WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. 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 and upright in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the
seat belt properly. See “Precautions
on seat belt usage” (P.1-9).
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious accidents.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not
leave children, people who require the
assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve- hicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a sig-
nificant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.
. The seatback should not be reclined
further than necessary for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when
the passenger sits well back and
straight up in the seat. If the seat-
back is reclined, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and being injured is
increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or damages.
SEATS

FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips:
.The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds,
then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch for
a long period of time when the INFINITI
Direct Response Hybrid
®System is not
running. This will discharge the 12-volt
battery.
See “Automatic drive positioner” (P.3-30)
for the seat position memory function.
SSS1051
Forward and backward:
Moving the switch
forward or backward
will slide the seat forward or backward to
the desired position.
Reclining:
Move the recline switch
backward until
the desired angle is obtained. To bring the
seatback forward again, move the switch
forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of
the seatback for occupants of different sizes
for added comfort and to help obtain proper
seat belt fit. (See “Precautions on seat belt
usage” (P.1-9).) Also, the seatback can be
reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is parked.

or height of the seat.
SSS1053
Lumbar support (if so equipped):
The lumbar support feature provides lower
back support to the driver.

ARMREST
Rear armrest

WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints/head-
rests must be adjusted properly, as
specified in this section. Check the
adjustment after someone else uses the
seat. Do not attach anything to the head
restraint/headrest stalks or remove the
head restraint/headrest. Do not use the
seat if the head restraint/headrest has
been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint/
headrest before an occupant uses the
seating position. Failure to follow these
instructions can reduce the effectiveness
of the head restraints/headrests. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

The illustration shows the seating positions
equipped with head restraint/headrest.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a head restraint.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a headrest.
+ Indicates the seating position is not
equipped with a head restraint or headrest
(if applicable).
. Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be inte-
grated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
. Adjustable head restraints/headrests
have multiple notches along the stalk to
lock them in a desired adjustment posi-
tion. .
The non-adjustable head restraints/
headrests have a single locking notch to
secure them to the seat frame.
. Proper Adjustment:
— For the adjustable type, align the head restraint/headrest so the center of
your ear is approximately level with
the center of the head restraint/
headrest.
— If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place
the head restraint/headrest at the
highest position.
. If the head restraint/headrest has been
removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and
locked in place before riding in that
designated seating position.
