Owner`s manual

O Lower your speed when encoun-
tering strong crosswinds. With its
higher center of gravity, your
INFINITI is more affected by gusty
side winds. Slower speeds en-
sure better vehicle control.
O Do not drive beyond the perfor-
mance of the tires even with
4WD.
Accelerating quickly, sharp steer-
ing maneuvers or sudden braking
may cause loss of control.
O Install the same size of winter
tires on all four (4) wheels (such
as studless tires) or install tire
chains to the rear wheels when
driving on slippery roads (e.g.,
after a snow) and drive carefully.
O Be sure to check the brakes im-
mediately after driving in mud or
water as specified in ‘‘WET
BRAKES’’ under the heading
‘‘Precautions when driving’’.
O Avoid parking your vehicle on
steep hills. If you get out of the
vehicle and it rolls forward, back-
ward or sideways, you could be
injured.
O Whenever you drive off-road
through sand, mud or water as
deep as the wheel hub, more
frequent maintenance may be re-
quired. For details, refer to
‘‘Maintenance under severe driv-
ing conditions’’ under the head-
ing ‘‘Maintenance schedule’’.
