WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS

1-2Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS0133
WARNING
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. 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 upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-11).
. After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
. The seatback should not be reclined any
more than needed for comfort. Seat belts
are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the
seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk
of sliding under the lap belt and being
injured is increased.

Folding
Before folding the rear seats:
Remove drink containers from the rear cup
holder.
To fold down the seatbacks:
Pull the lever
*Aor*Band fold the
seatback.
Return the rear seatback manually until it
securely locks in position.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Head restraints supplement the other vehi-
cle safety systems. They may provide addi-
tional protection against injury in certain
rear end collisions. Adjust the head re-
straints properly, as specified in this sec-
tion. Check the adjustment after someone
else uses the seat. Do not attach anything
to the head restraint stalks or remove the
head restraint. Do not use the seat if the
head restraint has been removed. If the
head restraint was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint before an
occupant uses the seating position. Failure
to follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraints. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

position.
SSS0508
Front-seat Active Head Restraint
The Active Head Restraint moves forward
utilizing the force that the seatback re-
ceives from the occupant in a rear-end
collision. The movement of the head
restraint helps support the occupant’ s
head by reducing its backward movement
and helping absorb some of the forces that
may lead to whiplash-type injuries.
Active Head Restraints are effective for
collisions at low to medium speeds in
which it is said that whiplash injury occurs
most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in

tened, it may indicate the pre-crash seat
belt system has a malfunction. Have your
INFINITI retailer check and repair the
system.
When the seat belt is retracted repeatedly
in a short period of time, the motor may
not be able to retract the seat belt. After 30
seconds, the motor reactivates and retracts
the seat belt. If the seat belt still cannot be
retracted by the motor, the pre-crash seat
belt system has a malfunction. Have your
INFINITI retailer check and repair the
system.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WARNING
. Every person who drives or rides in this
vehicle should use a seat belt at all
times.
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck
or other serious injuries. 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 upright. Always sit well back 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 Re-
tractor (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 can not 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.
SSS0292
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats”(P.1-2).)
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.
.The retractor is designed to lockduring a sudden stop or on impact.
A slow pulling motion permits the
belt to move, and allows you some
freedom of movement in the seat.
.If the seat belt cannot be pulledfrom its fully retracted position,
firmly pull the belt and release it.
