to prevent theft, the specially de-
signed wheel lock bolt is installed to each

moved with the commonly used tools.
When removing tires, use the lock key pro-
vided with your vehicle.
Removing the wheel lock bolt:
1. Insert the wheel lock key
1to the wheel
lock bolt.
2. To remove the wheel lock bolt, turn the
wheel lock key counterclockwise using the
wheel wrench.
CAUTION

•When adding or replacing coolant, be
sure to use only INFINITI Genuine En-
gine Coolant, BASF Glysantin G40 or
equivalent in its quality. The use of other
types of engine coolant may damage the
engine cooling system.
CHECKING ENGINE COOLANT
LEVEL
NOTE
The coolant level must only be checked and
corrected when the engine is cold.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
Only check the coolant level if the vehicle
is on a level surface and the engine is cold.2. Slowly turn cap
1half a turn counter-
clockwise to allow excess pressure to es-
cape.
3. Turn cap
1further counter-clockwise
and remove it.
If the coolant is at the level of marker bar
3in the filler neck when cold, there is
enough coolant in coolant expansion tank
2.
4. If necessary, top up with INFINITI Genu-
ine Engine Coolant, BASF Glysantin G40
or equivalent in its quality.
5. Replace cap
1and turn it clockwise as
far as it will go.
If the cooling system frequently requires
coolant, have it checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
CHANGING ENGINE COOLANT
An INFINITI retailer can change the engine
coolant.
Improper servicing can result in reduced
heater performance and engine overheating.
WARNING
•To avoid being scalded, never change
the coolant when the engine is hot.
•Never remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. Serious burns could be
caused by high pressure fluid escaping
from the radiator.
•Avoid direct skin contact with used
coolant. If skin contact is made, wash
thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible.
•Keep coolant out of reach of children
and pets.
Engine coolant must be disposed of properly.
Check your local regulations.

8. Refill engine with recommended oil
through the oil filler opening, then install
the oil filler cap securely.
For additional information on drain and
refill capacity, refer to "Recommended

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When the
low tire pressure warning light is lit, one or
more of the tires is significantly under-
inflated.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle
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).
For additional information, refer to "Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)".
