shows the operating condition. See “Active
Lane Control” (P.5-26) and “Active trace
control” (P.5-134) for more details.
12. Oil control system (for
VR30DDTT engine models)
Engine oil information informs the distance
to oil change.
Distance to oil change:
The distance to oil change is displayed if the
distance to oil change comes to be less than
940 miles (1,500 km).

When the set mileage approaches, the
engine oil replacement indicator will appear
on the display. After the oil is changed, reset
the oil control system by pushing the
orswitch for longer than 1 second.
The oil change interval cannot be adjusted
manually. The distance to oil change interval
is calculated depending on the driving con-
ditions and set automatically by the oil
control system.
CAUTION

played, change the engine oil as soon as
possible. Operating your vehicle with
deteriorated oil can damage the engine.

malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) to come on.
. Never pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle.
. Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:
— Always place the container on the ground when filling.
— Do not use electronic devices when filling.
— Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are
filling it.
— Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
. If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid
paint damage. .
Insert the cap straight into the fuel-
filler tube, then tighten the fuel-filler
cap until a single click is heard. Failure
to tighten the fuel-filler cap properly
may cause the
Malfunction In-
dicator Light (MIL) to illuminate. If
the
light illuminates because the
fuel-filler cap is loose or missing,
tighten or install the cap and con-
tinue 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.
. The Loose Fuel Cap warning will
appear if the fuel-filler cap is not
properly tightened. It may take a few
driving trips for the warning to be
displayed. Failure to tighten the fuel-
filler cap properly after the Loose
Fuel Cap warning appears may cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to illuminate.
. For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P.2-
17).
