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.
The instructions in this section apply to booster
seat installation in the rear seats or the front
passenger seat.
Booster seat installation
CAUTION
Do not use the lap/shoulder belt in the
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode
when using a booster seat with the seat
belts.
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in the “Child safety,” “Child re-
straints” and “Booster seats” sections of this
manual before installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat in the
2nd or 3rd rows or in the front passenger seat: 1.
If you must install a booster seat in the
front seat, move the seat to the rear-
most position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a front-facing direction. Always
follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in-
structions. 3. The booster seat should be positioned on
the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head
restraint/headrest is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the
head restraint/headrest when the
booster seat is removed. For additional
information, refer to “Head
restraints/headrests” in this section for head
restraint/headrest adjustment, removal and
installation information.

Steps1. Adjust the seat as outlined in the “Seats” section of the Owner’s Manual. Sit upright,
leaning against the seat back, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet comfort-
ably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on the occu- pant’s lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the “Seat belts” section of the Owner’s Manual.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds al- lowing the system to classify the passenger
before the vehicle is put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the passenger air bag status light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification sys-
tem locks the classification during driving
so it is important that you confirm that the
passenger is properly classified prior to
driving. Also, the occupant classification
system may recalculate the weight of the
occupant when the vehicle comes to a stop
(i.e. stop light, stop sign etc.) , so front pas-
senger seat occupants should continue to
remain seated as outlined above. Troubleshooting
If you think the passenger air bag status light is
incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger seat:
This may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors: ● An object weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hang-
ing on the seat or placed in the seat-back
pocket.
● A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seat-back.
● A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the
back of the front passenger’s seat.
● The front seat or seat-back is forced back
against an object on the seat or floor behind
it.
● An object placed under the front passen-
ger’s seat.
● An object placed between the seat cushion
and center console or between door and
cushion.
If the vehicle is moving please come to a stop
when it is safe to do so. Check and correct any of
the above conditions. Restart the vehicle and
wait one minute. NOTE:
A system check will be performed during
which the passenger air bag status light
will remain lit for about 7 seconds initially.
If the light is still on after this, the vehicle should
be checked by an INFINITI retailer as soon as
possible.
2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying the front passenger seat:
● Occupant is a small adult →the air bag light
is functioning as intended. The front passen-
ger air bag is suppressed.
However, if the occupant is not a small adult, then
this may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors: ● Occupant is not sitting upright, leaning
against the seat back, and centered on the
seat cushion with feet comfortably extended
to the floor.
● A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seat-back.
● A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the
back of the front passenger’s seat.
● The front seat or seat-back is forced back
against an object on the seat or floor behind
it.

Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air bags
and pretensioners are designed to inflate on a
one-time-only basis. As a reminder, unless it is
damaged, the supplemental air bag warning light
remains illuminated after inflation has occurred.
Repair and replacement of these supplemental
air bag systems should be done only by an
INFINITI retailer.
When maintenance work is required on the ve-
hicle, the front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags, pretensioners and related parts should be
pointed out to the person performing the mainte-
nance. The ignition switch should always be in
the LOCK position when working under the hood
or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
●Once a front air bag, side air bag, or
curtain air bag has inflated, the air bag
module will not function again and
must be replaced. Additionally, the acti-
vated pretensioners must also be re-
placed. The air bag module and preten-
sioner should be replaced by an
INFINITI retailer. The air bag module
and pretensioner cannot be repaired. ●
The front air bag, side air bag, curtain
air bag systems and the pretensioner
system should be inspected by an
INFINITI retailer if there is any damage
to the front end or side portion of the
vehicle.
● If you need to dispose of a supplemen-
tal air bag or pretensioner or scrap the
vehicle, contact an INFINITI retailer. In-
correct disposal procedures could
cause personal injury.

warning light and the ABS warning light illumi-
nate, it may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the brake system checked, and if
necessary, repaired by an INFINITI retailer
promptly. Avoid high-speed driving and abrupt
braking. For additional information, refer to “Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS) warning light” in this
section.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not func-
tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check
