HEAD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Head restraints supplement the other vehicle
safety systems. They may provide additional
protection against injury in certain rear end
collisions. Adjust the head restraints properly,
as specified in this section. Check the adjust-
ment 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, install and prop-
erly adjust the head restraint before an occu-
pant 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.The illustration shows the seating positions
equipped with head restraints. The head re-
straints are adjustable.

Front-seat Active Head Restraints
The Active Head Restraint moves forward utiliz-
ing the force that the seatback receives from
the occupant in a rear-end collision. The move-
ment 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 colli-
sions at low to medium speeds in which it is
said that whiplash injury occurs most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in certain
rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head
restraints return to their original positions.Adjust the Active Head Restraints properly as
described earlier in this section.
ADJUSTABLE HEADRESTS
WARNING
The adjustable headrests supplement the
other vehicle safety systems. They may provide
additional protection against injury in certain
rear end collisions. Adjust the headrest prop-
erly, as specified in this section. Check the ad-
justment after someone else uses the seat. Do
not attach anything to the headrest stalks or
remove the headrest. Do not use the seat if the
headrest has been removed. If the headrest
was removed, install and properly adjust the
headrest before an occupant uses the seating
position. Failure to follow these instructions
can reduce the effectiveness of the headrests.
This may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE
If you are wearing your seat belt properly
adjusted, and you are sitting upright and well
back in your seat with both feet on the floor,
your chances of being injured or killed in an
accident and/or the severity of injury may be
greatly reduced. INFINITI strongly encourages
you and all of your passengers to buckle up
every time you drive, even if your seating
position includes a supplemental air bag.
Most U.S. states and Canadian provinces or ter-
ritories specify that seat belts be worn at all
times when a vehicle is being driven.

WARNING
cEvery person who drives or rides in this ve-
hicle should use a seat belt at all times. Chil-
dren should be properly restrained in the
rear seat and, if appropriate, in a child
restraint.
c The seat belt should be properly adjusted to
a snug fit. Failure to do so may reduce the
effectiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of injury
in an accident. Serious injury or death can
occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
c Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
the belt behind your back, under your arm or
across your neck. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not falling off
your shoulder.
c Position the lap belt as low and snug as
possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST.
A lap belt worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an accident.
c Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely fas-
tened to the proper buckle.
c Do not wear the seat belt inside out or
twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness. c
Do not allow more than one person to use the
same seat belt.
c Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
c If the seat belt warning light glows continu-
ously while the ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all seat belts fastened, it
may indicate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked by an INFINITI
retailer.
c No changes should be made to the seat belt
system. For example, do not modify the seat
belt, add material, or install devices that
may change the seat belt routing or tension.
Doing so may affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modifying or tampering with
the seat belt system may result in serious
personal injury.
c Once a seat belt pretensioner has activated,
it cannot be reused and must be replaced
together with the retractor. See an INFINITI
retailer.
c Removal and installation of the pretensioner
system components should be done by an
INFINITI retailer.
