MAINTENANCE INDICATORS
1. Engine oil replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for changing the engine oil.
You can set or reset the distance for
changing the engine oil. (See “Trip compu-
ter” later in this section.)
2. Oil filter replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing the oil filter.
You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip compu-
ter” later in this section.)
3. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set distance comes for replacing tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
tires. (See “Trip computer” later in this
section.)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, including
tire pressure checks. See “Changing wheels
and tires” in the“8. Maintenance and do-it-
Instruments and controls2-27

2-28Instruments and controls
yourself”section. Many factors including
tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and
road conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the tire
replacement indicator for a certain driving
distance does not mean your tires will last
that long. Use the tire replacement indicator
as a guide only and always perform regular
tire checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to a collision,
which could result in serious personal injury
or death.
4. “OTHER” indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing items other
than the engine oil, oil filter and tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
the items. (See “Trip computer” later in
this section.)
More maintenance reminders are also
available on the center display. (See
“ How to use INFO button” in the“4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systems” section.)

TRIP COMPUTER
Switches for the trip computer are located
on the right side of the combination meter
panel. To operate the trip computer, push
the side or front of the switches as shown
above.
*Aswitch
*Bswitch
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, modes of the trip computer
can be selected by pushing the
switch
*A.
Each time the
switch*Ais pushed, the
display will change as follows: Energy monitor
?Li-ion battery state of
charge and acceleration guide ?EV mode
odometer and twin trip odometer ?
Current fuel consumption ?Average fuel
consumption and speed ?Elapsed time
and trip odometer ?Distance to empty
(dte) ?Engine coolant temperature
gauge? Outside air temperature (ICY) ?
Setting ?Warning check
1. Energy monitor
The energy flow related to the hybrid
system is shown by the arrow symbols.
*A: Li-ion battery
*B: Engine
*Ashows the charge level of the Li-ion
battery.
+ : Charge level is high
- : Charge level is low
The charge level display will continuously
change as the Li-ion battery charge level
increase or decreases during normal vehi-
cle operation. Movement of the display
from the far right to the far left of the bar is
normal.
The energy monitor is also displayed on
the navigation system (if so equipped).
(See “Energy monitors” in the“Hybrid System Overview”
section.)
2. Li-ion battery state of charge and
acceleration guide
*ALi-ion battery state of charge:
This displays the remaining charge in the
Li-ion battery.
The charge level display will continuously
change as the Li-ion battery charge level
increase or decrease during normal vehicle
operation. Movement of the display from
the far right to the far left of the bar is
normal.
This works in conjunction with the remain-
ing battery display on the navigation
system screen (if so equipped).
*BAcceleration guide:
This display provides the driver a visual
display of how efficiently the vehicle is
being driven based on accelerator pedal
position. When the drive mode is set to
ECO using the drive mode selector, the
acceleration guide operates with the ECO
drive indicator (See “ECO drive indicator
light” earlier in this section) and ECO pedal
(if so equipped) to help you improve fuel
economy. (See “INFINITI drive mode selec-
tor” and“ECO pedal system” in the“5.
Instruments and controls2-29

2-30Instruments and controls
Starting and driving”section.)
JVI0258X
*A: Economy range
*B: Power range
*C: Accelerator pedal position indicator
JVI0259X
The above examples of the acceleration
guide means the following conditions.
1. The vehicle is being driven economic-
ally when the vehicle is driven with the
accelerator pedal position in the econ-
omy range.
2. The vehicle is being driven less eco- nomically when the vehicle is driven
with the accelerator pedal position in
the power range.
This will not be displayed when Intelligent
Cruise Control (ICC) system is operating.

3. EV mode odometer and twin trip
odometer
EV mode odometer:
This indicates the total distance traveled
using the electric motor only.
EV mode twin trip odometer:
This indicates the distance traveled in an
individual trip using the electric motor
only.
2 types of individual trip can be recorded,
TRIP A and TRIP B.
Pushing the TRIP RESET switch will toggle
between TRIP A and TRIP B.
To reset the display to 0, hold down the
TRIP RESET switch for more than approxi-
mately 1 second.
4. Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption mode shows
the current fuel consumption.
5. Average fuel consumption (MPG
or l (liter)/100 km) and speed (MPH
or km/h)
Fuel consumption:
The average fuel consumption mode shows
the average fuel consumption since thelast reset. Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second.
(The average speed is also reset at the
same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
At about the first 1/3 mile (500 m) after a
reset, the display shows “——”.
Speed:
The average speed mode shows the
average vehicle speed since the last reset.
Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second. (The
average fuel consumption is also reset at
the same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The first 30 seconds after a reset, the
display shows “——”.
6. Elapsed time and trip odometer
(mls or km)
Elapsed time:
The elapsed time mode shows the time
since the last reset. The displayed time can
be reset by pushing the
switch*Bfor
longer than 1 second. (The trip odometer is
also reset at the same time.) Trip odometer:
The trip odometer mode shows the total
distance the vehicle has been driven since
the last reset. Resetting is done by pushing
the
switch*Bfor longer than 1
second. (The elapsed time is also reset at
the same time.)
7. Distance to empty (dte —mls or
km)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides
you with an estimation of the distance that
can be driven before refueling. The dte is
constantly being calculated, based on the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the
actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning
feature. If the fuel level is low, the warning
is displayed on the screen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the
dte display will change to “——”.
. If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch
is pushed to the OFF position may
continue to be displayed.
. When driving uphill or rounding curves,
the fuel in the tank shifts, which may
Instruments and controls2-31

2-32Instruments and controls
momentarily change the display.
8. Engine coolant temperature
gauge
The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature.
This displays the temperature of the
engine coolant. The range of coolant over-
heat is indicated by the horizontal line of
the upper part of the H mark.
The engine coolant temperature varies with
the outside air temperature and driving
conditions.
CAUTION
If the engine is overheated, continued
operation of the vehicle may seriously
damage the engine. See“If your vehicle
overheats” in the“6. In case of emergency”
section for immediate action required.
9. Outside air temperature (ICY —8F
or 8C)
The outside air temperature is displayed in
8For 8C in the range of −22 to 1318F(−30
to 558C). The outside air temperature mode includes
a low temperature warning feature. If the
outside air temperature is below 378
F
(38C), the warning is displayed on the
screen.
The outside temperature sensor is located
in front of the radiator. The sensor may be
affected by road or engine heat, wind
directions and other driving conditions.
The display may differ from the actual
outside temperature or the temperature
displayed on various signs or billboards.
10. Setting
