warning lights INFINITI QX30 2019 Owner's Guide

WARNING
•Do not use the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came effective for opener models manu-
factured after April 1, 1982). A garage
door opener which cannot detect an ob-
ject in the path of a closing garage door
and then automatically stop and re-
verse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death.
•During the programming procedure
your garage door or security gate will
open and close (if the transmitter is
within range). Make sure that people or
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.
•Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver.NOTE
Certain garage door drives are incompatible
with the integrated garage door opener.
If you have difficulty programing the inte-
grated garage door opener, it is recom-
mended you contact your INFINITI retailer.

midification function is activated.
SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER
WARNING
The air conditioner system contains refrig-
erant under high pressure. To avoid per-
sonal injury, any air conditioner service
should be done only by an experienced
technician with the proper equipment.
The air conditioner system in your vehicle is
charged with a refrigerant designed with the
environment in mind.
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are
required when servicing your vehicle’s air
conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe damage to the air
conditioner system. (See "Air conditioner sys-
tem refrigerant and oil recommendations".)
An INFINITI retailer will be able to service
your environmentally friendly air conditioner
system.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioner system is equipped with
an air conditioner filter. To make sure the air
conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates ef-
ficiently, replace the filter in accordance with
the specified maintenance intervals listed in
the separate maintenance booklet. It is rec-
ommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog up
easily when operating the heater or air con-
ditioner.
4-38Display screen, heater and air conditioner, and audio system

can be driven on a flat tire depends on
outside temperature, vehicle load,
road conditions and other factors.
–If you detect any unusual sounds or
vibrations while driving with a punc-
tured run-flat tire, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. The tire may be se-
riously damaged and need to be re-
placed.
•Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
•If you used Emergency Tire Sealant to
repair a minor tire puncture, the TPMS
sensor should be checked when repair-
ing or replacing the tire (for models
equipped with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit). It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
•INFINITI recommends using only
INFINITI Genuine Emergency Tire Seal-
ant provided with your vehicle. Other
tire sealants may damage the valve stem
seal which can cause the tire to lose air
pressure (for models equipped with the
emergency tire puncture repair kit).
CAUTION
•The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with
snow chains or the wheels are buried in
snow.
•Do not place metallized film or any metal
parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows.
This may cause poor reception of the
signals from the tire pressure sensors,
and the TPMS will not function
properly.
It is the driver's responsibility to set the tire
pressure to the recommended cold tire pres-
sure suitable for the operating situation (see
"Wheels and tires"). Note that the correct tire
pressure for the current operating situation
must first be taught-in to the tire pressure
monitor (see "Restarting TPMS" later in this
section).
If there is a substantial loss of pressure, the
warning threshold for the warning message
is aligned to the reference values taught-in.
Restart the tire pressure monitor after ad-
justing to the cold tire pressure. The current
pressures are saved as new reference values.
This will ensure that a warning message will
only appear if the tire pressure drops signifi-
cantly.The tire pressure monitor does not warn you
of an incorrectly set tire pressure.
TPMS is not able to warn you of a sudden
loss of pressure, e. g. if the tire is penetrated
by a foreign object. In the event of a sudden
loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a halt by
braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering ma-
neuvers.
TPMS has a yellow warning light in the com-
bination meter for indicating a pressure loss
or malfunction. Depending on how the warn-
ing light flashes or lights up, a tire pressure
that is too low or a malfunction in TPMS is
indicated:
•If the warning light is lit continuously, the
tire pressure on one or more tires is signifi-
cantly too low. TPMS is not malfunction-
ing.
•If the warning light flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the
TPMS is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning light, a message
appears in the vehicle information display.
Observe the information on display mes-
sages (see "Safety systems"
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunc-
tion of the tire pressure monitor to be indi-
cated. A malfunction will be indicated by 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

WARNING
•Be sure the parking brake is fully re-
leased before driving. Failure to do so
can cause brake failure and lead to an
accident.
•Do not release the parking brake from
outside the vehicle.
•Do not use the shift lever in place of the
parking brake. When parking, be sure
the parking brake is fully engaged.
•To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others, or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or death
to people and pets.The function of the electric parking brake is
dependent on the on-board voltage. If the
on-board voltage is low or if there is a mal-
function in the system, it may not be possible
to apply the released parking brake. If this is
the case:
•Only park the vehicle on level ground and
secure it to prevent it from rolling away.
•Shift the automatic transmission to posi-
tion P (Park).
•It is recommended you contact an INFINITI
retailer.
It may not be possible to release an applied
parking brake if the on-board voltage is low
or if there is a malfunction in the system. It is
recommended you contact an INFINITI re-
tailer.
The electric parking brake carries out a func-
tion check at regular intervals when the en-
gine is switched off. Noises that occur are
normal.

PARKING BRAKE
Starting and driving5-27

Before driving, check that the brake warning
lightgoes out. For additional informa-
tion, see "Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders".
The electric parking brake can only be re-
leased when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
APPLYING AUTOMATICALLY
(VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION)
The electric parking brake is automatically ap-
plied if Intelligent Parking Assist (if equipped) is
keeping the vehicle stationary.
The redindicator light lights up in the
combination meter.
The electric parking brake is not automati-
cally applied if the engine is switched off by
the Idle Stop/Start function.
RELEASING AUTOMATICALLY
The electric parking brake can only be re-
leased automatically in vehicles with auto-
matic transmission.
The electric parking brake of your vehicle is
released automatically when all of the fol-
lowing conditions are fulfilled:
•The engine is running.
•The transmission is in position D (Drive) or
R (Reverse).
•The seat belt is fastened.
•You depress the accelerator pedal.
If the transmission is in position R, the lift
gate must be closed.
If your seat belt is not fastened, the following
conditions must be fulfilled to automatically
release the electric parking brake:
•The driver's door is closed
•You have shifted out of transmission posi-
tion P (Park) or you have previously driven
faster than 2 MPH (3 km/h).
Ensure that you do not depress the accelera-
tor pedal unintentionally. Otherwise, the
parking brake will be released and the vehicle
will start to move.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
The vehicle can also be braked during an emer-
gency by using the electric parking brake.
While driving, push handle1of the electric
parking brake. The vehicle is braked as long as
you keep handle
1of the electric parking
brake pressed. The longer the electric parking
brake handle
1is depressed, the greater the
braking force.
During braking:
•A warning tone sounds.
•The [Please Release Parking Brake] mes-
sage appears.
•The redindicator light in the combi-
nation meter flashes.
When the vehicle has been braked to a stand-
still, the electric parking brake is applied.

Illustration 2:If the turn signal is then acti-
vated, the system chimes (twice) and the
BSW indicator light flashes. The BSW indica-
tor light continues to flash until the detected
vehicles leave the detection zone.
NOTE
•The BSW indicator lights illuminate for a
few seconds when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
•The brightness of the BSW indicator
lights is adjusted automatically depend-
ing on the brightness of the ambient light.
•If a vehicle comes into the detection zone
after the driver activates the turn signal,
then only the BSW indicator light flashes
and no chime sounds. (See "Another ve-
hicle approaching from behind" later in
this section.)
A chime sounds if the radar sensors have
already detected vehicles when the driver ac-
tivates the turn signal.
WARNING
•Do not use the BSW system when tow-
ing a trailer because the system may not
function properly.
•Excessive noise (for example audio sys-
tem volume, open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
•The radar sensors may not be able to
detect and activate BSW when certain
objects are present such as:
–Pedestrians, bicycles, animals
–Several types of vehicles such as mo-
torcycles
–Oncoming vehicles
–Vehicles remaining in the detection
zone when you accelerate from a
stop.–A vehicle merging into an adjacent
lane at a speed approximately the
same as your vehicle.
–A vehicle approaching rapidly from
behind.
–A vehicle which your vehicle over-
takes rapidly.
•Severe weather or road spray conditions
may reduce the ability of the radar to
detect other vehicles.
•The radar sensors detection zone is de-
signed based on a standard lane width.
When driving in a wider lane, the radar
sensors may not detect vehicles in an
adjacent lane. When driving in a narrow
lane, the radar sensors may detect ve-
hicles driving two lanes away.
•The radar sensors are designed to ignore
most stationary objects, however ob-
jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage
and parked vehicles may occasionally be
detected. This is a normal operating
condition.

The FEB system can help you to minimize the
risk of a collision with the vehicle in front or
reduce the effects of such a collision
If the FEB system detects that there is a risk
of a collision, you will be warned visually and
audibly. If you do not react to the visual and
audible collision warning, autonomous brak-
ing can be initiated in critical situations. If you
apply the brake yourself in a critical situation,
the adaptive brake assist function assists
you.
Distance warning function
The distance warning function can help you
to minimize the risk of a collision with the
vehicle in front or reduce the effects of such a
collision. If the distance warning function de-
tects that there is a risk of a collision, you will
be warned visually and audibly.
The distance warning function issues a warn-
ing at speeds:
•Of approximately 20 MPH (30 km/h) or
more, if, over several seconds the distance
maintained to the vehicle traveling in front
is insufficient. The distance warning light
then lights up in the combination meter.
•Of approximately 4 MPH (7 km/h) or
more, if you rapidly approach a vehicle in
front. An intermittent warning tone will
then sound and the distance warning light
will light up in the combination meter.
If a warning is issued:
•Brake immediately in order to increase the
distance from the vehicle in front.
or
•Take evasive action provided it is safe to
do so.
WARNING
Due to the nature of the system, particu-
larly complicated but non-critical driving
conditions may also cause the system to
display a warning.
Up to a speed of approximately 45 MPH
(70 km/h), the distance warning function can
also react to stationary (stopped or parked)
vehicles.
If you approach a stationary vehicle and the
distance warning function detects a risk of a
collision, the system will alert you both visu-
ally and acoustically.
