The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
The twin trip odometer records the dis-
tance of individual trips.
Changing the display:
Pushing the trip odometer reset switch
q 3
changes the display as follows.
AT models:
TRIP A ! TRIP B ! TRIP A
MT models:
TRIP A ! TRIP B ! Up-shift indicator set-
ting mode ! TRIP A
See ªDriving the vehicleº in the ª5. Start-
ing and drivingº section for the use of the
up-shift indicator.
Resetting the trip odometer:
Pushing the trip odometer reset switch for
more than 1 second resets the trip odom-
eter to zero.
TACHOMETER The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not rev
the engine into the red zone
q A
.
CAUTION When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear. Operating the
engine in the red zone may cause serious en-
gine damage. ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature.
The engine coolant temperature is within
the normal range
q A
when the gauge
needle points within the zone shown in
the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature will vary
with the outside air temperature and driv-
ing conditions. SIC2560 SIC2561

CAUTIONIf the gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature near the hot (H) of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
temperature. If gauge is over the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible. If the engine is overheated, contin-
ued operation of the vehicle may seriously
damage the engine. See ªIf your vehicle
overheatsº in the ª6. In case of emergencyº
section for immediate action required.
FUEL GAUGE The gauge indicates the approximate fuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning, acceleration, or going up or
down hill.
The gauge needle is designed to move to
the E (Empty) position when the ignition
key is turned to the OFF position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge regis-
ters the E (Empty) position. The low fuel warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon
as it is convenient, preferably before the
gauge reaches the E (Empty) position.
There will be a small reserve of fuel in the
tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches
the E (Empty) position.
The indicates that the fuel-filler door
is located on the passenger's side of the
vehicle.
CAUTION O If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)
may come on. Refuel as soon as pos-
sible. After a few driving trips, the
lamp should turn off. If the lamp
remains on after a few driving trips, have
the vehicle inspected by an INFINITI
dealer.
O For additional information, see ªMal-
function indicator lamp (MIL)º later in
this section. SIC2562

The compass is located in the center dis-
play.
Push COMP switch
q A
to turn the display
on or off when the ignition switch is in
the ON position. The heading direction
will be displayed. N: north
E: east
S: south
W: west
C : vehicle direction
The above example shows the display
changes from ªEastº to ªEast-southeastº.
If the compass unit does not receive any
correct signal for 10 minutes, the com-
pass will display the bar ª-- -- --º. Have
the vehicle checked by an INFINITI dealer.

Zone variation change procedure The difference between magnetic north
and geographical north is known as vari-
ance. In some areas, this difference can
sometimes be great enough to cause
false compass readings. Follow these in-
structions to set the variance for your par-
ticular location if this happens:
1. Establish your location on the zone
map
q A
. Record your zone number.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON po-
sition while pushing the COMP switch.
3. Continue to push the COMP switch for
more than 5 seconds until the current
zone entry number is displayed on the
compass display.
If any operations are not carried out
for more than 5 seconds, the display
shows direction as normal.
4. Push the COMP switch repeatedly until
the new zone entry number is dis-
played.
Once the desired zone number is dis-
played, stop pushing the COMP switch
and the display will show compass direc-
tion within a few seconds. SIC2243A

If a magnet is located near the driver side
instrument panel (the sensor is located in-
side) or the vehicle is driven where the ter-
restrial magnetism is disturbed, the com-
pass display may not indicate the correct
direction.
O The compass may not display correctly
at the following places:
Ð under a bridge
Ð among buildings
Ð on an iron bridge
Ð inside a tunnel
Ð above a subway
Ð on a railway crossing
Ð in an underground parking lot
Ð near a huge vehicle
Ð near a transformer substation
If you carry out correction procedure
at one of the above places, the proce-
dure may not be completed correctly.
O If air conditioner fan speed is
maximum, the compass display may
shake. This is normal. Reduce the fan
speed to avoid shaking the display. Correction functions of the
compass display If the direction is not shown correctly,
carry out the correction procedure below.
1. Push the COMP switch for about 10
seconds. The direction bar starts
blinking.
2. Turn off electrical equipment such as
lights, hazard indicator, air condi-
tioner, etc. Then drive the vehicle
slowly (less than 3 MPH (5 km/h)) and
turn the vehicle one or more times in
an open and safe area. When the com-
pass displays the direction, the proce-
dure is completed.
