engine INFINITI QX30 2017 Owner's Manual

Your INFINITI represents a new way of thinking about vehicle design. It integrates advanced engineering and superior craftsmanship with a simple,
refined aesthetic sensitivity associated with traditional Japanese culture.
The result is a different notion of luxury and beauty. The car itself is important, but so is the sense of harmony that the vehicle evokes in its driver,
and the sense of satisfaction you feel with the INFINITI — from the way it looks and drives to the high level of retailer service.
To ensure that you enjoy your INFINITI to the fullest, we encourage you to read this Owner’s Manual immediately. It explains all of the features, controls
and performance characteristics of your INFINITI; it also provides important instructions and safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet is included in your Owner’s literature portfolio. Always carry it with you when you take your vehicle to an
INFINITI retailer. The Warranty Information Booklet contents provide complete information about all warranties covering this vehicle, the requirements
to keep the warranties in effect as well as the INFINITI Roadside Assistance Program.
Additionally, a separate Customer Care and Lemon Law Information Booklet will explain how to resolve any concerns you may have with your vehicle,
as well as clarify your rights under your state’s lemon law.
In addition to factory-installed options, your vehicle may also be equipped with additional accessories prior to delivery. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. It is important that you familiarize yourself with all disclosures, warnings, cautions and instructions concerning
proper use of such accessories prior to operating the vehicle and/or accessory. It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for details
concerning the particular accessories with which your vehicle is equipped.
READ FIRST — THEN DRIVE SAFELY
Before driving your vehicle, read this Owner’s
Manual carefully. This will ensure familiarity
with controls and maintenance requirements,
assisting you in the safe operation of your
vehicle.
WARNING
Important safety information reminders!
Follow these important driving rules to help
ensure a safe and complete trip for you and
your passengers!
•NEVER drive under the influence of alcohol
or drugs.
•ALWAYS observe posted speed limits and
never drive too fast for conditions.
•ALWAYS use your seat belts and appropri-
ate child restraint systems. Preteen chil-
dren should be seated in the rear seat.

As with other vehicles with features for off-
road use, failure to operate all-wheel drive
models correctly may result in loss of control
or an accident. Be sure to read “Driving safety
precautions” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
FOREWORD

ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differ-
ently from an ordinary passenger car because it
has a higher center of gravity for off-road use. As
with other vehicles with features of this type,
failure to operate this vehicle correctly may re-
sult in loss of control or an accident.
For additional information, refer to “On-
pavement and off-road driving precautions”,
“Avoiding collision and rollover” and “Driving
safety precautions” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual.
MODIFICATION OF YOUR VEHICLE
This vehicle should not be modified. Modifica-
tion could affect its performance, safety or dura-
bility and may even violate governmental regu-
lations. In addition, damage or performance
problems resulting from modifications may not
be covered under INFINITI warranties.
WARNING
Installing an aftermarket On-Board Diagnostic
(OBD) plug-in device that uses the port during
normal driving, for example remote insurance
company monitoring, remote vehicle diagnos-
tics, telematics or engine reprogramming, maycause interference or damage to vehicle sys-
tems. We do not recommend or endorse the
use of any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices,
unless specifically approved by INFINITI. The
vehicle warranty may not cover damage
caused by any aftermarket plug-in device.

Operating tips:
•The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor stops
during the seat adjustment, wait 30 seconds,
then reactivate the switch.
•To avoid discharge of the battery, do not
operate the power seats for a long period of
time when the engine is not running.
NOTE

memory function (see Memory function (if
equipped) in the3. Pre-driving checks and ad-
justments section). Forward and backward

1-4Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
The seat belt warning light reminds you to
fasten your seat belts. The light illuminates if
the engine is started, all doors are closed and
the driver’s and/or front passenger’s seat belt
is unfastened. It will remain illuminated until
the driver and/or front passenger fastens their
seat belt. A chime will sound once the vehicle is
in motion.
If the seat belt warning light flashes, together
with an intermittent warning tone, this means
that the driver or passenger has not fastened
their seat belt, and the speed of the vehicle is
exceeding 15 MPH (25 km/h).
For additional information, refer toWarning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders
in the 2. Instruments and controls section.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT WITH
RETRACTOR
WARNING
•Every person who drives or rides in this ve-
hicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be in the rear seats and in
an appropriate restraint.
•Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous.
The shoulder belt will not be against your
body. In an accident, you could be thrown
into it and receive neck or other serious in-
juries. You could also slide under the lap
belt and receive serious internal injuries.
•For the most effective protection when the
vehicle is in motion, the seat should be up-
right. Always sit well back and upright in the
seat with both feet on the floor and adjust
the seat belt properly.
•Do not allow children to play with the seat
belts. Most seating positions are equipped
with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode seat belts. If the seat belt becomes
wrapped around a child’s neck with the ALR
mode activated, the child can be seriously
injured or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to
release the child. If the seat belt cannot be
unbuckled or is already unbuckled, release
the child by cutting the seat belt with a
suitable tool (such as a knife or scissors) to
release the seat belt.
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See
Seatsearlier in this
section.)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.NIC2743
1-14Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

Driver’s and passenger’s
supplemental knee air bags
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the driver’s and passenger’s knees in certain
collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the chest and pelvis areas of the driver and
front passenger in certain side-impact colli-
sions. The side air bag is designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
Window bag/roof-mounted curtain
side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bags
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the head of occupants in the outboard seat-
ing positions in certain side-impact or rollover
collisions. In a side impact, the curtain air bags
are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, curtain air
bags on both sides are designed to inflate and
remain inflated for a short time.
Curtain air bags are also designed to inflate in
certain types of rollover collisions or near roll-
overs. As a result, certain vehicle movements(for example, during severe off-roading) may
cause the curtain air bags to inflate.
The SRS is designed to
supplementthe crash
protection provided by the driver and front
passenger seat belts and is not a substitute for
them. Seat belts should always be correctly
worn and the occupant seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instrument
panel and front door finishers. For additional
information, see Seat beltsearlier in this
section.
The supplemental air bags operate only when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON, the
air bag warning light will illuminate. The air bag
warning light will turn off within a few seconds
after the engine is started if the system is opera-
tional. See Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders in the2. Instruments and
controls section for further details.

this, the force of the front air bag inflating can
increase the risk of injury if the occupant is too
close to, or is against, the front air bag module
during inflation. The front air bags deflate
quickly after a collision.
The front air bags operate only when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. After placing
the ignition switch in the ON position, the
supplemental air bag warning light illuminates.
The supplemental air bag warning light will turn
off a few seconds after the engine starts if the
system is operational.
Front passenger air bag and status
light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed to au-
tomatically turn OFF under some conditions.
Read this section carefully to learn how it op-
erates. Proper use of the seat, seat belt and
child restraints is necessary for most effective
protection. Failure to follow all instructions in
this manual concerning the use of seats, seat
belts and child restraints can increase the risk
or severity of injury in an accident.

multaneously for approximately six seconds.
The indicator lamps display the status of the
front-passenger front air bag:
•<PASSENGER AIRBAG ON> lights up: the front-
passenger front air bag is enabled. If, in the
event of an accident, all deployment criteria
are met, the front-passenger front air bag is
deployed.
•<PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF> lights up: the
front-passenger front air bag is disabled. It
will then not be deployed in the event of an
accident.
