Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians (VSP) System
The v SP system helps alert pedestrians to the presence of the vehicle when it\
is being driven



at a low speed.

w hen the vehicle starts to move, it produces a sound. The sound stops whe\

This sound will activate again when decelerating to a speed less than 16\
MPH (25 km/h).
For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview” section of your Owner’s Manual.

a decreased coverage area at the outer corners
of the bumper.
The system tones faster as the vehicle gets closer to
the obstacle. A continuous tone sounds when an
obstacle is less than 11.8 in (30 cm) from the bumper.

Forest Air® System (if so equipped)
This system helps keep the air inside your vehicle



clean using an automatic air intake and ventilation




system that monitors air quality with outside and




inside sensors.
Automatic humidity control prevents over-drying of



the passenger compartment and fogging of the

The Blind Spot Intervention™ (BSI) system can assist
the driver in returning the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane by applying individual brake pressure
to the left or right wheels for a short period of time.
The indicator light
02 will first illuminate in orange and

then turn green before turning off. This indicates that

essential information
Hybrid System Warning Light
This light will illuminate when the ignition switch is
in the ON position and will turn off when the hybrid
system is started.
The light will also illuminate when a malfunction



occurs in the electric motor or hybrid system.
w hen this light illuminates while driving, immediately



stop the vehicle in a safe location and c
ontact an INFINITI retailer.
If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate\
that the Li-ion battery



charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” of your Owner’s Manual.
Hybrid Awareness
Your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your \
vehicle while it is ON, but the
engine is not running, the engine will automatically start, informing yo\
u that the car
is still ON.
Do not store your INFINITI Intelligent k ey within detection range of the vehicle. This may
cause welcome lights and other functions to activate, creating unwanted \
battery drain.
The hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance. Ac\
tivation of the
electric mode may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full \
battery display does

not indicate the vehicle should be in the electric mode.
For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview” section of your Owner’s Manual.

essential information
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
A C
HEC k t IRE PRESSURE warning message will



appear in the vehicle information display 01
and the low tire pressure warning light
02 will

illuminate when one or more tires are low in



pressure and air is needed.


•

The


tire

pressures

should

be

checked

when the

tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after


the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
After the tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle
at speeds above 16 MPH (25km/h). The C
HEC k t IRE

PRESSURE

warning message and low tire pressure
warning light will extinguish.

w hen the low tire pressure warning light flashes
for 1 minute and then remains on, the TPMS is not
functioning properly. Have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer.
Tire pressure rises and falls, depending on the heat caused by the vehic\
le’s operation and
the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperatu\
re of the air
inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This m\
ay cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates, \
check the tire pressure
in your tires.
•

Check
the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Pl\
ease refer to
“Technical and consumer information (section 9)” in your Owner’\
s Manual for the location of
the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
