HOW TO PARK WITH PREDIC-
TIVE COURSE LINES
WARNING
.
If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course lines and the
actual course line.
. The displayed lines will appear
slightly off to the right because the
rearview camera is not installed in the
rear center of the vehicle.
. If the battery is disconnected or
becomes discharged, the predictive
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, please perform
the following procedures:
— Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock while the engine is running.
— Drive the vehicle on a straight road for more than 5 minutes.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for RearView Monitor. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
.The system cannot completely elim-
inate blind spots and may not show
every object.
. Underneath the bumper and the
corner areas of the bumper cannot
be viewed on the RearView Monitor
because of its monitoring range lim-
itation. The system will not show
small objects below the bumper, and
may not show objects close to the
bumper or on the ground.
. Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
. Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors. .
Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, ve-
hicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
. Make sure that the trunk lid is
securely closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
. When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray
it around the camera. Otherwise,
water may enter the camera unit
causing water condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise, it
may malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.
. When strong light is directly coming on
the camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. .
Vertical lines may be seen in objects on
the screen. This is due to strong reflected
light from the bumper.
. The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear
in a dark environment.
. There may be a delay when switching to
the RearView Monitor.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display object clearly. Clean the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

Available views
WARNING
.The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is
on a paved, level surface. The dis-
tance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different
than the actual distance between the
vehicle and displayed objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly af-
fected by the number of occupants,
fuel level, vehicle position, road con-
dition and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
farther than they appear. When driv-
ing the vehicle down a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear.
. Objects in the rear view will appear
visually opposite compared to when viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
. Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
. The distance between objects viewed
in the rear view differs from actual
distance because a wide-angle lens is
used.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course lines and the
actual course line.
. The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
. The displayed lines on the rear view
will appear slightly off to the right
because the rearview camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.

SATELLITE ANTENNA
There is a satellite antenna on the rear part
of the vehicle roof.
A buildup of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception. When installing a car phone or a CB radio in
your vehicle, be sure to observe the follow-
ing cautions, otherwise the new equipment
may adversely affect the electronic control
modules and electronic control system har-
ness.
WARNING
.
A cellular phone should not be used
for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions prohibit
the use of cellular phones while
driving.
. If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if so
equipped) is highly recommended.
Exercise extreme caution at all times
so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
. If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.

THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission con-
trol device installed in the exhaust system.
Exhaust gases in the three-way catalyst are
burned at high temperatures to help reduce
pollutants.
WARNING
.The exhaust gas and the exhaust
system are very hot. Keep people,
animals or flammable materials away
from the exhaust system compo-
nents.
. Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry
grass, waste paper or rags. They
may ignite and cause a fire.
CAUTION
.Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits
from leaded gasoline seriously reduce
the three-way catalyst’s ability to
help reduce exhaust pollutants.
. Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc-
tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or
electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst,
causing it to overheat. Do not keep
driving if the engine misfires, or if
noticeable loss of performance or
other unusual operating conditions
are detected. Have the vehicle in-
spected promptly. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
. Avoid driving with an extremely low
fuel level. Running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, damaging
the three-way catalyst.
. Do not race the engine while warming
it up.
. Do not push or tow your vehicle to
start the engine.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different
size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a Tire Pressure Mon-
itoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale when one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure
telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving
on a significantly under-inflated tire causes
the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
For models with run-flat tires, if the vehicle
is being driven with one or more flat tires,
the low tire pressure warning light will
illuminate continuously and a chime will
sound for 10 seconds. The flat tire warning
will also appear in the vehicle information
display. The chime will only sound at the first
indication of a flat tire, and the warning light
will illuminate continuously. When the flat
tire warning is activated, it is recommended
you have the system reset and the tire
checked and replaced if necessary by an
INFINITI retailer. Even if the tire is inflated
to the specified COLD tire pressure, the
warning light will continue to illuminate until
the system is reset by an INFINITI retailer.
Your vehicle can be driven for a limited time
on a flat tire. See “Run-flat tires” (P.8-32).
Starting and driving5-5

5-6Starting and driving
Please note that the TPMS is not a sub-
stitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct
tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of
the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire pressure
as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur
for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.Additional information
.Since the spare tire (if so equipped) is not
equipped with the TPMS, the TPMS
does not monitor the tire pressure of
the spare tire.
. The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above 16
MPH (25 km/h). Also, this system may
not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure
(for example a flat tire while driving).
. The low tire pressure warning light does
not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is
inflated to the recommended pressure,
the vehicle must be driven at speeds
above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure
warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge
to check the tire pressure.
. The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display when the low tire pressure
warning light is illuminated and low tire
pressure is detected. The “Tire Pressure
Low - Add Air” warning turns off when
the low tire pressure warning light turns
off.
The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning does not appear if the low tire
pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction. .
The “Flat Tire - Visit dealer” warning (if
so equipped) appears in the vehicle
information display when the low tire
pressure warning light is illuminated and
one or more flat tires are detected.
. Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle’s opera-
tion and the outside temperature. Do not
reduce the tire pressure after driving
because the tire pressure rises after
driving. Low outside temperature can
lower the temperature of the air inside
the tire which can cause a lower tire
inflation pressure. This may cause the
low tire pressure warning light to illumi-
nate. If the warning light illuminates in
low ambient temperature, check the tire
pressure for all four tires.
. You can also check the pressure of all
tires (except the spare tire) in the vehicle
information display. (See “Vehicle infor-
mation display” (P.2-18).)
. After the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, it may take a period of time
for the tire pressure to be displayed while
the vehicle is driven. Depending on the
radio wave circumstance, tire pressure
may not correctly be displayed.
For additional information, see “Low tire
pressure warning light” (P.2-12) and “Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.6-
3).
