Infrared variability of SS 433

New JHKLM photometry of SS 433 showing short time scale variabilities is reported for the period of 1983 July 16-22 UT. The entire body of infrared data included in this paper, Giles et al. (1980), and Catchpole et al. (1981), is examined with reference to periods of 164 days and 13.08 days. Comparison of the infrared light curves with the optical light curves of Leibowitz et al. (1984) makes it possible to conclude, within the context of an accretion disk model, that the majority of the infrared flux in the SS 433 system comes from the disk, and that the hot spot responsible for the 'hump' in the visual and infrared light curves has a color similar to the average of the disk. A two-dimensional Fourier analysis of the infrared data suggests that the brightness maximum occurs when, seen from the compact star, the noncompact companion passes through a fixed elongation relative to the disk line of nodes with the orbital plane, if the precession is prograde.
