Your INFINITI represents a new way of

thinking about vehicle design. It integrates

advanced engineering and superior crafts-

manship with a simple, refined aesthetic

sensitivity associated with traditional Ja-

panese culture.

The result is a different notion of luxury

and beauty. The car itself is important, but

so is the sense of harmony that the vehicle

evokes in its driver, and the sense of

satisfaction you feel with the INFINITI —

from the way it looks and drives to the high

level of retailer service.

To ensure that you enjoy your INFINITI to

the fullest, we encourage you to read this

Owner’s Manual immediately. It explains

all of the features, controls and perfor-

mance characteristics of your INFINITI; it

also provides important instructions and

safety information.

A separate Warranty Information Booklet

is included in your Owner’s literature

portfolio. Always carry it with you when

you take your vehicle to an INFINITI

retailer. The Warranty Information Booklet

contents provide complete information

about all warranties covering this vehicle,

the requirements to keep the warranties in

effect as well as the INFINITI Roadside

Assistance program.

Additionally, a separate Customer Care

and Lemon Law Information Booklet will

explain how to resolve any concerns you

may have with your vehicle, as well as

clarify your rights under your state’s

lemon law.

In addition to factory installed options,

your vehicle may also be equipped with

additional accessories installed by INFINITI

or by your INFINITI retailer prior to delivery.

It is important that you familiarize yourself

with all disclosures, warnings, cautions

and instructions concerning proper use of

such accessories prior to operating the

vehicle and/or accessory. It is recom-

mended you see an INFINITI retailer for

details concerning the particular acces-

sories with which your vehicle is equipped.

READ FIRST — THEN DRIVE SAFELY

Y51D-V-E01-AC330383-C773-4EB3-A52F-61102B1D37CD

Before driving your vehicle, read your

Owner’s Manual carefully. This will ensure

familiarity with controls and maintenance

requirements, assisting you in the safe

operation of your vehicle.

WARNING

. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the

seatback is reclined. This can be danger-

ous. The shoulder belt will not be against

your body. In an accident, you could be

thrown into it and receive neck or other

serious injuries. You could also slide

under the lap belt and receive serious

internal injuries.

. For the most effective protection when

the vehicle is in motion, the seat should

be upright. Always sit well back and

upright in the seat with both feet on the

floor and adjust the seat belt properly.

See “Precautions on seat belt usage”

(P.1-10).

. Do not leave children unattended inside

the vehicle. They could unknowingly

activate switches or controls. Unat-

tended children could become involved

in serious accidents.

. To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the

vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave

children, people who require the assis-

tance of others or pets unattended in

your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-

ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm

day can quickly become high enough to

cause a significant risk of injury or death

to people and pets.

. The seatback should not be reclined

further than necessary for comfort. Seat

belts are most effective when the pas-

senger sits well back and straight up in

the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the

risk of sliding under the lap belt and

being injured is increased.

CAUTION

When adjusting the seat positions, be sure

not to contact any moving parts to avoid

possible injuries and/or damages.

WARNING

Head restraint/headrest supplement the

other vehicle safety systems. They may

provide additional protection against injury

in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable

head restraints/headrests must be adjusted

properly, as specified in this section. Check

the adjustment after someone else uses the

seat. Do not attach anything to the head

restraint/headrest stalks or remove the

head restraint/headrest. Do not use the

seat if the head restraint/headrest has been

removed. If the head restraint/headrest was

removed, reinstall and properly adjust the

head restraint/headrest before an occupant

uses the seating position. Failure to follow

these instructions can reduce the effective-

ness of the head restraint/headrest. This

may increase the risk of serious injury or

death in a collision.

FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD RE-

STRAINTS

Y51D-V-E01-A1626E2D-B3B2-4F9A-93C8-09BB1DD74A81

The Active Head Restraint moves forward

utilizing the force that the seatback re-

ceives from the occupant in a rear-end

collision. The movement of the head

restraint helps support the occupant’s

head by reducing its backward movement

and helping absorb some of the forces that

may lead to whiplash-type injuries.

Active Head Restraints are effective for

collisions at low to medium speeds in

which it is said that whiplash-type injury

occurs most.

Active Head Restraints operate only in

certain rear-end collisions. After the colli-

sion, the head restraints return to their

original positions.

Adjust the Active Head Restraints properly

as described earlier in this section.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE

Y51D-V-E01-0A678CD3-4A52-4D86-8AB5-75E62AB34DD6

If you are wearing your seat belt properly

adjusted, and you are sitting upright and

well back in your seat with both feet on the

floor, your chances of being injured or

killed in an accident and/or the severity of

injury may be greatly reduced. INFINITI

strongly encourages you and all of your

passengers to buckle up every time you

drive, even if your seating position in-

cludes a supplemental air bag.

Most U.S. states and Canadian provinces

or territories specify that seat belts be

worn at all times when a vehicle is being

driven.

Condition:

(33,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

WARNING

. Every person who drives or rides in this

vehicle should use a seat belt at all

times. Children should be properly re-

strained in the rear seat and, if appro-

priate, in a child restraint.

. The seat belt should be properly ad-

justed to a snug fit. Failure to do so may

reduce the effectiveness of the entire

restraint system and increase the chance

or severity of injury in an accident.

Serious injury or death can occur if the

seat belt is not worn properly.

. Always route the shoulder belt over your

shoulder and across your chest. Never

run the belt behind your back, under

your arm or across your neck. The belt

should be away from your face and neck,

but not falling off your shoulder.

. Position the lap belt as low and snug as

possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE

WAIST. A lap belt worn too high could

increase the risk of internal injuries in an

accident.

. Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely

fastened to the proper buckle.

. Do not wear the seat belt inside out or

twisted. Doing so may reduce its effec-

tiveness.

. Do not allow more than one person to

use the same seat belt.

. Never carry more people in the vehicle

than there are seat belts.

. If the seat belt warning light glows

continuously while the ignition is turned

ON with all doors closed and all seat

belts fastened, it may indicate a mal-

function in the system. Have the system

checked. It is recommended you visit an

INFINITI retailer for this service.

. No changes should be made to the seat

belt system. For example, do not modify

the seat belt, add material or install

devices that may change the seat belt

routing or tension. Doing so may affect

the operation of the seat belt system.

Modifying or tampering with the seat

belt system may result in serious perso-

nal injury.

. Once a seat belt pretensioner has

activated, it cannot be reused and must

be replaced together with the retractor.

It is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for this service.

. All seat belt assemblies, including re-

tractors and attaching hardware, should

be inspected after any collision. It is

recommended you visit an INFINITI re-

tailer for this service. INFINITI recom-

mends that all seat belt assemblies in

use during a collision be replaced unless

the collision was minor and the belts

show no damage and continue to oper-

ate properly. Seat belt assemblies not in

use during a collision should also be

inspected and replaced if either damage

or improper operation is noted.

. All child restraints and attaching hard-

ware should be inspected after any

collision. Always follow the restraint

manufacturer’s inspection instructions

and replacement recommendations. The

child restraints should be replaced if

they are damaged.

PREGNANT WOMEN

Y51D-V-E01-68785179-C63E-48C7-846C-4DEDBC5E5B77

INFINITI recommends that pregnant women

use seat belts. The seat belt should be

worn snug, and always position the lap

belt as low as possible around the hips,

not the waist, and place the shoulder belt

over your shoulder and across your chest.

Never run the lap/shoulder belt over your

abdominal area. Contact your doctor for

specific recommendations.

INJURED PERSONS

Y51D-V-E01-7CEE9D29-DBCF-47A1-AD75-CAF60886623F

INFINITI recommends that injured persons

use seat belts, depending on the injury.

Check with your doctor for specific recom-

mendations.

PRE-CRASH SEAT BELTS WITH COM-

FORT FUNCTION (front seats) (if so

equipped)

Y51D-V-E01-8017E748-E53E-4E9A-925C-A78E351F9CDC

The pre-crash seat belt tightens the seat

belt with a motor to help restrain front seat

occupants. This helps reduce the risk of

injury in a collision.

The motor retracts the seat belt under the

following emergency conditions:

. During emergency braking

. During sudden steering maneuvers

. Activation of the Forward Emergency

Braking (FEB) system. (See “Forward

Emergency Braking (FEB)” (P.5-108).)

The pre-crash seat belt will not be active

when:

. the seat belt is not fastened

. the vehicle speed is under 10 MPH (15

km/h) during emergency braking

. the vehicle speed is under 16 MPH (30

km/h) during sudden steering maneu-

vers.

The pre-crash seat belt will not be active

when the brake pedal is not depressed

except when sudden steering maneuvers

occur or the FEB system activates.

The motor also retracts the seat belt when

the seat belt is fastened or unfastened.

When the seat belt is fastened, the motor

tightens the seat belt for a snug fit. When

the seat belt is unfastened, the motor

retracts the seat belt. If the seat belt is not

fully retracted, the motor retracts the seat

belt when the door is opened.

Always wear your seat belt correctly and sit

upright and well back.

If the motor cannot retract the seat belt

when the seat belt is fastened or unfas-

tened, it may indicate the pre-crash seat

belt system has a malfunction. Have the

system checked and repaired. It is recom-

mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for

this service.

When the seat belt is retracted repeatedly

in a short period of time, the motor may not

be able to retract the seat belt. After 30

seconds, the motor reactivates and retracts

the seat belt. If the seat belt still cannot be

retracted by the motor, the pre-crash seat

belt system has a malfunction. Have the

system checked and repaired. It is recom-

mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for

this service.

WARNING

. Every person who drives or rides in this

vehicle should use a seat belt at all

times.

. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the

seatback is reclined. This can be danger-

ous. The shoulder belt will not be against

your body. In an accident, you could be

thrown into it and receive neck or other

serious injuries. You could also slide

under the lap belt and receive serious

internal injuries.

. For the most effective protection when

the vehicle is in motion, the seat should

be upright. Always sit well back and

upright in the seat with both feet on the

floor and adjust the seat belt properly.

. Do not allow children to play with the

seat belts. Most seating positions are

equipped with Automatic Locking Re-

tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the seat

belt becomes wrapped around a child’s

neck with the ALR mode activated, the

child can be seriously injured or killed if

the seat belt retracts and becomes tight.

This can occur even if the vehicle is

parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to release

the child. If the seat belt can not be

unbuckled or is already unbuckled,

release the child by cutting the seat belt

with a suitable tool (such as a knife or

scissors) to release the seat belt.

1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats” (P.1-2).)

2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the

retractor and insert the tongue into the

buckle until you hear and feel the latch

engage.

The retractor is designed to lock

during a sudden stop or on impact. A

slow pulling motion permits the belt

to move, and allows you some free-

dom of movement in the seat.

The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)

mode allows the seat belt to extend and

retract to allow the driver and passengers

some freedom of movement in the seat.

The ELR locks the seat belt when the

vehicle slows down rapidly or during

impacts.

The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)

mode (child restraint mode) locks the seat

belt for child restraint installation.

When the ALR mode is activated the seat

belt cannot be extended again until the

seat belt tongue is detached from the

buckle and fully retracted. The seat belt

returns to the ELR mode after the seat belt

fully retracts. For additional information,

see “Child restraints” (P.1-20).

The ALR mode should be used only for

child restraint installation. During normal

seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR

mode should not be activated. If it is

activated, it may cause uncomfortable seat

belt tension.

WARNING

When fastening the seat belts, be certain

that seatbacks are completely secured in

the latched position. If they are not com-

pletely secured, passengers may be injured

in an accident or sudden stop.

. When the belt is pulled quickly from the

retractor.

. When the vehicle slows down rapidly.

To increase your confidence in the seat

belts, check the operation as follows:

. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull for-

ward quickly. The retractor should lock

and restrict further belt movement.

If the retractor does not lock during this

check, get the system checked. It is

recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer

for this service, or to learn more about seat

belt operation.

Shoulder belt height adjustment

(front seats)

Y51D-V-E01-AF255FCF-2B6B-4866-BEAE-C1535E310571

The shoulder belt anchor height should be

adjusted to the position best for you. (See

“Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).)

To adjust, push the button

, and then

move the shoulder belt anchor to the

desired position, so that the belt passes

over the center of the shoulder. The belt

should be away from your face and neck,

but not falling off of your shoulder. Release

the adjustment button to lock the shoulder

belt anchor into position.

WARNING

. After adjustment, release the adjust-

ment button and try to move the

shoulder belt anchor up and down to

make sure it is securely fixed in position.

. The shoulder belt anchor height should

be adjusted to the position best for you.

Failure to do so may reduce the effec-

tiveness of the entire restraint system

and increase the chance or severity of

injury in an accident.

SEAT BELT EXTENDERS

Y51D-V-E01-EA87CE63-37A2-4716-9559-F5AB89630915

If, because of body size or driving position,

it is not possible to properly fit the lap-

shoulder belt and fasten it, an extender

that is compatible with the installed seat

belts is available that can be purchased.

The extender adds approximately 8 in (200

mm) of length and may be used for either

the driver or front passenger seating

position. It is recommended you visit an

INFINITI retailer for assistance with pur-

chasing an extender if an extender is

required.

WARNING

. It is recommended that only INFINITI seat

belt extenders, made by the same

company which made the original equip-

ment seat belts, be used with the

INFINITI seat belts.

. Adults and children who can use the

standard seat belt should not use an

extender. Such unnecessary use could

result in serious personal injury in the

event of an accident.

. Never use seat belt extenders to install

child restraints. If the child restraint is

not secured properly, the child could be

seriously injured or killed in a collision

or a sudden stop.

SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE

Y51D-V-E01-724E27C2-8A16-4DAB-AC4C-60727D8C9395

. To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a

mild soap solution or any solution

recommended for cleaning upholstery

or carpets. Then, wipe with a cloth and

allow the seat belts to dry in the shade.

Do not allow the seat belts to retract

until they are completely dry.

Condition:

(39,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

. If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt

guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat

belts may retract slowly. Wipe the

shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry

cloth.

. Periodically check to see that the seat

belt and the metal components such as

buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible

wires and anchors work properly. If

loose parts, deterioration, cuts or other

damage on the webbing is found, the

entire seat belt assembly should be

replaced.

Y51D-V-E01-4EE25869-D4A8-4688-93AE-F4B2B0465998

WARNING

Do not allow children to play with the seat

belts. Most seating positions are equipped

with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)

mode seat belts. If the seat belt becomes

wrapped around a child’s neck with the ALR

mode activated, the child can be seriously

injured or killed if the seat belt retracts and

becomes tight. This can occur even if the

vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to

release the child. If the seat belt can not be

unbuckled or is already unbuckled, release

the child by cutting the seat belt with a

suitable tool (such as a knife or scissors) to

release the seat belt.

Children need adults to help protect them.

They need to be properly restrained.

In addition to the general information in

this manual, child safety information is

available from many other sources, includ-

ing doctors, teachers, government traffic

safety offices, and community organiza-

tions. Every child is different, so be sure to

learn the best way to transport your child.

There are three basic types of child

restraint systems:

. Rear-facing child restraint

. Forward-facing child restraint

. Booster seat

The proper restraint depends on the child’s

size. Generally, infants up to about 1 year

and less than 20 lbs (9 kg) should be

placed in rear-facing child restraints. For-

ward-facing child restraints are available

for children who outgrow rear-facing child

restraints and are at least 1 year old.

Booster seats are used to help position a

vehicle lap/shoulder belt on a child who

can no longer use a forward-facing child

restraint.

WARNING

Infants and children need special protection.

The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them

properly. The shoulder belt may come too

close to the face or neck. The lap belt may

not fit over their small hip bones. In an

accident, an improperly fitting seat belt

could cause serious or fatal injury. Always

use appropriate child restraints.

1-18 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or

territories require the use of approved

child restraints for infants and small

children. See “Child restraints” (P.1-20).

A child restraint may be secured in the

vehicle by using either the LATCH (Lower

Anchor and Tethers for CHildren) system or

with the vehicle seat belt. See “Child

restraints” (P.1-20) for more information.

INFINITI recommends that all pre-teens

and children be restrained in the rear seat.

Studies show that children are safer when

properly restrained in the rear seat than in

the front seat.

This is especially important because your

vehicle has a supplemental restraint sys-

tem (Air bag system) for the front passen-

ger. See “Supplemental restraint system”

(P.1-40).

INFANTS

Y51D-V-E01-0DC2B248-D00D-4159-9D0A-861233779965

Infants up to at least 1 year old should be

placed in a rear-facing child restraint.

INFINITI recommends that infants be

placed in child restraints that comply with

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or

Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

You should choose a child restraint that fits

your vehicle and always follow the manu-

facturer’s instructions for installation and

use.

SMALL CHILDREN

Y51D-V-E01-C9C54803-16A9-4E13-B935-F06D6F606BF4

Children that are over 1 year old and weigh

at least 20 lbs (9 kg) should remain in a

rear-facing child restraint as long as

possible up to the height or weight limit

of the child restraint. Children who outgrow

the height or weight limit of the rear-facing

child restraint and are at least 1 year old

should be secured in a forward-facing child

restraint with a harness. Refer to the

manufacturer’s instructions for minimum

and maximum weight and height recom-

mendations. INFINITI recommends that

small children be placed in child restraints

that comply with Federal Motor Vehicle

Safety Standards or Canadian Motor Vehi-

cle Safety Standards. You should choose a

child restraint that fits your vehicle and

always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-

tions for installation and use.

LARGER CHILDREN

Y51D-V-E01-4359DFEB-B409-4DE8-BEF0-9BE3771E94B2

Children should remain in a forward-facing

child restraint with a harness until they

reach the maximum height or weight limit

allowed by the child restraint manufac-

turer.

Once a child outgrows the height or weight

limit of the harness-equipped forward-

facing child restraint, INFINITI recommends

that the child be placed in a commercially

available booster seat to obtain proper

seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly,

the booster seat should raise the child so

that the shoulder belt is properly posi-

tioned across the chest and the top, middle

portion of the shoulder. The shoulder belt

should not cross the neck or face and

should not fall off the shoulder. The lap belt

should lie snugly across the lower hips or

upper thighs, not the abdomen.

A booster seat can only be used in seating

positions that have a three-point type seat

belt. The booster seat should fit the vehicle

seat and have a label certifying that it

complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety

Standards or Canadian Motor Vehicle

Safety Standards.

A booster seat should be used until the

child can pass the seat belt fit test below:

Condition:

(41,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

. Are the child’s back and hips against

the vehicle seatback?

. Is the child able to sit without slouch-

ing?

. Do the child’s knees bend easily over

the front edge of the seat with feet flat

on the floor?

. Can the child safely wear the seat belt

(lap belt low and snug across the hips

and shoulder belt across mid-chest and

shoulder)?

. Is the child able to use the properly

adjusted head restraint/headrest?

. Will the child be able to stay in position

for the entire ride?

JVR0473X

If you answered no to any of these

questions, the child should remain in a

booster seat using a three-point type seat

belt.

NOTE:

Laws in some communities may follow

different guidelines. Check local and state

regulations to confirm your child is using

the correct restraint system before travel-

ing.

WARNING

Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat

and do not allow a child in the cargo area.

The child could be seriously injured or killed

in a sudden stop or collision.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RE-

STRAINTS

Y51D-V-E01-DF1C88B0-F8FE-4B02-B9A6-BB94E83BDF16

WARNING

. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use and installa-

tion of child restraints could result in

serious injury or death of a child or other

passengers in a sudden stop or collision:

—

The child restraint must be used and

installed properly. Always follow all

of the child restraint manufacturer’s

instructions for installation and use.

—

Infants and children should never be

held on anyone’s lap. Even the

strongest adult cannot resist the

forces of a collision.

—

Do not put a seat belt around both a

child and another passenger.

—

INFINITI recommends that all child

restraints be installed in the rear

seat. Studies show that children are

safer when properly restrained in the

rear seat than in the front seat. If you

must install a forward-facing child

restraint in the front seat, see “For-

ward-facing child restraint installa-

tion using the seat belts” (P.1-32).

—

Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air

Bag System, never install a rear-

facing child restraint in the front

seat. An inflating air bag could

seriously injure or kill a child. A

rear-facing child restraint must only

be used in the rear seat.

—

Be sure to purchase a child restraint

that will fit the child and vehicle.

Some child restraints may not fit

properly in your vehicle.

—

Child restraint anchor points are

designed to withstand loads from

child restraints that are properly

fitted.

—

Never use the anchor points for

adult seat belts or harnesses.

—

A child restraint with a top tether

strap should not be used in the front

passenger seat.

—

Keep seatbacks as upright as pos-

sible after fitting the child restraint.

—

Infants and children should always

be placed in an appropriate child

restraint while in the vehicle.

CHILD RESTRAINTS

Condition:

(43,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

. When the child restraint is not in use,

keep it secured with the LATCH system or

a seat belt. In a sudden stop or collision,

loose objects can injure occupants or

damage the vehicle.

CAUTION

A child restraint in a closed vehicle can

become very hot. Check the seating surface

and buckles before placing a child in the

child restraint.

This vehicle is equipped with a universal

child restraint anchor system, referred to

as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers

for CHildren) system. Some child restraints

include rigid or webbing-mounted attach-

ments that can be connected to these

anchors.

For details, see “Lower Anchors and

Tethers for CHildren System (LATCH)” (P.1-

22).

If you do not have a LATCH compatible child

restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be

used.

Several manufacturers offer child re-

straints for infants and small children of

various sizes. When selecting any child

restraint, keep the following points in

mind:

. Choose only a restraint with a label

certifying that it complies with Federal

Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or

Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-

dard 213.

. Check the child restraint in your vehicle

to be sure it is compatible with the

vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.

. If the child restraint is compatible with

your vehicle, place your child in the

child restraint and check the various

adjustments to be sure the child

restraint is compatible with your child.

Choose a child restraint that is de-

signed for your child’s height and

weight. Always follow all recommended

procedures.

. If the combined weight of the child and

child restraint is less than 65 lbs (29.5

kg), you may use either the LATCH

anchors or the seat belt to install the

child restraint (not both at the same

time).

. If the combined weight of the child and

child restraint is greater than 65 lbs

(29.5 kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt

(not the lower anchors) to install the

child restraint.

. Be sure to follow the child restraint

manufacturer’s instructions for installa-

tion.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or

territories require that infants and small

children be restrained in an approved child

restraint at all times while the vehicle is

being operated. Canadian law requires the

top tether strap on forward-facing child

restraints be secured to the designated

anchor point on the vehicle.

Precautions on booster seats

Y51D-V-E01-EEB07257-7590-4249-8F66-9FD497B4B441

WARNING

If a booster seat and seat belt are not used

properly, the risk of a child being injured in a

sudden stop or collision greatly increases:

. Make sure the shoulder portion of the

belt is away from the child’s face and

neck and the lap portion of the belt does

not cross the stomach.

. Make sure the shoulder belt is not

behind the child or under the child’s

arm.

. A booster seat must only be installed in

a seating position that has a lap/

shoulder belt.

LRS0455

Booster seats of various sizes are offered

by several manufacturers. When selecting

any booster seat, keep the following points

in mind:

. Choose only a booster seat with a label

certifying that it complies with Federal

Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or

Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-

dard 213.

. Check the booster seat in your vehicle

to be sure it is compatible with the

vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.

Condition:

(59,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

LRS0453

. Make sure the child’s head will be

properly supported by the booster seat

or vehicle seat. The seatback must be at

or above the center of the child’s ears.

For example, if a low back booster seat

is chosen, the vehicle seatback

must be at or above the center of the

child’s ears. If the seatback is lower

than the center of the child’s ears, a

high back booster seat

should be

used.

. If the booster seat is compatible with

your vehicle, place your child in the

booster seat and check the various

adjustments to be sure the booster seat

is compatible with your child. Always

follow all recommended procedures.

LRS0464

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or

territories require that infants and small

children be restrained in an approved child

restraint at all times while the vehicle is

being operated.

The instructions in this section apply to

booster seat installation in the rear seats

or the front passenger seat.

Air Bag System)

. Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-

mental air bag

. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and

rollover supplemental air bag

. Seat belt with pretensioner

Supplemental front-impact air bag system:

The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System can

help cushion the impact force to the head

and chest of the driver and front passenger

in certain frontal collisions.

Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-

mental air bag system: This system can

help cushion the impact force to the chest

and pelvis area of the driver and front

passenger in certain side impact collisions.

The side air bag is designed to inflate on

the side where the vehicle is impacted.

Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and

rollover supplemental air bag system: This

system can help cushion the impact force

to the head of occupants in front and rear

outboard seating positions in certain side

impact or rollover collisions. In a side-

impact, the curtain air bags are designed

to inflate on the side where the vehicle is

impacted. In a rollover, the curtain air bags

on both sides are designed to inflate and

remain inflated for a short time.

Curtain air bags are also designed to

inflate in certain types of rollover collisions

or near rollovers. As a result, certain

vehicle movements (for example, during

severe off-roading) may cause the curtain

air bags to inflate.

These supplemental restraint systems are

designed to supplement the crash protec-

tion provided by the driver and passenger

seat belts and are not a substitute for

them. Seat belts should always be cor-

rectly worn and the occupant seated a

suitable distance away from the steering

wheel, instrument panel and door fin-

ishers. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-10) for

instructions and precautions on seat belt

usage.)

The supplemental air bags operate only

when the ignition switch is in the ON

position.

After pushing the ignition switch to the ON

position, the supplemental air bag warn-

ing light illuminates. The supplemental air

bag warning light will turn off after about 7

seconds if the systems are operational.

. The supplemental front air bags ordina-

rily will not inflate in the event of a side

impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower

severity frontal collision. Always wear

your seat belts to help reduce the risk or

severity of injury in various kinds of

accidents.

seat is unoccupied. See “Front passen-

ger air bag and status light” (P.1-48).

. The seat belts and the supplemental

front air bags are most effective when

you are sitting well back and upright in

the seat with both feet on the floor. The

front air bags inflate with great force.

Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag

System, 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

severity of a collision and seat belt

usage then inflates the air bags as

needed. Failure to properly wear seat

belts can increase the risk or severity of

injury in an accident.

. The front passenger seat is equipped

with an occupant classification sensor

(pattern sensor) that turns the front

passenger air bag OFF under some

conditions. This sensor is only used in

this seat. Failure to be properly seated

and wearing the seat belt can increase

the risk or severity of injury in an

operation.

The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System has

dual stage air bag inflators. The system

monitors information from the crash zone

sensor, the Air bag Control Unit (ACU), seat

belt buckle switches and the occupant

classification sensor (pattern sensor). In-

flator operation is based on the severity of

a collision and seat belt usage for the

driver. For the front passenger, the occu-

pant classification sensor is also moni-

tored. Based on information from the

sensors, only one front air bag may inflate

in a crash, depending on the crash severity

and whether the front occupants are belted

or unbelted. Additionally, the front pas-

senger air bag may be automatically turned

OFF under some conditions, depending on

the information provided by the occupant

classification sensor. If the front passenger

air bag is OFF, the front passenger air bag

status light will be illuminated (if the seat

is unoccupied, the light will not be

illuminated, but the air bag will be off).

(See “Front passenger air bag and status

light” (P.1-48) for further details.) One front

air bag inflating does not indicate improper

performance of the system.

If you have any questions about your air

bag system, it is recommended you visit an

INFINITI retailer to obtain information

about the system. If you are considering

modification of your vehicle due to a

disability, you may also contact an INFINITI

retailer. Contact information is contained in

the front of this Owner’s Manual.

When a front air bag inflates, a fairly loud

noise may be heard, followed by release of

smoke. This smoke is not harmful and does

not indicate a fire. Care should be taken

not to inhale it, as it may cause irritation

and choking. Those with a history of a

breathing condition should get fresh air

promptly.

Front air bags, along with the use of seat

belts, help to cushion the impact force on

the head and chest of the front occupants.

They can help save lives and reduce

serious injuries. However, an inflating front

air bag may cause facial abrasions or other

injuries. Front air bags do not provide

restraint to the lower body.

Even with INFINITI Advanced Air Bags, seat

belts should be correctly worn and the

driver and passenger seated upright as far

as practical away from the steering wheel

or instrument panel. The front air bags

inflate quickly in order to help protect the

front occupants. Because of this, the force

of the front air bag inflating can increase

the risk of injury if the occupant is too close

to, or is against, the air bag module during

inflation.

The front air bags deflate quickly after a

collision.

The supplemental front air bags operate

only when the ignition switch is in the ON

position.

After pushing the ignition switch to the ON

position, the supplemental air bag warn-

ing light illuminates. The supplemental air

bag warning light will turn off after about 7

seconds if the system is operational.

Y51D-V-E01-251B11C4-1A1B-4A64-9371-B0EC203F33CE

WARNING

The front passenger air bag is designed to

automatically turn OFF under some condi-

tions. Read this section carefully to learn

how it operates. Proper use of the seat, seat

belt and child restraints is necessary for

most effective protection. Failure to follow

all instructions in this manual concerning

the use of seats, seat belts and child

restraints can increase the risk or severity

of injury in an accident.

Status light:

Y51D-V-E01-2C107CFC-C909-4AB5-A6B8-9C47EAC579BA

The front passenger air bag status light

is located on the instrument panel.

After the ignition switch is placed in the ON

position, the front passenger air bag status

light illuminates for about 7 seconds and

then turns off or illuminates depending on

the front passenger seat occupied status.

The light operates as follows:

. Unoccupied passenger seat: The

light is OFF and the front passenger air

bag is OFF and will not inflate in a

crash.

. Passenger seat occupied by a small

adult, child or child restraint as out-

lined in this section: The

light

illuminates to indicate that the front

passenger air bag is OFF and will not

inflate in a crash.

. Occupied passenger seat and the pas-

senger meets the conditions outlined in

this section: The

light is OFF to

indicate that the front passenger air

bag is operational.

Front passenger air bag:

Y51D-V-E01-C6271740-9F33-47C5-9A49-855A85AE074E

The front passenger air bag is designed to

automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is

operated under some conditions as de-

scribed below as permitted by U.S. regula-

tions. If the front passenger air bag is OFF,

it will not inflate in a crash. The driver air

bag and other air bags in your vehicle are

not part of this system.

The purpose of the regulation is to help

reduce the risk of injury or death from an

inflating air bag to certain front passenger

seat occupants, such as children, by

requiring the air bag to be automatically

turned OFF.

The occupant classification sensor (pattern

sensor) is in the front passenger seat

cushion and is designed to detect an

occupant and objects on the seat. For

example, if a child is in the front passenger

seat, the Advanced Air Bag System is

designed to turn the passenger air bag

OFF in accordance with the regulations.

Also, if a child restraint of the type

specified in the regulations is on the seat,

the occupant classification sensor can

detect it and cause the air bag to turn OFF.

Front passenger seat adult occupants who

are properly seated and using the seat belt

Condition:

(71,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

as outlined in this manual should not

cause the passenger air bag to be auto-

matically turned OFF. For small adults it

may be turned OFF, however, if the

occupant does not sit in the seat properly

(for example, by not sitting upright, by

sitting on an edge of the seat, or by

otherwise being out of position), this could

cause the sensor to turn the air bag OFF.

Always be sure to be seated and wearing

the seat belt properly for the most effective

protection by the seat belt and supple-

mental air bag.

INFINITI recommends that pre-teens and

children be properly restrained in a rear

seat. INFINITI also recommends that appro-

priate child restraints and booster seats be

properly installed in a rear seat. If this is

not possible, the occupant classification

sensor is designed to operate as described

above to turn the front passenger air bag

OFF for specified child restraints. Failing to

properly secure child restraints and to use

the ALR mode (child restraint mode) may

allow the restraint to tip or move in an

accident or sudden stop. This can also

result in the passenger air bag inflating in a

crash instead of being OFF. (See “Child

restraints” (P.1-20) for proper use and

installation.)

If the front passenger seat is not occupied,

the passenger air bag is designed not to

inflate in a crash. However, heavy objects

placed on the seat could result in air bag

inflation, because of the object being

detected by the occupant classification

sensor. Other conditions could also result

in air bag inflation, such as if a child is

standing on the seat, or if two children are

on the seat, contrary to the instructions in

this manual. Always be sure that you and

all vehicle occupants are seated and

restrained properly.

Using the front passenger air bag status

light, you can monitor when the front

passenger air bag is automatically turned

OFF with the seat occupied. The light will

not illuminate when the front passenger

seat is unoccupied.

If an adult occupant is in the seat but the

front passenger air bag status light is

illuminated (indicating that the air bag is

OFF), it could be that the person is a small

adult, or is not sitting on the seat properly.

If a child restraint must be used in the front

seat, the front passenger air bag status

light may or may not be illuminated,

depending on the size of the child and

the type of child restraint being used. If the

front passenger air bag status light is not

illuminated (indicating that the air bag

might inflate in a crash), it could be that

the child restraint or seat belt is not being

used properly. Make sure that the child

restraint is installed properly, the seat belt

is used properly and the occupant is

positioned properly. If the front passenger

air bag status light is still not illuminated,

reposition the occupant or child restraint in

a rear seat.

If the front passenger air bag status light

will not illuminate even though you believe

that the child restraint, the seat belts and

the occupant are properly positioned, the

system may be sensing an unoccupied seat

(in which case the air bag is OFF). Your

INFINITI retailer can check that the system

is OFF by using a special tool. However,

until you have confirmed with your retailer

that your air bag is working properly,

reposition the occupant or child restraint

in a rear seat.

The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System and

front passenger air bag status light will

take a few seconds to register a change in

the passenger seat status. However, if the

seat becomes unoccupied, the front pas-

WARNING

. Do not place any objects on the steering

wheel pad or on the instrument panel.

Also, do not place any objects between

any occupant and the steering wheel or

instrument panel. Such objects may

become dangerous projectiles and cause

injury if the front air bags inflate.

. Do not place objects with sharp edges on

the seat. Also, do not place heavy

objects on the seat that will leave

permanent impressions in the seat. Such

objects can damage the seat or occupant

classification sensor (pattern sensor).

This can affect the operation of the air

bag system and result in serious perso-

nal injury.

. Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot

steam cleaners) on the seat. This can

damage the seat or occupant classifica-

tion sensor. This can also affect the

operation of the air bag system and

result in serious personal injury.

. Immediately after inflation, several front

air bag system components will be hot.

Do not touch them; you may severely

burn yourself.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring of

the air bag system. This is to prevent

accidental inflation of the supplemental

air bag or damage to the supplemental

air bag system.

. Do not make unauthorized changes to

your vehicle’s electrical system, suspen-

sion system or front end structure. This

could affect proper operation of the front

air bag system.

. Tampering with the air bag system may

result in serious personal injury. Tamper-

ing includes changes to the steering

wheel and the instrument panel assem-

bly by placing material over the steering

wheel pad and above the instrument

panel or by installing additional trim

material around the air bag system.

. Modifying or tampering with the front

passenger seat may result in serious

personal injury. For example, do not

change the front seats by placing mate-

rial on the seat cushion or by installing

additional trim material, such as seat

covers, on the seat that is not specifi-

cally designed to assure proper air bag

operation. Additionally, do not stow any

objects under the front passenger seat

or the seat cushion and seatback. Such

objects may interfere with the proper

operation of the occupant classification

sensor.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring of

the seat belt system. This may affect the

front air bag system. Tampering with the

seat belt system may result in serious

personal injury.

. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for work on and around the front

air bag. It is also recommended you visit

an INFINITI retailer for installation of

The side air bags are located in the outside

of the seatback of the front seats. The

curtain air bags are located in the side roof

rails. All of the information, cautions and

warnings in this manual apply and must be

followed. The side air bags and curtain air

bags are designed to inflate in higher

severity side collisions, although they may

inflate if the forces in another type of

collision are similar to those of a higher

severity side impact. They are designed to

inflate on the side where the vehicle is

impacted. They may not inflate in certain

side collisions on the side where the

vehicle is impacted.

Curtain air bags are also designed to

inflate in certain types of rollover collisions

or near rollovers. As a result, certain

vehicle movements (for example, during

severe off-roading) may cause the curtain

air bags to inflate.

Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always

an indication of proper supplemental side

air bag and curtain side-impact air bag

operation.

When side air bags and curtain air bags

inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard,

followed by release of smoke. This smoke

is not harmful and does not indicate a fire.

Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it

may cause irritation and choking. Those

with a history of a breathing condition

and rear outboard seating positions. They

can help save lives and reduce serious

injuries. However, an inflating side air bag

or curtain air bag may cause abrasions or

other injuries. Side air bags and curtain air

bags do not provide restraint to the lower

body.

The seat belts should be correctly worn and

the driver and passenger seated upright as

far as practical away from the side air bag.

Rear seat passengers should be seated as

far away as practical from the door

finishers and side roof rails. The side air

bags and curtain air bags inflate quickly in

order to help protect the occupants.

Because of this, the force of the side air

bags and curtain air bags inflating can

increase the risk of injury if the occupant is

too close to, or is against, these air bag

modules during inflation. In a rollover, the

curtain air bags on both sides are designed

to inflate. Under both side-impact situa-

tions, the curtain air bags will remain

inflated for a short period of time.

The side air bags and curtain air bags

operate only when the ignition switch is in

the ON position.

After pushing the ignition switch to the ON

position, the supplemental air bag warn-

ing light illuminates. The air bag warning

light will turn off after about 7 seconds if

the systems are operational.

WARNING

. Do not place any objects near the seat-

back of the front seats. Also, do not

place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.)

between the front door finisher and the

front seat. Such objects may become

dangerous projectiles and cause injury if

side air bag inflates.

. Right after inflation, several side air

bags and curtain air bag system compo-

nents will be hot. Do not touch them; you

may severely burn yourself.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring of

side air bag and curtain air bags. This is

to prevent damage to or accidental

inflation of the side air bag and curtain

air bag systems.

. Do not make unauthorized changes to

your vehicle’s electrical system, suspen-

sion system or side panel. This could

affect proper operation of the side air

bag and curtain air bag systems.

. Tampering with the air bag system may

result in serious personal injury. For

example, do not change the front seats

by placing material near the seatback or

by installing additional trim material,

such as seat covers, around the side air

bags.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring of

the pretensioners. This is to prevent

damage to or accidental activation of

the pretensioner system. Tampering with

the pretensioner system may result in

serious personal injury.

. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for work on and around the

pretensioner system. It is also recom-

mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for

installation of electrical equipment. Un-

authorized electrical test equipment and

probing devices should not be used on

the pretensioner system.

. If you need to dispose of the preten-

sioner or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-

mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for

this service. Correct pretensioner dispo-

sal procedures are set forth in the

appropriate INFINITI Service Manual.

Incorrect disposal procedures could

cause personal injury.

The pretensioner system may activate with

the supplemental air bag system in certain

types of collisions. Working with the seat

belt retractor, it helps tighten the seat belt

when the vehicle becomes involved in

certain types of collisions, helping to

restrain front seat occupants.

The pretensioner is encased with the seat

belt retractor. These seat belts are used the

same way as conventional seat belts.

When a pretensioner seat belt activates,

smoke is released and a loud noise may be

heard. The smoke is not harmful, and it

does not indicate a fire. Care should be

taken not to inhale it as it may cause

irritation and choking. Those with a history

of a breathing condition should get fresh

air promptly.

After pretensioner activation, load limiters

allow the seat belt to release webbing (if

necessary) to reduce forces against the

chest.

The supplemental air bag warning light

is used to indicate malfunctions in the

pretensioner system. (See “Supplemental

air bag warning light” (P.1-54). in this

section for more details.) If the operation of

the supplemental air bag warning light

indicates there is a malfunction, have the

system checked. It is recommended you

visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

When selling your vehicle, we request that

cally turn off when the tire pressure is

adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the

recommended pressure, the vehicle must

be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25

km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the

low tire pressure warning light. Use a tire

pressure gauge to check the tire pressure.

The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning is

active as long as the low tire pressure

warning light remains illuminated.

For additional information, see “Vehicle

information display” (P.2-21), “Tire Pres-

sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5)

and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System

(TPMS)” (P.6-3).

TPMS malfunction:

Y51D-V-E01-56184CED-B10B-45B1-A679-C9C74898B0B9

If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the

low tire pressure warning light will flash for

approximately 1 minute when the ignition

switch is pushed ON. The light will remain

on after the 1 minute. Have the system

checked. It is recommended you visit an

INFINITI retailer for this service. The CHECK

TIRE PRESSURE warning does not appear if

the low tire pressure warning light illumi-

nates to indicate a TPMS malfunction.

For additional information, see “Tire Pres-

sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).

WARNING

. If the light does not illuminate with the

ignition switch pushed ON, have the

vehicle checked as soon as possible. It is

recommended you visit an INFINITI re-

tailer for this service.

. If the light illuminates while driving,

avoid sudden steering maneuvers or

abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,

pull off the road to a safe location and

stop the vehicle as soon as possible.

Driving with under-inflated tires may

permanently damage the tires and in-

crease the likelihood of tire failure.

Serious vehicle damage could occur

and may lead to an accident and could

result in serious personal injury. Check

the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust

the tire pressure to the recommended

COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and

Loading Information label to turn the low

tire pressure warning light OFF. If the

light still illuminates while driving after

adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be

flat or the TPMS may be malfunctioning.

If you have a flat tire, replace it with a

spare tire as soon as possible. If no tire

is flat and all tires are properly inflated,

it is recommended you consult an

INFINITI retailer.

. Since the spare tire is not equipped with

the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted

or a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will flash for approximately 1

minute. The light will remain on after the

1 minute. Have your tires replaced and/

or TPMS system reset as soon as

possible. It is recommended you visit

an INFINITI retailer for these services.

. 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

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM

Y51D-V-E01-B2E64354-87F4-40F9-91AD-DA874CA2A588

The vehicle security system provides visual

and audio alarm signals if someone opens

the doors, hood, or trunk lid when the

system is armed. It is not, however, a

motion detection type system that acti-

vates when a vehicle is moved or when a

vibration occurs.

The system helps deter vehicle theft but

cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the

theft of interior or exterior vehicle compo-

nents in all situations. Always secure your

vehicle even if parking for a brief period.

Never leave your Intelligent Key(s) in the

vehicle, and always lock it when unat-

tended. Be aware of your surroundings,

and park in secure, well-lit areas whenever

possible.

Many devices offering additional protec-

tion, such as component locks, identifica-

tion markers, and tracking systems, are

available at auto supply stores and speci-

alty shops. Your INFINITI retailer may also

offer such equipment. Check with your

insurance company to see if you may be

eligible for discounts for various theft

protection features.

comes on. The security indicator light

stays on for about 30 seconds. The

vehicle security system is now pre-

armed. After about 30 seconds the

vehicle security system automatically

shifts into the armed phase. The

security light begins to flash once every

approximately 3 seconds. If, during this

30-second pre-arm time period, the

door is unlocked, or the ignition switch

is pushed to ACC or ON, the system will

not arm.

. 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

WARNING

. Make sure that all passengers have their

hands, etc. inside the vehicle while it is

in motion and before closing the win-

dows. Use the window lock switch to

prevent unexpected use of the power

windows.

. To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the

vehicle and or its systems, including

entrapment in windows or inadvertent

door lock activation, do not leave chil-

dren, people who require the assistance

of others or pets unattended in your

vehicle. Additionally, the temperature

inside a closed vehicle on a warm day

can quickly become high enough to

cause a significant risk of injury or death

to people and pets.

The power windows operate when the

ignition switch is in the ON position or for

about 45 seconds after the ignition switch

is pushed to the OFF position. If the driver’s

or front passenger’s door is opened during

The HomeLink

Universal Transceiver pro-

vides a convenient way to consolidate the

functions of up to three individual hand-

held transmitters into one built-in device.

HomeLink

Universal Transceiver:

. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)

devices such as garage doors, gates,

home and office lighting, entry door

locks and security systems.

. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No

separate batteries are required. If the

vehicle’s battery is discharged or is

disconnected, HomeLink

will retain all

programming.

When the HomeLink

Universal Transcei-

ver is programmed, retain the original

transmitter for future programming proce-

dures (Example: new vehicle purchases).

Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed

HomeLink

Universal Transceiver buttons

should be erased for security purposes.

For additional information, refer to “Pro-

gramming HomeLink

” (P.2-64).

WARNING

. Do not use the HomeLink

Universal

Transceiver with any garage door opener

that lacks safety stop and reverse

features as required by federal safety

standards. (These standards became

effective for opener models manufac-

tured after April 1, 1982). A garage door

opener which cannot detect an object in

the path of a closing garage door and

then automatically stop and reverse,

does not meet current federal safety

standards. Using a garage door opener

without these features increases the risk

of serious injury or death.

. During the programming procedure your

garage door or security gate will open

and close (if the transmitter is within

range). Make sure that people or objects

are clear of the garage door, gate, etc.

that you are programming.

. Your vehicle’s engine should be turned

off while programming the HomeLink

Universal Transceiver. Do not breathe

exhaust gases; they contain colorless

and odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon

monoxide is dangerous. It can cause

unconsciousness or death.

A key number plate is supplied with your

keys. Record the key number and keep it in

a safe place (such as your wallet), not in

the vehicle. If you lose your keys, it is

recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer

for duplicates by using the key number.

INFINITI does not record any key numbers

so it is very important to keep track of your

key number plate.

A key number is only necessary when you

have lost all keys and do not have one to

duplicate from. If you still have a key, it can

be duplicated without knowing the key

number.

WARNING

. Always have the doors locked while

driving. Along with the use of seat belts,

this provides greater safety in the event

of an accident by helping to prevent

persons from being thrown from the

vehicle. This also helps keep children

and others from unintentionally opening

the doors, and will help keep out

intruders.

. Before opening any door, always look for

and avoid oncoming traffic.

. To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the

vehicle and or its systems, including

entrapment in windows or inadvertent

door lock activation, do not leave chil-

dren, people who require the assistance

of others or pets unattended in your

vehicle. Additionally, the temperature

inside a closed vehicle on a warm day

can quickly become high enough to

cause a significant risk of injury or death

to people and pets.

WARNING

. Radio waves could adversely affect

electric medical equipment. Those who

use a pacemaker should contact the

electric medical equipment manufac-

turer for the possible influences before

use.

. The Intelligent Key transmits radio

waves when the buttons are pushed.

The FAA advises that the radio waves

may affect aircraft navigation and com-

munication systems. Do not operate the

Intelligent Key while on an airplane.

Make sure the buttons are not operated

unintentionally when the unit is stored

during a flight.

The Intelligent Key system can operate all

the doors and the trunk lid using the

tions may affect the Intelligent Key system

operation.

Be sure to read the following before using

the Intelligent Key system.

CAUTION

. Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with

you when operating the vehicle.

. Never leave the Intelligent Key in the

vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

The Intelligent Key is always communicat-

ing with the vehicle as it receives radio

waves. The Intelligent Key system trans-

mits weak radio waves. Environmental

conditions may interfere with the operation

of the Intelligent Key system under the

following operating conditions.

. When operating near a location where

strong radio waves are transmitted,

such as a TV tower, power station and

broadcasting station.

. When in possession of wireless equip-

ment, such as a cellular telephone,

transceiver, and CB radio.

. When the Intelligent Key is in contact

with or covered by metallic materials.

. When any type of radio wave remote

control is used nearby.

The automatic drive positioner system has

four features:

. Entry/exit function

. Seat synchronization function

. Memory storage

. Setting memory function

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION

Y51D-V-E01-34AC63B3-B54E-4551-9D60-0BA261F4A048

This system is designed so that the driver’s

seat and steering column will automati-

cally move when the 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

position.

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

Y51D-V-E01-115CBE46-BE91-4686-ABD6-BC9952E15046

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.

Keep the SET switch pressed for more than

10 seconds to turn on or off the entry/exit

function.

The entry/exit function can also be acti-

vated or canceled if the “Lift Steering

Wheel on Exit” key or “Slide Driver Seat

Back on Exit” key is turned to ON or OFF in

the “Comfort settings” settings. (See “Ve-

hicle information and settings” (P.4-10).)

Initialize entry/exit function

Y51D-V-E01-BC9F8DD7-6ABF-4E49-BF93-F0A27D40B9E9

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.

SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION

Y51D-V-E01-D911BEBD-6096-44D1-85CC-1FF7231C5236

The seat synchronization function automa-

tically adjusts the positions of the steering

wheel and outside mirrors when the seat is

adjusted using the power seat switches.

However, the steering wheel and outside

mirrors will not move if the seat is adjusted

over the maximum thresholds. The system

considers that the steering wheel and

outside mirror adjustments are not neces-

sary because the seat may not be adjusted

for the driving position. Note that the

function is set to disabled as the factory

default setting.

the function by selecting a previously

stored seat memory position using the

memory switches (1 or 2). An Intelligent

Key that was previously linked to the

stored seat memory can also be used to

restart the function.

If a seat position was not previously stored

in the seat memory, restart the function by

adjusting the steering wheel and outside

mirrors manually for your best driving

position and then drive the vehicle above

4 MPH (7 km/h).

WARNING

. Since the spare tire is not equipped with

the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted

or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will

not be indicated, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will flash for approximately 1

minute. The light will remain on after 1

minute. It is recommended you visit an

INFINITI retailer as soon as possible for

tire replacement and/or system reset-

ting.

. Replacing tires with those not originally

specified by INFINITI could affect the

proper operation of the TPMS.

The tire pressure will be displayed for

reference.

The pressure indication “*** kPa” or “***

psi” on the screen means that the pressure

is being measured. After a few driving

trips, the pressure for each tire will be

displayed.

For models with navigation system, to

change the measurement units, select the

SURE information will be displayed on the

screen. Check the pressure of all tires.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on

the heat caused by the vehicle’s traveling

condition and the temperature.

After tire rotation is performed, tire pres-

sure will not be displayed in the actual tire

position. Drive the vehicle at over 25 MPH

(40 km/h) for approximately 10 minutes to

reset the display.

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for

RearView Monitor. Failure to operate the

vehicle in accordance with these system

limitations could result in serious injury or

death.

. The system cannot completely eliminate

blind spots and may not show every

object.

. Underneath the bumper and the corner

areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on

the RearView Monitor because of its

monitoring range limitation. The system

will not show small objects below the

bumper, and may not show objects close

to the bumper or on the ground.

. Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor

differ from actual distance because a

wide-angle lens is used.

. Objects in the RearView Monitor will

appear visually opposite compared to

when viewed in the rear view and outside

mirrors.

Condition:

(211,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

. Use the displayed lines as a reference.

The lines are highly affected by the

number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle

position, road conditions and road

grade.

. Make sure that the trunk lid is securely

closed when backing up.

. Do not put anything on the rearview

camera. The rearview camera is installed

above the license plate.

. When washing the vehicle with high-

pressure water, be sure not to spray it

around the camera. Otherwise, water

may enter the camera unit causing water

condensation on the lens, a malfunction,

fire or an electric shock.

. Do not strike the camera. It is a precision

instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunc-

tion or cause damage resulting in a fire

or an electric shock.

The following are operating limitations and

do not represent a system malfunction:

. When the temperature is extremely high

or low, the screen may not clearly

display objects.

. When strong light is directly coming on

the camera, objects may not be dis-

played clearly.

. Vertical lines may be seen in objects on

the screen. This is due to strong

reflected light from the bumper.

. The screen may flicker under fluores-

cent light.

. The colors of objects on the RearView

Monitor may differ somewhat from the

actual color of objects.

. Objects on the monitor may not be clear

in a dark environment.

. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the

camera, the RearView Monitor may not

display object clearly. Clean the cam-

era.

. Do not use wax on the camera window.

Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth

dampened with mild detergent diluted

WARNING

. The distance guide lines and the vehicle

width lines should be used as a refer-

ence only when the vehicle is on a

paved, level surface. The apparent dis-

tance viewed on the monitor may be

different than the actual distance be-

tween the vehicle and displayed objects.

. Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-

eye view as a reference. The lines and the

bird’s-eye view are greatly affected by

the number of occupants, fuel level,

vehicle position, road condition and road

grade.

. If the tires are replaced with different

sized tires, the predictive course lines

and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-

played incorrectly.

. When driving the vehicle up a hill,

objects viewed in the monitor are further

than they appear. When driving the

vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in

the monitor are closer than they appear.

. Objects in the monitor will appear

visually opposite compared to when

viewed in the rear view and outside

mirrors.

. Use the mirrors or actually look to

properly judge distances to other ob-

jects.

. 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 line 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 will

appear slightly off to the right because

the rear view camera is not installed in

the rear center of the vehicle.

The system is deactivated at speeds above

6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower

speeds.

The colors of the sonar indicators and the

distance guide lines in the front, front-

wide, rear and rear-wide views indicate

different distances to the object.

When the objects are detected, the indi-

cator (green) appears and blinks and the

tone sounds intermittently. When the

vehicle moves closer to the object, the

color of the indicator turns yellow and the

rate of the blinking and the rate of the tone

increase. When the vehicle is very close to

the object, the indicator stops blinking and

turns red, and the tone sounds continu-

ously.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the Moving Object

Detection system could result in serious

injury or death.

. The MOD system is not a substitute for

proper vehicle operation and is not

designed to prevent contact with the

objects surrounding the vehicle. When

maneuvering, always use the outside

mirror and rearview mirror and turn and

check the surrounding to ensure it is

safe to maneuver.

. The system is deactivated at speeds

above 5 MPH (8 km/h). It is reactivated

at lower speeds.

. The MOD system is not designed to

detect the surrounding stationary ob-

jects.

The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system

can inform the driver of the moving objects

surrounding the vehicle when driving out

of garages, maneuvering into parking lots

and in other such instances.

The MOD system detects moving objects by

using image processing technology on the

image shown on the display.

MOD SYSTEM OPERATION

GUID-2C61614B-E471-4566-A778-2CE9605D3242

activate the camera view on the dis-

play.

. When vehicle speed decreases below

approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h) .

. When the ignition switch is placed in

the “OFF” position and then back to the

“ON” position.

When the MOD system detects moving

objects near the vehicle, the yellow frame

will be displayed on the view where the

objects are detected and a chime will

sound once. While the MOD system con-

tinues to detect moving objects, the yellow

frame continues to be displayed.

SERVICING CLIMATE CONTROL

Y51D-V-E01-88385B5B-392F-4C76-AE03-D5B56C8221AD

The climate control system in your INFINITI

is charged with a refrigerant designed with

the environment in mind. This refrigerant

will not harm the earth’s ozone layer.

However, special charging equipment and

lubricant are required when servicing your

INFINITI air conditioner. Using improper

refrigerants or lubricants will cause severe

damage to your climate control system.

(See “Capacities and recommended fluids/

lubricants” (P.10-2) for climate control

system refrigerant and lubricant recom-

mendations.)

Your INFINITI retailer will be able to service

your environmentally friendly climate con-

trol system.

WARNING

The system contains refrigerant under high

pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air

conditioner service should be done only by

an experienced technician with the proper

equipment.

In-cabin microfilter

GUID-A9B1EAC7-FAD6-48AC-9268-6D828853AF22

The climate control system is equipped

with a natural grape seed polyphenol filter

which collects and neutralizes dirt, pollen,

dust, allergens (such as cedar pollen, tick

shells) etc. To make sure that the air

conditioner heats, defogs and ventilates

efficiently, replace the filter in accordance

with the specified maintenance intervals

listed in the “9. Maintenance and sche-

dules” section. It is recommended to see

an INFINITI retailer to replace the filter.

The filter should be replaced if the air flow

decreases significantly or if windows fog

up easily when operating the heater or air

conditioner.

Radio reception is affected by station

signal strength, distance from radio trans-

mitter, buildings, bridges, mountains and

other external influences. Intermittent

changes in reception quality normally are

caused by these external influences.

Using a cellular phone in or near the

vehicle may influence radio reception

quality.

Radio reception:

Y51D-V-E01-03506F87-BD6F-4727-8E30-6EB8E3E35A95

Your INFINITI radio system is equipped with

state-of-the-art electronic circuits to en-

hance radio reception. These circuits are

designed to extend reception range, and to

enhance the quality of that reception.

However there are some general character-

istics of both FM and AM radio signals that

can affect radio reception quality in a

moving vehicle, even when the finest

equipment is used. These characteristics

are completely normal in a given reception

area, and do not indicate any malfunction

in your INFINITI radio system.

Reception conditions will constantly

change because of vehicle movement.

Buildings, terrain, signal distance and

interference from other vehicles can work

against ideal reception. Described below

are some of the factors that can affect your

radio reception.

Some cellular phones or other devices may

cause interference or a buzzing noise to

come from the audio system speakers.

Storing the device in a different location

may reduce or eliminate the noise.

SAA0306

FM radio reception:

Y51D-V-E01-C618FC1A-712C-4BEB-914F-6CEDD6EE5A8C

Range: FM range is normally limited to 25

to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural

(single station) FM having slightly more

range than stereo FM. External influences

may sometimes interfere with FM station

reception even if the FM station is within

25 miles (40 km). The strength of the FM

signal is directly related to the distance

between the transmitter and receiver. FM

signals follow a line-of-sight path, exhibit-

ing many of the same characteristics as

light. For example they will reflect off

objects.

Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away

from a station transmitter, the signals will

tend to fade and/or drift.

Static and flutter: During signal interfer-

ence from buildings, large hills or due to

antenna position, usually in conjunction

with increased distance from the station

transmitter, static or flutter can be heard.

This can be reduced by lowering the treble

setting to reduce the treble response.

Multipath reception: Because of the reflec-

tive characteristics of FM signals, direct

and reflected signals reach the receiver at

the same time. The signals may cancel

each other, resulting in momentary flutter

or loss of sound.

AM radio reception:

Y51D-V-E01-1B196A20-392E-4AE2-A21E-14C7AEC9B29C

AM signals, because of their low frequency,

can bend around objects and skip along

the ground. In addition, the signals can be

bounced off the ionosphere and bent back

to earth. Because of these characteristics.

AM signals are also subject to interference

as they travel from transmitter to receiver.

Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing

through freeway underpasses or in areas

with many tall buildings. It can also occur

for several seconds during ionospheric

turbulence even in areas where no obsta-

Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical

power lines, electric signs and even traffic

lights.

Satellite radio reception:

Y51D-V-E01-580194D6-6C56-49F4-9FAA-75EEC5BDA0AD

When the satellite radio is used for the first

time or the battery has been replaced, the

satellite radio may not work properly. This

is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10

minutes with the satellite radio ON and the

vehicle outside of any metal or large

Compressed Audio Files (MP3/

WMA/AAC)

Y51D-V-E01-160C0786-6097-4C9B-A08F-48130DD84AED

Explanation of terms:

Y51D-V-E01-3478D977-C1A1-4C79-A18A-237BF8171E1B

. MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures

Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is

the most well known compressed digi-

tal audio file format. This format allows

for near “CD quality” sound, but at a

fraction of the size of normal audio

files. MP3 conversion of an audio track

can reduce the file size by approxi-

mately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1

kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually

no perceptible loss in quality. The

compression reduces certain parts of

sound that seem inaudible to most

people.

. WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is

a compressed audio format created by

Microsoft as an alternative to MP3. The

WMA codec offers greater file compres-

sion than the MP3 codec, enabling

storage of more digital audio tracks in

the same amount of space when

compared to MP3s at the same level

of quality.

. AAC/M4A — Advanced Audio Coding

(AAC) is a lossy audio compression

format. Audio files that have been

encoded with AAC are generally smaller

in size and deliver a higher quality of

sound than MP3.

. Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number

of bits per second used by a digital

music file. The size and quality of a

compressed digital audio file is deter-

mined by the bit rate used when

encoding the file.

. Sampling frequency — Sampling fre-

quency is the rate at which the samples

of a signal are converted from analog to

digital (A/D conversion) per second.

. Multisession — Multisession is one of

the methods for writing data to media.

Writing data once to the media is called

a single session, and writing more than

once is called a multisession.

. ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the

part of the encoded MP3 or WMA file

that contains information about the

digital music file such as song title,

artist, album title, encoding bit rate,

track time duration, etc. ID3 tag in-

formation is displayed on the Album/

Artist/Track title line on the display.

Troubleshooting guide:

Y51D-V-E01-928390C7-8DCD-4CB3-9428-999B9934AA76

Symptom Cause and Countermeasure

Cannot play

Check if the disc or USB device was inserted correctly.

Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.

Check if there is condensation inside the player, and if there is, wait until the condensation is gone (about 1 hour) before using the

player.

If there is a temperature increase error, the player will play correctly after it returns to the normal temperature.

If there is a mixture of music CD files (CD-DA data) and compressed audio files on a CD, only the music CD files (CD-DA data) will be

played.

Files with extensions other than “.MP3 (.mp3)”, “.WMA (.wma)”, “.AAC (.aac)”, “.M4A (.m4a)”, or “.AA3 (.aa3)” cannot be played. In

addition, the character codes and number of characters for folder names and file names should be in compliance with the

specifications.

Check if the disc or the file is generated in an irregular format. This may occur depending on the variation or the setting of

compressed audio writing applications or other text editing applications.

Check if the finalization process, such as session close and disc close, is done for the disc.

Check if the disc or USB device is protected by copyright.

Poor sound quality Check if the disc is scratched or dirty.

It takes a relatively long time before

the music starts playing.

If there are many folder or file levels on the disc or USB device, some time may be required before the music starts playing.

Music cuts off or skips

The writing software and hardware combination might not match, or the writing speed, writing depth, writing width, etc., might not

match the specifications. Try using the slowest writing speed.

Skipping with high bit rate files Skipping may occur with large quantities of data, such as for high bit rate data.

Move immediately to the next song

when playing.

If an unsupported compressed audio file has been given a supported extension like .MP3, or when play is prohibited by copyright

protection, the player will skip to the next song.

The songs do not play back in the

desired order.

The playback order is the order in which the files were written by the writing software, so the files might not play in the desired order.

Random/Shuffle may be active on the audio system or on a USB device.

STREAMING AUDIO

(models with navigation system)

Y51D-V-E01-36DEE379-B7D8-412E-A914-AB12F1AA9C61

Your INFINITI is equipped with Bluetooth

Streaming Audio. If you have a compatible

Bluetooth

device with streaming audio

(A2DP profile), you can set up the wireless

connection between your Bluetooth

de-

vice and the in-vehicle audio system. This

connection allows you to listen to the audio

from the Bluetooth

device using your

vehicle speakers. It also may allow basic

control of the device for playing and

skipping audio files using the AVRCP

Bluetooth

profile. All Bluetooth

Devices

do not have the same level of controls for

AVRCP. Please consult the manual for your

Bluetooth

Device for more details.

Once your Bluetooth

device is connected

to the in-vehicle audio system, it will

automatically reconnect whenever the de-

vice is present in the vehicle and you select

Bluetooth

Audio from your audio system.

You do not need to manually reconnect for

each usage.

Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth

functions share the same frequency band

(2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth

and the

wireless LAN functions at the same time

may slow down or disconnect the commu-

nication and cause undesired noise. It is

recommended that you turn off the wire-

less LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the Bluetooth

functions.

The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following solutions.

Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.

Symptom Solution

The system fails to interpret the com-

mand correctly.

1. Ensure that the command is valid. (See “INFINITI Voice Recognition system (models with navigation system)” (P.4-122).)

2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.

3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the vehicle.

4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on). NOTE: If it is too noisy to use

the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.

5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.

The system consistently selects the

wrong voicetag.

1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “Quick Dial” (P.4-101).)

2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.

How to speak commands:

Y51D-V-E01-29E9A3E4-15BA-44F7-93A8-C1D55DFB6540

The Voice Recognition System requires a

certain way to speak voice commands.

Speak normally and clearly in the direction

of the microphone (located in front of the

RearView mirror). Every digit of the number

must be spoken individually and in a

normal manner. The hands-free mode will

work best when the telephone number is

spoken in blocks of three to five digits.

After each spoken block is terminated, the

system will repeat the three to five digits

and wait for you to speak the next digit or

block of digits required for the telephone

number.

See “List of voice commands” (P.4-114) for

the appropriate commands that can be

spoken for the hands-free mode system.

Example:

In order to initiate a call, speak “Phone-

book”.

INFO

. If you are controlling the telephone

system by voice command for the first

time or do not know the appropriate

voice command, speak “Help”. The

system announces the available com-

mands.

. When you speak numbers, you can

speak both “zero” or “oh” for “0”.

Personal vocabulary (voicetags):

Y51D-V-E01-F8386A90-F7F1-4331-A3AA-B743C504B777

Voice Recognition System is equipped with

the function called “voicetags”, which can

be associated with the phone number and

name in the phonebook. Using the voice

tag will automatically generate a speed

dial to the registered number.

See “Phonebook registration” (P.4-116).

Condition:

(293,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

You can call the identified number using

the following command: “Dial” followed by

the voice tag.

Dialling a name with a voice tag:

Y51D-V-E01-9D8CB807-639A-4876-9716-49209FF89C0C

It is possible to call up a name via a voice

tag instead of a number, provided the

name and number of your correspondent

has been previously stored in the phone-

book.

Dial via a voice tag, according to the

following procedure.

1. Push the

button.

2. The system replies “please say a

command after the beep. Available

commands are: Call, Phonebook, Re-

cent Calls, Connect Phone or Help”.

3. Give your instructions to the system by

saying: “Dial John” for example (“John”

must have been previously set as a

voice tag for John’s phone number) or

“Dial One” if John is classified as one in

the phonebook.

If the system cannot understand your

command, repeat it according to the

recommendations mentioned in “How

to speak commands” (P.4-112).

4. If the given name (voice tag) is correct,

the phone system will dial the number

registered for “John”.

How to speak numbers:

Y51D-V-E01-7CD20C30-F9FC-4335-B1D1-C001290787AC

INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a cer-

tain way to speak numbers when giving

voice commands. Refer to the following

examples.

General rule

Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used.

(For example, if you would like to say 500,

“five zero zero” can be used, but “five

hundred” cannot.)

Examples

. 1-800-662-6200

— “One eight zero zero six six two six

two zero zero”

Improving Recognition of Phone numbers

You can improve the recognition of phone

numbers by saying the phone number in

three groups of numbers. For example,

when you try to call 800-662-6200, say

“eight zero zero” first, and the system will

then ask you for the next three digits. Then,

say “six six two”. After recognition, the

system will then ask for the last four digits.

Say, “six two zero zero”. Using this method

of phone digit entry can improve recogni-

tion performance.

When speaking a house number, speak the

number “0” as “zero”. If the letter “o (Oh)”

is included in the house number, it will not

be recognized as the number “0 (zero)”

even if you speak “oh” instead of “zero”.

Please speak “zero” for the number “0

(zero)”, “oh” for the letter “o (oh)”

Send digits using dial tone:

GUID-8D560EC0-DC9D-4917-B795-F7EDFCC730D4

. Press the TALK switch during a

phone call.

. The menu will be launched and you will

be provided with the following gui-

dance: "Please say the digits to dial".

. After guidance, say the digits of the

number you want to send. After this,

the digits that have been recognized

will be read out.

. If you press the ENTER button on the

steering wheel or on the INFINITI con-

troller, the selected digits will be sent.

. You can also speak “800-662-6200”

(10 continuous digits) or “662-6200” (7

continuous digits), if the area code is

not necessary. However, the 3-3-4 digit

grouping is recommended for improved

recognition. (See “How to speak num-

bers” earlier in this section.)

. You can only say a phone number using

the 3-3-4 grouping, 7 digits, and 10

digits using this command. Please use

the “International Call” command for

all other formats.

. If you say “Change Number” during

phone number entry, the system will

automatically request that you repeat

the number using the 3-3-4 format. In

this case please say the area code first

and then follow the prompts.

. Do not add a “1” in front of the area

code when speaking phone numbers.

. If the system does not recognize your

command, please try repeating the

command using a natural voice. Speak-

ing too slow or too loudly may further

decrease recognition performance.

INFINITI Voice Recognition requires a cer-

tain way to speak numbers when giving

voice commands. Refer to the following

examples.

General rule

Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used.

(For example, if you would like to say 500,

“five zero zero” can be used, but “five

hundred” cannot.

Phone numbers

Speak phone numbers according to the

following examples:

. 1-800-662-6200

— “Dial one eight zero zero six six two

six two zero zero.”

Note 1: For the best voice recognition

phone dialing results, say phone numbers

as single digits.

Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as “five

five five six thousands”.

Note 3: When speaking a house number,

speak the number “0” as “zero”. If the

letter “o (Oh)” is included in the house

number, it will not be recognized as the

number “0 (zero)” even if you speak “oh”

instead of “zero”. Please speak “zero” for

the number “0 (zero)”, “oh” for the letter

“o (oh)”.

Send digits using dial tone:

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Y51D-V-E01-AD6B5BD1-5F66-4880-B4BB-AABD3B4F264B

The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in

this guide for the appropriate error.

Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved.

Symptom/error message Solution

The system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “Command List” (P.4-128).

2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.

3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive, for example, windows open or defrost on.

NOTE:

If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.

4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place.

The system consistently selects the wrong voicetag in

the Quick Dial.

1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “Bluetooth

Hands-Free Phone

System (models with navigation system)” (P.4-97).)

2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.

5-4 Starting and driving

Y51D-V-E01-5E9F6826-E366-4CA8-A25F-30A9D8D41D04

WARNING

. Do not leave children or adults who

would normally require the support of

others alone in your vehicle. Pets should

not be left alone either. They could

accidentally injure themselves or others

through inadvertent operation of the

vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,

temperatures in a closed vehicle could

quickly become high enough to cause

severe or possibly fatal injuries to

people or animals.

. Closely supervise children when they are

around cars to prevent them from play-

ing and becoming locked in the trunk

where they could be seriously injured.

Keep the car locked, with the rear

seatback and trunk lid securely latched

when not in use, and prevent children’s

access to car keys.

EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)

Y51D-V-E01-BD7897F9-A61E-41DB-ADF1-D5A23F7D7029

WARNING

. Do not breathe exhaust gases; they

contain colorless and odorless carbon

monoxide. Carbon monoxide is danger-

ous. It can cause unconsciousness or

death.

. If you suspect that exhaust fumes are

entering the vehicle, drive with all

windows fully open, and have the vehicle

inspected immediately.

. Do not run the engine in closed spaces

such as a garage.

. Do not park the vehicle with the engine

running for any extended length of time.

. Keep the trunk lid closed while driving,

otherwise exhaust gases could be drawn

into the passenger compartment. If you

must drive with the trunk lid open, follow

these precautions:

1) Open all the windows.

2) Set the

air recirculation to off

and the fan control to high to

circulate the air.

. If electrical wiring or other cable con-

nections must pass to a trailer through

the seal on the trunk lid or the body,

follow the manufacturer’s recommenda-

tion to prevent carbon monoxide entry

into the vehicle.

. The exhaust system and body should be

inspected by a qualified mechanic when-

ever:

—

The vehicle is raised for service.

—

You suspect that exhaust fumes are

entering into the passenger compart-

ment.

—

You notice a change in the sound of

the exhaust system.

—

You have had an accident involving

damage to the exhaust system,

underbody, or rear of the vehicle.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING AND

DRIVING

Condition:

THREE-WAY CATALYST

Y51D-V-E01-7B30066F-F327-4FBC-9926-F97EA49A5335

The three-way catalyst is an emission

control device installed in the exhaust

system. Exhaust gases in the three-way

catalyst are burned at high temperatures to

help reduce pollutants.

WARNING

. The exhaust gas and the exhaust system

are very hot. Keep people, animals or

flammable materials away from the

exhaust system components.

. Do not stop or park the vehicle over

flammable materials such as dry grass,

waste paper or rags. They may ignite and

cause a fire.

CAUTION

. Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits

from leaded gasoline seriously reduce

the three-way catalyst’s ability to help

reduce exhaust pollutants.

. Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions

in the ignition, fuel injection, or elec-

trical systems can cause overrich fuel

flow into the three-way catalyst, causing

it to overheat. Do not keep driving if the

engine misfires, or if noticeable loss of

performance or other unusual operating

conditions are detected. Have the vehicle

inspected promptly. It is recommended

you visit an INFINITI retailer for this

service.

. Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel

level. Running out of fuel could cause the

engine to misfire, damaging the three-

way catalyst.

. Do not race the engine while warming it

up.

. Do not push or tow your vehicle to start

the engine.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-

TEM (TPMS)

Y51D-V-E01-7446E60A-99AE-4231-B060-531A4A4212AC

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),

should be checked monthly when cold and

inflated to the inflation pressure recom-

mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the

vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure

label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different

size than the size indicated on the vehicle

placard or tire inflation pressure label, you

should determine the proper tire inflation

pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle

has been equipped with a Tire Pressure

Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates

a low tire pressure telltale when one or

more of your tires is significantly under-

inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire

pressure telltale illuminates, you should

stop and check your tires as soon as

possible, and inflate them to the proper

pressure. Driving on a significantly under-

inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and

can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also

reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,

and may affect the vehicle’s handling and

stopping ability.

Please note that the TPMS is not a

substitute for proper tire maintenance,

and it is the driver’s responsibility to

maintain correct tire pressure, even if

under-inflation has not reached the level

to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire

pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a

TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate

when the system is not operating properly.

The TPMS malfunction indicator is com-

bined with the low tire pressure telltale.

When the system detects a malfunction,

Starting and driving 5-5

5-6 Starting and driving

the telltale will flash for approximately one

minute and then remain continuously

illuminated. This sequence will continue

upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long

as the malfunction exists. When the mal-

function indicator is illuminated, the sys-

tem may not be able to detect or signal low

tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunc-

tions may occur for a variety of reasons,

including the installation of replacement or

alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that

prevent the TPMS from functioning prop-

erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction

telltale after replacing one or more tires or

wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the

replacement or alternate tires and wheels

allow the TPMS to continue to function

properly.

Additional information

Y51D-V-E01-E2788307-A48C-48C5-80A6-AA66F3015BBF

. Since the spare tire is not equipped

with the TPMS, the TPMS does not

monitor the tire pressure of the spare

tire.

. The TPMS will activate only when the

vehicle is driven at speeds above 16

MPH (25 km/h). Also, this system may

not detect a sudden drop in tire

pressure (for example a flat tire while

driving).

. The low tire pressure warning light does

not automatically turn off when the tire

pressure is adjusted. After the tire is

inflated to the recommended pressure,

the vehicle must be driven at speeds

above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the

TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure

warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge

to check the tire pressure.

. The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning

appears in the vehicle information dis-

play when the low tire pressure warn-

ing light is illuminated and low tire

pressure is detected. The CHECK TIRE

PRESSURE warning turns off when the

low tire pressure warning light turns

off.

The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning

does not appear if the tire pressure

warning light illuminates to indicate a

TPMS malfunction.

. Tire pressure rises and falls depending

on the heat caused by the vehicle’s

operation and the outside temperature.

Do not reduce the tire pressure after

driving because the tire pressure rises

after driving. Low outside temperature

can lower the temperature of the air

inside the tire which can cause a lower

tire inflation pressure. This may cause

the low tire pressure warning light to

illuminate. If the warning light illumi-

nates in low ambient temperature,

check the tire pressure for all four tires.

. You can also check the pressure of all

tires (except the spare tire) on the

display screen. The order of the tire

pressure figures displayed on the

screen does not correspond with the

actual order of the tire position. See

“TIRE PRESSURE information” (P.4-12).

For additional information, see “Low tire

pressure warning light” (P.2-15) and “Tire

Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.6-

3).

WARNING

. If the low tire pressure warning light

illuminates or LOW PRESSURE informa-

tion is displayed on the monitor screen

while driving, avoid sudden steering

maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce

vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe

location and stop the vehicle as soon as

possible. Driving with under-inflated

tires may permanently damage the tires

and increase the likelihood of tire fail-

ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur

and may lead to an accident and could

result in serious personal injury. Check

the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust

the tire pressure to the recommended

COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and

Loading Information label to turn the low

tire pressure warning light OFF. If the

light still illuminates while driving after

adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be

flat or the TPMS may be malfunctioning.

If you have a flat tire, replace it with a

spare tire as soon as possible. If no tire

is flat and all tires are properly inflated,

it is recommended you consult an

INFINITI retailer.

. Since the spare tire is not equipped with

the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted

or a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will flash for approximately 1

minute. The light will remain on after 1

minute. Have your tires replaced and/or

TPMS system reset as soon as possible.

It is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for these services.

. Replacing tires with those not originally

specified by INFINITI could affect the

proper operation of the TPMS.

. Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol

tire sealant into the tires, as this may

cause a malfunction of the tire pressure

sensors.

CAUTION

. The TPMS may not function properly

when the wheels are equipped with tire

chains or the wheels are buried in snow.

. Do not place metalized film or any metal

parts (antenna, etc.) on the windows.

This may cause poor reception of the

signals from the tire pressure sensors,

and the TPMS will not function properly.

Some devices and transmitters may tem-

porarily interfere with the operation of the

TPMS and cause the low tire pressure

warning light to illuminate. Some exam-

ples are:

. Facilities or electric devices using simi-

lar radio frequencies are near the

vehicle.

. If a transmitter set to similar frequen-

cies is being used in or near the

vehicle.

. If a computer (or similar equipment) or a

DC/AC converter is being used in or

near the vehicle.

Low tire pressure warning light may

illuminate in the following cases.

. If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel

and tire without TPMS.

. If the TPMS has been replaced and the

ID has not been registered.

. If the wheel is not originally specified by

INFINITI.

WARNING

Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe and

prudent manner may result in loss of control

or an accident.

Be alert and drive defensively at all times.

Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid exces-

sive speed, high speed cornering, or

sudden steering maneuvers, because

these driving practices could cause you to

lose control of your vehicle. As with any

vehicle, a loss of control could result in a

collision with other vehicles or objects, or

cause the vehicle to rollover, particularly if

the loss of control causes the vehicle to

slide sideways. Be attentive at all times,

and avoid driving when tired. Never drive

when under the influence of alcohol or

drugs (including prescription or over-the-

counter drugs which may cause drowsi-

ness). Always wear your seat belt as

outlined in the “Seat belts” (P.1-10) and

also instruct your passengers to do so.

Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in

collisions and rollovers. In a rollover crash,

an unbelted or improperly belted person is

significantly more likely to be injured or

killed than a person properly wearing a

seat belt.

OFF-ROAD RECOVERY

Y51D-V-E01-F5A6BE1D-A9F3-43EF-861B-3D13D68A61FE

If driving the right side or left side wheels

may unintentionally leave the road surface.

Maintain control of the vehicle by following

the procedure below. Please note that this

procedure is only a general guide. The

vehicle must be driven as appropriate

based on the conditions of the vehicle,

road and traffic.

1. Remain calm and do not overreact.

2. Do not apply the brakes.

3. Maintain a firm grip on the steering

wheel with both hands and try to hold a

straight course.

4. When appropriate, slowly release the

accelerator pedal to gradually slow the

vehicle.

5. If there is nothing in the way, steer the

vehicle to follow the road while the

vehicle speed is reduced. Do not

attempt to drive the vehicle back onto

the road surface until vehicle speed is

reduced.

6. When it is safe to do so, gradually turn

the steering wheel until both tires

return to the road surface. When all

tires are on the road surface, steer the

vehicle to stay in the appropriate

driving lane.

If you decide that it is not safe to

return the vehicle to the road surface

based on vehicle, road or traffic

conditions, gradually slow the vehi-

cle to a stop in a safe place off the

road.

RAPID AIR PRESSURE LOSS

Y51D-V-E01-16543328-232A-49F0-A2DA-1929AFAB3A39

Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can

occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged

due to hitting a curb or pothole. Rapid air

pressure loss can also be caused by driving

on under-inflated tires.

Rapid air pressure loss can affect the

handling and stability of the vehicle,

especially at highway speeds.

Help prevent rapid air pressure loss by

maintaining the correct air pressure and

visually inspect the tires for wear and

damage. See “Wheels and tires” (P.8-32).

If a tire rapidly loses air pressure or

“blows-out” while driving maintain control

of the vehicle by following the procedure

below. Please note that this procedure is

only a general guide. The vehicle must be

driven as appropriate based on the condi-

tions of the vehicle, road and traffic.

WARNING

The following actions can increase the

chance of losing control of the vehicle if

there is a sudden loss of tire air pressure.

Losing control of the vehicle may cause a

collision and result in personal injury.

. The vehicle generally moves or pulls in

the direction of the flat tire.

. Do not rapidly apply the brakes.

. Do not rapidly release the accelerator

pedal.

. Do not rapidly turn the steering wheel.

1. Remain calm and do not overreact.

2. Maintain a firm grip on the steering

wheel with both hands and try to hold a

straight course.

3. When appropriate, slowly release the

accelerator pedal to gradually slow the

vehicle.

4. Gradually steer the vehicle to a safe

location off the road and away from

traffic if possible.

5. Lightly apply the brake pedal to gradu-

ally stop the vehicle.

6. Turn on the hazard warning flashers

and either contact a roadside emer-

gency service to change the tire or see

“Changing a flat tire” (P.6-4).

DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND

DRIVING

Y51D-V-E01-13296C69-D1F5-4782-BD1E-984365D4687A

WARNING

Never drive under the influence of alcohol or

drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream reduces

coordination, delays reaction time and im-

pairs judgement. Driving after drinking

alcohol increases the likelihood of being

involved in an accident injuring yourself and

others. Additionally, if you are injured in an

accident, alcohol can increase the severity

of the injury.

INFINITI is committed to safe driving.

However, you must choose not to drive

under the influence of alcohol. Every year

thousands of people are injured or killed in

alcohol-related accidents. Although the

local laws vary on what is considered to

be legally intoxicated, the fact is that

alcohol affects all people differently and

most people underestimate the effects of

alcohol.

Remember, drinking and driving don’t mix!

And that is true for drugs, too (over-the-

counter, prescription, and illegal drugs).

TIONS (AWD models)

Y51D-V-E01-08E06FA9-D35F-46BB-B430-9A69FFC70C4E

WARNING

. Do not drive beyond the performance

capability of the tires, even with Intelli-

gent AWD engaged. Accelerating

quickly, sharp steering maneuvers or

sudden braking may cause loss of

control.

. Always use tires of the same type, size,

brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or

radial), and tread pattern on all four

wheels. Install tire chains on the rear

wheels when driving on slippery roads

and drive carefully.

. This vehicle is not designed for offroad

(rough road) use. Do not drive on sandy

or muddy roads that tires may get stuck

in.

. For AWD equipped vehicles, do not

attempt to raise two wheels off the

ground and shift the transmission to

any D (Drive) or R (Reverse) position with

the engine running. Doing so may result

in drivetrain damage or unexpected

vehicle movement which could result in

serious vehicle damage or personal

injury.

. Do not attempt to test an AWD equipped

vehicle on a 2-wheel dynamometer,

(such as the dynamometers used by

some states for emissions testing), or

similar equipment even if the other two

wheels are raised off the ground. Make

sure you inform test facility personnel

that your vehicle is equipped with AWD

before it is placed on a dynamometer.

Using the wrong test equipment may

result in drivetrain damage or unex-

pected vehicle movement which could

result in serious vehicle damage or

personal injury.

. When a wheel is off the ground due to an

unlevel surface, do not spin the wheel

excessively.

Adaptive Shift Control (ASC)

GUID-2BE0D0DF-855C-4440-8D03-E1AE9EF912E9

The adaptive shift control system automa-

tically operates when the transmission is in

the "D" (drive) position and selects an

appropriate gear depending on the road

conditions such as uphill, downhill or

curving roads.

Control on uphill and curving roads:

GUID-9F5734E6-2F6C-4CB3-8BE7-B412E0433748

A low gear is maintained that suits the

degree of the slope or curve to allow

smooth driving with a small number of

shifts.

Control on downhill roads:

GUID-E38D9608-C5AE-47FF-81F3-C77A3D1D4450

The adaptive shift control system shifts to

a low gear that suits the degree of the

slope, and uses the engine braking to

reduce the number of times that the brake

must be used.

Control on winding roads:

GUID-707C61D1-8F07-4BBD-BAF7-D61B5A87C9DC

A low gear is maintained on continuous

curves that involve repeated acceleration

and deceleration, so that smooth accelera-

tion is available instantly when the accel-

erator pedal is depressed.

NOTE:

. Adaptive shift control may not operate

when the transmission oil temperature

is low immediately after the start of

driving or when it is very hot.

. During some driving situations, hard

braking for example, the adaptive shift

control may automatically operate. The

transmission may automatically shift

to a lower gear for engine braking. This

increases engine speed but not vehicle

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the LDW and LDP

systems could result in serious personal

injury or death.

. The LDW and LDP systems will not steer

the vehicle or prevent loss of control. It

is the driver’s responsibility to stay

alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in

the traveling lane, and be in control of

the vehicle at all times.

. The LDP system may activate if you

change lanes without first activating

your turn signal or, for example, if a

construction zone directs traffic to cross

an existing lane marker. If this occurs,

you may need to apply corrective steer-

ing to complete your lane change.

. Because the LDP system may not acti-

vate under the road, weather, and lane

marker conditions described in this

section, it may not activate every time

your vehicle begins to leave its lane and

you will need to apply corrective steer-

ing.

. Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system

— warns the driver with a warning light

and chime that the vehicle is begin-

ning to leave the driving lane.

. Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) system

— warns the driver with a warning light

tions for proper use of the BSW system

could result in serious injury or death.

. The BSW system is not a replacement for

proper driving procedure and is not

designed to prevent contact with vehi-

cles or objects. When changing lanes,

always use the side and rear mirrors and

turn and look in the direction your

vehicle will move to ensure it is safe to

change lanes. Never rely solely on the

BSW system.

. There is a limitation to the detection

capability of the radar. Not every moving

object or vehicle will be detected. Using

the BSW system under some road,

ground, lane marker, traffic or weather

conditions could lead to improper sys-

tem operation. Always rely on your own

operation to avoid accidents.

The BSW system helps alert the driver of

other vehicles in adjacent lanes when

changing lanes.

If the radar sensors detect a vehicle in the

detection zone, the side indicator light

illuminates.

If the turn signal is then activated, the

system chimes (twice) and the side indi-

cator light flashes. The side indicator light

continues to flash until the detected

vehicle leaves the detection zone.

NOTE:

. The side indicator light illuminates for a

few seconds when the ignition switch

is placed in the ON position.

. The brightness of the side indicator

light is adjusted automatically depend-

ing on the brightness of the ambient

light.

. If a vehicle comes into the detection

zone after the driver activates the turn

signal, then only the side indicator

light flashes and no chime sounds. For

additional information, refer to “BSW

BSW SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

GUID-5C0A3FF6-99F4-4B33-8083-A4C5C2476DDB

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for

the BSW system. Failure to operate the

vehicle in accordance with these system

limitations could result in serious injury or

death.

. The BSW system cannot detect all

vehicles under all conditions.

. The radar sensors may not be able to

detect and activate BSW when certain

objects are present such as:

—

Pedestrians, bicycles, animals.

—

Vehicles such as motorcycles, low

height vehicles, or high ground

clearance vehicles.

—

Oncoming vehicles.

—

Vehicles remaining in the detection

zone when you accelerate from a

stop.

—

A vehicle merging into an adjacent

lane at a speed approximately the

same as your vehicle.

—

A vehicle approaching rapidly from

behind.

—

A vehicle which your vehicle over-

takes rapidly.

—

A vehicle that passes through the

detection zone quickly.

. The radar sensor’s detection zone is

designed based on a standard lane

width. When driving in a wider lane, the

radar sensors may not detect vehicles in

an adjacent lane. When driving in a

narrow lane, the radar sensors may

detect vehicles driving two lanes away.

. The radar sensors are designed to ignore

most stationary objects, however ob-

jects such as guardrails, walls, foliage

and parked vehicles may occasionally be

detected. This is a normal operation

condition.

. The following conditions may reduce the

ability of the radar to detect other

vehicles:

—

Severe weather

—

Road spray

—

Ice/frost/snow build-up on the ve-

hicle

—

Dirt build-up on the vehicle

. Do not attach stickers (including trans-

parent material), install accessories or

apply additional paint near the radar

sensors. These conditions may reduce

the ability of the radar to detect other

vehicles.

. Excessive noise (for example, audio

system volume, open vehicle window)

will interfere with the chime sound, and

it may not be heard.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the BCI system could

result in serious injury or death.

. The BCI system is not a replacement for

proper driving procedure, is not de-

signed to prevent contact with vehicles

or objects and does not provide full

brake power. When backing out of

parking spaces, always use the inside

and rear mirrors and turn and look in the

direction you will move. Never rely solely

on the BCI system.

. There is a limitation to the detection

capability of the radar or the sonar.

Using the BCI system under some road,

ground, traffic or weather conditions

could lead to improper system opera-

tion. Always rely on your own operation

to avoid accidents.

The BCI system can help alert the driver of

an approaching vehicle or objects behind

the vehicle when the driver is backing out

of a parking space.

JVS0735X

The BCI system uses radar sensors

installed on both sides near the rear

bumper to detect an approaching vehicle

and sonar sensors

system gives visual and audible warnings.

If the driver does not apply the brakes, the

system automatically applies the brake for

a moment when the vehicle is moving

backwards. After the automatic brake

application, the driver must depress the

brake pedal to maintain brake pressure. If

the driver’s foot is on the accelerator

pedal, the system pushes the accelerator

upward before applying the brake. If you

continue to accelerate, the system will not

engage the brake.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the ICC system could

result in serious injury or death.

. ICC is not a collision avoidance or

warning device. For highway use only

and it is not intended for congested

areas or city driving. Failure to apply the

brakes could result in an accident.

. Always observe posted speed limits and

do not set the speed over them.

. Always drive carefully and attentively

when using either cruise control mode.

Read and understand the Owner’s Man-

ual thoroughly before using the cruise

control. To avoid serious injury or death,

do not rely on the system to prevent

accidents or to control the vehicle’s

speed in emergency situations. Do not

use cruise control except in appropriate

road and traffic conditions.

. In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise

control mode, a warning chime will not

sound to warn you if you are too close to

the vehicle ahead. Pay special attention

to the distance between your vehicle and

the vehicle ahead of you or a collision

could occur.

The ICC system maintains a selected

distance from the vehicle in front of you

within the speed range of 0 to 90 MPH (0 to

144 km/h) up to the set speed. The set

speed can be selected by the driver

between 20 to 90 MPH (32 to 144 km/h).

The vehicle travels at a set speed when the

road ahead is clear.

The ICC system can be set to one of two

cruise control modes.

. Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode:

For maintaining a selected distance

between your vehicle and the vehicle

in front of you up to the preset speed.

. Conventional (fixed speed) cruise con-

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE DISTANCE

CONTROL MODE

Y51D-V-E01-8FBC4AFD-22C3-46CC-855D-F92C37DF0F5C

In the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode, the ICC system automatically main-

tains a selected distance from the vehicle

traveling in front of you according to that

vehicle’s speed (up to the set speed), or at

the set speed when the road ahead is clear.

The system is intended to enhance the

operation of the vehicle when following a

vehicle traveling in the same lane and

direction.

If the radar sensor

detects a slower

moving vehicle ahead, the system will

reduce the vehicle speed so that your

vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the

selected distance.

The system automatically controls the

throttle and applies the brakes (up to

approximately 40% of vehicle braking

power) if necessary.

The detection range of the sensor is

approximately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode operation

Y51D-V-E01-C783084C-2815-4955-98EF-A68E28DCDCF8

The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode is designed to maintain a selected

distance and reduce the speed to match

the slower vehicle ahead; the system will

decelerate the vehicle as necessary and if

the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the

vehicle decelerates to a standstill. How-

ever, the ICC system can only apply up to

approximately 40% of the vehicle’s total

braking power. This system should only be

used when traffic conditions allow vehicle

speeds to remain fairly constant or when

vehicle speeds change gradually. If a

vehicle moves into the traveling lane ahead

or if a vehicle traveling ahead rapidly

decelerates, the distance between vehicles

may become closer because the ICC system

cannot decelerate the vehicle quickly en-

ough. If this occurs, the ICC system will

sound a warning chime and blink the

system display to notify the driver to take

necessary action.

The system will cancel and a warning

chime will sound if the speed is below

approximately 15 MPH (24 km/h) and a

vehicle is not detected ahead. The system

will also disengage when the vehicle goes

above the maximum set speed.

See “Approach warning” (P.5-82).

The following items are controlled in the

vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode:

. When there are no vehicles traveling

ahead, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance

control mode maintains the speed set

by the driver. The set speed range is

between approximately 20 and 90 MPH

(32 and 144 km/h).

. When there is a vehicle traveling ahead,

the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode adjusts the speed to maintain the

distance, selected by driver, from the

vehicle ahead. The adjusting speed

range is up to the set speed. If the

vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the

vehicle decelerates to a standstill with-

in the limitations of the system. The

system will cancel once it judges a

standstill with a warning chime.

. When the vehicle traveling ahead has

moved out from its lane of travel, the

vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode accelerates and maintains vehi-

cle speed up to the set speed.

The ICC system does not control vehicle

speed or warn you when you approach

stationary and slow moving vehicles. You

Condition:

(401,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

must pay attention to vehicle operation to

maintain proper distance from vehicles

ahead when approaching toll gates or

traffic congestion.

SSD0254

When driving on the freeway at a set speed

and approaching a slower traveling vehicle

ahead, the ICC system will adjust the

speed to maintain the distance, selected

by the driver, from the vehicle ahead. If the

vehicle ahead changes lanes or exits the

freeway, the ICC system will accelerate and

maintain the speed up to the set speed.

Pay attention to the driving operation to

maintain control of the vehicle as it

accelerates to the set speed.

The vehicle may not maintain the set speed

on winding or hilly roads. If this occurs, you

will have to manually control the vehicle

speed.

Normally when controlling the distance to a

vehicle ahead, this system automatically

accelerates or decelerates your vehicle

according to the speed of the vehicle

ahead. Depress the accelerator to properly

accelerate your vehicle when acceleration

is required for a lane change. Depress the

brake pedal when deceleration is required

to maintain a safe distance to the vehicle

ahead due to its sudden braking or if a

vehicle cuts in. Always stay alert when

using the ICC system.

WARNING

Listed below are the system limitations for

the ICC system. Failure to operate the

vehicle in accordance with these system

limitations could result in serious injury or

death.

. The system is primarily intended for use

on straight, dry, open roads with light

traffic. It is not advisable to use the

system in city traffic or congested areas.

. This system will not adapt automatically

to road conditions. This system should

be used in evenly flowing traffic. Do not

use the system on roads with sharp

curves, or on icy roads, in heavy rain or

in fog.

. As there is a performance limit to the

distance control function, never rely

solely on the ICC system. This system

does not correct careless, inattentive or

absent-minded driving, or overcome

poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad

weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by

depressing the brake pedal, depending

on the distance to the vehicle ahead and

the surrounding circumstances in order

to maintain a safe distance between

vehicles.

. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the

vehicle decelerates to a standstill within

the limitations of the system. The

system will cancel once it judges that

the vehicle has come to a standstill and

sound a warning chime. To prevent the

vehicle from moving, the driver must

depress the brake pedal.

. Always pay attention to the operation of

control the proper following distance.

The vehicle-to-vehicle distance control

mode of the ICC system may not be able

to maintain the selected distance be-

tween vehicles (following distance) or

selected vehicle speed under some

circumstances.

. The system may not detect the vehicle in

front of you in certain road or weather

conditions. To avoid accidents, never use

the ICC system under the following

conditions:

—

On roads where the traffic is heavy

or there are sharp curves

—

On slippery road surfaces such as

on ice or snow, etc.

—

During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,

etc.)

—

When rain, snow or dirt adhere to

the system sensor

—

On steep downhill roads (the vehi-

cle may go beyond the set vehicle

speed and frequent braking may

result in overheating the brakes)

—

On repeated uphill and downhill

roads

—

When traffic conditions make it

difficult to keep a proper distance

between vehicles because of fre-

quent acceleration or deceleration

. In some road or traffic conditions, a

vehicle or object can unexpectedly come

into the sensor detection zone and cause

automatic braking. You may need to

control the distance from other vehicles

using the accelerator pedal. Always stay

alert and avoid using the ICC system

when it is not recommended in this

section.

The radar sensor will not detect the

following objects:

. Stationary and slow moving vehicles

. Pedestrians or objects in the roadway

. Oncoming vehicles in the same lane

. Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel

lane

The sensor generally detects the signals

returned from the vehicle ahead. Therefore,

if the sensor cannot detect the reflection

from the vehicle ahead, the ICC system

may not maintain the selected distance.

The following are some conditions in which

the sensor cannot detect the signals:

. When the snow or road spray from

traveling vehicles reduces the sensor’s

visibility

. When excessively heavy baggage is

loaded in the rear seat or the trunk of

your vehicle

The ICC system is designed to automati-

cally check the sensor’s operation within

the limitation of the system. When the

sensor is covered with dirt or is obstructed,

the system will automatically be canceled.

If the sensor is covered with ice, a

transparent or translucent vinyl bag, etc.,

the ICC system may not detect them. In

these instances, the vehicle-to-vehicle dis-

tance control mode may not cancel and

may not be able to maintain the selected

following distance from the vehicle ahead.

Be sure to check and clean the sensor

regularly.

A vehicle ahead may move outside of the

detection zone due to its position within

the same lane of travel. Motorcycles may

not be detected in the same lane ahead if

they are traveling offset from the centerline

of the lane. A vehicle that is entering the

lane ahead may not be detected until the

vehicle has completely moved into the

This mode allows driving at a speed

between 25 to 90 MPH (40 to 144 km/h)

without keeping your foot on the accel-

erator pedal.

WARNING

. In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise

control mode, a warning chime does not

sound to warn you if you are too close to

the vehicle ahead, as neither the pre-

sence of the vehicle ahead nor the

vehicle-to-vehicle distance is detected.

. Pay special attention to the distance

between your vehicle and the vehicle

ahead of you or a collision could occur.

. Always confirm the setting in the ICC

system display.

. Do not use the conventional (fixed

speed) cruise control mode when driving

under the following conditions:

—

when it is not possible to keep the

vehicle at a set speed

—

in heavy traffic or in traffic that

varies in speed

—

on winding or hilly roads

—

on slippery roads (rain, snow, ice,

etc.)

—

in very windy areas

. Doing so could cause a loss of vehicle

control and result in an accident.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the DCA system could

result in serious personal injury or death.

. Always drive carefully and attentively

when using the DCA system. Read and

understand the Owner’s Manual thor-

oughly before using the DCA system. To

avoid serious injury or death, do not rely

on the system to prevent accidents or to

control the vehicle’s speed in emergency

situations. Do not use the DCA system

except in appropriate road and traffic

conditions.

. This system is only an aid to assist the

driver and is not a collision warning or

avoidance device. It is the driver’s

responsibility to stay alert, drive safely

and be in control of the vehicle at all

times.

. As there is a performance limit to the

distance control function, never rely

solely on the DCA system. This system

does not correct careless, inattentive or

absent-minded driving, or overcome

poor visibility in rain, fog, or other bad

weather. Decelerate the vehicle speed by

depressing the brake pedal, depending

on the distance to the vehicle ahead and

the surrounding circumstances in order

to maintain a safe distance between

vehicles.

. Always pay attention to the operation of

the vehicle and be ready to manually

decelerate to maintain the proper follow-

ing distance. The DCA system may not be

able to decelerate the vehicle under

some circumstances.

. This system only brakes and moves the

accelerator pedal upward to help assist

the driver to maintain a following dis-

tance from the vehicle ahead. Accelera-

tion should be operated by the driver.

. The DCA system does not control vehicle

speed or warn you when you approach

stationary and slow moving vehicles.You

must pay attention to vehicle operation

to maintain proper distance from vehi-

cles ahead.

. The DCA system automatically decele-

rates your vehicle to help assist the

driver to maintain a following distance

from the vehicle ahead. Manually brake

vehicle suddenly appears in front of you.

Always stay alert when using the DCA

system.

. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the

vehicle decelerates to a standstill within

the limitations of the system. The

system will cancel with a warning chime

once it judges that the vehicle has come

to a standstill. To prevent the vehicle

from moving, the driver must depress

the brake pedal.

The DCA system is intended to assist the

driver in keeping a following distance from

the vehicle ahead traveling in the same

lane and direction.

If the radar sensor

detects a slower

moving vehicle ahead, the system will

reduce the vehicle speed to help assist

the driver to maintain a following distance.

The system automatically controls the

throttle and applies the brakes (up to

approximately 40% of vehicle braking

power) if necessary.

The detection range of the sensor is

approximately 650 ft (200 m) ahead.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the DCA system could

result in serious personal injury or death.

. When the vehicle ahead detection in-

dicator light is not illuminated, system

will not control the vehicle or warn the

driver.

. Never place your foot under the brake

pedal. Your foot may be caught when the

system controls the brake.

. Depending on the position of the accel-

erator pedal, the system may not be able

to assist the driver to release the

accelerator pedal appropriately.

The DCA system brakes and moves the

accelerator pedal upward according to the

distance from and the relative speed of the

vehicle ahead to help assist the driver in

maintaining a following distance. The

system will decelerate as necessary and if

the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the

vehicle decelerates to a standstill. How-

ever, the DCA system can only apply up to

Condition:

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

approximately 40% of the vehicle’s total

braking power. If a vehicle moves into the

traveling lane ahead or if a vehicle travel-

ing ahead rapidly decelerates, the distance

between vehicles may become closer

because the DCA system cannot decelerate

the vehicle quickly enough. If this occurs,

the DCA system will sound a warning chime

and blink the system display to notify the

driver to take necessary action.

See “Approach warning” (P.5-98).

The warning chime may not sound in some

cases when there is a short distance

between vehicles. Some examples are:

. When the vehicles are traveling at the

same speed and the distance between

vehicles is not changing

. When the vehicle ahead is traveling

faster and the distance between vehi-

cles is increasing

. When a vehicle cuts in near your vehicle

The warning chime will not sound when

your vehicle approaches vehicles that are

parked or moving slowly.

NOTE:

The approach warning chime may sound

and the system display may blink when

the radar sensor detects objects on the

side of the vehicle or on the side of the

road. This may cause the DCA system to

decelerate or accelerate the vehicle. The

radar sensor may detect these objects

when the vehicle is driven on winding

roads, narrow roads, hilly roads or when

entering or exiting a curve. In these cases

you will have to manually control the

proper distance ahead of your vehicle.

Also, the sensor sensitivity can be affected

The sensor for the DCA system

located behind the lower grille of the front

bumper.

The DCA system is designed to automati-

cally check the sensor’s operation. When

the sensor is covered with dirt or is

obstructed, the system will automatically

be canceled. If the sensor is covered with

ice, a transparent or translucent vinyl bag,

etc., the DCA system may not detect them.

In these instances, the DCA system may

not be able to decelerate the vehicle

properly. Be sure to check and clean the

sensor regularly.

WARNING

Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-

tions for proper use of the FEB system could

result in serious injury or death.

. The FEB system is a supplemental aid to

the driver. It is not a replacement for the

driver’s attention to traffic conditions or

responsibility to drive safely. It cannot

prevent accidents due to carelessness or

dangerous driving techniques.

. The FEB system does not function in all

driving, traffic, weather and road condi-

tions.

The FEB system can assist the driver when

there is a risk of a forward collision with

the vehicle ahead in the traveling lane.

FEB SYSTEM OPERATION

GUID-420AF242-75C3-4BA7-8970-ABF11446C538

The FEB system operates at speeds above

approximately 3 MPH (5 km/h).

If a risk of a forward collision is detected,

the FEB system will provide the first

warning to the driver by illuminating the

warning in the vehicle information display

and providing an audible warning. In

addition, the FEB system pushes the

accelerator pedal up. If the driver releases

the accelerator pedal, then the system

applies partial braking.

If the driver applies the brakes quickly and

forcefully after the warning, and the FEB

system detects that there is still the

possibility of a forward collision, the

system will automatically increase the

braking force.

If a forward collision is imminent and the

driver does not take action, the FEB system

issues the second visual (flashing) and

audible warning and automatically applies

harder braking.

NOTE:

The vehicle’s stop lights come on when

braking is performed by the FEB system.

Depending on vehicle speed and distance

to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving and

roadway conditions, the system may help

the driver avoid a forward collision or may

help mitigate the consequences of a

collision should one be unavoidable.

If the driver is handling the steering wheel,

accelerating or braking, the FEB system will

function later or will not function.

The automatic braking will cease under the

following conditions:

. When the steering wheel is turned as far

as necessary to avoid a collision.

. When the accelerator pedal is de-

pressed.

. When there is no longer a vehicle

detected ahead.

If the FEB system has stopped the vehicle,

the vehicle will remain at a standstill for

approximately 2 seconds before the brakes

are released.

CAUTION

During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),

follow these recommendations to obtain

maximum engine performance and ensure

the future reliability and economy of your

new vehicle.

Failure to follow these recommendations

may result in shortened engine life and

reduced engine performance.

. Avoid driving for long periods at con-

stant speed, either fast or slow. Do not

run the engine over 4,000 rpm.

. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any

gear.

. Avoid quick starts.

. Avoid hard braking as much as possi-

ble.

GUID-1DF28709-02A5-4AD3-AB92-E5902EB616D8

Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient

Driving Tips to help you achieve the most

fuel economy from your vehicle.

1. Use smooth accelerator and brake

pedal application.

Avoid rapid starts and stops.

Use smooth, gentle accelerator and

brake application whenever possi-

ble.

Maintain constant speed while com-

muting and coast whenever possi-

ble.

2. Maintain constant speed.

Look ahead to try and anticipate and

minimize stops.

Synchronizing your speed with traf-

fic lights allows you to reduce your

number of stops.

Maintaining a steady speed can

minimize red light stops and im-

prove fuel efficiency.

3. Use air conditioning (A/C) at higher

vehicle speeds.

Below 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is more

efficient to open windows to cool the

vehicle due to reduced engine load.

Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is more

efficient to use A/C to cool the

vehicle due to increased aerody-

namic drag.

Recirculating the cool air in the cabin

when the A/C is on reduces cooling

load.

4. Drive at economical speeds and dis-

tances.

Observing the speed limit and not

exceeding 60 MPH (97 km/h) (where

legally allowed) can improve fuel

efficiency due to reduced aerody-

namic drag.

Maintaining a safe following dis-

tance behind other vehicles reduces

unnecessary braking.

Safely monitoring traffic to antici-

pate changes in speed permits

reduced braking and smooth accel-

eration changes.

Select a gear range suitable to road

conditions.

5. Use cruise control.

Using cruise control during highway

driving helps maintain a steady

speed.

Cruise control is particularly effec-

tive in providing fuel savings when

driving on flat terrains.

Condition:

(451,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

6. Plan for the shortest route.

Utilize a map or navigation system to

determine the best route to save

time.

7. Avoid idling.

Shutting off your engine when safe

for stops exceeding 30-60 seconds

saves fuel and reduces emissions.

8. Buy an automated pass for toll roads.

Automated passes permit drivers to

use special lanes to maintain cruis-

ing speed through the toll and avoid

stopping and starting.

9. Winter warm up.

Limit idling time to minimize impact

to fuel economy.

Vehicles typically need no more than

30 seconds of idling at start-up to

effectively circulate the engine oil

before driving.

Your vehicle will reach its ideal

operating temperature more quickly

while driving versus idling.

10.Keeping your vehicle cool.

Park your vehicle in a covered

parking area or in the shade when-

ever possible.

When entering a hot vehicle, open-

ing the windows will help to reduce

the inside temperature faster, result-

ing in reduced demand on your A/C

system.

Y51D-V-E01-1588CA13-BA81-4DF3-B5D2-ECE86C6E9368

. Keep your engine tuned up.

. Follow the recommended scheduled

maintenance.

. Keep the tires inflated to the correct

pressure. Low tire pressure increases

tire wear and lowers fuel economy.

. Keep the wheels in correct alignment.

Improper alignment increases tire wear

and lowers fuel economy.

. Use the recommended viscosity engine

oil. (See “Engine oil and oil filter

recommendation” (P.10-7).)

off after a while, you can continue driving.

A large difference between the diameters

of front and rear wheels will make the

warning light blink slowly (about once per

two seconds). Pull off the road in a safe

area, and idle the engine. Check that all tire

sizes are the same, tire pressure is correct

and tires are not worn.

If the warning light is blinking after the

above operation, have your vehicle

checked as soon as possible. It is recom-

mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for

this service.

WARNING

. For AWD equipped vehicles, do not

attempt to raise two wheels off the

ground and shift the transmission to

any drive or reverse position with the

engine running. Doing so may result in

drivetrain damage or unexpected vehicle

movement which could result in serious

vehicle damage or personal injury.

. Do not attempt to test an AWD equipped

vehicle on a 2-wheel dynamometer (such

as the dynamometers used by some

states for emissions testing) or similar

equipment even if the other two wheels

are raised off the ground. Make sure that

you inform the test facility personnel

that your vehicle is equipped with AWD

before it is placed on a dynamometer.

Using the wrong test equipment may

result in drivetrain damage or unex-

pected vehicle movement which could

result in serious vehicle damage or

personal injury.

CAUTION

. Do not operate the engine on a free roller

when any of the wheels are raised.

. If the warning light comes on while

driving there may be a malfunction in the

WARNING

. Do not stop or park the vehicle over

flammable materials such as dry grass,

waste paper or rags. They may ignite and

cause a fire.

. Never leave the engine running while the

vehicle is unattended.

. Do not leave children unattended inside

the vehicle. They could unknowingly

activate switches or controls. Unat-

tended children could become involved

in serious accidents.

. To help avoid risk of injury or death

through unintended operation of the

vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave

children, people who require the assis-

tance of others or pets unattended in

your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-

ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm

day can quickly become high enough to

cause a significant risk of injury or death

to people and pets.

. Safe parking procedures require that

both the parking brake be applied and

the transmission placed into P (Park).

WARNING

If the engine is not running or is turned off

while driving, the power assist for the

steering will not work. Steering will be

harder to operate.

The power assisted steering uses a hy-

draulic pump, driven by the engine, to

assist steering.

If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks,

you will still have control of the vehicle.

However, much greater steering effort is

needed, especially in sharp turns and at

low speeds.

BRAKING PRECAUTIONS

Y51D-V-E01-306DF583-15A7-4F2E-A62C-BF5322FC38D7

The brake system has two separate hy-

draulic circuits. If one circuit malfunctions,

you will still have braking at two wheels.

Vacuum assisted brakes

Y51D-V-E01-78C52DD3-F84F-4DBD-A69F-5E2253E57FCE

The brake booster aids braking by using

engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you

can stop the vehicle by depressing the

brake pedal. However, greater foot pres-

sure on the brake pedal will be required to

stop the vehicle and the stopping distance

will be longer.

When the brake pedal is depressed slowly

and firmly, you may hear a clicking noise

and feel a slight pulsation. This is normal

and indicates that the Brake Assist System

is operating.

Wet brakes

Y51D-V-E01-4164933E-9063-4069-9B0B-00C0D135CBA1

When the vehicle is washed or driven

through water, the brakes may get wet.

As a result, your braking distance will be

longer and the vehicle may pull to one side

during braking.

To dry brakes, drive the vehicle at a safe

speed while lightly tapping the brake pedal

to heat-up the brakes. Do this until the

brakes return to normal. Avoid driving the

vehicle at high speeds until the brakes

function correctly.

PARKING BRAKE BREAK-IN

Y51D-V-E01-8D2FFD7C-4467-45F7-A514-CBBDEBD1F7FB

Break in the parking brake shoes whenever

the stopping effect of the parking brake is

weakened or whenever the parking brake

shoes and/or drums/rotors are replaced,

in order to assure the best braking

performance.

This procedure is described in the vehicle

service manual. It is recommended you

visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

Using the brakes

Y51D-V-E01-CBE6144D-573B-4C4C-8A27-7992EBD125D3

Avoid resting your foot on the brake pedal

while driving. This will cause overheating

of the brakes, wearing out the brake and

pads faster and reduce gas mileage.

To help save the brakes and to prevent the

brakes from overheating, reduce speed

and downshift to a lower gear before going

down a slope or long grade. Overheated

brakes may reduce braking performance

and could result in loss of vehicle control.

WARNING

. While driving on a slippery surface, be

careful when braking, accelerating or

downshifting. Abrupt braking or accel-

erating could cause the wheels to skid

and result in an accident.

. If the engine is not running or is turned

off while driving, the power assist for the

brakes will not work. Braking will be

harder.

When the force applied to the brake pedal

exceeds a certain level, the Brake Assist is

activated generating greater braking force

than a conventional brake booster even

with light pedal force.

WARNING

The Brake Assist is only an aid to assist

braking operation and is not a collision

warning or avoidance device. It is the

driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive

safely and be in control of the vehicle at all

times.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)

Y51D-V-E01-AD17D48C-F86A-4373-A36D-8D191DFD4848

WARNING

. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is a

sophisticated device, but it cannot pre-

vent accidents resulting from careless or

dangerous driving techniques. It can

help maintain vehicle control during

braking on slippery surfaces. Remember

that stopping distances on slippery

surfaces will be longer than on normal

surfaces even with ABS. Stopping dis-

tances may also be longer on rough,

gravel or snow covered roads, or if you

are using tire chains. Always maintain a

safe distance from the vehicle in front of

you. Ultimately, the driver is responsible

for safety.

. Tire type and condition may also affect

braking effectiveness.

—

When replacing tires, install the

specified size of tires on all four

wheels.

—

When installing a spare tire, make

sure that it is the proper size and

type as specified on the Tire and

Loading Information label. See “Tire

and loading information label” (P.10-

14).

—

For detailed information, see

“Wheels and tires” (P.8-32).

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) con-

trols the brakes so the wheels do not lock

during hard braking or when braking on

slippery surfaces. The system detects the

rotation speed at each wheel and varies

the brake fluid pressure to prevent each

wheel from locking and sliding. By pre-

venting each wheel from locking, the

system helps the driver maintain steering

control and helps to minimize swerving

and spinning on slippery surfaces.

Using the system

Y51D-V-E01-5E51FABB-C166-46FD-896A-2D2AFBB568C6

Depress the brake pedal and hold it down.

Depress the brake pedal with firm steady

pressure, but do not pump the brakes. The

ABS will operate to prevent the wheels

from locking up. Steer the vehicle to avoid

obstacles.

WARNING

Do not pump the brake pedal. Doing so may

result in increased stopping distances.

Self-test feature

Y51D-V-E01-9FAB00BB-F2BE-4168-BD75-236754B398C1

The ABS includes electronic sensors, elec-

tric pumps, hydraulic solenoids and a

computer. The computer has a built-in

diagnostic feature that tests the system

each time you start the engine and move

the vehicle at a low speed in forward or

reverse. When the self-test occurs, you may

hear a “clunk” noise and/or feel a pulsa-

tion in the brake pedal. This is normal and

does not indicate a malfunction. If the

computer senses a malfunction, it switches

the ABS off and illuminates the ABS

warning light on the instrument panel.

The brake system then operates normally,

but without anti-lock assistance.

If the ABS warning light illuminates during

the self-test or while driving, have the

vehicle checked. It is recommended you

visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

Normal operation

Y51D-V-E01-97EC20E5-32E3-4D14-80B0-197E7EAA54F0

The ABS operates at speeds above 3 to 6

MPH (5 to 10 km/h).

When the ABS senses that one or more

wheels are close to locking up, the actuator

rapidly applies and releases hydraulic

pressure. This action is similar to pumping

the brakes very quickly. You may feel a

pulsation in the brake pedal and hear a

noise from under the hood or feel a

vibration from the actuator when it is

operating. This is normal and indicates

that the ABS is operating properly. How-

ever, the pulsation may indicate that road

conditions are hazardous and extra care is

required while driving.

Y51D-V-E01-4A9596A2-6386-4C22-A04D-18A64B158580

The Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system

uses various sensors to monitor driver

inputs and vehicle motion. Under certain

driving conditions, the VDC system helps

to perform the following functions.

. Controls brake pressure to reduce

wheel slip on one slipping drive wheel

so power is transferred to a non

slipping drive wheel on the same axle.

. Controls brake pressure and engine

output to reduce drive wheel slip based

on vehicle speed (traction control func-

tion).

. Controls brake pressure at individual

wheels and engine output to help the

driver maintain control of the vehicle in

the following conditions:

— understeer (vehicle tends to not

follow the steered path despite

increased steering input)

— oversteer (vehicle tends to spin due

to certain road or driving condi-

tions).

The VDC system can help the driver to

maintain control of the vehicle, but it

cannot prevent loss of vehicle control in

all driving situations.

When the VDC system operates, the VDC

warning light

in the instrument panel

flashes so note the following:

. The road may be slippery or the system

may determine some action is required

to help keep the vehicle on the steered

path.

. You may feel a pulsation in the brake

pedal and hear a noise or vibration

from under the hood. This is normal and

indicates that the VDC system is work-

ing properly.

. Adjust your speed and driving to the

road conditions.

See “Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) warn-

ing light” (P.2-18).

If a malfunction occurs in the system, the

VDC warning light

illuminates in the

instrument panel. The VDC system auto-

matically turns off.

The VDC OFF switch is used to turn off the

VDC system. The VDC off indicator light

illuminates to indicate the VDC system is

off. When the VDC switch is used to turn off

the system, the VDC system still operates

to prevent one drive wheel from slipping by

transferring power to a non slipping drive

wheel. The VDC warning light

flashes if

this occurs. All other VDC functions are off,

except for rise-up and build-up and brake

force distribution, and the VDC warning

ACTIVE TRACE CONTROL (if so

equipped)

Y51D-V-E01-B5B4CBB7-02DE-42E3-B478-AAEA8DEBF723

This system senses driving based on the

driver’s steering and acceleration/braking

patterns, and controls brake pressure at

individual wheels to help smooth vehicle

response.

When the INFINITI Drive Mode Selector is

set to the “SPORT” mode, the amount of

brake control provided by active trace

control is reduced.

When the VDC OFF switch is used to turn off

the VDC system, the active trace control

system is also turned off.

If the active trace control is not functioning

properly, the Forward Emergency Braking

(FEB) system warning light illuminates in

the instrument panel.

RISE-UP AND BUILD-UP

Y51D-V-E01-87710884-81A9-4A5A-9076-A774904FE42D

The system gradually adjusts braking

power during normal braking to help

provide an enhanced brake feel.

BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION

Y51D-V-E01-5B46CABC-FBC6-4BB8-9C50-B12A7A558D2E

During braking while driving through turns,

the system optimizes the distribution of

force to each of the four wheels depending

on the radius of the turn.

WARNING

. The VDC system is designed to help the

driver maintain stability but does not

prevent accidents due to abrupt steering

operation at high speeds or by careless

or dangerous driving techniques. Reduce

vehicle speed and be especially careful

when driving and cornering on slippery

surfaces and always drive carefully.

. The active trace control (if so equipped),

rise-up and build-up and brake force

distribution systems may not be effec-

tive depending on the driving condition.

Always drive carefully and attentively.

. Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension.

If suspension parts such as shock

absorbers, struts, springs, stabilizer

bars, bushings and wheels are not

INFINITI recommended for your vehicle

or are extremely deteriorated, the VDC

system may not operate properly. This

could adversely affect vehicle handling

performance, and the VDC warning light

may illuminate.

. If brake related parts such as brake

pads, rotors and calipers are not INFINITI

recommended or are extremely deterio-

rated, the VDC system may not operate

properly and the VDC warning light

may illuminate.

. If engine control related parts are not

INFINITI recommended or are extremely

deteriorated, the VDC warning light

may illuminate.

. When driving on extremely inclined

surfaces such as higher banked corners,

the VDC system may not operate prop-

erly and the VDC warning light

may

illuminate. Do not drive on these types of

. When driving on an unstable surface

such as a turntable, ferry, elevator or

ramp, the VDC warning light

may

illuminate. This is not a malfunction.

Restart the engine after driving onto a

stable surface.

. If wheels or tires other than the INFINITI

recommended ones are used, the VDC

system may not operate properly and the

WARNING

. Never rely solely on the hill start assist

system to prevent the vehicle from

moving backward on a hill. Always drive

carefully and attentively. Depress the

brake pedal when the vehicle is stopped

on a steep hill. Be especially careful

when stopped on a hill on frozen or

muddy roads. Failure to prevent the

vehicle from rolling backwards may

result in a loss of control of the vehicle

and possible serious injury or death.

. The hill start assist system is not

designed to hold the vehicle at a

standstill on a hill. Depress the brake

pedal when the vehicle is stopped on a

steep hill. Failure to do so may cause the

vehicle to roll backwards and may result

in a collision or serious personal injury.

. The hill start assist system may not

prevent the vehicle from rolling back-

wards on a hill under all load or road

conditions. Always be prepared to de-

press the brake pedal to prevent the

vehicle from rolling backwards. Failure to

do so may result in a collision or serious

personal injury.

The hill start assist system automatically

keeps the brakes applied to help prevent

the vehicle from rolling backwards in the

time it takes the driver to release the brake

pedal and apply the accelerator when the

vehicle is stopped on a hill.

The hill start assist system will operate

automatically under the following condi-

tions:

. The transmission is shifted to a forward

or reverse gear.

. The vehicle is stopped completely on a

hill by applying the brake.

The maximum holding time is 2 seconds.

After 2 seconds the vehicle will begin to

roll back and the hill start assist system

will stop operating completely.

TIRE EQUIPMENT

Y51D-V-E01-B6FA169D-58DD-435F-9AD5-F0E503886684

SUMMER tires have a tread designed to

provide superior performance on dry pave-

ment. However, the performance of these

tires will be substantially reduced in snowy

and icy conditions. If you operate your

vehicle on snowy or icy roads, INFINITI

recommends the use of MUD & SNOW or

ALL SEASON tires on all four wheels. It is

recommended you consult an INFINITI

retailer for the tire type, size, speed rating

and availability information.

For additional traction on icy roads,

studded tires may be used. However, some

U.S. states and Canadian provinces prohi-

bit their use. Check local, state and

provincial laws before installing studded

tires.

Skid and traction capabilities of studded

snow tires, on wet or dry surfaces, may be

poorer than that of non-studded snow

tires.

Tire chains may be used. For details, see

“Tire chains” (P.8-39).

For all-wheel drive

Y51D-V-E01-52FA104E-DAD0-44AC-B200-A57E40801427

If you install snow tires, they must also be

the same size, brand, construction and

tread pattern on all four wheels.

SPECIAL WINTER EQUIPMENT

Y51D-V-E01-FD3A51BB-C337-4BB2-A247-49F856B8CB20

It is recommended that the following items

be carried in the vehicle during winter:

. A scraper and stiff-bristled brush to

remove ice and snow from the windows

and wiper blades.

. A sturdy, flat board to be placed under

the jack to give it firm support.

. A shovel to dig the vehicle out of

snowdrifts.

. Extra window washer fluid to refill the

reservoir tank.

DRIVING ON SNOW OR ICE

Y51D-V-E01-66431155-62BF-4354-8807-8F4097602234

WARNING

. Wet ice (328F, 08C and freezing rain),

very cold snow or ice can be slick and

very hard to drive on. The vehicle will

have much less traction or “grip” under

these conditions. Try to avoid driving on

wet ice until the road is salted or sanded.

. Whatever the condition, drive with cau-

tion. Accelerate and slow down with

care. If accelerating or downshifting too

fast, the drive wheels will lose even more

traction.

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

. Allow more stopping distance under

these conditions. Braking should be

started sooner than on dry pavement.

. Allow greater following distances on

slippery roads.

. Watch for slippery spots (glare ice).

These may appear on an otherwise clear

road in shaded areas. If a patch of ice is

seen ahead, brake before reaching it. Try

not to brake while on the ice, and avoid

any sudden steering maneuvers.

. Do not use the cruise control on slippery

roads.

. Snow can trap dangerous exhaust gases

under your vehicle. Keep snow clear of

the exhaust pipe and from around your

vehicle.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYS-

TEM (TPMS)

Y51D-V-E01-BFEA3614-E51F-4536-91BF-65C5324E7C3E

This vehicle is equipped with the Tire

Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It

monitors tire pressure of all tires except

the spare. When the low tire pressure

warning light is lit and the CHECK TIRE

PRESSURE warning appears in the vehicle

information display, one or more of your

tires is significantly under-inflated. If the

vehicle is being driven with low tire

pressure, the TPMS will activate and warn

you of it by the low tire pressure warning

light. This system will activate only when

the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16

MPH (25 km/h). For more details, see

“Warning lights, indicator lights and audi-

ble reminders” (P.2-11) and “Tire Pressure

Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).

WARNING

. If the low tire pressure warning light

illuminates or LOW PRESSURE informa-

tion is displayed on the monitor screen

while driving, avoid sudden steering

maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce

vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe

location and stop the vehicle as soon as

possible. Driving with under-inflated

tires may permanently damage the tires

and increase the likelihood of tire fail-

ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur

and may lead to an accident and could

result in serious personal injury. Check

the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust

the tire pressure to the recommended

COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and

Loading Information label to turn the low

tire pressure warning light OFF. If the

light still illuminates while driving after

adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be

flat. If you have a flat tire, replace it with

a spare tire as soon as possible.

. Since the spare tire is not equipped with

the TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted

or a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not

function and the low tire pressure warn-

ing light will flash for approximately 1

minute. The light will remain on after 1

minute. Have your tires replaced and/or

TPMS system reset as soon as possible.

It is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for these services.

. Replacing tires with those not originally

specified by INFINITI could affect the

proper operation of the TPMS.

Y51D-V-E01-61244B6B-856E-4C02-A149-32D53D2458C8

In order to maintain the appearance of your

vehicle, it is important to take proper care

of it.

To protect the paint surface, wash your

vehicle as soon as you can:

. after a rainfall to prevent possible

damage from acid rain

. after driving on coastal roads

. when contaminants such as soot, bird

droppings, tree sap, metal particles or

bugs get on the paint surface

. when dust or mud builds up on the

surface

Whenever possible, store or park your

vehicle inside a garage or in a covered

area.

When it is necessary to park outside, park

in a shady area or protect the vehicle with a

body cover.

Be careful not to scratch the paint surface

when putting on or removing the body

cover.

WASHING

Y51D-V-E01-89C768C5-665E-4332-B537-059AF9E0DABC

Wash dirt off the vehicle with a wet sponge

and plenty of water. Clean the vehicle

thoroughly using a mild soap, a special

vehicle soap or general purpose dishwash-

ing liquid mixed with clean, lukewarm

(never hot) water.

CAUTION

. Do not use car washes that use acid in

the detergent. Some car washes, espe-

cially brushless ones, use some acid for

cleaning. The acid may react with some

plastic vehicle components, causing

them to crack. This could affect their

appearance, and also could cause them

not to function properly. Always check

with your car wash to confirm that acid is

not used.

. Do not wash the vehicle with strong

household soap, strong chemical deter-

gents, gasoline or solvents.

. Do not wash the vehicle in direct sun-

light or while the vehicle body is hot, as

the surface may become water-spotted.

. Avoid using tight-napped or rough

cloths, such as washing mitts. Care must

be taken when removing caked-on dirt or

other foreign substances so the paint

surface is not scratched or damaged.

Rinse the vehicle again with plenty of clean

water.

Inside flanges, seams and folds on the

doors, hatches and hood are particularly

vulnerable to the effects of road salt.

Therefore, these areas must be regularly

cleaned. Make sure that the drain holes in

the lower edge of the door are open. Spray

water under the body and in the wheel

wells to loosen the dirt and wash away

road salt.

Avoid leaving water spots on the paint

surface by using a damp chamois to dry the

vehicle.

WAXING

Y51D-V-E01-FDECF156-7849-4E3B-9508-4112D8244F1D

Regular waxing protects the paint surface

and helps retain new vehicle appearance.

Polishing is recommended to remove built-

up wax residue and to avoid a weathered

appearance before reapplying wax.

An INFINITI retailer can assist you in

choosing the proper product.

. Wax your vehicle only after a thorough

washing. Follow the instructions sup-

plied with the wax.

. Do not use a wax containing any

abrasives, cutting compounds or clea-

ners that may damage the vehicle

finish.

Machine compound or aggressive polish-

ing on a base coat/clear coat paint finish

may dull the finish or leave swirl marks.

REMOVING SPOTS

Y51D-V-E01-E8B74468-BCE5-4709-9D00-2285EB5AF58E

Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust,

insects, and tree sap as quickly as possible

from the paint surface to avoid lasting

damage or staining. Special cleaning

products are available at an INFINITI

retailer or any automotive accessory

stores.

UNDERBODY

Y51D-V-E01-7716E8ED-9E43-4D83-A6F6-497E61851D28

In areas where road salt is used in winter,

the underbody must be cleaned regularly.

This will prevent dirt and salt from building

up and causing the acceleration of corro-

sion on the underbody and suspension.

Before the winter period and again in the

spring, the underseal must be checked

and, if necessary, re-treated.

GLASS

Y51D-V-E01-08906C72-395B-4C0D-AB51-77874E33DDFB

Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and

dust film from the glass surfaces. It is

normal for glass to become coated with a

film after the vehicle is parked in the hot

sun. Glass cleaner and a soft cloth will

easily remove this film.

CAUTION

When cleaning the inside of the windows,

do not use sharp-edged tools, abrasive

cleaners or chlorine-based disinfectant clea-

ners. They could damage the electrical

conductors, radio antenna elements or rear

window defroster elements.

WHEELS

Y51D-V-E01-86BF7C1F-D7AC-4955-A781-342F1840AEDE

Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle

to maintain their appearance.

. Clean the inner side of the wheels when

the wheel is changed or the underside

of the vehicle is washed.

. Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents

or corrosion. Such damage may cause

loss of pressure or poor seal at the tire

bead.

. INFINITI recommends that the road

wheels be waxed to protect against

road salt in areas where it is used

during winter.

CAUTION

Do not use abrasive cleaners when washing

the wheels.

Aluminum alloy wheels

Y51D-V-E01-FBDB2630-0B4E-48F5-A670-4D29933E3E16

Wash regularly with a sponge dampened in

a mild soap solution, especially during

winter months in areas where road salt is

used. Salt could discolor the wheels if not

removed.

CAUTION

Follow the directions below to avoid stain-

ing or discoloring the wheels:

. Do not use a cleaner that uses strong

acid or alkali contents to clean the

wheels.

. Do not apply wheel cleaners to the

wheels when they are hot. The wheel

temperature should be the same as

CHROME PARTS

Y51D-V-E01-0094087B-0A17-4FF2-9C41-F31A14D3D6BC

Clean chrome parts regularly with a non-

abrasive chrome polish to maintain the

finish.

TIRE DRESSING

Y51D-V-E01-049714D9-BD47-419F-9036-9C9F29D765E3

INFINITI does not recommend the use of

tire dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a

coating to the tires to help reduce dis-

coloration of the rubber. If a tire dressing is

applied to the tires, it may react with the

coating and form a compound. This com-

pound may come off the tire while driving

and stain the vehicle paint.

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take

the following precautions:

. Use a water-based tire dressing. The

coating on the tire dissolves more

easily with an oil-based tire dressing.

. Apply a light coat of tire dressing to

help prevent it from entering the tire

tread/grooves (where it would be diffi-

cult to remove).

. Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry

towel. Make sure the tire dressing is

completely removed from the tire

tread/grooves.

. Allow the tire dressing to dry as

recommended by tire dressing manu-

facturer.

Y51D-V-E01-5EAC8407-7781-4E05-920D-B9F833E99438

Occasionally remove loose dust from the

interior trim, plastic parts and seats using

a vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush.

Wipe the vinyl and leather surfaces with a

clean, soft cloth dampened in mild soap

solution, then wipe clean with a dry soft

cloth.

Regular care and cleaning is required in

order to maintain the appearance of the

leather.

Before using any fabric protector, read the

manufacturer’s recommendations. Some

fabric protectors contain chemicals that

may stain or bleach the seat material.

Use a cloth dampened only with water, to

clean the meter and gauge lens.

WARNING

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot

steam cleaners) on the seat. This can

damage the seat or occupant classification

sensors. This can also affect the operation of

the air bag system and result in serious

personal injury.

CLEANING INTERIOR

Condition:

(483,1)

[ Edit: 2016/ 8/ 1 Model: 2017MY INFINITI Q70(Y51) OM17E00Y51U0 ]

CAUTION

. Never use benzine, thinner, or any

similar material.

. For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dampened

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.

. Small dirt particles can be abrasive and

damaging to the leather surfaces and

should be removed promptly. Do not use

saddle soap, car waxes, polishes, oils,

cleaning fluids, solvents, detergents or

ammonia-based cleaners as they may

damage the leather’s natural finish.

. Only use fabric protectors approved by

INFINITI.

. Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on

meter or gauge lens covers. It may

damage the lens cover.

AIR FRESHENERS

Y51D-V-E01-6145786E-8E5A-423A-A3C5-028C5AD788FF

Most air fresheners use a solvent that

could affect the vehicle interior. If you use

an air freshener, take the following pre-

cautions:

. Hanging-type air fresheners can cause

permanent discoloration when they

contact vehicle interior surfaces. Place

the air freshener in a location that

allows it to hang free and not contact

an interior surface.

. Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip

on the vents. These products can cause

immediate damage and discoloration

when spilled on interior surfaces.

Carefully read and follow the manufac-

turer’s instructions before using air fresh-

eners.

MOONROOF SUNSHADE

Y51D-V-E01-299A0628-F514-44B1-8BF0-28E35F8D687B

The moonroof sunshade is made from a

suede material.

Clean the suede material as follows:

CAUTION

To help prevent damaging the sunshade

while cleaning:

. Do not rub the material with a cloth.

Doing so can damage the surface of the

material or cause a stain to spread.

. Never use benzine, thinner or any similar

chemical to clean the suede. This may

discolor the sunshade and damage the

surface.

. Clean water based stains by patting the

surface with a clean soft cloth dampened

in warm water. Press a clean dry cloth

onto the surface to remove as much

dampness as possible and then let air

dry.

. Clean oil based stains by patting the

surface with a clean soft cloth dampened

MOST COMMON FACTORS CONTRI-

BUTING TO VEHICLE CORROSION

Y51D-V-E01-E979CBFD-D47E-46D2-AB44-0988347AF315

. The accumulation of moisture-retaining

dirt and debris in body panel sections,

cavities, and other areas.

. Damage to paint and other protective

coatings caused by gravel and stone

chips or minor traffic accidents.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLU-

ENCE THE RATE OF CORROSION

Y51D-V-E01-C2F6F55B-7D15-4DC8-A7A4-CB5B62B9E8C9

Moisture

Y51D-V-E01-12E981E2-C1A4-4D98-9FBC-150933E5F21D

Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on

the vehicle body underside can accelerate

corrosion. Wet floor coverings will not dry

completely inside the vehicle, and should

be removed for drying to avoid floor panel

corrosion.

Relative humidity

Y51D-V-E01-64711E0F-757E-409A-B8A7-2864F3659D0F

Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of

high relative humidity, especially those

areas where the temperatures stay above

freezing where atmospheric pollution ex-

ists, or where road salt is used.

Temperature

Y51D-V-E01-EA28CD9A-484D-45B8-B7CF-AC2A62B65F06

A temperature increase will accelerate the

rate of corrosion to those parts which are

not well ventilated.

Air pollution

Y51D-V-E01-CB81F8AB-C2B9-4F0F-BD74-30B3EB1BA3D5

Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in

the air in coastal areas, or heavy road salt

use will accelerate the corrosion process.

Road salt will also accelerate the disinte-

gration of paint surfaces.

TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM

CORROSION

Y51D-V-E01-88825C6B-922A-4901-8950-E810E911CD7E

. Wash and wax your vehicle often to

keep the vehicle clean.

. Always check for minor damage to the

paint and repair it as soon as possible.

. Keep drain holes at the bottom of the

doors open to avoid water accumula-

tion.

. Check the underbody for accumulation

of sand, dirt or salt. If present, wash

with water as soon as possible.

CAUTION

. NEVER remove dirt, sand or other debris

from the passenger compartment by

washing it out with a hose. Remove dirt

with a vacuum cleaner.

. Never allow water or other liquids to

come in contact with electronic compo-

nents inside the vehicle as this may

damage them.

Chemicals used for road surface deicing

are extremely corrosive. They accelerate

corrosion and deterioration of underbody

components such as the exhaust system,

fuel and brake lines, brake cables, floor

pan and fenders.

In winter, the underbody must be cleaned

periodically.

For additional protection against rust and

corrosion, which may be required in some

areas, it is recommended you consult an

INFINITI retailer.

When performing any inspection or main-

tenance work on your vehicle, always take

care to prevent serious accidental injury to

yourself or damage to the vehicle. The

following are general precautions which

should be closely observed.

WARNING

. Park the vehicle on a level surface, apply

the parking brake securely and block the

wheels to prevent the vehicle from

moving. Move the shift lever to P (Park).

. Be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF

or LOCK position when performing any

parts replacement or repairs.

. Never connect or disconnect the battery

or any transistorized component while

the ignition switch is in the ON position.

. Never leave the engine or automatic

transmission related component har-

nesses disconnected while the ignition

switch is in the ON position.

. If you must work with the engine

running, keep your hands, clothing, hair

and tools away from moving fans, belts

and any other moving parts.

. It is advisable to secure or remove any

loose clothing and remove any jewelry,

such as rings, watches, etc. before

working on your vehicle.

. Always wear eye protection whenever

you work on your vehicle.

. If you must run the engine in an enclosed

space such as a garage, be sure there is

proper ventilation for exhaust gases to

escape.

. Never get under the vehicle while it is

supported only by a jack. If it is

necessary to work under the vehicle,

support it with safety stands.

. Keep smoking materials, flame and

sparks away from fuel tank and the

battery.

. Your vehicle is equipped with an auto-

matic engine cooling fan. It may come on

at any time without warning, even if the

ignition key is in the OFF position and

the engine is not running. To avoid

injury, always disconnect the negative

battery cable before working near the

fan.

. Because the fuel lines are under high

pressure even when the engine is off, it

is recommended you visit an INFINITI

retailer for service of the fuel filter or fuel

lines.

CAUTION

. Do not work under the hood while the

engine is hot. Turn the engine off and

wait until it cools down.

. Avoid direct contact with used engine oil

and coolant. Improperly disposed engine

oil, coolant, and/or other vehicle fluids

can damage the environment. Always

conform to local regulations for disposal

of vehicle fluid.

This “8. Do-it yourself” section gives
