c. You notice a change in the sound ofthe exhaust system.d. You have had an accident involvingdamage to the exhaust system, un-derbody, or rear of the vehicle.THREE-WAY CATALYSTThe three-way catalyst is an emissioncontrol device installed in the exhaustsystem. Exhaust gases in the three-waycatalyst are burned at high temperaturesto help reduce pollutants.WARNINGțThe exhaust gas and the exhaustsystem are very hot. Keep people, ani-mals or flammable materials away fromthe exhaust system components.țDo not stop or park the vehicle overflammable materials such as dry grass,waste paper or rags. They may igniteand cause a fire.CAUTIONțDo not use leaded gasoline. Depositsfrom leaded gasoline seriously reducethe three-way catalyst’s ability to helpreduce exhaust pollutants.țKeep your engine tuned up. Malfunc-tions in the ignition, fuel injection, orelectrical systems can cause overrichfuel flow into the three-way catalyst,causing it to overheat. Do not keepdriving if the engine misfires, or if no-ticeable loss of performance or otherunusual operating conditions are de-tected. Have the vehicle inspectedpromptly by an INFINITI dealer.țAvoid driving with an extremely lowfuel level. Running out of fuel couldcause the engine to misfire, damagingthe three-way catalyst.țDo not race the engine while warming itup.LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNINGSYSTEMThis vehicle is equipped with the low tirepressure warning system. It monitors tirepressure of all tires except the spare.When the low tire pressure warning lightis lit, one or more of your tires is signifi-cantly underinflated. The system also dis-plays pressure of all tires (except thespare tire) on the display screen by send-ing a signal from a sensor that is installedin each wheel.The low tire pressure warning system willactivate only when the vehicle is driven atspeeds above 20 MPH (32 km/h). Also,this system may not detect a sudden dropin tire pressure (for example, a flat tirewhile driving).Tire pressure rises and falls depending onthe heat caused by the vehicle’s operationand the outside temperature. Low outsidetemperature can lower the temperature ofthe air inside the tire which can cause alower tire inflation pressure. This maycause the low tire pressure warning lightto illuminate.If the warning light illuminates in low out-side temperatures as described above,check the tire pressure for all four tires.Starting and driving 5-3੬04.12.13/Y50-D ੭
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-mended COLD tire pressure shown on theTire and Loading Information label to turnthe low tire pressure warning light OFF.Frequently check the tire pressure informa-tion display on the monitor screen and ad-just pressure of each tire properly. See“Vehicle information and settings” in the“4. Monitor, climate, audio, phone andvoice recognition systems” section for tirepressure monitor.Low tire pressure warningIf the vehicle is being driven with low tirepressure (lower than 27 psi, 190 kPa), theLOW PRESSURE information message willbe displayed on the monitor screen. Thelow tire pressure warning light comes on,and the chime sounds for about 10 sec-onds.If you select the tire pressure informationin the display, the LOW PRESSURE informa-tion message will be displayed.For additional information regarding theabove warning, see “Warning/indicatorlights and audible reminders” in the“2. Instruments and controls” section.WARNINGțIf the low tire pressure warning lightflashes while driving, avoid suddensteering maneuvers or abrupt braking,reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road toa safe location and stop the vehicle assoon as possible. Serious vehicledamage could occur and may lead to anaccident and could result in serious per-sonal injury. Check the pressure for allfour tires. Adjust the pressure to the rec-ommended COLD tire pressure shown onthe Tire and Loading Information label toturn the low tire pressure warning lightOFF. If you have a flat tire, replace it witha spare tire as soon as possible. (See“Flat tire” in the “6. In case of emer-gency” section for changing a flat tire.)țIf your vehicle is equipped with run-flattires, you can continue driving after youhave a flat tire. However, remember thatvehicle handling stability is reduced,which could lead to an accidentand personal injury. See “Wheels andtires” in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section for more details andmake sure to observe the cautions aboutrun-flat tires. Failure to do so may resultin a serious accident.țImmediately after a spare tire ismounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pres-sure will not be indicated on the displayand the low tire pressure warning systemwill not function. Reset the system bydriving the vehicle at over 25 MPH (40km/h) for approximately 10 minutes. Iftire pressure is not indicated after per-forming the resetting procedure above,contact an INFINITI dealer as soon aspossible.țReplacing tires with those not originallyspecified by INFINITI could affect theproper operation of the low tire pressurewarning system.țDo not inject any tire liquid or aerosoltire sealant into the tires, as this maycause a malfunction of the tire pressuresensors.5-4 Starting and driving੬04.12.21/Y50-D ੭
CAUTIONThe low tire pressure warning system maynot function properly when the wheels areequipped with tire chains or the wheels areburied in snow.FCC Notice:Changes or modifications not expresslyapproved by the manufacturer compliancecould void the user’s authority to operatethe equipment.This device complies with Part 15 of theFCC Rules and RSS-210 of IndustryCanada.Operation is subject to the following twoconditions: (1) This device may not causeharmful interference, and (2) this devicemust accept any interference received, in-cluding interference that may cause un-desired operation of the device.AVOIDING COLLISION ANDROLLOVERWARNINGFailure to operate this vehicle in a safe andprudent manner may result in loss of con-trol or an accident.Be alert and drive defensively at all times.Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid exces-sive speed, high speed cornering, or sud-den steering maneuvers, because thesedriving practices could cause you to losecontrol of your vehicle. As with any ve-hicle, a loss of control could result in acollision with other vehicles or objects, orcause the vehicle to rollover, particularlyif the loss of control causes the vehicle toslide sideways. Be attentive at all times,and avoid driving when tired. Never drivewhen under the influence of alcohol ordrugs (including prescription or over-the-counter drugs which may cause drowsi-ness). Always wear your seat belt as out-lined in the “Seat belts” section of thismanual, and also instruct your passen-gers to do so.Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury incollisions and rollovers. In a rollovercrash, an unbelted or improperly beltedperson is significantly more likely to beinjured or killed than a person properlywearing a seat belt.DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND DRIVINGWARNINGNever drive under the influence of alcoholor drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream re-duces coordination, delays reaction timeand impairs judgement. Driving after drink-ing alcohol increases the likelihood ofbeing involved in an accident injuring your-self and others. Additionally, if you are in-jured in an accident, alcohol can increasethe severity of the injury.INFINITI is committed to safe driving. Youmust not drive under the influence of al-cohol. Every year thousands of people areinjured or killed in alcohol related acci-dents. Although the local laws vary onwhat is considered to be legally intoxi-cated, the fact is that alcohol affects allpeople differently and most people under-estimate the effects of alcohol.Starting and driving 5-5੬04.12.13/Y50-D ੭
