4WD Warning Lamp
 Turns ON when there is a malfunction in 4WD system. 4W
D warning lamp indicates the vehicle is in fail-safe
mode.
 Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, fo r the purpose of lamp check. Turns OFF approximately
for 1 second after the engine starts if system is normal.
ATP Warning Lamp
When the A/T shift selector is in P position, the vehicle may move if the transfer case in neutral. ATP warning
lamp is turned on to indicate this condition to the driver.
CONDITION FOR OPERATE WARNING BUZZER
For preventing an incorrect operation during 4H ⇔4L switching, warning buzzer sounds from inside of transfer
control unit and warns the driver, when certain conditions are satisfied.
4WD SYSTEM : Fail-SafeINFOID:0000000006303692
 If any malfunction occurs in 4WD electrical system, and control unit detects the malfunction, 4WD warning
lamp on combination meter turns ON to indicate system malfunction.
 When 4WD warning lamp is ON, vehicle changes to rear-wheel drive or shifts to 4-wheel drive (front-wheels
still have some driving torque).
Condition 4WD warning lamp
Lamp check Turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON. Turns OFF ap-
prox. 1 second after the engine start.
4WD system malfunction ON

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Explanation of General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000006287728
General maintenance includes those items which shoul d be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform
checks and inspections themselves or have their INFINITI dealers do them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed fr om time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
Item Reference page
Tires Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear. WT-69
Wheel nuts
When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any
loose nuts. Tighten if necessary. —
Tire rotation Tires should be rotated every 12,000km (7,500 miles). If the vehicle is equipped
with different sized tires in the front and rear, tires cannot be rotated. WT-63
Tire Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS)
transmitter compo-
nentsReplace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap when the tires
are replaced due to wear or age.
WT-66
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road,
or if you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel
alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds,
wheel balancing may be needed. FSU-7
RSU-6
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary. —
Windshield wiper
blades Check for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly. —
Doors and engine
hood Check that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the back
door. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make
sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary
latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lubri-
cation frequently. MA-34
Lamps
Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and
other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check head-
lamp aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. —
Item
Reference page
Warning lamps and
chimes Make sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Windshield wiper and
washer Check that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak.
—
Windshield defroster Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner. —
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play. Check for changes in the steering condi-
tion, such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in) —

PRE-CRASH SEAT BELT SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006237878
 Pre-crash seat belt system integrates control unit and motor in driver and passenger seat belt retractors.
 Provides a sense of ease when pre-crash seat belt c ontrol unit judges the emergency braking operation, the
intelligent brake assistance operating status, the c ontinuous ABS operating status, the emergency steering
wheel operation, the excessive vehicle inclination stat us, or the lateral slippage status during cornering.
The motor immediately retracts the seat belt and suppresses change in occupant posture.
 Even in a situation where a collision is unavoidable, effe cts of other safety devices, like the air bag, are max-
imized and damages are reduced.
 Motor retracts seat belt when unfastening and extrac ts seat belt when fastening to reduce the feeling of
pressure. (comfort function)
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Pre-crash seat belt system operat es under the following conditions.
 During emergency brake operation
 When ABS continuously operates
 When intelligent brake assistance operates
 When lateral slippage during cornering occurs
 When steering wheel is rotated for emergency
