belt INFINITI G35 2006 Owners Manual

ForewordYour INFINITI represents a new way of
thinking about vehicle design. It inte-
grates advanced engineering and supe-
rior craftsmanship with a simple, refined
aesthetic sensitivity associated with tra-
ditional 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 Ð 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 perfor-
mance characteristics of your INFINITI; it
also provides important instructions and
safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet
can be found in your Owner's literature
portfolio. The INFINITI Service and Mainte-
nance Guide explains details about main-
taining and servicing your vehicle. Always
carry it with you when you take your
INFINITI to an authorized retailer. The
portfolio contents provide complete infor-
mation about all warranties covering this
vehicle, the periodic maintenance re- quired 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.
INFINITI is dedicated to providing a satis-
fying ownership experience for as long as
you own your car. Should you have any
questions regarding your INFINITI or an
INFINITI dealer, please contact our Con-
sumer Affairs department at:
In U.S. 1-800-662-6200.
In Canada 1-800-361-4792.

tenance requirements, assisting you in

WARNINGO 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 se-
rious internal injuries. O For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat and adjust the seat belt properly.
See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº
later in this section. FRONT POWER SEAT ADJUSTMENT
WARNING O Do not adjust the driver's seat while
driving so full attention may be given to
vehicle operation.
O Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved in se-
rious accidents.
Operating tips O The seat motor has an auto-reset over-
load protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 sec-
onds, then reactivate the switch.
O Do not operate the power seat for a
long period of time when the engine is
off. This will discharge the battery.
See ªAutomatic drive positionerº in the
ª3. Pre-driving checks and adjustmentsº
for automatic seat positioner operation (if
so equipped). SSS0133B
