LIFTGATE RELEASE
WARNING
∙ Always be sure the liftgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.
∙ Do not drive with the liftgate open. This could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. For additional
information, refer to “Exhaust gas (car-
bon monoxide)” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual.
∙ To avoid personal injury, do not attempt to activate the power liftgate if one or
both of the liftgate struts are removed.
CAUTION
∙ If the power liftgate does not stay openor if the liftgate unexpectedly closes at
any time while a continuous warning
chime sounds, do not operate the lift-
gate. There may be a pressure loss in one
or both of the liftgate struts. It is recom-
mended that you have the liftgate in-
spected. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
∙ Do not activate the power liftgate if one or both of the liftgate struts are re-
moved. Damage to the liftgate or power
liftgate mechanisms may occur.
∙ Keep the power liftgate main switch (if so equipped) in the OFF position when
washing or working around the back of
the vehicle (with Intelligent Key) to pre-
vent inadvertent opening/closing.

FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
∙ Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain conditions.
You could be burned or seriously injured if
it is misused or mishandled. Always stop
the engine and do not smoke or allow
open flames or sparks near the vehicle
when refueling.
∙ Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off au-
tomatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
∙
Use only an original equipment type fuel-
filler cap as a replacement. It has a built-in
safety valve needed for proper operation of
the fuel system and emission control sys-
tem. An incorrect cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It could
also cause the
Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) to come on.
∙ Never pour fuel into the throttle body to attempt to start your vehicle.
∙ Do not fill a portable fuel container in the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity can
cause an explosion of flammable liquid,
vapor or gas in any vehicle or trailer. To
reduce the risk of serious injury or death
when filling portable fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel con- tainers for flammable liquid.CAUTION
∙ If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flushit away with water to avoid paint
damage.
∙ Insert the fuel-filler cap straight into the fuel-filler tube, then tighten until the
fuel-filler cap clicks. Failure to tighten
the fuel-filler cap properly may cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to illuminate. If the
light illu-
minates because the fuel-filler cap is
loose or missing, tighten or install the cap
and continue to drive the vehicle.
The
light should turn off after a
few driving trips. If the
light does
not turn off after a few driving trips, have
the vehicle inspected. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
∙ For additional information, refer to “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.
3-30Pre-driving checks and adjustments

To remove the fuel-filler cap:1. Turn the fuel-filler cap counterclockwise to remove.
2.
Put the fuel-filler cap on the cap holder1
while refueling.
To install the fuel-filler cap: 1. Insert the fuel-filler cap straight into the fuel-filler tube.
2. Turn the fuel-filler cap clockwise until clicks are heard.
WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel whiledriving. You could lose control of your ve-
hicle and cause an accident.
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer to you than is necessary for proper
steering operation and comfort. The
driver’s air bag inflates with great force.
If you are unrestrained, leaning forward,
sitting sideways or out of position in any
way, you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also receive
serious or fatal injuries from the air bag if
you are up against it when it inflates. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback and as
far away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.
TILT AND TELESCOPIC
OPERATION
To adjust the steering wheel move the switch1
in the following directions:
∙ Adjust the steering wheel up or down in direction
2to the desired tilt position.
∙ Adjust the steering wheel forward or backward in direction
3to the desired
telescopic position.

STEERING WHEEL
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-31

CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and telescop-
ing functions of the steering wheel, after
the vehicle’s battery has been discharged,
may prevent the steering wheel position
from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner:
Both the tilt and telescopic steering opera-
tion must be reset after the vehicle’s battery
has been discharged in order to prevent the
tilt and telescopic operation from locking in
one position. When the battery has been re-
charged or replaced, perform the following: ∙ For tilt operation: Adjust the switch
1so
the steering wheel moves to the highest
position
2that can be reached.
∙ For telescopic operation: Adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to
the most forward and backward position
3that can be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range
of the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic
function.
Entry/Exit function
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up automati-
cally when the driver’s door is opened and the
ignition switch is in the LOCK position. This
lets the driver get into and out of the seat
more easily. The steering wheel moves back
into position when the driver’s door is closed
and the ignition switch is pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Auto-
matic drive positioner” in this section.
