driver seat adjustment INFINITI QX30 2017 Owner's Manual

WARNING
•The seatback should not be reclined any
more than needed 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 un-
der the lap belt and being injured is in-
creased.
•For the most effective protection when the
vehicle is in motion, the seat should be up-
right. Always sit well back and upright in the
seat with both feet on the floor and adjust
the seat properly. (SeeSeat beltslater in
this section.)
•After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to
make sure it is securely locked.
•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 unattended in your vehicle. Addition-
ally, the temperature inside a closed vehicle
on a warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of injury
or death to people and pets.
•Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
•Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving
so full attention may be given to vehicle
operation. The seat may move suddenly and
could cause loss of control of the vehicle.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not
to contact any moving parts to avoid possible
injuries and/or damage.

WARNING
•After adjustment, release the adjustment
button and then try to move the shoulder
belt down to make sure that it is securely
fixed in position.
•The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position that is best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effective-
ness of the entire restraint system and in-
crease 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 compat-
ible 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. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for assistance 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 stan-
dard seat belt should not use an extender.
Such unnecessary use could result in seri-
ous personal injury in the event of an acci-
dent.
•Never use seat belt extenders to install
child restraints. If the child restraint is not
secured properly, the child could be seri-
ously 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 belts may
retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide
with a clean, dry cloth.
•Periodically check to see that the seat belt
and the metal components, such as buckles,
tongues, retractors, flexible wires and an-
chors, work properly. If loose parts, deterio-
ration, cuts or other damage on the webbing
is found, the entire seat belt assembly
should be replaced.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-17

•If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS may
not operate correctly.
•Be sure to install the specified size of tires
to all four wheels correctly.
Malfunction Indicator light (MIL)
(yellow)
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the yellow Malfunction Indicator light
illuminates. This means that the system is
operational.
If the yellow engine malfunction indicator light
lights up while the engine is running, there may
be a fault, for example:
•In the engine management
•In the fuel injection system
•In the exhaust system
•In the ignition system (for vehicles with
gasoline engines)
•In the fuel system
•In other monitored items, for example the
automatic transmission.The emission limit values may be exceeded and
the engine may be running in emergency mode.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without having
the engine control system checked and re-
paired as necessary could lead to poor drive-
ability, reduced fuel economy and possible
damage to the engine control system.
Incorrect setting of the engine control system
may lead to non-compliance of local and na-
tional emission laws and regulations.
Have the vehicle checked as soon as possible. It
is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
Distance warning light (if
equipped)
This light illuminates if the distance to the
vehicle in front is too small for the speed
selected.
If a warning tone also sounds, you are ap-
proaching a vehicle or stationary obstacle in
your line of travel at too high a speed. For
additional information see Forward emergency
braking (FEB) system (if equipped) in the
5. Starting and driving section.
Electric parking brake
warning light
The red indicator illuminates when the electric
parking brake is engaged.
If the red indicator light for the electric parking
brake flashes or is lit and/or the yellow warning
light for the electric parking brake is lit, observe
the additional messages displayed in the ve-
hicle information display.
For further parking brake operation information
seeParking brake in the3. Pre-driving checks
and adjustments section.
Seat belt (driver and front
passenger) warning light
The seat belt warning light reminds you to
fasten your seat belts. The light illuminates if
the engine is started, all doors are closed and
the driver’s and/or front passenger’s seat belt
is unfastened. It will remain illuminated until
the driver and/or front passenger fastens their
seat belt. A chime will sound once the vehicle is
in motion, seeSeat belt reminder chime later
in this section. See Seat beltsin the1. Safety
— seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system section for precautions on seat belt
usage.
Instruments and controls2-11

•Do not fill a portable fuel container in the
vehicle or trailer. Static electricity can cause
an explosion of flammable liquid, vapor or
gas in any vehicle or trailer. To reduce the
risk of serious injury or death when filling
portable fuel containers:– Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when fill-
ing.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the
container while you are filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel contain-
ers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
•Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your vehicle.
For additional information, refer to Fuel
Recommendation in theTechnical and
consumer information section of this
manual.
•If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it
away with water to avoid paint damage.
WARNING
•Do not adjust the steering wheel while driv-
ing. 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 unre-
strained, 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 seat-
back and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat belts. Release the lock lever
1as illustrated and
adjust the steering wheel to the desired posi-
tion (up or down
2, forwards or backwards
3). Firmly push the lock lever back into posi-
tion to lock the steering wheel in place.
