Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, push the button on
the buckle and guide the seat belt as it auto-
matically retracts.
Checking seat belt operation
Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat
belt movement by two separate methods:
•When the belt is pulled quickly from the
retractor.
•When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat belts,
check the operation as follows:
•Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward
quickly. The retractor should lock and restrict
further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this check,
get the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service, or
to learn more about seat belt operation.Shoulder belt height adjustment (if
equipped)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position that is best for you.
(See Fastening the seat belts earlier in this
section).
•To adjust, push the button and then move
the shoulder belt anchor to the desired po-
sition 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 but-
ton to lock the shoulder belt anchor into
position.

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.

CAUTION
Remember that a child restraint left in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. Check the seat-
ing surface and buckles before placing your
child in a 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 attachments that can be con-
nected to these anchors.
For details, see LATCH (Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren) system in the1. Safety —
seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system section.
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 Ve-
hicle Safety Standard 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
designed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
•If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is less than 65 lb (29.5 kg), you may
use either the LATCH anchors or the seat belt
to install the child restraint (not both at the
same time).
•If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lb (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 manufac-
turer’s instructions for installation.
NOTE
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territo-
ries require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint at all
times while the vehicle is being operated. Cana-
dian law requires the top tether strap on front- facing child restraints to be secured to the des-
ignated anchor point on the vehicle.
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren) system
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with LATCH system com-
patible child restraints. This system may also
be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compat-
ible system. With this system, you do not have
to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the child
restraint unless the combined weight of the
child and child restraint exceeds 65 lb (29.5 kg).
If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lb (29.5 kg), use the
vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower anchors) to
install the child restraint. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
The LATCH anchor points are provided to install
child restraints in the rear outboard seating
positions only.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
for proper use and installation of child re-
straints could result in serious injury or death
