When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the compass display
*Bwill
indicate the direction of the vehicle’ s
heading.
If the display reads “C ”, calibrate the
compass by driving the vehicle in 3
complete circles at less than 5 MPH (8 km/h). You can also calibrate the compass
by driving your vehicle on your everyday
route. The compass will be calibrated once
it has tracked 3 complete circles.
To turn on and off the compass manually,
push the
switch*Awhile the ignition
switch is in the ON position.

Zone map
ZONE VARIATION CHANGE PROCE-
DURE
The difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance.
In some areas, this difference can some-
times be great enough to cause false
compass readings. Follow these instruc-
tions to set the variance for your particular
location if this happens:
1. Push the
switch for more than 3
seconds. The current zone number will
appear in the display.
2. Find your current location and variance number on the zone map.
3. Push the
switch repeatedly until
the new zone number appears in the
display, then release the switch. After
you release the switch, the display will
show a compass direction within a few
seconds.
.If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon after re-
peated adjustment, have the com-
pass checked at an INFINITI retailer.
.The compass may not indicate thecorrect compass point in tunnels or
while driving up or down a steep hill.

Some indicators and warnings are also
displayed in the vehicle information dis-
play between the speedometer and tach-
ometer. (See “Vehicle information display”
(P.2-21).)
WARNING LIGHTS
12-volt battery charge warning
light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the 12-volt battery charge warn-
ing light illuminates. After starting the
hybrid system, the light turns off.
If the light continues to illuminate after
starting the hybrid system, it may indicate
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND
AUDIBLE REMINDERS

Forward emergency braking
system warning light (if so
equipped)
This light illuminates when the forward
emergency braking system is set to OFF on
the lower display.
If the light illuminates when the forward
emergency braking system is ON, it may
indicate that the system is unavailable.
See “Forward emergency braking system”
(P.5-89) for more details.
Low fuel warning light
This light illuminates when the fuel in the
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel
gauge reaches the 0 (empty) position.
There will be a small reserve of fuel
remaining in the tank when the fuel gauge
reaches the 0 position.
Low tire pressure warning
light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that
monitors the tire pressure of all tires.
The low tire pressure warning light warns
of low tire pressure and flat tire, or indicates that the TPMS is not functioning
properly.
After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, this light illuminates for about 1
second and turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
The
“Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
also appears in the vehicle information
display.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automati-
cally 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
is active as long as the low tire pressure
warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicleinformation display”
(P.2-21),“Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-4)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P.6-3).
Flat tire warning: The flat tire warning warns of a flat tire.
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. A
“ Flat Tire - Visit dealer” warning also
appears 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, 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.6-
4) and “Run-flat tires” (P.8-36).
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for

“Predictive forward collision warning sys-
tem” (P.5-94).
Power steering warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the power steering warning light
illuminates. After starting the hybrid sys-
tem, the power steering warning light turns
off. This indicates that the direct adaptive
steering system is operational.
If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while the hybrid system is running, it
may indicate the direct adaptive steering
system is not functioning properly and may
need servicing. Have the direct adaptive
steering system checked by an INFINITI
retailer. (See “Power steering” (P.5-104).)
Seat belt warning light and
chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten
seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, and will remain illuminated until
the driver’s seat belt is fastened. At the
same time, the chime will sound for about
6 seconds unless the driver’s seat belt is
securely fastened.
The seat belt warning light for the front
passenger will illuminate if the seat belt is
not fastened when the front passenger’s
seat is occupied.
See
“Seat belts” (P.1-10) for precautions
on seat belt usage.
Supplemental air bag warning
light
After pushing the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light will illuminate. The supplemental air
bag warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the supplemental front air bag
and supplemental side air bag, curtain
side-impact air bag systems and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt are operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
supplemental front air bag, supplemental
side air bag, supplemental curtain side-
impact air bag and pretensioner seat belt
needs servicing and your vehicle must be
taken to your nearest INFINITI retailer.
