WARNING
.Every person who drives or rides in
this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times. Children should be properly
restrained in the rear seat and, if
appropriate, in a child restraint.
. 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 in-
crease the chance or severity of injury
in an accident. Serious injury or death
can occur if the seat belt is not worn
properly.
. Always route the shoulder belt over
your shoulder and across your chest.
Never run 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.
. 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.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper
buckle. .
Do not wear the seat belt inside out
or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one person to
use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the ve-
hicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light glows
continuously 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. It is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
. 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.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the
retractor. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. .
All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching hardware,
should be inspected after any colli-
sion. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
INFINITI recommends that all seat
belt assemblies in use during a colli-
sion be replaced unless the collision
was minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate
properly. Seat belt assemblies not in
use during a collision should also be
inspected and replaced if either da-
mage or improper operation is noted.
. All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected after
any collision. Always follow the re-
straint manufacturer’s inspection in-
structions and replacement
recommendations. The child re-
straints should be replaced if they
are damaged.

PREGNANT WOMEN
INFINITI recommends that pregnant women
use seat belts. The seat belt should be worn
snug, and always position the lap belt as low
as possible around the hips, not the waist,
and place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run
the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal
area. Contact your doctor for specific re-
commendations.
INJURED PERSONS
INFINITI recommends that injured persons
use seat belts, depending on the injury.
Check with your doctor for specific recom-
mendations.
PRE-CRASH SEAT BELTS WITH
COMFORT FUNCTION (front
seats) (if so equipped)
The pre-crash seat belt tightens the seat belt
with a motor to help restrain front seat
occupants. This helps reduce the risk of
injury in a collision.
The motor retracts the seat belt under the
following emergency conditions:
.During emergency braking
. During sudden steering maneuvers
. Activation of the Forward Emergency
Braking (FEB) system. (See “Forward Emergency Braking (FEB)” (P.5-101).)
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active
when:
. the seat belt is not fastened
. the vehicle speed is under 10 MPH (15
km/h) during emergency braking
. the vehicle speed is under 16 MPH (30
km/h) during sudden steering maneu-
vers.
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active
when the brake pedal is not depressed
except when sudden steering maneuvers
occur or the FEB system activates.
The motor also retracts the seat belt when
the seat belt is fastened or unfastened.
When the seat belt is fastened, the motor
tightens the seat belt for a snug fit. When
the seat belt is unfastened, the motor
retracts the seat belt. If the seat belt is not
fully retracted, the motor retracts the seat
belt when the door is opened.
Always wear your seat belt correctly and sit
upright and well back.
If the motor cannot retract the seat belt
when the seat belt is fastened or unfas-
tened, it may indicate the pre-crash seat belt
system has a malfunction. Have the system
checked and repaired. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
When the seat belt is retracted repeatedly in
Page 34 of 458

a short period of time, the motor may not be
able to retract the seat belt. After 30
seconds, the motor reactivates and retracts
the seat belt. If the seat belt still cannot be
retracted by the motor, the pre-crash seat
belt system has a malfunction. Have the
system checked and repaired. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WARNING
.Every person who drives or rides in
this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times.
. 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. .
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If
the seat belt becomes wrapped
around a child’s neck with the ALR
mode activated, the child can be
seriously injured or killed if the seat
belt retracts and becomes tight. This
can occur even if the vehicle is
parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to
release the child. If the seat belt can
not be unbuckled or is already un-
buckled, release the child by cutting
the seat belt with a suitable tool
(such as a knife or scissors) to release
the seat belt.SSS0292
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats” (P.1-2).)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the
retractor and insert the tongue into the
buckle until you hear and feel the latch
engage.
.The retractor is designed to lockduring a sudden stop or on impact.
A slow pulling motion permits the
belt to move, and allows you some
freedom of movement in the seat.
.If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its fully retracted position, firmly pull
the belt and release it. Then smoothly
pull the belt out of the retractor.

restrict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this
check, get the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service, or to learn more about seat belt
operation.

Center of rear seat
Selecting correct set of seat belts:
The center seat belt buckle is identified by
the CENTER mark
. The center seat belt
tongue can be fastened onlyinto the center
seat belt buckle.
SSS0294A
Shoulder belt height adjustment
(front seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. (See
“Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).)
To adjust, push the button
, and then move
the shoulder belt anchor to the desired
position, so that the belt passes over the
center of the shoulder. The belt should be
away from your face and neck, but not
falling off of your shoulder. Release the
adjustment button to lock the shoulder belt
anchor into position.

Top tether anchor point locations
Anchor points are located on the rear parcel
shelf.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap child restraint on the rear
seat, it is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
WARNING
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 equipment 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.

bined weight of the child and the child
restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg). If the
combined weight of the child and the child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg), use
the vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower an-
chors) to install the child restraint. Be sure to
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing
child restraint using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.

most effective 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 appropriate
child restraints and booster seats be prop-
erly installed in a rear seat. If this is not
possible, the occupant classification sensor
is designed to operate as described above to
turn the front passenger air bag OFF for
specified child restraints. Failing to properly
secure child restraints and to use the ALR
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 “Child restraints” (P.1-19)
for proper use and installation.)
If the front passenger seat is not occupied,
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 being de-
tected by the occupant classification 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 prop-
erly.Using the front passenger air bag status
light, you can monitor when the front
passenger 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
front passenger air bag status light is
illuminated (indicating that the air bag is
OFF), it could be that the person is a small
adult, or is not sitting on the seat properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the front
seat, the front passenger air bag status light
may or may not be illuminated, depending on
the size of the child and the type of child
restraint being used. If the front passenger
air bag status light is not illuminated (in-
dicating that the air bag might inflate in a
crash), it could be that the child restraint or
seat belt is not being used properly. Make
sure that the child restraint is installed
properly, the seat belt is used properly and
the occupant is positioned properly. If the
front passenger air bag status light is still not
illuminated, reposition the occupant or child
restraint in a rear seat.
If the front passenger air bag status light will
not illuminate even though you believe that
the child restraint, the seat belts and the
occupant are properly positioned, the sys-
tem may be sensing an unoccupied seat (in
which case the air bag is OFF). YourINFINITI retailer can check that the system
is OFF by using a special tool. However, until
you have confirmed with your retailer that
your air bag is working properly, reposition
the occupant or child restraint in a rear seat.
The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System and
front passenger air bag status light will take
a few seconds to register a change in the
passenger seat status. However, if the seat
becomes unoccupied, the front passenger air
bag status light will remain off.
If a malfunction occurs in the front passen-
ger air bag system, the supplemental air bag
warning light
, located in the meter and
gauges area will blink. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
Other supplemental front-impact
air bag precautions
WARNING
. Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel pad or on the instru-
ment panel. Also, do not place any
objects between any occupant and
the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause in-
jury if the front air bags inflate.
