FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during
braking, turning, acceleration, or going up
or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to E (Empty) after
the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “E”(Empty).
The low fuel warning
appears on the
dot matrix liquid crystal display when the
fuel level in the tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient, preferably
before the gauge reaches
“E”. There will be
a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the
fuel gauge needle reaches “E”.
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the passenger’s side of the
vehicle.
CAUTION
. If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL) may
come on. Refuel as soon as possible.
After a few driving trips, the
light
should turn off. If the light remains on
after a few driving trips, have the vehicle
inspected by an INFINITI retailer.
. For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P.2-20).
METER/RING ILLUMINATION AND
NEEDLE SWEEP
The ring illumination surrounding meters
and gauges illuminates when the driver’s
door is closed after getting into the vehicle
with the Intelligent Key carried in.
When the engine is started, the indicator needles will sweep in the speedometer and
tachometer and the ring illumination will
be brightened gradually. This function can
be turned off. (See
“Trip computer”(P.2-
29).)

9. Low fuel warning
This warning appears when the fuel level in
the tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it
is convenient, preferably before the fuel
gauge reaches the empty (E) position.
There is a small reserve of fuel remaining
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches
the empty (E) position.
10. Low washer fluid warning
This warning appears when the washer
tank fluid is at a low level. Add washer fluid
as necessary. (See“Window washer fluid”
(P.8-16).)
11. Door/lift gate open warning
(ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion)
This warning appears if any of the doors
and/or the lift gate are open or not closed
securely. The vehicle icon indicates which
door or the lift gate is open on the display.
12. “Time to rest” indicator
This indicator appears when the set “time
to rest” indicator activates. You can set the
time for up to 6 hours. (See “Trip
computer” (P.2-29).)
13. Loose fuel cap warning
This warning appears when the fuel-filler
cap is not tightened correctly after the
vehicle has been refueled. (See “Fuel-filler
cap ”(P.3-24).)
14. Check tire pressure warning
This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates 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 ap-
pears, stop the vehicle and adjust the tire
pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label. (See “Low tire pressure
warning light” (P.2-16) and“Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-4).)
15. Low outside temperature warn-
ing
This warning appears if the outside tem-
perature is below 378F(38C). The warning
can be set not to be displayed. (See “Trip
computer” (P.2-29).)
16. Cruise indicator (if so equipped)
Cruise main switch indicator:
The indicator is displayed when the cruise
control main switch is pushed. When the
main switch is pushed again, the indicator
disappears. When the cruise control main
switch indicator is displayed, the cruise
control system is operational.
Cruise set switch indicator:
The indicator is displayed while the vehicle
speed is controlled by the cruise control
system. If the indicator blinks while the
engine is running, it may indicate that the
cruise control system is not functioning

While the main switch indicator is dis-
played, the ICC system is operational. The
cruise control set indicator (SET) is dis-

played while the vehicle is controlled by
the conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-
trol mode of the ICC system. (See“Intelli-
gent Cruise Control (ICC) system (FULL
SPEED RANGE)” (P.5-32).)
18. Distance Control Assist (DCA)
system switch indicator (if so
equipped)
The indicator is displayed when the Dis-
tance Control Assist (DCA) system switch is
pushed on. When the switch is pushed
again, the indicator disappears. While the
indicator is displayed, the DCA system is
operational. (See “Distance Control Assist
(DCA) system” (P.5-54).)

INDICATORS FOR MAINTENANCE
1. Engine oil replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for changing the engine oil.
You can set or reset the distance for
changing the engine oil. (See “Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-29).)
2. Oil filter replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing the oil filter.
You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-29).)
3. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer
set distance comes for replacing tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
tires. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-29).)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, including
tire pressure checks. See “Changing wheels
and tires” (P.8-39). Many factors including
tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and
Instruments and controls2-27

2-28Instruments and controls
road conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the tire
replacement indicator for a certain driving
distance does not mean your tires will last
that long. Use the tire replacement indicator
as a guide only and always perform regular
tire checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to a collision,
which could result in serious personal injury
or death.
4.“OTHER” indicator
This indicator appears when the set time
comes for replacing items other than the
engine oil, oil filter and tires. You can set or
reset the distance for replacing the items.
(See“Trip computer” (P.2-29).)
More maintenance reminders are also
available on the center display. (See
“How to use INFO button” (P.4-9).)

Each time the
switch*Ais pushed, the
display will change as follows:
Current fuel consumption ?Average fuel consumption and speed
?Elapsed time
and trip odometer ?Distance to empty
(dte) ?Outside air temperature (ICY) ?
Setting ?Warning check
1. Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption mode shows
the current fuel consumption.
2. Average fuel consumption (MPG
or l (liter)/100 km) and speed (MPH
or km/h)
Fuel consumption:
The average fuel consumption mode shows
the average fuel consumption since the
last reset. Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second.
(The average speed is also reset at the
same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
At about the first 1/3 mile (500 m) after a
reset, the display shows “——”.
Speed:
The average speed mode shows the
average vehicle speed since the last reset.
Resetting is done by pushing the
switch*Bfor longer than 1 second.
(The average fuel consumption is also reset at the same time.)
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The first 30 seconds after a reset, the
display shows
“——”.
3. Elapsed time and trip odometer
(mls or km)
Elapsed time:
The elapsed time mode shows the time
since the last reset. The displayed time can
be reset by pushing the
switch*Bfor
longer than 1 second. (The trip odometer is
also reset at the same time.)
Trip odometer:
The trip odometer mode shows the total
distance the vehicle has been driven since
the last reset. Resetting is done by pushing
the
switch*Bfor longer than 1
second. (The elapsed time is also reset at
the same time.)
4. Distance to empty (dte —mls or
km)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides
you with an estimation of the distance that
can be driven before refueling. The dte is
constantly being calculated, based on the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the
