For driver and front passenger:
The light and chime remind you to fasten the
driver and front passenger seat belts.
The light illuminates whenever the ignition
switch is pushed to the ON position, and will
remain illuminated until the front seat belts
are fastened.
When the vehicle speed exceeds approxi-
mately 10 MPH (15 km/h), the light will blink
unless the front seat belts are securely
fastened.
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the chime will sound for
approximately 6 seconds unless the driver’s
seat belt is securely fastened.

Forward Emergency Braking
(FEB) system warning light
This light comes on when the ignition switch
is placed in the ON position. It turns off after
the engine is started.
This light illuminates when the Forward
Emergency Braking (FEB) with pedestrian
detection system is set to OFF on the lower
display.
If the light illuminates when the FEB with
pedestrian detection system is ON, it may
indicate that the system is unavailable. See “Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) with
pedestrian detection” (P.5-95) for more de-
tails.
Low tire pressure warning light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors
the tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of
low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS
is not functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is pushed ON, this
light illuminates for about 1 second and
turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate. A
"Tire Pressure Low Add Air" warning also
appears in the vehicle information display.
The tire pressure for each tire will also be
displayed.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label. The low tire pressure
warning light does not automatically turn
off when the tire pressure is adjusted. After
the tire is inflated to the recommended
pressure, the vehicle must be driven atspeeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate
the TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure
warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge to
check the tire pressure.
The "Tire Pressure Low Add Air" warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the
low tire pressure warning light remains
illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
information display” (P.2-20), “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5) and
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ”
(P.6-3).
TPMS malfunction:If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is pushed ON. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. Have the system checked. It
is recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. The "Tire Pressure Low
Add Air" warning does not appear if the low
tire pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).

appears in the vehicle information dis-
play. If the fuel-filler cap is loose or
missing, tighten or install the cap and
continue to drive the vehicle. The
light should turn off after a few driving
trips. If thelight does not turn off
after a few driving trips, have the vehicle
inspected. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. You do
not need to have your vehicle towed to
the retailer.
. Malfunction indicator light blinking — An
engine misfire has been detected which
may damage the emission control sys-
tem.
To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH (72 km/h).
2) Avoid hard acceleration or decelera- tion.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may stop
blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service. You do not need to have
your vehicle towed to the retailer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary could
lead to poor driveability, reduced fuel
economy, and possible damage to the
emission control system.

For additional information, see “Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-125).
Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light
The light will blink when the VDC system or
the traction control system is operating, thus
alerting the driver that the vehicle is nearing
its traction limits. The road surface may be
slippery.
When the VDC warning light illuminates
when the VDC system is turned on, this light
alerts the driver to the fact that the VDC
system’s fail-safe mode is operating, for
example the VDC or hill start assist system
may not be functioning properly. Have the
system checked. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. If a
malfunction occurs in the system, the VDC
system function will be canceled but the
vehicle is still driveable. For additional
information, see “Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system” (P.5-125).
