ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (if so
equipped)
Engine block heaters are available
through INFINITI dealers to assist in cold
temperature starting. The engine block
heater should be used when the outside
temperature is 20°F (−7°C) or lower.
To use the engine block heater:
1. Turn the engine off.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the engine
block heater cord.
3. Plug the engine block heater cord into
a grounded 3-wire, 3-pronged exten-
sion cord.
4. Plug the extension cord into a Ground
Fault
Interrupt
(GFI)
protected,
grounded 110-volt AC (VAC) outlet.
5. The engine block heater must be
plugged in for at least 2 - 4 hours, de-
pending on outside temperatures, to
properly warm the engine coolant. Use
an appropriate timer to turn the en-
gine block heater on.
6. Before starting the engine, unplug and
properly store the cord to keep it away
from moving parts.
WARNING
O
Do not use your engine block heater with
an ungrounded electrical system or a
2-pronged adapter. You can be seriously
injured by an electrical shock if you use
an ungrounded connection.
O
Disconnect and properly store the en-
gine block heater cord before starting
the engine. Damage to the cord could re-
sult in an electrical shock and can cause
serious injury.
O
Use a heavy-duty 3-wire, 3-pronged ex-
tension cord rated for at least 10A. Plug
the extension cord into a Ground Fault
Interrupt (GFI) protected, grounded
110-VAC outlet. Failure to use the proper
extension cord or a grounded outlet can
result in a fire or electrical shock and
cause serious personal injury.
