Approaching Vehicle Sound for Pedestrians (VSP) System

The VSP system helps alert pedestrians to the presence of the vehicle when it is being driven

at a low speed.

When the vehicle starts to move, it produces a sound. The sound stops when the vehicle

speed reaches approximately 19 MPH (30 km/h) while accelerating.

This sound will activate again when decelerating to a speed less than 16 MPH (25 km/h).

information display warning light tires are low on pressure and air is needed.

• The tire pressures should be checked when the tires are cold. The

tires are considered cold after the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle at speeds above

16 MPH (25 km/h). The Flat Tire Visit Dealer or Tire Pressure Low — Add Air warning message and low tire pressure warning light will disappear.

When the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the TPMS

is not functioning properly. Have the system checked by an INFINITI retailer.

Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the

outside temperature. 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 illuminates, check the tire pressure in your tires.

• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.

The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to

section 9, “Technical and consumer information”, in your Owner’s Manual for the location of the Tire and Loading Information label.
