tion. Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
Some indicators and warnings are also

between the speedometer and tachometer.
(See “Vehicle information display” (P.2-20).)
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS
(red)
See “Vehicle information display” (P.2-20).
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
the shift lever in the N (Neutral) position.
(See “INFINITI all-mode 4WD
®” (P.5-113).)
orBrake warning light
This light functions for both the parking
brake and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light comes on when the
parking brake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid
level. If the light comes on while the engine is
running with the parking brake not applied,
stop the vehicle and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake fluid
is low, add fluid and have the system
checked. It is recommended you have this
service performed by an INFINITI retai-
ler. (See “Brake fluid” (P.8-9).)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recom-
mended you have this service performed
by an INFINITI retailer.
Page 110 of 529
Low hydraulic pressure warning indicator:
If the brake warning light illuminates when
the engine is running, or while driving with
the parking brake is released, check the
brake fluid level. If the brake fluid level is
sufficient, it may indicate low hydraulic
pressure in the brake booster. Have the
brake system checked. It is recommended
you have this service performed by an
INFINITI retailer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the
brake warning light and the Anti-lock Brak-
ing System (ABS) warning light illuminate, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the brake system checked,
and if necessary repaired. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
(See “Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warn-
ing light” (P.2-15).)
WARNING
.Your brake system may not be work-
ing properly if the warning light is on.
Driving could be dangerous. If you
judge it to be safe, drive carefully to
the nearest service station for re- pairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle
towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stopping
distance and braking will require
greater pedal effort as well as pedal
travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
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.
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.

Daytime running light system
The daytime running lights automatically
illuminate when the engine is started with
the parking brake released. The daytime
running lights operate with the headlight
switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to theposition for full illumination when driv-
ing at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights
do not illuminate. The daytime running lights
illuminate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on
until the ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle are
not on. It is necessary at dusk to turn on
your headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself and
others.
Adaptive Front lighting System
(AFS) (if so equipped)
The Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS)
will automatically adjust the headlights (low
beam) toward the turning direction to
improve the driver’s view. When the head-
light switch is ON and the driver operates
the steering wheel in a turn, the AFS system
will be activated.
The AFS will operate:
. when the headlight switch is ON.
. when the shift lever is in any position
other than P (Park) or R (Reverse).
. when the vehicle is driven at above 3
MPH (5 km/h) for the left-side head-
light. Note that the right-side low beam
headlight will swivel but the left-side
headlight will not swivel when the vehicle
is below 3 MPH (5 km/h) and the
steering wheel is turned.
AFS will also adjust the headlight to a 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
ON position, this may indicate that the AFS
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. When the engine is started, the headlights will vibrate
to check the system condition. This is not a
malfunction.HEADLIGHT WASHER (if so
equipped)
The headlight washer operates when the
headlight is on and the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
Pull the windshield washer switch toward
you. The headlight washer operates with the
windshield washer operation. This operation
activates once each time either the ignition
switch or the headlight switch is turned off
and on.
After the first operation, the headlight
washer operates once at every fifth opera-
tion of the windshield washer.
CAUTION
.
Do not operate the washer continu-
ously for longer than 30 seconds.
. Do not operate the headlight washer
if the window washer fluid reservoir
is empty.
