User manual INFINITI M45 2004

[. . . ] Foreword Your INFINITI represents a new way of thinking about vehicle design. It integrates advanced engineering and superior craftsmanship with a simple, refined aesthetic sensitivity associated with traditional Japanese culture. The car itself is important, but so is the sense of harmony that the vehicle evokes in its driver, and the sense of satisfaction you feel with the INFINITI -- from the way it looks and drives to the high level of retailer service. To ensure that you enjoy your INFINITI to the fullest, we encourage you to read this Owner's Manual immediately. [. . . ] (Some recreational vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrigerator, heaters, etc. may also generate carbon monoxide. ) The exhaust system and body should be inspected by a qualified mechanic whenever: a. You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the passenger 5-2 Starting and driving compartment. You have had an accident involving damage to the exhaust system, underbody, or rear of the vehicle. CAUTION Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded gasoline seriously reduce the three way catalyst's ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants. Malfunctions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three way catalyst, causing it to overheat. Do not keep driving if the engine misfires, or if noticeable loss of performance or other unusual operating conditions are detected. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire, damaging the three way catalyst. Do not push or tow your vehicle to start the engine. LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM The low tire pressure warning system displays pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the monitor screen by sending a signal from a sensor that is installed in each wheel. The low tire pressure warning system will activate only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above 20 MPH (32 km/h). Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a flat tire while driving). 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. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature as described above, check the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light OFF. Frequently check the tire pressure information display on the monitor screen and adjust pressure of each tire properly. (The order of the tire Starting and driving THREE WAY CATALYST The three way catalyst is an emission control device installed in the exhaust system. Exhaust gases in the converter are burned at high temperatures to help reduce pollutants. WARNING The exhaust gas and the exhaust system are very hot. Keep people, animals or flammable materials away from the exhaust system components. Do not stop or park the vehicle over flammable materials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags. They may ignite and cause a fire. 5-3 pressure figures displayed on the screen does not correspond with the actual order of the tire position. ) See "Vehicle information" in the "4. Monitor, climate, audio and voice-activated control systems" section for tire pressure monitor. Low tire pressure warning If the vehicle is being driven with an extremely low tire pressure (lower than 27 psi, 190 kPa), the FLAT TIRE warning message will be displayed on the monitor screen.
