SAFETY INFORMATION
This system is primarily designed to help

or notice smoke or a smell coming from it,
stop using the system immediately and
contact an INFINITI dealer. Ignoring such
conditions may lead to accidents, fire or
electrical shock.
CAUTION!
. Do not keep the navigation system running
with the engine stopped. Doing so may
discharge the vehicle battery. When you use
