FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or ser-
iously injured if it is misused or
mishandled. Always stop engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames or
sparks near the vehicle when refuel-
ing.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts
off automatically. Continued refuel-
ing may cause fuel overflow, resulting
in fuel spray and possibly a fire.
. Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the Malfunction
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25
FUEL-FILLER DOOR

3-26Pre-driving checks and adjustments
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-
15).

Automatic anti-glare type
The inside mirror is designed so that it
automatically changes reflection according
to the intensity of the headlights of the
following vehicle.
The anti-glare system will be automatically
turned on when the ignition switch is pushed
to the ON position.
The anti-glare system also operates for the
outside mirrors (if so equipped).
When the anti-glare system is turned on, the
indicator light
will illuminate and excessive
glare from the headlights of the vehicle
behind you will be reduced.
Push the “*” switch
to make the inside mirror operate normally. The indicator light
will turn off. Push the “I” switch
to turn the
system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the sensors
or apply glass cleaner on them. Doing so
will reduce the sensitivity of the sensor,
resulting in improper operation.

operation, see “HomeLink®Universal Trans-
ceiver” (P.2-59).
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING
Objects viewed in the outside mirror on
the passenger side are closer than they
appear. Be careful when moving to the
right. Using only this mirror could cause
an accident. Use the inside mirror or
glance over your shoulder to properly
judge distances to other objects.

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.

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.SAA1840
