Power steering warning light
Models with Direct Adaptive Steering :
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the power steering warning light
illuminates. After starting the engine, the
power steering warning light stays on for a
few seconds and turns off. This indicates
that Direct Adaptive Steering is operational.
Drive the vehicle after the power steering
warning light turns off.
If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while driving, pull off the road to a
safe location and stop the vehicle. If the
power steering warning light turns off, you
can drive again. If the power steering
warning light continues to illuminate, it is
recommended you have Direct Adaptive Steering checked by an INFINITI retailer.
(See “Direct Adaptive Steering type” (P.5-
124).)
Models with electric power steering :
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the power steering warning light
illuminates. After starting the engine, the
power steering warning light turns off. This
indicates the electric power steering is
operational.
If the power steering warning light illumi-
nates while the engine is running, it may
indicate the electric power steering is not
functioning properly and may need servicing.
It is recommended you have the electric
power steering checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
When the power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running, the
power assist to the steering will cease
operation but you will still have control of
the vehicle. At this time, greater steering
efforts are required to operate the steering
wheel, especially in sharp turns and at low
speeds.
See “Electric power steering type” (P.5-124).

WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to come
into contact with the heated steering
wheel if you or the occupants cannot
monitor elevated steering wheel tem-
peratures or have an inability to feel pain
in those body parts in contact. Use of the
heated steering wheel by such people
could result in serious injuries.
CAUTION
.The battery could run down if the
steering wheel heater is operated
while the engine is not running.
. Do not use the steering wheel heater
for extended periods of time as it may
cause burns and overheating.
. Any liquid spilled on the steering
wheel should be removed immedi-
ately with a dry cloth.
. When cleaning the steering wheel,
never use gasoline, thinner, or any
similar materials.
. If any malfunctions are found or the
steering wheel heater does not oper-
ate, turn the heater off and have the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
Push the CLIMATE button and touch
[Steering Heater] on the lower display to
turn on or off the steering wheel heating
manually. The steering wheel heating will
turn off automatically 30 minutes after it
has been turned on. When the steering
wheel heating is turned on, the indicator
above [Steering Heater] will turn on.
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is above the temperature within which
the system is designed to operate, the
system will not heat the steering wheel. This
is not a malfunction.
Automatic steering wheel heating can be
turned on or off from the climate control
settings screen. For details, see “Climate
settings” (P.4-40).

The automatic drive positioner system has
the following features:
.Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the steering
column will automatically move when the
shift lever is in the P (Park) position. This
allows the driver to get into and out of the
driver’s seat more easily.
The steering wheel will move up when the
driver’s door is opened with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The steering wheel will return to the pre-
vious position when the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion
All the following conditions must be met
before cancelling or activating the entry/exit
function.
.The ignition switch is placed in the LOCK
position.
. The entry/exit function is not in opera-
tion.
. The following switches are not operated.
— Seat memory switches — Power seat switches
— Electric tilting/telescopic steering
wheel switch
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pushing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the [Lift Steering Wheel
on Exit] key is turned to ON or OFF in the
[Settings] menu on the lower display. (See
the INFINITI InTouch
TMOwner’s Manual.
The displayed keys on the lower display may
vary depending on models, specifications
and software versions.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the entry/exit function will not
work though this function was set on before.
In such a case, after connecting the battery
or replacing with a new fuse, open and close
the driver’s door more than two times after
the ignition switch is switched from the ON
position to the LOCK position. The entry/
exit function will be activated.

MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored in
the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the memory
system.
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjust-
ing switch. For additional information,
see “Seats” (P.1-2), “Tilt/telescopic
steering” (P.3-27) and “Outside mirrors”
