If you have an accident, insist on Genuine Infiniti CollisionParts. If you want your vehicle to be restored using partsmade to Infiniti’s original exacting specifications – if youwant it to last, help to protect your personal safety and tohelp hold its resale value, the solution is simple. Tell yourinsurance agent and your repair shop to use only GenuineInfiniti Collision Parts.

Many non-genuine parts are copies made from impres-sions of Infiniti parts and may not match the specifica-tions and performance standards of Genuine InfinitiParts. As a result, non-genuine parts may not look or fitright, and may be less safe.

The hood on your vehicle is a good example. Infiniti de-signed it with hood buckling creases to help prevent thehood from penetrating the interior of your vehicle in anaccident. Non-genuine parts may not provide such built-insafeguards.

In some states, the law says you must be advised if non-genuine parts are used to repair your vehicle. Why shouldyou take a chance?

Replacement Panel Limited Lifetime CorrosionWarranty*See your participating Infiniti dealer for details.

If you have your collision damage repaired using GenuineInfiniti Outer Sheet Metal Panels you don’t have to worryabout corrosion. That’s because these panels are war-ranted against inside out rust-through perforation for aslong as you own your Infiniti. Another reason to insist onGenuine Infiniti Collision Repair Parts.

* This warranty does not apply to vehicles or parts, not distributed by Nissan North America and/or sold outside the United States.

GENUINE INFINITI COLLISION PARTS

As a condition of your vehicle’s warranty, you are responsible for properly maintaining your vehicle. In maintaining yourvehicle, you should follow either Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 as listed below. Use these guidelines to determine whichmaintenance schedule to use.

SCHEDULE 1 (more severe operatingconditions), every 3,750 miles or 3 months,whichever comes firstUse Schedule 1 if you primarily operate yourvehicle under any of these conditions:● Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles innormal temperatures or less than 10 miles infreezing temperatures● Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or lowspeed driving for long distances● Driving in dusty conditions or on rough,muddy, or salt-spread roads● Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-topcarrier

SCHEDULE 2 (less severe operatingconditions), every 7,500 miles or 6 months,whichever comes firstSchedule 2 features 7,500-mile service inter-vals; with Schedule 2 fewer maintenance itemsare regularly checked or replaced than withSchedule 1.Generally, Schedule 2 applies only to highwaydriving in temperate conditions. Use Schedule2 only if you primarily operate your vehicle un-der conditions other than those listed inSchedule 1.

PREMIUM MAINTENANCE*

Premium Maintenance is a Infiniti-recommended optional upgrade that adds ser-vices to Schedule 1 and 2 when maintenance isperformed.Performing the Premium upgrade services mayoptimize the performance, durability, reliability,and resale value of your vehicle. (PremiumMaintenance items are available at every 30,000 miles or 24 month interval.)

* Premium Maintenance is an Infiniti-recommended option; however, you need not perform such maintenance in order to maintain the warranties which come with yourInfiniti. Premium Maintenance may not be available outside the United States, please inquire of your dealer.

❑ For the ultimate in preventative maintenance, ask your Service Consultant for a complimentary Multi-Point Inspection every time you visit your participating Infinitidealer. See page 12 and 13 for more information on Multi-Point Inspections.

DETERMINING THE PROPER MAINTENANCE INTERVAL

8

The following descriptions are pro-vided to give you a better understand-ing of the scheduled maintenanceitems that should be regularlychecked or replaced. The mainte-nance log indicates at whichmileage/time intervals each item re-quires service.

In addition to scheduled mainte-nance, your Infiniti requires thatsome items be checked during nor-mal day-to-day operation. You canfind these items listed under “Gen-eral Maintenance” in Chapter 8 ofyour Owner’s manual.

Items marked with “*” are recom-mended by Infiniti for reliable vehicleoperation. You are not required to per-form such maintenance in order tomaintain the emission warranty ormanufacturer recall liability. Othermaintenance items and intervals arerequired.
