• Keep your engine tuned up.
• Follow the recommended scheduledmaintenance.
• Keep the tires inflated to the correct pres- sure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
• Keep all the wheels in correct alignment. Improper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
• Use the recommended viscosity engine oil. For additional information, see “Engine oil
and oil filter recommendations” (P. 10-6).
If any malfunction occurs in the Intelligent
AWD system while the engine is running,
messages are displayed in the meter.
If the AWD error warning message is dis-
played, there may be a malfunction in the
Intelligent AWD system. Reduce vehicle
speed and have your vehicle checked as soon
as possible. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. The AWD high temperature message may be
displayed when the oil temperature of the
powertrain parts increases due to the differ-
ence in rotation between the front and rear
wheels is large (wheel slip), such as when
driving on rough roads, driving through sand
or mud, or feeling a stuck vehicle. If this
warning is displayed, stop the 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.

Floor mat installation for 3rd row
seats
When installing Genuine INFINITI floor mats
in the 3rd row seating positions:
1. Position the floor mat in the floorwell sothat the floor mat’s installation tabs are
aligned with the rearmost part of 2nd row
seat tracks.
2. Insert the floor mat installation tabs
OAunderneath the 2nd row seat tracksOBand ensure that the floor mat is properly
positioned. It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for details about installing the floor
mats in your vehicle.
SEAT BELTS
The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping them
with a sponge dampened in a mild soap solu-
tion. Allow the belts to dry completely in the
shade before using them. For additional in-
formation, see “Seat belt maintenance”
(P. 1-25).
WARNING
Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in the
retractor. NEVER use bleach, dye or
chemical solvents to clean the seat belts,
since these materials may severely weaken
the seat belt webbing.
CLEANING THE SEAT TRACKS
CAUTION
Periodically clean the seat tracks to pre-
vent reduction of ability to move the seats.
Clean periodically with a high-powered
vacuum cleaner. Dirt and debris may reduce
the ability to adjust the seat. A wet cleansing
agent may be used if necessary.
MOST COMMON FACTORS
CONTRIBUTING TO VEHICLE
CORROSION
Most vehicle corrosion is caused by:
• The accumulation of moisture-retaining dirt and debris in body panel sections, cavi-
ties, and other areas.
• Damage to paint and other protective coatings caused by gravel and stone chips
or minor traffic collisions.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
INFLUENCE THE RATE OF
CORROSION
Moisture
Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on the
vehicle body underside can accelerate corro-
sion. Wet floor coverings will not dry com-
pletely inside the vehicle and should be re-
moved for drying to avoid floor panel
corrosion.
Relative humidity
Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of high
relative humidity, especially those areas
where the temperatures stay above freezing
and where atmospheric pollution exists and
road salt is used.
