WARNINGO After adjustment, release the adjust-
ment button and try to move the
shoulder belt down to make sure it is
securely fixed in position.
O The shoulder belt anchor height
should be adjusted to the position
best for you. Failure to do so may
reduce the effectiveness of the entire
restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an
accident.
Shoulder belt guide (Coupe) The shoulder arm can be adjusted to allow
easier access to the shoulder belt. The arm
can also be folded down to allow rear seat
passengers easier access.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS If, because of body size or driving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoulder belt
and fasten it, an extender is available which is
compatible with the installed seat belts. The
extender adds approximately 8 inches (200
mm) of length and may be used for either the
driver or front passenger seating position. See your INFINITI retailer for assistance if the
extender is required.
WARNING O Only INFINITI belt extenders, made by
the same company which made the
original equipment belts, should be
used with INFINITI belts.
O Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal in-
jury in the event of an accident.
O Never use seat belt extenders to in-
stall child restraints. If the child re-
straint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured in a
collision or a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE O To clean the seat belt webbings, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or carpets.
Then brush the webbing, wipe it with a cloth
and allow it to dry in the shade. Do not allow SSS0222

WARNINGO Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help
keep out intruders.
O Before opening any door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
O Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH KEY (Driver's side)
Power The power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors, trunk lid and fuel filler lid
simultaneously.
O Turning the driver's door key to the front of
the vehicle will lock all doors, trunk lid and
fuel filler lid.
O Turning the driver's door key one time to
the rear of the vehicle will unlock the driv-
er's door. From that position, returning the
key to neutral (where the key can only be
removed and inserted) and turning it to the rear again within 5 seconds will unlock all
doors, fuel filler lid and trunk lid.
WINDOWS OPEN/CLOSE WITH
KEY Turn the driver's door key to the unlock posi-
tion and hold for about 1 second, all door
windows will begin to lower.
To stop opening, turn the key to the neutral
position.
To close all door windows, turn the key to the
lock position and hold for about 1 second.
To stop closing, turn the key to the neutral
position.
The rear door windows will operate 0.5 sec-
onds after the front windows' operation (if so
equipped).

obstruction, the auto reverse function will acti-
vate. SPA1421

AUTOMATIC SEAT POSITIONER
OPERATION This system is designed so that the driver's
seat will automatically move when the auto-
matic transmission selector lever is in the P
(Park) position or when the parking brake is
applied (manual transmission model). This al-
lows the driver to get in and out of the driver's
seat more easily.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will slide backward. (AT mod-
els only)
O When the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is opened with the
key turned to ACC or LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ON to ACC
with the driver's door open.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will return to the positions
before being set. (AT models only)
O When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is closed with the
key turned to LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ACC to ON with the driver's door open.

push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory

switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored the position, the indica-
tor light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.

fuse blows, the memory will be canceled. In
such a case, reset the desired positions
using the following procedures.
1. Open and close the driver's door more than two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.
2. Reset the desired position using the previ-
ous procedure.

into the ignition switch within approximately 1
minute, the driver's seat will move to the
memorized position. (AT models only) System operation The automatic drive positioner system will not
