WARNING LIGHTS

All-Wheel Drive (AWD)

warning light (AWD models)

The

warning light comes on when the

ignition switch is pushed to ON. It turns off

soon after the engine is started.

If the AWD system malfunctions, or the diam-

eter of the front and the rear wheels are differ-

ent, the warning light will either remain illumi-

nated or blink. (See “ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)”

in the “5. Starting and driving” section.)

CAUTION

●

If the warning light comes on while driving

there may be a malfunction in the AWD sys-

tem. Reduce the vehicle speed and have your

vehicle checked by an INFINITI dealer as

soon as possible.

●

If the AWD warning light blinks on when you

are driving:

– blinks rapidly (about twice a second):

Pull off the road in a safe area, and idle the

engine. The driving mode will change to

2WD to prevent the AWD system from

malfunctioning. If the warning light turns

off, you can drive again.

– blinks slowly (about once every 2 sec-

onds):

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 still on after the above

operations, have your vehicle checked by an

INFINITI dealer as soon as possible.

Anti-lock Braking

System (ABS)

warning light

When the ignition switch is in the ON position,

the

Anti-lock

Braking

System

(ABS)

warning

light illuminates and then turns off. This indi-

cates the ABS is operational.

If the ABS warning light illuminates while the

engine

is

running,

or

while

driving,

it

may

indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.

Have the system checked by an INFINITI dealer.

If

an

ABS

malfunction

occurs,

the

anti-lock

function is turned off. The brake system then

operates normally, but without anti-lock assis-

tance. (See “BRAKE SYSTEM” in the “5. Starting

and driving” section.)
