[Front Passenger Airbag
Disabled See Operator's
Manual] The front-passenger front air bag is disabled during the journey although an adult or person of corresponding stature is on the front
passenger seat.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are properly seated and using the seat belt as outlined in this manual should not cause
the front passenger air bag to be automatically turned OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF, however if the occupant takes
his/her weight off the seat cushion (for example, by not sitting upright, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out
of position), this could cause the sensor to turn the air bag OFF. Always be sure to be seated and wearing the seat belt properly for
the most effective protection by the seat belt and supplemental air bag.
If additional forces are applied to the seat, the system may interpret the occupant's weight as lower than it actually is.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe area away from traffic as soon as possible, paying attention to road and traffic conditions.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
3. Switch the ignition off.
4. Have the occupant on the front-passenger seat step out of the vehicle.
5. Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front passenger door and switch on the ignition.
6. Observe the indicator lights in the center console and the vehicle information display and check the
following. Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
- The and indicator lights must light up simultaneously for
approximately six seconds.
- The indicator lights must then light up and remain lit. If the indicator light is on, the automatic
front-passenger front air bag deactivation system has disabled the front-passenger front air bag (see "Front passenger air bag
and status light" in the "1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system" section)
- the [Front Passenger Airbag Enabled See Operator's Manual] or [Front Passenger Airbag Disabled See Operator's Manual]
display messages must not be shown in the vehicle information display.
7. Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system checks have been completed.
8. Make sure that the display messages do not appear in the vehicle information display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied again. Whether the or
indicator light remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front passenger front air bag deactivation system classifies the
occupant.
If, after taking the steps above, you still believe the system is not operating properly, have it checked immediately. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
For further information on the automatic front-passenger front air bag deactivation feature (see "Front passenger air bag and status
light" in the "1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system" section).

The windshield wiper and washer operate

Rain sensor (if equipped)
The rain-sensing auto wiper system uses the
rain sensor located on the upper part of the
windshield
1.
CAUTION
•Do not touch the rain sensor and around
it
1when the wiper switch is in the
orposition and the ignition
switch is in the ON position. The wipers
may operate unexpectedly and cause an
injury or may damage a wiper.
•The rain-sensing auto wipers are in-
tended for use during rain. If the switch
is left in the
orposition, the
wipers may operate unexpectedly when
dirt, fingerprints, oil film or insects are
stuck on or around the sensor. The wip- ers may also operate when exhaust gas
or moisture affect the rain sensor.
•When the windshield glass is coated
with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be higher
even though the amount of the rainfall is
small.
•Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing auto
wiper system when you use a car wash.
•The rain-sensing auto wipers may not
operate if rain does not hit the rain sen-
sor even if it is raining.
•Using genuine wiper blades is recom-
mended for proper operation of the
rain-sensing auto wiper system. For ad-
ditional information, refer to "Wiper
blades" in the "8. Do-it-yourself" sec-
tion.
•Vehicles with a rain sensor: if the wind-
shield becomes dirty in dry weather con-
ditions, the windshield wipers may be
activated inadvertently. This could
damage the windshield wiper blades or
scratch the windshield.
For this reason, you should always
switch off the windshield wipers in dry
weather.

Vehicles with a rain sensor: in theor
position, the appropriate wiping fre-
quency is automatically set according to the
intensity of the rain. In the
position, the
rain sensor is more sensitive than in the
position, causing the windshield wiper
to wipe more frequently.
If the wiper blades are worn, the windshield
will no longer be wiped properly. This could
prevent you from observing the traffic condi-
tions.

WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solu-

defroster before you wash the windshield.
CAUTION
•Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
•Do not operate the washer if the win-
dow washer fluid reservoir is empty.
•Do not fill the window washer reservoir
tank with washer fluid concentrates at full strength. Some methyl alcohol
based washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if spilled
while filling the window washer reser-
voir tank.
•Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’s recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the window washer reservoir tank.
Do not use the window washer reservoir
tank to mix the washer fluid concentrate
and water.
