FUEL INFORMATION
Gasoline engine
CAUTION
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded
gasoline will damage the three-way catalyst.
2.0L gasoline engine model
:
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
number (Research octane number 95).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available,
unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating
of at least 89 AKI number (Research octane
number 93) may be temporarily used, but only
under the following precautions:
•Have the fuel tank filled only partially with
unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with
unleaded premium gasoline as soon as pos-
sible.
•Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt accel-
eration.
Use unleaded premium gasoline for maximum
vehicle performance.
CAUTION
•Using a fuel other than that specified could
adversely affect the emission control sys-
tem, and may also affect warranty coverage.
•Under no circumstances should a leaded
gasoline be used, because this will damage
the three-way catalyst.
•Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is not designed to run on E-15 or
E-85 fuel. Using E-15 or E- 85 fuel in a vehicle
not specifically designed for E-15 or E-85
fuel can adversely affect the emission con-
trol devices and systems of the vehicle.
Damage caused by such fuel is not covered
by the INFINITI new vehicle limited war-
ranty.

QUICK REFERENCE

The SRS is designed tosupplementthe crash
protection provided by the driver and front pas-
senger seat belts and is not a substitute for them.
Seat belts should always be correctly worn and
the occupant seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument panel and
front door finishers. For additional information,
see “Seat belts” earlier in this section.
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the air bag warning light will illu-
minate. The air bag warning light will turn
off within a few seconds after the engine is
started if the system is operational. See
“Warning lights, indicator lights and au-
dible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section for further details.
WRS0031

When a front air bag inflates, a fairly loud noise
may be heard, followed by the release of smoke.
This smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a
fire. Care should be taken to not inhale it, as it may
cause irritation and choking. Those with a history
of a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
Front air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the face and
chest of the front occupants. They can help save
lives and reduce serious injuries. However, an
inflating front air bag may cause facial abrasions
or other injuries. Front air bags do not provide
restraint to the lower body.
Even with INFINITI Advanced Air Bags, seat belts
should be correctly worn and the driver and pas-
senger seated upright as far as practical away
from the steering wheel or instrument panel. The
front air bags inflate quickly in order to help
protect the front occupants. Because of this, the
force of the front air bag inflating can increase the
risk of injury if the occupant is too close to, or is
against, the front air bag module during inflation.
The front air bags deflate quickly after a collision.The front air bags operate only when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off a few seconds
after the engine starts if the system is op-
erational.
Front passenger air bag and status
light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF under some condi-
tions. Read this section carefully to learn
how it operates. Proper use of the seat,
seat belt and child restraints is necessary
for most effective protection. Failure to
follow all instructions in this manual con-
cerning the use of seats, seat belts and
child restraints can increase the risk or
severity of injury in an accident.
1indi-
cator light
2indi-
cator light
Status light
The front passenger seat is equipped with an
occupant classification sensor (pressure sensor)
that turns the front passenger air bag on or off
depending on the weight applied to the front
passenger seat. The indicator lights inform you
whether the front passenger front air bag is dis-
abled or enabled.
LRS2885

Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag systems
The side air bags are located in the outside of the
seatback of the front seats. The curtain air bags
are located in the side roof rails.All of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual apply and must be followed. The
side air bags and curtain air bags are designed to
inflate in higher severity side collisions, although
they may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of a higher severity
impact. They are designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted. They may not
inflate in certain side collisions. Curtain air bags
are also designed to inflate in certain types of
rollover collisions or near rollovers. As a result,
certain vehicle movements (for example, during
severe off-roading) may cause the curtain air
bags to inflate.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper side air bag and curtain air
bag operation.
When the side air bags and curtain air bags
inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, followed
by release of smoke. This smoke is not harmful
and does not indicate a fire. Care should be taken
not to inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breathing con-
dition should get fresh air promptly.
Side air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the chest of
the front occupants. Curtain air bags help to
cushion the impact force to the head of occu-
pants in the front and rear outboard seating po-
sitions in all rows. They can help save lives and
reduce serious injuries. However, an inflating
side air bag or curtain air bag may cause abra-
sions or other injuries. Side air bags and curtain
air bags do not provide restraint to the lower
body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the
driver and front passenger seated upright as far
as practical away from the side air bag. Rear seat
passengers should be seated as far away as
practical from the door finishers and side roof
rails. The side air bags and curtain air bags inflate
quickly in order to help protect the occupants.
Because of this, the force of the side air bags and
curtain air bags inflating can increase the risk of
injury if the occupant is too close to, or is against,
these air bag modules during inflation. The side
air bag will deflate quickly after the collision is
over.
The curtain air bag will remain inflated for a short
time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags op-
erate only when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position. After placing the
ignition switch in the ON position, the
supplemental air bag warning light illumi-
nates. The supplemental air bag warning
light will turn off a few seconds after the
engine starts if the system is operational.
LRS2889

knee air bag will deflate quickly after the collision
is over OR the knee air bag will remain inflated for
a short time.
The knee air bags operate only when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off a few seconds
after the engine starts if the system is op-
erational.
WARNING
●Do not place any objects between the
knee bolster and the driver’s seat. Such
objects may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if a knee air bag
inflates.
● Right after inflation, the knee air bag
system components will be hot. Do not
touch them; you may severely burn
yourself.
● No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the knee air bag system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental inflation
of the knee air bag system. ●
Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle’s electrical system or sus-
pension system. This could affect
proper operation of the knee air bag
system.
● Tampering with the knee air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
For example, do not change the driver
knee bolster or install additional trim
material around the knee air bag.
● It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the knee air bag. It is also recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for installation of electrical equip-
ment. The SRS wiring harnesses*
should not be modified or discon-
nected. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices should
not be used on the knee air bag system.
*The SRS wiring harness or connectors
are yellow or orange for easy
identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the knee air bag system
and guide the buyer to the appropriate sections
in this manual.
Seat belt with pretensioner(s)
WARNING
● The pretensioner(s) cannot be reused
after activation. They must be replaced
together with the retractor and buckle
as a unit.
● If the vehicle becomes involved in a
collision but pretensioner(s) are not ac-
tivated, be sure to have the preten-
sioner system checked and, if neces-
sary, replaced. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
● No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the pretensioner system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental activation
of the pretensioner(s) . Tampering with
the pretensioner system may result in
serious personal injury.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG
WARNING LIGHT
The supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying
in the instrument panel, moni-
tors the circuits for the air bag systems, preten-
sioner(s) and all related wiring.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning light
illuminates. The air bag warning light will turn off
within a few seconds after the engine is started, if
the system is operational. If any of the following conditions occur, the front
air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag and preten-
sioner systems need servicing:
● The supplemental air bag warning light re-
mains on after approximately 7 seconds.
● The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
● The supplemental air bag warning light does
not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bag, side air
bag, curtain air bag, knee air bag or pretensioner
systems may not operate properly. They must be
checked and repaired. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the front air bag,
side air bag, knee air bag, curtain air bag
and/or pretensioner systems will not op-
erate in an accident. To help avoid injury to
yourself or others, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
