Loose Fuel Cap warning
The Loose Fuel Cap warning appears on the
vehicle information display when the fuel-
filler cap is not tightened correctly after the
vehicle has been refueled. It may take a few
driving trips for the warning to be displayed.
To turn off the warning, perform the
following:
1. Remove and install the fuel-filler cap assoon as possible. (See “Fuel-filler cap”
(P.3-27).)
2. Tighten the fuel-filler cap until it clicks.
3. Push the

wheel to turn off the Loose Fuel Cap
warning after tightening the fuel-filler cap.

WARNING
.Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. The driver’s air bag inflates with
great force. If you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways or
out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious or
fatal injuries from the air bag if you
are up against it when it inflates.
Always sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat
belts.

ELECTRIC OPERATION
Tilt or telescopic operation
Move the leverto adjust the steering
wheel up or down, forward or rearward to
the desired position.
Entry/Exit function operation:
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up automa-
tically when the driver’s door is opened with
the ignition switch in the LOCK position.
This lets the driver get into and out of the
seat more easily.
For more information, see “Automatic drive
positioner” (P.3-39).

SET/memory switches
The automatic drive positioner system has
three features:
. Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
. Setting memory function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automatically
move when the automatic transmission shift
lever is in the P (Park) position. This allows
the driver to get into and out of the driver’s
seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering wheel will move up when the
driver’s door is opened with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions when the
ignition switch is pushed to the ACC posi-
tion.
The driver’s seat will not return to the
previous positions if the seat or steering
adjusting switch is operated when the seat is
at the exit position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion
The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the “Lift Steering upon Exit” key or “Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit”
key is turned to ON or OFF in the [Settings]
menu on the lower display. (See INFINITI
InTouch
TMOwner’s Manual.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the entry/exit function will not
work though this function was set on before.
In such a case, after connecting the battery
or replacing with a new fuse, open and close
the driver’s door more than two times after
the ignition switch is turned from the ON
position to the LOCK position. The entry/
exit function will be activated.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored in
the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the memory
system.
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjust-
ing switch. For additional information,
see “Seats” (P.1-3) and “Tilt/telescopic
steering” (P.3-29) and “Outside mirrors”
(P.3-36).

3. Push the SET switch and, within 5seconds, push the memory switch (1 or
2) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed mem-
ory switch will stay on for approximately
5 seconds after pushing the switch.
When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be
deleted.
Linking Intelligent Key to a stored
memory position
The Intelligent Key can be linked to a stored
memory position with the following proce-
dure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memoryposition.
2. While the indicator light for the memory switch being set is illuminated for 5
seconds, push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. If the indicator light
blinks, the Intelligent Key is linked to
that memory setting.
Push the ignition switch to the OFF position,
and then push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. The driver’s seat, steering
wheel and outside mirrors will move to the memorized position.
Confirming memory storage
.
Push the ignition switch to the ON
position and push the SET switch. If the
main memory has not been stored, the
indicator light will come on for approxi-
mately 0.5 second. When the memory
has stored in position, the indicator light
will stay on for approximately 5 seconds.
. If the battery cable is disconnected, or if
the fuse opens, the memory will be
canceled. In this case, reset the desired
position using the previous procedure.
. If optional Intelligent Keys are added to
your vehicle, the memory storage proce-
dure to switch 1 or 2 and linking
Intelligent Key procedure to a stored
memory position should be performed
again for each Intelligent Key. For addi-
tional Intelligent Key information, see
“Keys” (P.3-2).
Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position.
2. Use one of the following methods to move the driver’s seat, the outside
mirrors and the steering wheel.
.Push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully
for at least 1 second. The driver’s seat, steering column and
outside mirrors will move to the memor-
ized position or to the exit position when
the entry/exit function is set to active
with the indicator light flashing, and then
the light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.
SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION
The status of the following settings can be
linked to the Intelligent Key and the memor-
ized settings can be available for each
Intelligent Key.
.
Air conditioner system
. Navigation system

SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will
not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions:
.When the vehicle speed is above 0 MPH
(0 km/h) or 4 MPH (7 km/h) for some
limited functions such linking an Intelli-
gent Key to the vehicle when the power
source is turned on from off or during the
Exit function.
. When any of the memory switches are
pushed while the automatic drive posi-
tioner is operating.
. When the adjusting switch for the dri-
ver’s seat and steering column is turned
on while the automatic drive positioner is
operating.

mirrors.
. Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
. The distance between objects viewed
in the rear view differs from actual
distance because a wide-angle lens is
used.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course lines and the
actual course line.
. The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
. The displayed lines on the rear view
