CAUTION
. For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-
pened with water. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or any
kind of solvent or paper towel with a
chemical cleaning agent. They will
scratch or cause discoloration to the
lens.
. Do not spray any liquid such as water
on the meter lens. Spraying liquid
may cause the system to malfunction.
METERS AND GAUGES

SIC4374
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 0 (Empty) after
the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “0” (Empty).
The low fuel warning
appears on the
vehicle information display when the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the gauge reaches “0”. There will be a small reserve of
fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle
reaches “0”.
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the driver’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. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
. For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P.2-
19).SIC4375
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine lubrication
system oil pressure while the engine is
running. When the engine speed is high, the
engine oil pressure is also high. When it is
low, the gauge indicates the low (L) oil
pressure.
The engine oil pressure is normal when the
gauge needle points within the zone
shown in the illustration.
CAUTION
.This gauge is not designed to indicate
low engine oil level. Use the dipstick
Instruments and controls2-9

2-10Instruments and controls
to check the oil level. (See “Engine oil”
(P.8-6).)
. If the gauge needle does not move
with the proper amount of engine oil,
have the vehicle checked. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service. Continued vehicle
operation in such a condition could
cause serious damage to the engine.
SIC4376
VOLTMETER
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the volt meter indicates the
battery voltage. When the engine is running,
it indicates the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volt drop
below the normal range. If the needle is not
in the normal range (10.5 to 15.5 volt) while
the engine is running, it may indicate that the
charging system is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
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.2-28).)

service.
Some indicators and warnings are also
displayed on the vehicle information display
between the speedometer and tachometer.
(See “Vehicle information display” (P.2-21).)
WARNING LIGHTS
orAnti-lock Braking
System (ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminates and then
turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock
assistance. (See “Brake system” (P.5-131).)
Automatic transmission check
warning light
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the light comes on for 2
seconds. If the light comes on at any other
time, it may indicate the transmission is not
functioning properly. It is recommend you
visit an INFINITI retailer to check and repair
the transmission.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
oil temperature warning light
This light illuminates when the Automatic
Transmission (AT) oil temperature is too
high. If the light illuminates while driving,
reduce the vehicle speed as soon as safely
possible until the light turns off.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when the
AT oil temperature warning light is on
may damage the AT.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
park warning light (4WD models)
This light indicates that the Automatic
Transmission (AT) parking function is not
engaged. If the transfer control is not
secured in any driving position while the AT
shift lever is in the P (Park) position, the
transmission will disengage and the wheels
will not lock.
If the AT park warning light illuminates with
the shift lever in the P (Park) position, shift
the Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) shift switch
to the AUTO, 4H or 4L position again with

Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging system
is not functioning properly. Turn the engine
off and check the alternator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken, missing or if the light remains
on, have your vehicle serviced immediately. It
is recommended you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Distance Control Assist (DCA)
system warning light (orange; if so
equipped)

in the Distance Control Assist (DCA) system.
If the warning light illuminates, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and turn
on the DCA system again.
If it is not possible to turn on the system or
the warning light stays on, it may indicate
that the system is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, have the vehicle checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
See “Distance Control Assist (DCA)” (P.5-
87).
Engine oil pressure warning
light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If
the light flickers or comes on during normal
driving, pull off the road in a safe area, stop
the engine immediately and call an INFINITI
retailer or other authorized repair shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level. Use the
dipstick to check the oil level. (See “Engine
oil” (P.8-6).)
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD)
warning light (4WD models)
Thewarning light comes on when the
ignition switch is pushed to ON. It turns off
soon after the engine is started.
If the 4WD system malfunctions, or the
diameter of the front and the rear wheels are
different, the warning light will either remain
illuminated or blink. (See “INFINITI all-mode
4WD
®” (P.5-120).)
CAUTION
. If the warning light comes on while
driving there may be a malfunction in
the 4WD system. Reduce the vehicle
speed and have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
. If the 4WD warning light turns on
when driving on dry or hard surfaced
roads:
— in the 4H(I) position, shift the 4WD shift switch to AUTO
— in the 4L(O) position, stop the vehicle and shift the transmission
shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position and shift the 4WD shift
