Other supplemental front-impact
air bag precautions
WARNING
•Do not place any objects on the steering
wheel pad or on the instrument panel.
Also, do not place any objects between
any occupant and the steering wheel or
instrument panel. Such objects may be-
come dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if the front air bags inflate.
•Immediately after inflation, several
front air bag system components will be
hot. Do not touch them; you may se-
verely burn yourself.
•No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the supplemental air bag system. This is
to prevent accidental inflation of the
supplemental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
•Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle's electrical system, suspen-
sion system or front end structure. This
could affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
•Tampering with the front air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
Tampering includes changes to the
steering wheel and the instrument panel
assembly by placing material over the
steering wheel pad and above the in-
strument panel or by installing addi-
tional trim material around the air bag
system.
•Removing or modifying the front pas-
senger seat may affect the function of
the air bag system and result in serious
personal injury.
•Modifying or tampering with the front
passenger seat may result in serious
personal injury. For example, do not
change the front seats by placing mate-
rial on the seat cushion or by installing
additional trim material, such as seat
covers, on the seat that are not specifi-
cally designed to assure proper air bag
operation. Additionally, do not stow any
objects under the front passenger seat
or the seat cushion and seatback. Such
objects may interfere with the proper
operation of the occupant classification
sensor (pressure sensor).
•No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the seat belt system. This may affect the
front air bag system. Tampering with
the seat belt system may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
•It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
installation of electrical equipment. The
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
wiring harnesses* should not be modi-
fied or disconnected. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and probing
devices should not be used on the air bag
system.
•A cracked windshield should be replaced
immediately by a qualified repair facil-
ity. A cracked windshield could affect
the function of the supplemental air bag
system.
*
The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the front air bag
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner's Manual.

HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED
HEADLIGHT ONLY)
You can use this function to set the head-
lights to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlights from high beam to
low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low
beam headlight range depending on the dis-
tance to the other vehicle. Once the system
no longer detects any other vehicles, it
switches on the high beam headlights again.
The system's optical sensor is located behind
the windshield near the overhead control
panel.
WARNING
•The high beam assist system is a conve-
nience but is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driv-
ing practices and switch the high beams
and low beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the follow-
ing conditions. Switch the high beam
and low beam manually.
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
–When a light source similar to a head-
light or tail light is in the vicinity of
the vehicle.
–When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials
on the lights, or when the light beam
is out of position.
–When there is a sudden, continuous
change in brightness.
–When driving on a road that passes
over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
–When driving on a road with many
curves.–When a sign or mirror-like surface is
reflecting intense light towards the
front of the vehicle.
–When the container, etc. being towed
by a leading vehicle is reflecting in-
tense light.
–When a headlight on your vehicle is
damaged or dirty.
–When the vehicle is leaning at an
angle due to a punctured tire, being
towed, etc.
•The timing of switching the low beam
and high beam may change under the
following situations.
–The brightness of the headlights of
the oncoming vehicle or leading ve-
hicle.
–The movement and direction of the
oncoming vehicle and the leading ve-
hicle.
–When only one light on the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle is illumi-
nated.
–When the oncoming vehicle or the
leading vehicle is a two-wheeled ve-
hicle.
–Road conditions (incline, curve, the
road surface, etc.).
–The number of passengers and the

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
warning messages
If the tire pressure monitor detects a pressure
loss in one or more tires, a warning message
is shown in the vehicle information display
and the yellow tire pressure monitor warning
light comes on.
•If the [Please Correct Tire Pressure] (yel-
low) message appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display, the tire pressure in at least
one tire is too low and must be corrected
at the next opportunity. If the system de-
tects that new sensors have been fitted
(IDs do not match those stored, and the
pressure is not feasible, or is less than 14%
under the norm then the [Please Correct
Tire Pressure] message will be displayed in
white.
•If the [Check Tires] (red) message appears
in the vehicle information display, the tire
pressure in one or more tires has dropped
significantly and the tires must be checked.
•If the [Warning Tire Malfunction] (red)
message appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display, the tire pressure in one or
more tires has dropped suddenly and the
tires must be checked.
•If the [Tire Press. Sensor(s) Missing] mes-
sage appears in the vehicle information
display, one or more sensors are missing or
cannot be detected. This could be the re-
sult of fitting a replacement wheel/tire.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in
the display messages in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are inter-
changed, the tire pressures may be displayed
for the wrong positions for a short time. After
a few minutes of driving, this is rectified and
the tire pressures are displayed for the cor-
rect positions.
Restarting TPMS
To keep the TPMS functioning properly, the
restart operation must be performed in the
following cases:
•When the tire pressure is adjusted
•When a tire or a wheel is replaced
•When the tires are rotated
When you restart the tire pressure monitor,
all existing warning messages are deleted
and the warning lights go out. The monitor
uses the currently set tire pressures as the
reference values for monitoring. In mostcases, the tire pressure monitor will auto-
matically detect the new reference values af-
ter you have changed the tire pressure. How-
ever, you can also define reference values
manually as described here. The tire pressure
monitor then monitors the new tire pressure
values.
Perform the following procedures to restart
the TPMS.
NOTE
Before restarting, make sure that the tire
pressures are set properly on all four tires for
the respective operating conditions. The
recommended tire pressures can be found in
the tire pressure placard on the driver' door
pillar.
1. Make sure that the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
2. Press the
orbutton on the
steering wheel to select the [Serv.] menu.
3. Press the
orbutton to select
[Tire Pressure].
4. Press to confirm.
The vehicle information display shows the
current tire pressure for each tire or the
[Tire pressures will be displayed after
driving a few minutes] message.

DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
They have higher ground clearance than pas-
senger cars to make them capable of per-
forming in a variety of on-pavement and off-
road applications. This gives them a higher
center of gravity than ordinary vehicles. An
advantage of higher ground clearance is a
better view of the road, allowing you to an-
ticipate problems. However, they are not de-
signed for cornering at the same speeds as
conventional 2-wheel drive vehicles any more
than low-slung sports cars are designed to
perform satisfactorily under off-road condi-tions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns at
high speeds. As with other vehicles of this
type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly
may result in loss of control or vehicle roll-
over. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is
significantly more likely to die than a person
wearing a seat belt.
For additional information, refer to "Driving
safety precautions" later in this section.
AVOIDING COLLISION AND
ROLLOVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe and
prudent manner may result in loss of con-
trol or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times.
Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive
speed, high speed cornering, or sudden steer-
ing maneuvers, because these driving prac-
tices could cause you to lose control of your
vehicle.
As with any vehicle, loss of control could re-
sult in a collision with other vehicles or ob-
jects or cause the vehicle to roll over, par-
ticularly if the loss of control causes the
vehicle to slide sideways.Be attentive at all
times, and avoid driving when tired. Never
5-8Starting and driving

2. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel
with both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
3. When appropriate, slowly release the ac-
celerator pedal to gradually slow the ve-
hicle.
4. Gradually steer the vehicle to a safe loca-
tion off the road and away from traffic if
possible.
5. Lightly apply the brake pedal to gradually
stop the vehicle.
6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and
contact a roadside emergency service to
change the tire. For additional informa-
tion, refer to "Flat tire".
DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS
AND DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of alcohol
or drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream re-
duces coordination, delays reaction time
and impairs judgement. Driving after
drinking alcohol increases the likelihood of
being involved in an accident injuring your-
self and others. Additionally, if you are in-
jured in an accident, alcohol can increase
the severity of the injury.INFINITI is committed to safe driving. How-
ever, you must choose not to drive under the
influence of alcohol. Every year thousands of
people are injured or killed in alcohol-related
accidents. Although the local laws vary on
what is considered to be legally intoxicated,
the fact is that alcohol affects all people dif-
ferently and most people underestimate the
effects of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t mix!
And that is true for drugs, too (over-the-
counter, prescription, and illegal drugs). Don’t
drive if your ability to operate your vehicle is
impaired by alcohol, drugs, or some other
physical condition.
DRIVING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your INFINITI is designed for both normal
and off-road use. However, avoid driving in
deep water or mud as your INFINITI is mainly
designed for leisure use, unlike a conventional
off-road vehicle.
Remember that 2–wheel drive vehicles are
less capable than all-wheel drive (AWD)
models for rough road driving and extrication
when stuck in deep snow or mud, or the like.Please observe the following precautions:
WARNING
•Spinning the front wheels on slippery
surfaces may cause the AWD warning
message to display and the AWD system
to automatically switch from the AWD
to 2WD mode. This could reduce the
traction. Be especially careful when
towing a trailer. (AWD models)
•Drive carefully when off the road and
avoid dangerous areas. Every person
who drives or rides in this vehicle should
be seated with their seat belt fastened.
This will keep you and your passengers
in position when driving over rough ter-
rain.
•Do not drive across steep slopes. Instead
drive either straight up or straight down
the slopes. Off-road vehicles can tip
over sideways much more easily than
they can forward or backward.
•Many hills are too steep for any vehicle.
If you drive up them, you may stall. If you
drive down them, you may not be able to
control your speed. If you drive across
them, you may roll over.
5-10Starting and driving

Steering wheel gearshift paddles
1Left steering wheel gearshift paddle
(shifts down)
2Right steering wheel gearshift paddle
(shifts up)
In drive program M, you can change gear
yourself using the steering wheel gearshift
paddles.
If you pull the left or right steering wheel
gearshift paddle when in automatic drive
program E or S, the automatic transmission
shifts into drive program M for a limited time.
Depending on which gearshift paddle is
pulled, the automatic transmission immedi-
ately shifts into the next gear down or up.
Automatic drive programs
Drive program E is characterized by the fol-
lowing:
•Comfort-oriented engine settings.
•Optimal fuel consumption resulting from
the automatic transmission shifting up
sooner.
•The vehicle pulling away more gently in
forward and reverse gears unless the ac-
celerator pedal is depressed fully.
•Increased sensitivity. This improves handling
on slippery road surfaces, for example.
•The automatic transmission shifting up
sooner. This results in the vehicle being
driven at lower engine speeds and the
wheels being less likely to spin.
Drive program S is characterized by the fol-
lowing:
•Sporty engine settings.
•The automatic transmission shifting up later.
•As a result of the later automatic transmis-
sion shift points, the fuel consumption
possibly being higher.
Manual drive program
In manual drive program M, you can change
gear yourself by using the steering wheel
gearshift paddles. For this, the transmission
must be in position D (Drive). The gear cur-
rently selected and engaged is shown in the
vehicle information display
Manual drive program M differs from drive
programs E and S with regard to spontaneity,
responsiveness and smoothness of gear
changes.
Using manual gears:
3 To use the engine's braking effect
2 To use the braking effect of the engine on
downhill gradients and for driving on steep
mountain roads, in mountainous terrain or
in arduous conditions.
1 To use the braking effect of the engine on
extremely steep downhill gradients and on
long downhill stretches.
