If: 1. The engine coolant temperature is not reduced. 2. The air conditioning cooling function does not turn back ON. 3. The engine oil pressure warning/engine ilcoolant temperature high indicator luminates, this may indicate a malfunction. Move the vehicle off the road in a safe area and allow the engine to cool. If after checkremains ing the oil and coolant, the on, do not continue to drive and call an INFINITI dealer. The malfunction indicator lamp may also come ON. You do not need to have your vehicle towed, unless it remains on, but have it inspected soon by an INFINITI dealer. See "Warning/Indicator Lights and Audible reminders" in the "Instruments and Controls" section of this manual. WARNING Overheating can result in reduced engine power and vehicle speed. The reduced speed may be lower than other traffic, which could increase the chance of a collision. Be especially careful when driving. If the vehicle cannot maintain a safe driving speed, pull to the side of the road in a safe area. Allow the engine to cool and return to normal operation. See "If your vehicle overheats" in the "In case of emergency" section of this manual. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARNING ● Do not depress the accelerator pedal while shifting from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to R (Reverse), or L (Low). Always depress the brake pedal until shifting is completed. Failure to do so could cause you to lose control and have an accident. ● Cold engine idle speed is high, so use caution when shifting into a forward or reverse gear before the engine has warmed up. ● Never shift to P (Park) or R (Reverse) while the vehicle is moving. This could cause an accident. CAUTION Running the engine with the engine oil pressure warning light on could cause serious damage to the engine almost immediately. Such damage is not covered by warranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it is safe to do so. CAUTION ● When stopping the vehicle on an uphill grade, do not hold the vehicle by depressing the accelerator pedal. The foot brake should be used for this purpose. ● Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads. This may cause a loss of control. The automatic transmission in your vehicle is electronically controlled to produce maximum power and smooth operation. Starting and driving 5-13
