FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
. Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled.
Always stop engine and do not smoke or
allow open flames or sparks near the
vehicle when refueling.
. Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling 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 emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap can result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury. It could also cause the
malfunction indicator light 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 whenfilling.
—Keep the pump nozzle in contactwith the container while you are
filling it.
—Use only approved portable fuelcontainers 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 until a single click is
heard. Failure to tighten the fuel-filler
cap properly may cause the
mal-
function indicator light (MIL) to illumi-
nate. If the
light illuminates
because the fuel-filler cap is loose or
missing, tighten or install the cap and
continue 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 by an INFINITI retailer.
. 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 message 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.

3-38Pre-driving checks and adjustments
The automatic drive positioner system has
two features:
.Seat synchronization function
. Memory storage
JVP0223X
SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION
The seat synchronization function automa-
tically adjusts the positions of the steering
wheel and outside mirrors when the seat is
adjusted using the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside
mirrors will not move if the seat is adjusted
over the maximum thresholds. The system
considers that the steering wheel and
outside mirror adjustments are not neces-
sary because the seat may not be adjusted
for the driving position. Note that the
function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting. The seat synchronization function operates
under the following conditions:
.
The ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
. The shift lever is in the P (Park) position
(Automatic Transmission models) or the
parking brake is applied (Manual Trans-
mission models).
. The seatback is raised.
If the outside mirrors or the steering wheel
reaches its maximum adjustment, the
function is automatically disabled. Restart
the function by selecting a previously
stored seat memory position using the
memory switches (1 or 2). An Intelligent
Key that was previously linked to the
stored seat memory can also be used to
restart the function.
If a seat position was not previously stored
in the seat memory, restart the function by
adjusting the steering wheel and outside
mirrors manually for your best driving
position and then drive the vehicle above
4 MPH (7 km/h).
