4. QUESTION 4
During driving, does the fuel gauge pointer move gradually toward EMPTY position?
YES >> Check the fuel level sensor unit. Refer to DI-25, "CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT" .
NO >> The float arm may interfere or bind with any of the components in the fuel tank.

CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT
For removal, refer to FL-4, "FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT, FUEL FILTER AND FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY" .
Check Fuel Level Sensor Unit and Fuel Pump (Main)
Check the resistance between terminals 2 and 5.
*1 and *2: When float rod is in contact with stopper.
If the results of check are NG, check the fuel level sensor unit
and fuel pump (main) harness. Refer to DI-25, "
Check Fuel
Level Sensor Unit and Pump (Main) Harness" .
Check Fuel Level Sensor Unit and Pump (Main) Harness
Check continuity at following terminals.
If the results of check are NG, replace fuel pump assembly. If the
results of check are OK, replace fuel level sensor unit.

COMPASS
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
COMPASSPFP:24835
System DescriptionAKS007AO
This unit displays earth magnetism and heading direction of vehicle.
DIRECTION DISPLAY
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the “ON” or “START” position. The direction will be displayed.
Pushing the “COMP” switch a second time will turn off the display.
1. If the display reads “C” calibrate the compass by driving the vehicle in 3 complete circles at less than 8 km/h (5 MPH).
2. To adjust for compass variance:
a. Press the “COMP” switch for more than 3 seconds. The current zone number will appear in the display.
b. Find your current location and variance zone number on the zone map.
c. Press the “COMP” switch until the new zone number appears in the display. After you stop pressing the button in, the display will show a compass direction within a few seconds.
NOTE:
1. Do not install the ski rack, antenna, etc. which are attached to the vehicle by means of a magnet. They affect the operation of the compass.
2. If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon after repeated adjustment, have the compass checked at an authorized dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tunnels or while driving up or down a steep hill. (The compass returns to the correct compass point when the vehicle moves to an area where the
geomagnetism is stabilized.)
3. Cleaning the Mirror When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not
spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
“C” is displayed in the compass window.

TOW TRUCK TOWINGPFP:00000
Tow Truck TowingAAS000EH
CAUTION:
All applicable state or Provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during
towing operation. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
Always attach safety chains before towing.
When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear (that is backward) with four wheels on
the ground. This may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:
Never tow automatic transmission models with the rear wheels on the ground or four wheels on
the ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the trans-
mission.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels raised, always use towing dollies under
the rear wheels.
When towing rear wheel drive models with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
–Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead posi-
tion with a rope or similar device.Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
–Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.
When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle
should be towed with the front wheels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the propeller shaft before towing to prevent dam-
age to the transmission.

AWD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated when towing AWD models.
CAUTION:
Never tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expen-
sive damage to the powertrain.
Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle) AAS000EI
Securely install the vehicle recovery hook stored with jacking tools.
Make sure that the hook is properly secured in the stored place after
use.
WARNING:
Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could cause them
to explode and result in serious injury. Parts of your vehicle
could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:
Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the vehicle
recovery hooks or main structural members of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a vehicle stuck in
sand, snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehicle using the vehi-
cle tie downs or recovery hooks.
Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehi-
cle. Never pull on the hook at an angle.
Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any
part of the suspension, steering, brake or cooling systems.
Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not rec-
ommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.
