down and the power assist level will return
to normal after starting the hybrid system.
The Hybrid EPS warning light will go off.
Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
system warning light (orange; if so
equipped)
This light comes on if there is a malfunction
in the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) sys-
tem.
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Stop the hybrid
system, restart the hybrid system, resume
driving and set the ICC system again.
If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the
system is malfunctioning. Although the
vehicle is still driveable under normal con-
ditions, have the vehicle checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) indicator light (orange; if so
equipped)
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light will come on in orange,
turn green, and then turn off. This indicates
that the Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) sys-
tems are operational.
While the LDW and/or LDP system is on,
the light will blink in orange and a warning
chime will sound if the vehicle is traveling
close to either the left or the right of a
traveling lane with detectable lane markers.
If the light comes on in orange and remains
on, it may indicate that the LDW and LDP
systems are not functioning properly. Have
the systems checked. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
See “Lane Departure Warning (LDW)/Lane
Departure Prevention (LDP)” (P.5-21).
Low tire pressure warning light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors
the tire pressure of all tires except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of
low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS
is not functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is pushed ON, 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. A
CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning also
appears in the vehicle information display.
If you select tire pressure information in the
display, the LOW PRESSURE warning mes-
sage will be displayed. The tire pressure for
each tire will also be displayed.
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 automatically 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 CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning is
active as long as the low tire pressure
warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
information display” (P.2-21), “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) ” (P.5-5) and
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ”
(P.6-3).
TPMS malfunction:If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is pushed ON. The light will remain on

sound when the vehicle is in motion. This
scraping sound will first occur only when the
brake pedal is depressed. After more wear of
the brake pad, the sound will always be
heard even if the brake pedal is not
depressed. Have the brakes checked as soon
as possible if the warning sound is heard.

Avoid quick starting or abrupt acceleration.
When the warning turns off, the vehicle can
be driven.
If the warning appears again soon after it

Do not hold the vehicle in a stopped
position on an uphill grade by depressing
the accelerator or by slowly creeping
forward. This may cause damage to the
transmission or the vehicle may enter
traffic causing serious injury or death.
Always use the brake pedal when stop-
ping on an uphill grade.
CAUTION
If you continue to drive the vehicle while
the warning is displayed, the vehicle may
become undriveable. If this occurs, place
the shift lever in the “P” position and
wait for a short period of time with the
vehicle stopped until the display goesout. In this case, the warning will be
displayed alternately with the SHIFT “P”
warning. (See “4. SHIFT “P” warning”
(P.2-23).)
Do not drive the vehicle while this is
displayed. Doing so could cause a hybrid
system malfunction.
18. Headlight warning
This warning appears if the LED headlights
are malfunctioning. It is recommended you
have the system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
19. Front radar obstruction warning
(if so equipped)
This warning appears when the sensor area
of the front bumper is covered with dirt or is
obstructed, making it impossible to detect a
vehicle ahead.
