•Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in
your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat
belt properly.
• Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt.
• Do not fold down the rear seats when
occupants are in the rear seat area or any
luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is clear
before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet
to get caught or pinched in the seat.
• Head restraints/headrests should be ad-
justed properly as they may provide sig-
nificant protection against injury in an
accident. Always replace and adjust
them properly if they have been removed
for any reason.
• If the head restraints/headrests are re-
moved for any reason, they should be se-
curely stored to prevent them from caus-
ing injury to passengers or damage to the
vehicle in case of sudden braking or an
accident. •
When returning the seatbacks to the up-
right position, be certain they are com-
pletely secured in the latched position. If
they are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or sud-
den stop.
• Properly secure all cargo to help prevent
it from sliding or shifting. Do not place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a
sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
Folding the rear bench seat
To fold the rear bench seat flat for maximum
cargo hauling:
1. Remove any object from the rear seat sit- ting area
2. Move each side of the rear seat com- pletely backwards. For additional infor-
mation, see “Forward and backward”
(P. 1-5).
3. Make sure that the head restraints/ headrests are lowered. For additional in-
formation, see “Lower” (P. 1-11).

4. Stow the rear seat belts in the seat belthooks found on the sides of the vehicle.
5. Lift up on the recline lever on the side of the outboard seats or pull the lever on
either side of the cargo area to fold the
seatbacks flat.
• If one of the rear seatbacks does not fold flat completely, move the corre-
sponding Front Power Seat forward,
push up the seatback until it latches in
place and remove the head restraints/
headrests. For additional information,
see “Remove” (P. 1-9). 6. To return the rear bench seats to a seating
position, push up on the seatback until it
latches in place.
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement the
other vehicle safety systems. They may
provide additional protection against in-
jury in certain rear end collisions. Adjust-
able head restraints/headrests must be
adjusted properly, as specified in this sec-
tion. Check the adjustment after someone
else uses the seat. Do not attach anything
to the head restraint/headrest stalk, ex-
cept for genuine INFINITI accessories spe-
cifically tested for use with the vehicle’s
head restraint/headrest stalk. Do not re-
move the head restraint/headrest. Do not
use the seat if the head restraint/headrest
has been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, reinstall and prop-
erly adjust the head restraint/headrest
before an occupant uses the seating posi-
tion. Failure to follow these instructions
can reduce the effectiveness of the head
restraints/headrests. This may increase
the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision.

• Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/headrest that may be integrated,
adjustable or non-adjustable. • Adjustable head restraints/headrests have
multiple notches along the stalk(s) to lock
them in a desired adjustment position.
• The non-adjustable head restraints/ headrests have a single locking notch to
secure them to the seat frame.
• Proper Adjustment: – For the adjustable type, align the headrestraint/headrest so the center of your
ear is approximately level with the center
of the head restraint/headrest.
– If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place the head
restraint/headrest at the highest
position.
• If the head restraint/headrest has been re- moved, ensure that it is reinstalled and
locked in place before riding in that desig-
nated seating position.ADJUSTABLE HEAD

SMALL CHILDREN
Children that are over 1 year old and weigh at
least 20 lbs. (9 kg) should remain in a rear-
facing child restraint as long as possible up to
the height or weight limit of the child re-
straint. Children who outgrow the height or
weight limit of the rear-facing child restraint
and are at least 1 year old should be secured
in a forward-facing child restraint with a har-
ness. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions
for minimum and maximum weight and
height recommendations. INFINITI recom-
mends that small children be placed in child
restraints that comply with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. You should choose
a child restraint that fits your vehicle and
always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
LARGER CHILDREN
Children should remain in a forward-facing
child restraint with a harness until they reach
the maximum height or weight limit allowed
by the child restraint manufacturer.
Once a child outgrows the height or weight
limit of the harness-equipped forward-facing
child restraint, INFINITI recommends that
the child be placed in a commercially available
booster seat to obtain proper seat belt fit. Fora seat belt to fit properly, the booster seat
should raise the child so that the shoulder belt
is properly positioned across the chest and
the top, middle portion of the shoulder. The
shoulder belt should not cross the neck or
face and should not fall off the shoulder. The
lap belt should lie snugly across the lower hips
or upper thighs, not the abdomen. A booster
seat can only be used in seating positions that
have a three-point type seat belt. The
booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and
have a label certifying that it complies with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
A booster seat should be used until the child
can pass the seat belt fit test below:
• Are the child’s back and hips against the
vehicle seatback?
• Is the child able to sit without slouching?
• Do the child’s knees bend easily over the front edge of the seat with feet flat on the
floor?
• Can the child safely wear the seat belt (lap belt low and snug across the hips and
shoulder belt across mid-chest and
shoulder)?
• Is the child able to use the properly adjusted head restraint/headrest? • Will the child be able to stay in position for
the entire ride?
If you answered no to any of these questions,
the child should remain in a booster seat us-
ing a three-point type seat belt.NOTE:
Laws in some communities may follow dif-
ferent guidelines. Check local and state
regulations to confirm your child is using the
correct restraint system before traveling.
LRS2690

7. Check to make sure that the child restraintis properly secured prior to each use. If the
seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 1
through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt fully retracted, the ALR mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
For additional information, see “Child safety”
(P. 1-20) and “Child restraints” (P. 1-22) be-
fore installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs. (29.5 kg). If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs. (29.5 kg), use the vehi-
cle's seat belt (not the lower anchors) to in-
stall the child restraint. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions for
installation.
Follow these steps to install a forward-
facing child restraint in the rear seats using
the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manu-
facturer's instructions. 2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors.
Check to make sure the LATCH attach-
ment is properly attached to the lower
anchors.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top
tether strap, route the top tether strap
and secure the tether strap to the tether
anchor point. For additional information,
see “Installing top tether strap” (P. 1-38).
Do not install child restraints that require
the use of a top tether strap in seating
positions that do not have a top tether
anchor. 3. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. If the head restraint/
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint/headrest when the child re-
straint is removed. For additional infor-
mation, see “Head restraints/headrests”
(P. 1-7).
