AVOIDING COLLISION AND
ROLLOVER
WARNING
Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe and
prudent manner may result in loss of control
or an accident.
Be alert and drive defensively at all times.
Obey all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive
speed, high speed cornering, or sudden
steering maneuvers, because these driving
practices could cause you to lose control of
your vehicle.
As with any vehicle, a loss of
control could result in a collision with other
vehicles or objects, or cause the vehicle to
rollover, particularly if the loss of control
causes the vehicle to slide sideways.
Be at-
tentive at all times, and avoid driving when
tired. Never drive when under the influence
of alcohol or drugs (including prescription
or over-the-counter drugs which may cause
drowsiness). Always wear your seat belt as
outlined in the “Seat belts” section of this
manual, and also instruct your passengers
to do so.
Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers.
In a rollover
crash, an unbelted or improperly belted
person is significantly more likely to be in-
jured or killed than a person properly
wearing a seat belt.
DRINKING ALCOHOL/
DRUGS AND DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of alcohol or
drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream reduces co-
ordination, delays reaction time and impairs
judgement. Driving after drinking alcohol in-
creases the likelihood of being involved in an
accident injuring yourself and others. Addi-
tionally, if you are injured in an accident, alco-
hol can increase the severity of the injury.
INFINITI is committed to safe driving. You
must not drive under the influence of al-
cohol. Every year thousands of people are
injured or killed in alcohol related acci-
dents. Although the local laws vary on
what is considered to be legally intoxi-
cated, the fact is that alcohol affects all
people differently and most people under-
estimate the effects of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t
mix!
And that’s true for drugs too (over the
counter, prescription, and illegal drugs).
Don’t drive if your ability to operate your
vehicle is impaired by alcohol, drugs, or
some other physical condition.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) DRIVING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (For AWD
models)
WARNING
O
Do not drive beyond the performance ca-
pability of the tires, even with AWD en-
gaged. Accelerating quickly, sharp
steering maneuvers or sudden braking
may cause loss of control.
O
Always use tires of the same type, size,
brand, construction (bias, bias-belted or
radial), and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Install tire chains on the rear
wheels when driving on slippery roads
and drive carefully.
O
This vehicle is not designed for offroad
(rough road) use. Do not drive on sandy or
muddy roads that tires may get stuck in.
