Parking brake indicator:
When the ignition key is in the ON position, the
light comes on when the parking brake is
applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
The light warns of a low brake fluid level. If the
light comes on while the engine is running with
the parking brake not applied, stop the vehicle
and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid
as necessary. See ªBrake fluidº in the ª8.
Do-it-yourselfº section.
WARNINGO Your brake system may not be work-
ing 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 re-
pairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle
towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
O Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake fluid level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require greater
pedal effort as well as greater pedal
travel.
O If the brake fluid level is below the
MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir,
do not drive until the brake system
has been checked at an INFINITI re-
tailer.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the
warning system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
ABS component warning light:
The electronic component of ABS does not
work properly, if the light comes on together
with the anti-lock brake warning light when the
brake fluid is correct and the parking brake is
released. Have the system checked by an
INFINITI retailer. Drive vehicle at speeds and
avoid abrupt braking.
Charge warning light If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging sys-
tem is not functioning properly. Turn the en-
gine off and check the alternator belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing or if the light remains
on, see your INFINITI retailer immediately.
CAUTION Do not continue driving if the belt is
loose, broken or missing.
Door open warning light This light comes on when any of the doors are
not closed securely while the ignition key is
ON.
Engine oil pressure warning
light This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If
the light flickers or comes on during normal
driving, pull off the road in a safe area, stop the
engine immediately and call an INFINITI re-
tailer or other authorized repair shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level. Use the
dipstick to check the oil level. See ªEngine
oilº in the ª8. Do-it-yourselfº section.

How to activate the vehicle security
system 1. Close all windows.
The system can be activated even if the
windows are open.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close and lock all doors, hood and trunk lid.
Lock all doors by pressing the LOCK button
on the keyfob. When using the keyfob, the
hazard indicators flash twice to indicate all
doors are locked. 4. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator light
comes on. The SECURITY indicator light
glows for about 30 seconds and then blinks.
The system is now activated. If, during this
30 second time period, the door is unlocked
by the key or the keyfob, or the ignition key
is turned to ACC or ON, the system will not
activate.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all doors, hood and trunk lid locked
and ignition key off. Turn the ignition key to
ACC to turn off the system.
Vehicle security system operation The security system will give the following
alarm:
O The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
O The alarm automatically turns off after ap-
proximately 1 minute. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by unlock-
ing a door with the key, or by pressing the
UNLOCK button on the keyfob.
The alarm is activated by:
O Opening the door without using the key or
keyfob. O Opening the trunk lid without using the key
or keyfob.
O Opening the hood.
How to stop alarm The alarm will stop only by unlocking a door
with the key, or by pressing the UNLOCK
button on keyfob. The alarm will not stop if the
ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON.
If the system does not operate as de-
scribed above, have it checked by your
INFINITI retailer.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM The Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered
Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System key, it may
be due to interference caused by another
Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System key, an
automated toll road device or automated pay-
ment device on the key ring. Restart the en-
gine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.SIC1442

2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK
position and wait approximately 10 sec-
onds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered Infiniti Vehicle
Immobilizer System key.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
INFINITI recommends placing the regis-
tered Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System
key on a separate key ring to avoid inter-
ference from other devices.

The light illuminates when the trunk lid is
opened. When the trunk lid is closed, the light
will go off. The HomeLink Universal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink Universal Transceiver:
O Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
O Is powered by your vehicle's battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle's battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink will retain all program-
ming.
Once the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(i.e., new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of
the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased for security purposes. For addi-
tional information, refer to ªProgramming
HomeLink º later in this section. WARNING O Do not use the HomeLink Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by fed-
eral safety standards. (These stan-
dards became effective for opener
models manufactured after April 1,
1982). A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object in the path of
a closing garage door and then auto-
matically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the
risk of serious injury or death.
O During programming, your garage
door or gate may open or close. Make
sure that people and objects are clear
of the garage door or gate that you
are programming.
O Your vehicle's engine should be
turned off while programming the
