SMALL CHILDRENY51D-V-E01-C9C54803-16A9-4E13-B935-F06D6F606BF4Children that are over 1 year old and weigh
at least 20 lbs (9 kg) should remain in a
rear-facing child restraint as long as
possible up to the height or weight limit
of the child restraint. Children who outgrow
the height or weight limit of the rear-facing
child restraint and are at least 1 year old
should be secured in a forward-facing child
restraint with a harness. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for minimum
and maximum weight and height recom-
mendations. INFINITI recommends that
small children be placed in child restraints
that comply with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards or Canadian Motor Vehi-
cle Safety Standards. You should choose a
child restraint that fits your vehicle and
always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
LARGER CHILDRENY51D-V-E01-4359DFEB-B409-4DE8-BEF0-9BE3771E94B2Children should remain in a forward-facing
child restraint with a harness until they
reach the maximum height or weight limit
allowed by the child restraint manufac-
turer.
Once a child outgrows the height or weight
limit of the harness-equipped forward-facing child restraint, INFINITI recommends
that the child be placed in a commercially
available booster seat to obtain proper
seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly,
the booster seat should raise the child so
that the shoulder belt is properly posi-
tioned across the chest and the top,
middle portion of the shoulder. The
shoulder belt should not cross the neck
or face and should not fall off the shoulder.
The lap belt should lie snugly across the
lower hips or upper thighs, not the abdo-
men.
A booster seat can only be used in seating
positions that have a three-point type seat
belt. The booster seat should fit the vehicle
seat and have a label certifying that it
complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards or Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. Once the child has
grown so the shoulder belt is no longer
on or near the face and neck, and the lap
belt can be positioned properly across the
lower hips or upper thighs, use the seat
belt without the booster seat.
WARNING
Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat
and do not allow a child in the cargo area.
The child could be seriously injured or killed
in a sudden stop or collision.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RE-
STRAINTS
Y51D-V-E01-DF1C88B0-F8FE-4B02-B9A6-BB94E83BDF16
WARNING
. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use and installa-
tion of child restraints could result in
serious injury or death of a child or other
passengers in a sudden stop or collision:
—The child restraint must be used and
installed properly. Always follow all
of the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
—Infants and children should never beheld on anyone’s lap. Even the
strongest adult cannot resist the
forces of a collision.
—Do not put a seat belt around both achild and another passenger.
—INFINITI recommends that all childrestraints be installed in the rear
seat. Studies show that children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat. If you
must install a forward-facing child
restraint in the front seat, see “For-ward-facing child restraint installa-
tion using the seat belts”
(P.1-30).
—Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint in the front
seat. An inflating air bag could
seriously injure or kill a child. A
rear-facing child restraint must only
be used in the rear seat.
—Be sure to purchase a child restraint
that will fit the child and vehicle.
Some child restraints may not fit
properly in your vehicle.
—Child restraint anchor points aredesigned to withstand loads from
child restraints that are properly
fitted.
—Never use the anchor points foradult seat belts or harnesses.
—A child restraint with a top tetherstrap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.
—Keep seatbacks as upright as pos-sible after fitting the child restraint.
—Infants and children should alwaysbe placed in an appropriate child
restraint while in the vehicle.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Condition:

Black plate (41,1)
[ Edit: 2013/ 10/ 21 Model: Y51-D ]
.When the child restraint is not in use,
keep it secured with the LATCH system
or a seat belt. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose objects can injure occu-
pants or damage the vehicle.
CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can
become very hot. Check the seating surface
and buckles before placing a child in the
child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal
child restraint anchor system, referred to
as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren) system. Some child restraints
include rigid or webbing-mounted attach-
ments that can be connected to these
anchors.
For details, see “Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren System (LATCH)” (P.1-
21).
If you do not have a LATCH compatible
child restraint, the vehicle seat belts can
be used.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for infants and small children of various
sizes. When selecting any child restraint,
keep the following points in mind:
.
Choose only a restraint with a label
certifying that it complies with Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dard 213.
. Check the child restraint in your vehicle
to be sure it is compatible with the
vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with
your vehicle, place your child in the
child restraint and check the various
adjustments to be sure the child
restraint is compatible with your child.
Choose a child restraint that is de-
signed for your child’s height and
weight. Always follow all recommended
procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on forward-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use and installation of child
restraints could result in serious injury or
death of a child or other passengers in a
sudden stop or collision:
. Attach LATCH system compatible child
restraints only at the locations shown in
the illustration.
. Do not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using the
LATCH lower anchors. The child restraint
will not be secured properly.
. Inspect the lower anchors by inserting
your fingers into the lower anchor area.
Feel to make sure there are no obstruc-
tions over the anchors such as seat belt
webbing or seat cushion material. The
child restraint will not be secured
properly if the lower anchors are ob-
structed.
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used to attach adult seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed using
the damaged anchorage, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
