The electronic parking brake system warning
light functions for the electronic parking
brake system. If the warning light illuminates,
it may indicate the electronic parking brake
system is not functioning properly. Have the
system checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
For additional information, refer to “Electronic parking brake” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
This light illuminates when the electronic
parking brake system is operating.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the electronic parking brake warning light illuminates. When the engine is
started and the parking brake is released, the
warning light turns off.
If the parking brake is not released, the electronic parking brake warning light remains
illuminated. Ensure the electronic parking
brake warning light has turned off before
driving.
If the electronic parking brake warning light
illuminates or flashes while the electronic
parking brake system warning light
or (yellow) illuminates, it may indicate
that the electronic parking brake system is
not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
For additional information, refer to “Electronic parking brake” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.

WHEELS AND TIRES
If you have a flat tire, refer to “Flat tire” in
the “In case of emergency” section of this
manual.
TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
WARNING
Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influences before use.
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
It monitors tire pressure of all tires
except the spare. When the low tire
pressure warning light is lit and the
“Tire Pressure Low – Add Air” warning
appears in the vehicle information display, one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. If equipped,
the system also displays pressure of all
tires (except the spare tire) on the dis-
play screen by sending a signal from a
sensor that is installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above
16 mph (25 km/h). Also, this system
may not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example a flat tire while
driving).
For additional information, refer to
“Low tire pressure warning light” in the
“Instruments and controls” section,
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving”
section and “Flat tire” in the “In case of
emergency” section of this manual.
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) often and always prior to long
distance trips. The recommended tire
pressure specifications are shown on
the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification label or the Tire and Loading Information label under the “Cold Tire
Pressure” heading. The Tire and Loading Information label is affixed to the
driver side center pillar. Tire pressures
should be checked regularly because:
∙ Most tires naturally lose air over
time.
∙ Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects or if the vehicle strikes a curb
while parking.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator
provides visual and audible signals
outside the vehicle for inflating the
tires to the recommended COLD tire
pressure. For additional information,
refer to “TPMS with tire inflation indicator” in the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
Incorrect tire pressure, including under inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
∙ Improperly inflated tires can fail
suddenly and cause an accident.
∙ The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) is located on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification label. The vehicle weight capacity is indicated on the Tire and
Loading Information label. Do not
load your vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading your vehicle
may result in reduced tire life, unsafe operating conditions due to
premature tire failure, or unfavorable handling characteristics and
could also lead to a serious accident. Loading beyond the specified capacity may also result in
failure of other vehicle
components.
∙ Before taking a long trip, or when-
ever you heavily load your vehicle,
use a tire pressure gauge to ensure
that the tire pressures are at the
specified level.
∙ For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information”
(Canada) in the Warranty Information Booklet.

number of occupants that can be
seated in the vehicle.
2
Original tire size: The size of the

tires originally installed on the vehicle at the factory.

Cold tire pressure: Inflate the tires
䊊
to this pressure when the tires are
cold. Tires are considered COLD
after the vehicle has been parked
for 3 or more hours, or driven less
than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate
speeds. The recommended cold
tire inflation is set by the manufacturer to provide the best balance of tire wear, vehicle handling,
driveability, tire noise, etc., up to
the vehicle’s GVWR.

Checking tire pressure
WARNING
∙ Driving at high speeds, 100 mph
(160 km/h) or higher sustained
where it is legal to do so, can cause
tires to have excessive heat build
up, which may result in a tire failure causing loss of control, crash,
injuries or even death.
∙ Some high-speed rated tires re-
quire inflation pressure adjustment for high-speed operation.
When speed limits and road conditions allow vehicle driving at high
speeds, make sure tires are rated
to support high speed operation,
tires are in optimal conditions and
pressure isadjustedto correct cold
inflation pressure for high speed
operation.
∙ If your vehicle is equipped with
P235/55RF19 or P255/45RF20
tire sizes, tires require adjustment
to the inflation pressure when
driving the vehicle at speeds of
100 mph (160 km/h) or higher
where it is legal to do so. Set the
cold inflation pressure to 36 psi
(250 kPa).
∙ After vehicle high speed operation
has ended, readjust the tire pressure to the recommended cold inflation pressure, For additional information refer to the "Checking
tire pressure" section of this
manual.
1. Remove the valve stem cap from
the tire.
2. Press the pressure gauge
squarely onto the valve stem. Do
not press too hard or force the
valve stem sideways, or air will
escape. If the hissing sound of air
escaping from the tire is heard
while checking the pressure, reposition the gauge to eliminate
this leakage.
3. Remove the gauge.
4. Read the tire pressure on the
gauge stem and compare to the
specification shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label.
5. Add air to the tire as needed. If
too much air is added, press the
core of the valve stem briefly with
the tip of the gauge stem to release pressure. Recheck the pressure and add or release air as
needed.
6. Install the valve stem cap.
7. Check the pressure of all other
tires, including the spare.
8. Check the pressure when driving
the vehicle at speeds of 100 mph
(160 km/h) or higher where it is
legal to do so.

models correctlymay result inloss of control
or an accident. For additional information,
refer to “Driving safety precautions” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car
because it has a higher center of gravity
for off-road use. As with other vehicles
with features of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may result in
loss of control or an accident.
For additional information, refer to “Onpavement and off-road driving
precautions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover” and “Driving safety precautions” in
the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
