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
*A, 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.
WARNING
. After adjustment, release the adjustment
button and try to move the shoulder belt
anchor up and down to make sure it is
securely fixed in position.
. The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effec-
tiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of
injury in an accident.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fit the lap-
shoulder belt and fasten it, an extender
that is compatible with the installed seat
belts is available that can be purchased.
The extender adds approximately 8 in (200
mm) of length and may be used for either
the driver or front passenger seating
position. See an INFINITI retailer for assis-
tance with purchasing an extender if an
extender is required.
WARNING
.Only INFINITI seat belt extenders, made
by the same company which made the
original equipment seat belts, should be
used with the INFINITI seat belts.
. Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use could
result in serious personal injury in the
event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to install
child restraints. If the child restraint is
not secured properly, the child could be
seriously injured in a collision or a
sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
.To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution
recommended for cleaning upholstery
or carpets. Then, wipe with a cloth and
allow the seat belts to dry in the shade.
Do not allow the seat belts to retract
until they are completely dry.
. If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. 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.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.
CAUTION
To prevent theft or accidents, be sure to stop
the engine and lock the doors before
stepping away from the vehicle.

WARNING
.
Do not adjust the steering wheel while
driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and comfort.
The driver’s air bag inflates with great
force. If you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out of
position in any way, you are at greater
risk of injury or death in a crash. You
may also receive serious or fatal injuries
from the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back against
the seatback and as far away as practical
from the steering wheel. Always use the
seat belts.
TILT/TELESCOPIC STEERING

ELECTRIC OPERATION
Tilt or telescopic operation
Move the lever to adjust the steering wheel
up or down, forward or rearward to the
desired position.
Entry/Exit function operation:
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up auto-
matically when the driver’s door is opened
with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. This lets the driver get into and
out of the seat more easily.

The automatic drive positioner system has
four features:
.Entry/exit function
. Seat synchronization function
. Memory storage
. Setting memory function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automati-
cally move when the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to get
into and out of the driver’s seat more
easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and
the steering wheel will move up when the
driver’s door is opened with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions when the
ignition switch is pushed to the ACC
position.
The driver’s seat will not return to the
previous positions if the seat or steering
adjusting switch is operated when the seat
is at the exit position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion
The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory
switches (1 and 2) will blink once when
the function is canceled, and the indicator
lights will blink twice when the function is
activated. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to
a stored memory position. Keep the SET
switch pressed for more than 10 seconds
to turn on or off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the “Lift Steering
Wheel on Exit” key or“Slide Driver Seat
Back on Exit” key is turned to ON or OFF in
the “Comfort” settings. (See “Vehicle
information and settings” (P.4-10).)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the 12-volt battery cable is disconnected,
or if the fuse opens, the entry/exit function
will not work though this function was set
on before. In such a case, after connecting
the 12-volt battery or replacing with a new
fuse, open and close the driver’s door more
than two times after the ignition switch is
turned from the ON position to the LOCK
position. The entry/exit function will be
activated.

SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION
The seat synchronization function automa-
tically adjusts the positions of the steering
wheel and outside mirrors when the seat is
adjusted using the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside
mirrors will not move if the seat is adjusted
over the maximum thresholds. The system
considers that the steering wheel and
outside mirror adjustments are not neces-
sary because the seat may not be adjusted
for the driving position. Note that the
function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting.The seat synchronization function operates
under the following conditions:
.
The ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
. The shift lever is in the P (Park)
position.
If the outside mirrors or the steering wheel
reaches its maximum adjustment, the
function is automatically disabled. Restart
the function by selecting a previously
stored seat memory position using the
memory switches (1 or 2). An Intelligent
Key that was previously linked to the
stored seat memory can also be used to
restart the function.
If a seat position was not previously stored
in the seat memory, restart the function by
adjusting the steering wheel and outside
mirrors manually for your best driving
position and then drive the vehicle above
4 MPH (7 km/h).
Cancel or activate seat synchroni-
zation function
The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored
in the automatic drive positioner memory.
Follow these procedures to use the mem-
ory system.
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering col- umn and outside mirrors to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats”(P.1-2),“Tilt/tele-
scopic steering” (P.3-22) and“Outside
mirrors” (P.3-25).
3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1
or 2) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed
memory switch will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the
switch.
When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same
memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.

Linking Intelligent Key to a stored
memory position
The Intelligent Key can be linked to a
stored memory position with the following
procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memoryposition.
2. While the indicator light for the memory switch being set is illuminated for 5
seconds, push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. If the indicator light
blinks, the Intelligent Key is linked to
that memory setting.
Push the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion, and then push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. The driver’s seat, steering
wheel and outside mirrors will move to the
memorized position.
Confirming memory storage
. Push the ignition switch to the ON
position and push the SET switch. If
the main memory has not been stored,
the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 second. When the
memory has stored in position, the
indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds. .
If the 12-volt battery cable is discon-
nected, or if the fuse opens, the
memory will be canceled. In this case,
reset the desired position using the
previous procedure.
. If optional Intelligent Keys are added to
your vehicle, the memory storage pro-
cedure to switch 1 or 2 and linking
Intelligent Key procedure to a stored
memory position should be performed
again for each Intelligent Key. For
additional Intelligent Key information,
see “Keys” (P.3-2).
Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Use one of the following methods to move the driver’ s seat, the outside
