checks and inspections or have their INFINITI dealers perform them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.

Reference page
Tires
Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.
Wheel lug nuts
When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any loose
nuts. Tighten if necessary.
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary.
Tire rotation
Tires should be rotated every 12,000 km (7,500 miles).
Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)
transmitter components
Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seat, valve core and cap when the tires
are replaced due to wear or age.
Wheel alignment and
balance
If the vehicle pulls to either side while driving on a straight and level road, or if
you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel align-
ment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds, wheel bal-
ancing may be needed.
Windshield wiper
blades
Check for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly.
—
Doors and engine
hood
Check that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the back
door. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make
sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary
latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lubri-
cation frequently.
Lamps
Make sure that the head lamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and
other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check head
lamp aim. Clean the head lamps on a regular basis.
Item

Warning lamps and
chimes
Make sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly.
Windshield wiper and
washer
Check that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak.
—
Windshield defroster
Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner.
—
Steering wheel
Check that it has the specified play. Be sure to check for changes in the steering
condition, such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: less than 35mm (1.38 in)
Seats
Check seat position controls such as seat adjusters, seat back recliner, etc. to
make sure they operate smoothly and that all latches lock securely in every po-
sition. Check that the head restraints move up and down smoothly and that the
locks (if equipped) hold securely in all latched positions. Check that the latches
lock securely for folding-down rear seat backs.

UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically (e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel).
Seat belts
Check that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters and
retractors) operate properly and smoothly and are installed securely. Check the
belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.
Accelerator pedal
Check the pedal for smooth operation and make sure the pedal does not catch
or require uneven effort. Keep the floor mats away from the pedal.
Brakes
Check that the brake does not pull the vehicle to one side when applied.
—
Brake pedal and
booster
Check the pedal for smooth operation and make sure it has the proper distance
under it when depressed fully. Check the brake booster function. Be sure to keep
the floor mats away from the pedal.
Parking brake
Check that the lever or the pedal has the proper travel and make sure that the
vehicle is held securely on a fairly steep hill when only the parking brake is ap-
plied.
Automatic transmis-
sion “Park” mecha-
nism
Check that the lock release button on the selector lever operates properly and
smoothly. On a fairly steep hill check that the vehicle is held securely with the se-

Engine coolant level
Check the coolant level when the engine is cold.
Radiator and hoses
Check the front of the radiator and clean off any dirt, insects, leaves, etc., that
may have accumulated. Make sure the hoses have no cracks, deformation, de-
terioration or loose connections.
—
Brake fluid level
Make sure that the brake fluid level is between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines on the
reservoir.
Battery
Check the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines.
Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under severe conditions require fre-
quent checks of the battery fluid level.
—

Make sure that no belt is frayed, worn, cracked or oily.
Engine oil level
Check the level on the oil level gauge after parking the vehicle on a level spot and
turning off the engine.

sion fluid level
Check the level on the fluid level gauge after putting the selector lever in “P” with
the engine idling.
Exhaust system
Make sure there are no loose supports, cracks or holes. If the sound of the ex-
haust seems unusual or there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immediately locate
the trouble and correct it.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Underbody
The underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those
used on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these sub-
stances, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around the
exhaust system. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly
flushed with plain water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt
can easily accumulate.
—
Fluid leaks
Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle
has been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use is
normal. If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check for
the cause and correct it immediately.
