6. Check that the retractor is in the auto-
matic locking mode by trying to pull
more belt out of the retractor. If you
cannot pull any more belt webbing out
of the retractor, the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure that the child re-
straint is properly secured prior to
each use. If the seat belt is not
locked, repeat steps 3 through 7.
8. Turn the ignition switch to the ON po-
sition. The passenger air bag status
light should illuminate. If this
light is not illuminated, see ªFront
passenger air bag and status lightº
later in this section. Move the child re-
straint to another seating position.
Have the system checked by an IN-
FINITI dealer.
After the child restraint is removed and
the seat belt is fully retracted, the auto-
matic locking mode (child restraint mode)
will be canceled. PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING O Infants and small children should always
be placed in an appropriate child re-
straint while riding in the vehicle. Failure
to use a child restraint or booster seat
can result in serious injury or death.
O Infants and small children should never
be carried on your lap. It is not possible
for even the strongest adult to resist the
forces of a severe accident. The child
could be crushed between the adult and
parts of the vehicle. Also, do not put the
same seat belt around both your child
and yourself.
O INFINITI recommends that the booster
seat be installed in the rear seat. Accord-
ing to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
O A booster seat must only be installed in
a seating position that has a
lap/shoulder belt. Failure to use a three- point type seat belt with a booster seat
can result in a serious injury in sudden
stop or collision.
O An improperly installed booster seat
could lead to serious injury or death in
an accident.

BOOSTER SEAT INSTALLATION ON
REAR SEAT OUTBOARD OR CENTER
POSITIONS
CAUTIONDo not use a lap/shoulder belt automatic
locking mode when using a booster seat
with the seat belts.
When you install a booster seat in the
rear seat, follow these steps: 1. Position the booster seat on the seat.
Only place it in a front-facing direc-
tion. Always follow the booster seat
manufacturer's instructions.
2. The booster seat should be positioned
on the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the
head restraint to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. See ªHead restraint
adjustmentº earlier in this section. If
the head restraint is removed, store it
in a secure place. Be sure to install
the head restraint when the booster
seat is removed. If the seating posi-
tion does not have an adjustable head restraint and it is interfering with the
proper booster seat fit, try another
seating position or a different booster
seat.
3. Position the lap portion of the seat
belt low and snug on the child's hips.
Be sure to follow the booster seat
manufacturer's instructions for ad-
justing the belt routing.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the
seat belt toward the retractor to take
up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder
belt is positioned across the top,
middle portion of the child's shoulder.
Be sure to follow the booster seat
manufacturer's instructions for ad-
justing the belt routing.
5. Follow the warnings, cautions and in-
structions for properly fastening a seat
belt shown in the ªThree-point type
seat belts with retractorº earlier in
this section.LRS0452

all instructions in this manual concerning
the use of seats, seat belts and child re-
straints can increase the risk or severity of
injury in an accident.
Status light:
The front passenger air bag status light
is located in the center display. The
light operates as follows:
O Unoccupied passenger seat: The is
OFF and the front passenger air bag is
OFF and will not inflate in a crash.
O Passenger seat occupied by a small
adult, child or child restraint as out-
lined in this section: The illumi-
nates to indicate that the front pas-
senger air bag is OFF and will not in-
flate in a crash.
O Occupied passenger seat and the pas-
senger meets the conditions outlined
in this section: The light is OFF to
indicate that the front passenger air
bag is operational.
Front passenger air bag:
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is operated under some conditions as de-
scribed below in accordance with U.S.
regulations. If the front passenger air bag
is OFF, it will not inflate in a crash. The
driver air bag and other air bags in your
vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passenger
seat occupants, such as children, by re-
quiring the air bag to be automatically
turned OFF. Certain sensors are used to
meet the requirements.
One sensor used is the occupant classifi-
cation sensor (pressure sensor). It is in
the bottom of the front passenger seat
cushion and is designed to detect an oc-
cupant and objects on the seat by weight.
It works together with seat belt sensors
described later. For example, if a child is
in the front passenger seat, the advanced
air bag system is designed to turn the
passenger air bag OFF in accordance with
the regulations. Also, if a child restraint of
the type specified in the regulations is on
the seat, its weight and the child's weight
can be detected and cause the air bag to
turn OFF. Occupant classification sensor
operation can vary depending on the front
passenger seat belt sensors. The front passenger seat belt sensors are
designed to detect if the seat belt is
buckled and the amount of tension on the
seat belt, such as when it is in the auto-
matic locking mode (child restraint mode).
Based on the weight on the seat detected
by the occupant classification sensor and
the belt tension detected on the seat belt,
the INFINITI advanced air bag system de-
termines whether the front passenger air
bag should be automatically turned OFF
as required by the regulations.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who
are properly seated and using the seat
belt as outlined in this manual should not
cause the passenger air bag to be auto-
matically turned OFF. For small adults it
may be turned OFF, however, if the occu-
pant takes his/her weight off the seat
cushion (for example, by not sitting up-
right, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or
by otherwise being out of position), this
could cause the sensor to turn the air bag
OFF. In addition, if the occupant improp-
erly uses the seat belt in the automatic
locking mode (child restraint mode), this
could cause the air bag to be turned OFF.
Always be sure to be seated and wearing
the seat belt properly for the most effec-
tive protection by the seat belt and
supplemental air bag.

INFINITI recommends that pre-teens and
children be properly restrained in a rear
seat. INFINITI also recommends that ap-
propriate child restraints and booster
seats be properly installed in a rear seat.
If this is not possible, the occupant clas-
sification sensor and seat belt sensors
are designed to operate as described
above to turn the front passenger air bag
OFF for specified child restraints as re-
quired by the regulations. Failing to prop-
erly secure child restrains and to use the
automatic locking mode (child restraint
mode) may allow the restraint to tip or
move in an accident or sudden stop. This
can also result in the passenger air bag
inflating in a crash instead of being OFF.
See ªChild restraintsº earlier in this sec-
tion for proper use and installation.
If the front passenger seat is not occu-
pied, the passenger air bag is designed
not to inflate in a crash. However, heavy
objects placed on the seat could result in
air bag inflation, because of the object's
weight detected by the occupant classifi-
cation sensor. Other conditions could also
result in air bag inflation, such as if a
child is standing on the seat, or if two
children are on the seat, contrary to the
instructions in this manual. Always be sure that you and all vehicle occupants
are seated and restrained properly.
Using the passenger air bag status light,
you can monitor when the front pas-
senger air bag is automatically turned OFF
with the seat occupied. The light will not
illuminate when the front passenger seat
is unoccupied.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the
passenger air bag status light is illumi-
nated (indicating that the air bag is OFF),
it could be that the person is a small
adult, or is not sitting on the seat prop-
erly or is not using the seat belt properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the
front seat, the passenger air bag status
light may or may not be illuminated, de-
pending on the size of the child and the
type of child restraint being used. If the
passenger air bag status light is not illu-
minated (indicating that the air bag might
inflate in a crash), it could be that the
child restraint or seat belt is not being
used properly. In rare cases, the pas-
senger air bag status light will not illumi-
nate even though the air bag is OFF.
If such situations happen, properly posi-
tion and restrain the occupant or child re-
straint. Otherwise reposition the occupant or child restraint in a rear seat. If you
have any questions about whether your
passenger air bag is working as designed,
your INFINITI dealer can confirm that it is
working properly by using a special tool.
The INFINITI advanced air bag system and
passenger air bag status light will take a
few seconds to register a change in the
passenger seat status. For example, if a
large adult who is sitting in the front pas-
senger seat exits the vehicle, the passen-
ger air bag status light will change from
OFF to ON for a few seconds and then to
OFF. This is normal system operation and
does not indicate a malfunction.
If a malfunction occurs in the front pas-
senger air bag system, the supplemental
air bag warning light , located in the
meter and gauges area will blink. Have
the system checked by an INFINITI dealer.

Never leave these keys in the vehicle.
Additional or replacement keys:
If you still have a key, the key number is
not necessary when you need extra
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System keys.
An INFINITI dealer can duplicate it. As
many as 5 INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer
System keys can be used with one ve-
hicle. You should bring all registered keys
that you have to an INFINITI dealer for reg-
istration. This is because the registration
process will erase the memory of all key
codes previously registered into the
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System. After
the registration process, these compo-
nents will only recognize keys coded into
the INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
during registration. Any key that is not
given to your dealer at the time of regis-
tration will no longer be able to start your
vehicle.
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with salt water. This
could affect system function. WARNING O Always have the doors locked while driv-
ing. 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
unintentionally 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 inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved in se-
rious accidents.
LOCKING WITH KEY

Lockout protection When the power door lock switch (driver
or front passenger) is moved to the LOCK
position with the key in the ignition and
any door open, all doors will lock and un-
lock automatically. This helps to prevent
the keys from being accidentally locked
inside the vehicle.
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
(Sedan) Child safety rear door lock helps prevent
rear doors from being opened acciden-
tally, especially when small children are
in the vehicle.
When the levers are in the LOCK
q 1
posi-
tion, the rear doors can be opened by the
outside door handles only.
To disengage, move the levers to the un-
lock position

. It is possible to lock/unlock all doors,
trunk lid and fuel-filler door and activate
the panic alarm by using the keyfob from
outside the vehicle.
Before locking the doors, make sure the
key is not left in the vehicle.
The keyfob can operate at a maximum
distance of approximately 33 ft (10 m)
away from the vehicle. (The operating dis-
tance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 5 keyfobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information about pur-
chase and use of additional keyfobs, con-
tact an INFINITI dealer.
The keyfob will not function when:
O the battery is completely discharged,
O the distance between the vehicle and
the keyfob is more than 33 ft (10 m).
The panic alarm will not activate when the
key is in the ignition switch.

WARNINGO Do not leave children, impaired adults, or
pets alone in your vehicle. They could ac-
cidentally injure themselves or others
through inadvertent operation of the ve-
hicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, tempera-
tures in a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
O Closely supervise children when they are
around cars to prevent them from
playing and becoming locked in the
trunk where they could be seriously in-
jured. Keep the car locked, with the rear
seatback and trunk lid securely latched
when not in use, and prevent children's
access to car keys.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon monoxide)
WARNINGDo not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
O If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all win-
dows fully open, and have the vehicle in-
spected immediately.
O Do not run the engine in closed spaces
such as a garage.
O Do not park the vehicle with the engine
running for any extended length of time.
O Keep the trunk lid closed while driving,
otherwise exhaust gases could be drawn
into the passenger compartment. If you
must drive with the trunk lid open, follow
these precautions:
Ð Open all the windows.
Ð Set the air recirculation switch OFF
and the fan control at high to circu-
late the air.
O If electrical wiring or other cable connec-
tions must pass to a trailer through the
seal on the trunk lid or the body, follow
the manufacturer's recommendation to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
O If a special body, camper, or other equip-
ment is added for recreational or other
usage, follow the manufacturer's recom-
mendation to prevent carbon monoxide
entry into the vehicle. (Some recre-
ational vehicle appliances such as
stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may
also generate carbon monoxide.)
O The exhaust system and body should be
inspected by a qualified mechanic when-
ever:
Ð Your vehicle is raised while being ser-
viced.
Ð You suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering into the passenger compart-
ment.
Ð You notice a change in the sound of
the exhaust system.
Ð You have had an accident involving
damage to the exhaust system, un-
derbody, or rear of the vehicle.PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING AND
