.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.
Master warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the master warning light illumi-
nates if any of the following are displayed
on the dot matrix liquid crystal display:
.No key warning
. Low fuel warning
. Low washer fluid warning
. Parking brake release warning
. Door/lift gate open warning .
Loose fuel cap warning
. Check tire pressure warning

in this section.
Preview Function warning light
(orange; if so equipped)
The light comes on if there is a malfunction
in the Brake Assist (with Preview Function)
system.
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, then resume driving.
If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the
system is malfunctioning. Although the

chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten
seat belts. The light illuminates whenever
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, and will remain illuminated until
the driver’s seat belt is fastened. At the
same time, the chime will sound for about
6 seconds unless the driver’s seat belt is
securely fastened.
The seat belt warning light for the front
passenger will illuminate if the seat belt is
not fastened when the front passenger’s
seat is occupied. For approximately 5
seconds after the ignition switch is in the
ON position, the system does not activate
the warning light for the front passenger.
See “Seat belts” in the“1. Safety —seats,
seat belts and supplemental restraint
system” section for precautions on seat
belt usage.

This warning appears when the vehicle
speed is above 4 MPH (7 km/h) and the
parking brake is applied.
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 0 (Empty) position.
There is a small reserve of fuel remaining
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches
the 0 (Empty) position.
10. Low washer fluid warning

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. 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 ”in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.)
13. 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” earlier in this section and
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)”
in the “5. Starting and driving” section.)
14. Extended storage fuse warning
(if so equipped)
This warning may appear if the extended
storage fuse switch is not pushed in (switched on). When this warning appears,
push in (switch on) the extended storage
fuse switch to turn off the warning. For
more information, see

WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solu-
tion may freeze on the window and obscure
your vision which may lead to an accident.
Warm the window with the defroster before

CAUTION
.Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
. Do not operate the washer if the
reservoir tank is empty.
. Do not fill the window washer reservoir
tank with washer fluid concentrates at
full strength. Some methyl alcohol
based washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if spilled
while filling the window washer reser-
voir tank.
. Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’ s recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the window washer reservoir tank.
Do not use the window washer reservoir tank to mix the washer fluid concentrate
and water.
If the windshield wiper operation is inter-
rupted by snow or ice, the wiper may stop

WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER SWITCH

WASHER OPERATION
To operate the washer, pull the lever
toward the back of the vehicle
*5until
the desired amount of washer fluid is
spread on the windshield. The wiper will
automatically operate several times.
The headlight washer (if so equipped) will
also operate with operation of the wind-

SIC4258
RAIN-SENSING AUTO WIPER SYS-
TEM
The rain-sensing auto wiper system can
automatically turn on the wipers and
adjust the wiper speed depending on the
rainfall and the vehicle speed by using the
rain sensor located on the upper part of
the windshield.
To set the rain-sensing auto wiper system,
push the lever down to the AUTO position
*1. The wiper will sweep once while the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
The rain sensor sensitivity level can be
adjusted by turning the knob toward the front
*2(High) or toward the rear*3
(Low).
.
High —High sensitive operation
. Low —Low sensitive operation
To turn the rain-sensing auto wiper system
off, push up the lever to the OFF position,
or pull down the lever to the LO or HI
position.
CAUTION
Do not touch the rain sensor and around it
when the wiper switch is in the AUTO
position and the ignition switch is in the
ON position. The wipers may operate un-
expectedly and cause to an injury or a wiper
damage.
. The rain-sensing auto wipers are in-
tended for use during rain. If the switch
is left in the AUTO position, the wipers
may operate unexpectedly when dirt,
fingerprints, oil film or insects are
stuck on or around the sensor. The
wipers may also operate when exhaust
gas or moisture affect the rain sensor.
. The rain-sensing auto wipers may not
operate if rain does not hit the rain

sensor even if it is raining.
. When the windshield glass is coated
with water repellent, the speed of the
rain-sensing auto wipers may be high-
er even though the amount of the
rainfall is small.
. Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing
auto wiper system when you use a car
wash.
. Using genuine wiper blades is recom-
mended for proper operation of the
rain-sensing auto wiper system. (See
“Windshield wiper blades” in the“8.
Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion for wiper blade replacement.)WARNING
In freezing temperatures the washer solu-
tion may freeze on the rear window glass
and obscure your vision. Warm the rear
window with the defroster before you wash
the rear window.
CAUTION
. Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
. Do not operate the washer if the
reservoir tank is empty.
. Do not fill the window washer reservoir
tank with washer fluid concentrates at
full strength. Some methyl alcohol
based washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if spilled
while filling the window washer reser-
voir tank.
. Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’ s recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the window washer reservoir tank.
Do not use the window washer reservoir tank to mix the washer fluid concentrate
and water.
If the rear window wiper operation is
interrupted by snow etc., the wiper may
stop moving to protect its motor. If this
occurs, turn the wiper switch to OFF and
remove the snow etc. on and around the
wiper arms. After about 1 minute, turn the

proper axis automatically, depending on
the number of occupants in the vehicle, the
load the vehicle is carrying and the road
conditions.
If the AFS OFF indicator light blinks after
the ignition switch has been pushed to the
