Timer Alert — Have a break?
This indicator appears when the set time is
reached. The time can be set up to six hours.
For additional information, see “Driver Assis-
tance” (P. 2-28).
Tire Pressure Low - Add Air
This warning appears when the low tire pres-
sure warning light in the meter illuminates
and low tire pressure is detected. The
warning appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long as
the low tire pressure warning light remains
illuminated. If this warning appears, stop the
vehicle and adjust the tire pressures of all four
tires to the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure shown on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion label. For additional information, see
“Low tire pressure warning light” (P. 2-18)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P. 5-5).
TPMS Error: See Owner’s Manual
This warning appears when there is an error
with your TPMS. If this warning appears,
have the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
Transmission Shift Position
indicator
This indicator shows the transmission shift
position.
When parked apply parking
brake
This message appears when a malfunction
occurs in the electric shift control system be-
low 6 mph (10 km/h).
Have the system checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
AWD Error: See Owner’s Manual
This warning appears when the Intelligent
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system is not func-
tioning properly while the engine is running.
Reduce vehicle speed and have your vehicle
checked by an INFINITI retailer as soon as
possible. For additional information, see “In-
telligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD)” (P. 5-161).
AWD High Temp. Stop Vehicle
This warning appears when the oil tempera-
ture of the powertrain parts will increase due
to the difference in rotation between the
front and rear wheels is large (wheel slip),
such as when driving the vehicle on rough
roads, through sand or mud, or freeing a
stuck vehicle. If this warning is displayed, stopthe vehicle with the engine idling, as soon as it
is safe to do so. In these cases, the AWD
changes to 2WD to protect the powertrain
parts. Then if the warning turns off, you can
continue AWD driving.
Tire Size Incorrect: See Owner’s Manual
This warning may appear if there is a large
difference between the diameters of the
front and rear wheels. Pull off the road in a
safe area, with the engine idling. Check that
all the tire sizes, brand, construction and
tread patterns are the same, that the tire
pressure is correct and that the tires are not
excessively worn. If you have any problems,
please change tires or adjust to the correct
tire pressure. Do not select the SNOW mode
with the INFINITI Drive Mode Selector and
do not drive fast. For additional information,
see “Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD)”
(P. 5-161).

Low tire pressure warning
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning indicator will illumi-
nate. A “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning also appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
When the low tire pressure warning indica-
tor appears, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all four tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label located in
the driver's door opening. The low tire pres-
sure warning indicator does not automati-
cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad-
justed. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning indicator. Use a tire pres-
sure gauge to check the tire pressure.
The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low
tire pressure warning indicator remains
illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle in-
formation display—12.3 inch (31 cm) Type B”
(P. 2-44), “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P. 5-5) or (P. 6-3).
TPMS malfunction
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning indicator will flash
for approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The indi-
cator will remain on after 1 minute. Have the
system checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. The
"Tire Pressure Low — Add Air" warning does
not appear if the low tire pressure warning
indicator appears to indicate a TPMS
malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P. 5-5) and “Tire
pressure” (P. 8-28).
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect elec-
tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
• If the indicator does not appear with the
ignition switch placed in the ON position,
have the vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. •
If the indicator appears while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may perma-
nently damage the tires and increase the
likelihood of tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death. Check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. Adjust the tire
pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure show on the Tire and Loading
Information label located in the driver’s
door opening to turn the low tire pres-
sure indicator off. If the indicator still ap-
pears while driving after adjusting the
tire pressure, a tire may be flat or the
TPMS may be malfunctioning. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a spare
tire as soon as possible. If no tire is flat
and all tires are properly inflated, have
the vehicle checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
Instruments and controls2-63
Page 166 of 636

•When using a wheel without the TPMS
such as the spare tire, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure indica-
tor will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The indicator will remain on after 1 min-
ute. Have your tires replaced and/or
TPMS system reset as soon as possible.
It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for these services.
• Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
• The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
• If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 mph (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
• Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the four wheels correctly.
Malfunction Indicator (MIL)
If this indicator appears steady or blinks while
the engine is running, it may indicate a poten-
tial emission control malfunction. The MIL may also come on steady if the
vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure
that the vehicle has at least 3 gallons (11.4
liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
indicator
should turn off if no other potential emission
control system malfunction exists.
If this indicator appears steady for 20 seconds
and then blinks for 10 seconds when the en-
gine is not running, it indicates that the vehicle
is not ready for an emission control system
inspection/maintenance test. For additional
information, see “Readiness for Inspection/
Maintenance (I/M) test” (P. 10-34).
Operation
The MIL will come on in one of two ways:
• MIL on steady — An emission control sys- tem malfunction has been detected. Have
the vehicle inspected. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. You do not need to have your ve-
hicle towed to the retailer.
• MIL blinking — An engine misfire has been detected which may damage the emission
control system. To reduce or avoid emis-
sion control system damage:– do not drive at speeds above 45 mph (72 km/h). – avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
– avoid steep uphill grades.
– if possible, reduce the amount of cargo
being hauled or towed.
The MIL may stop blinking and come on
steady. Have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. You do not need to have your
vehicle towed to the retailer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without hav-
ing the emission control system checked
and repaired as necessary could lead to
poor driveability, reduced fuel economy,
and possible damage to the emission con-
trol system.
Master warning indicator
When the ignition is in the ON position, the
master warning indicator appears with vari-
ous other warning messages.
For additional information, see “Vehicle in-
formation display–7 inch (18 cm) Type A”
(P. 2-22) or “Vehicle information display—
