operated undersome conditions as described below as permitted by U.S. regulations. If the front passenger air bag is OFF, it will not inflate in a crash. The driver air bag and other air bags in your vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help reduce risk of injury or death from an inflating airbag to certain front passenger seat occupants, such as children, by requiring the airbag to be automatically turned off.
The occupant classification sensors (weightsensors) are on these at cushion frame under the front passenger seat and are designed to detect an occupant and object on these. For example, if a child is in the front passenger seat, the Advanced Air Bag System is designed to turn the passenger air bag Off in accordance with the regulations. Also, if a child restraint of the types specified in the regulations is on these, the occupant classification sensors can detect it and cause the air bag to turn OFF.

Forsmalladultsit may be returnedOFF, however, if the occupant does not sit in theseat properly (forexample, bynotsittingupright, by sittingonanedgeoftheseat, orby otherwise being out of position), this could cause the sense to turn their airbag OFF.

TIREPRESSUREMONITORING SYSTEM(TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates alow tire pressure telltalewhenone or more of your tires is significantly underinflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltaleilluminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire treadlife, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
If the vehicle is being driven with one or moreflattires,thelowtirepressure warning light will illuminate continuously andachimewillsoundfor10seconds.The flattirewarningwillalsoappearinthe vehicleinformationdisplay.Thechimewill onlysoundatthefirstindicationaflat tire, and the warning light will illuminate continuously.Whentheflattirewarningis activated, have the system reset and the tirecheckedandreplacedifnecessarby anINFINITiretail.Evenithetireis inflatedtothespecifiedCOLDtirepres-sure, the warninglightwill continueto

DRINKINGALCOHOL/DRUGSAND DRIVING

WARNING
Neverdriveundertheinfluenceofalcoholor drugs. Alcoholinthebloodstreamreduces coordination, delaysreactiontimeandimpairsjudgement. Drivingafterdrinking alcoholincreasesthelikelihoodofbeing involved in accident injurying yourself and others. Additionally, if you are injured in an accident, alcohol can increase the severity of their injury.
INFINITliscommittedtosafedriving. However, you must choose nottodrive under the influence of alcohol. Every year thousands of people are injured or killed in alcohol-related accidents. Although the callaws vary on what is considered to be legally intoxicated, the fact that alcohol affects all peopled differently and most people underestimate the effect of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don't mix! And that ist rue for drugs, too (over-the-counter, prescription, and illegal drugs).

Use these positions when driving up long slopes, or for engine braking when driving
downlongslopes.
4^M (4th), 3^M (3rd) and 2^M (2nd):
Use these positions for hill climbing or engine braking on downhill grades.
1 ^M (1st):
Use this position when climbing steep hills slowly or driving slowly through deep snow, or maximum engine braking on steepdownhill grades.

- Movingtheshiftleverrapidlytothe samesidetwicewillshifttherangesin succession.
•Inthemanualshiftmode, the transmission may not shift to these selected gear or may automatically shift to the other gear. This helps maintain driving performance and reduce the chance of vehicle damage or loss of control.
- When the transmission does not shift to the selected gear, the Automatic Transmission (AT) position indicator (in the vehicle information display) will blink and the buzzer will sound.
•Inthemanualshiftmode, the transmission automatically shifts downto1st gear before the vehicle comestoa stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift up to the desired range.

Fail-safe
Whenthefail-safeoperationoccurs, note that the transmission will be locked in any of the forward gears according to the condition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions, such as excessive wheelspinning and subsequent hard braking, the fall safesystem maybe activated. This will occur even if a electrical circuit are functioning properly. In this case, push the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait for seconds. Then push the ignition switch back to the ON position. The vehicle should return to its normal operating condition. If it does not return to its

- Duringsomedrivingsituations, hard brakingforexample, the adaptiveshift controlmay automaticallyoperate. The transmission may automatically shift to alower gear forengine braking. This increases enginespeed but not vehicle speed. Vehiclespeed is controlled by the accelerator pedal when the vehicle is in the Adaptiveshift control mode.
- When the adaptiveshift control operates, the transmission sometimes maintains lower gear for longer period of time than when adaptive shift control is not operating. Engine speed will be higher for a specific vehicle speed while ASC system is operating

If the driver appliesthe brakes quickly and forcefully after the warning, and the forward emergency braking system detects that there is still the possibility of a forward collision, the system will automatically increase the braking force.
If a forward collision is imminent and the driver does not take action, the forward emergency braking system issues the second visual (red) and audible warning and automatically applies harder braking.
NOTE:
The vehicle's stoplights come on when braking is performed by the forward emergency braking system.
Depending on vehicles speed and distance to the vehicle ahead, as well as driving and roadway conditions, the system may help the driver avoid a forward collision or may help mitigate the consequences of facollisions should done be unavoidable.
If the driver is handling the steering wheel, accelerating or braking, the forward emergency braking system will function later or will not function.
The automatic braking will cease under the following conditions:
- When theesteeringwheelisturnedas faras necessary to avoid a collision.
- When the accelerator pedal is depressed.
- Whenthereisnolongeravehicle detectedahead.
If the forward emergency braking system has stopped the vehicle, the vehicle will remain at a stand still for approximately 2 seconds before the brakes are released.

POWERSTEERING
HYDRAULICPOWERSTEERINGTYPE

WARNING
If the engine is not running oristurned off while driving, the power assist for the steering will not work. Steering will be hard to operate.
The power assisted steering uses a hydraulic pump, driven by the engine, to assist steering.
If the engine stops orthedrive belt breaks, you will still have control of the vehicle. However, much greater steering effort is needed, especially in shar turns and at lowspeeds.

Usingthebrakes
Avoidrestingyourfootonthebrakepedal whiledriving. This will cause overheating of the brakes, wearing out the brake and pads faster and reduce gasmileage.
To helps a vet the brakes and to prevent the brakes from overheating, reduces speed and downshift to lower gear before going down aslope or long grade. Overheated brakes may reduce braking performance and could result in loss of vehicle control.

WARNING
- Whiledrivingonaslippery surface, be careful when braking, accelerating or downshifting. Abrupt braking or accelerating could cause the wheel stoskid and result in an accident.
- If the engine is not running oristurned off while driving, the power assist for the brakes will not work. Braking will be harder.

If you have a flattire, see "Flattire" (P.6-3).
TIREPRESSURE
TirePressureMonitoringSystem (TPMS)
This vehicleisequipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It monitor tire pressure of all tire except these spare. Whentelow tire pressure warning lights lit and the "Tire Pressure Low-Add Air" warning appears in the vehicle information display, one more or more your tiresis significantly under inflated. 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 afall tire while driving).
Formoredetails,see"Lowtirepressure warninglight"(P.2-14),"TirePressureMonitoringSystem(TPMS)("P.5-4)and"Tire PressureMonitoringSystem(TPMS)("P.6-3).
Tireinflationpressure
Checkthepressureofthetires (includingthespare)oftenandal-

- Mosttiresnaturallyloseairover time.
- Tirescanloseairsuddenlywhen drivenoverpotholesorother objectsonifthevehiclestrikesa curbwhileparking.
Thetirepressureshouldbechecked whenthetiresarecold. Thetires are consideredCOLDafterthevehicle has beenparkedfor3ormorehours, ordrivenlessthan1mile(1.6km)at moderatespeeds.
TPMS with Tire Inflation Indicator provides visual and audible signals outside the vehicle for inflating the tires to the recommended COLD tire pressure.(See"TPMSwithTireInflationIndicator"(P.5-7)aboutthe TPMSwithTireInflationIndicator.)
Incorrect tire pressure, including underinflation, may adversely affect tire life and vehicle handling.

-
Remove the valve stem cap from the tire.
-
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 deposition on the gauge to eliminate this leakage.
-
Remove the gauge.
- Read the tire pressure on the gauge stem and compare it to the specification shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.
- 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.
- Install the valve stem cap.
- Check the pressure of all other tires, including the spare.

- Replacement tires may have a lower speed rating than the factory equipped tires, and may not match the potential maximum vehicle speed. Never exceed
themaximum speedrating of the tire.
- Replacing tires with those not originally specified by INFINIT could affect the proper operation of the TPMS.
- Foradditionalinformationregarding tires,referto"ImportantTireSafety Information"(US)or"TireSafetyInformation" (Canada) in the Warranty InformationBooklet.

Replacingwheelsandtires
When replacing atire, usethesamesize, treaddesign, speedrating and load carry-ing capacity as originally equipped. (See "Specifications" (P.9-8) for recommended types and sizes soft tires and wheels.)

WARNING
- Theuseoftiresotherthanthose recommendedorthemixeduseoftires of different brands, construction (bias, bias-belted, radialorrun-flat), ortread patterns can adversely affect the ride, braking, handling, ground clearance, body-to-tire clearance, tire chain clearance, speedometercalibration, headlightaimand bumperheight. Someof these effects may lead to accidents and could result in serious personal injury.
- For Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) models, If your vehicle was originally equipped with 4 tires that were the same size and you are only replacing 2 of the 4 tires, install the new tires on the rear axle. Placing new tires on the frontaxle may cause loss of vehicle control in some driving conditions and cause an
8-38 Maintenance and do-it-yourself
accidentandpersonalinjury.
- If the wheels are changed for any reason, always replace with wheels which have the same off-set dimension. Wheel so far different off-set could cause premature tire wear, degrade vehicle handling characteristics and/or interference with the braked discs/drums. Such interference can lead to decreased braking efficiency and/or early brake pad/show wear. See "Wheelsandtries" (P.9-9) of this manual for wheel off-set dimensions.

■WiththeTEMPORARYUSEONLYspare tireinstalleddonotdrive yourvehicle at speedsfasterthan 50 MPH(80 km/h).
- When driving on roads covered with snow orice, the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tires should be used on the front wheels and original tire used on the rear wheels (drivewheels). Usetirechains only on the two rear original tires.
- Tire tread of the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire will wear a fasterratethan the standard tire. Replace the spare tire as soon as the tread wear indicators appear.
- Donotusethesparetireonother vehicles.
- Do not use more than one spare tire at thesametime.

CAUTION
- Do not use tire chains on a TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire. Tire chains will not
fitproperlyandmaycausedamageto thevehicle.
●Because the TEMPORARY USE ONLY spare tire is smaller than the original tire, ground clearance is reduced. To avoid damage to the vehicle, donot drive over obstacles. Also on to drive the vehicle through an automatic car wash since it may get caught.

Octaneratingtips
Using unlegadedgasoline with an octane rating lower than recommended above can cause persistent, heavysparkknock. (Sparkknock is a metallic rapping noise.) If severe, this can lead to an injured damage. If you detect epistersent the heavyspark knock even when using gas gasoline of the stated octanating, or if you hear steady sparkknock while holding a steady speed on levelroads, have an infinitretailer correct the condition. Failure to correct the condition is misuse the vehicle, for which infinitile is not responsible.
Incorrect ignition timing will result in knocking, after run over heating. This turn may cause excessive fuel consumption, or damage to the engine. If any of the

above symptoms are encountered, have your vehicle checked at an INFINIT retailer or other competent service facility. However, now and then you may notice lightsparknockforashort timwhile accelerating or driving up hills. This is no cause for concern, because you get the greatest fuel benefit when there is light sparkknockforashort time under heavy engine load.
