warning INFINITI QX60 2017 Owner's Manual

An INFINITI represents a new way of thinking
about vehicle design. It integrates advanced en-
gineering and superior craftsmanship with a
simple, refined aesthetic sensitivity associated
with traditional Japanese culture.
The result is a different notion of luxury and
beauty. The car itself is important, but so is the
sense of harmony that the vehicle evokes in its
driver, and the sense of satisfaction you feel with
the INFINITI — from the way it looks and drives to
the high level of retailer service.
To ensure that you enjoy an INFINITI to the fullest,
we encourage you to read this Owner’s Manual
immediately. It explains all of the features, con-
trols and performance characteristics of an
INFINITI; it also provides important instructions
and safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet
is included in your Owner’s literature port-
folio. The “Maintenance and schedules”
section of this manual explains details
about maintaining and servicing your ve-
hicle. Always carry it with you when you
take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer.
The Warranty Information Booklet con-
tents provide complete information about
all warranties covering this vehicle, the re-quirements to keep the warranties in effect
as well as the INFINITI Roadside Assis-
tance program.
Additionally, a separate Customer Care
and Lemon Law Information Booklet will
explain how to resolve any concerns you
may have with your vehicle, as well as
clarify your rights under your state’s lemon
law.
In addition to factory-installed options, your ve-
hicle may also be equipped with additional ac-
cessories installed prior to delivery. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
details concerning the particular accessories
with which your vehicle is equipped. It is impor-
tant that you familiarize yourself with all disclo-
sures, warnings, cautions and instructions con-
cerning proper use of such accessories prior to
operating the vehicle and/or accessory. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
details concerning the particular accessories
with which your vehicle is equipped.
Before driving your vehicle, please read this
Owner’s Manual carefully. This will ensure famil-
iarity with controls and maintenance require-
ments, assisting you in the safe operation of your
vehicle.

FOREWORD READ FIRST—THEN DRIVE SAFELY

For descriptions specified for all-wheel drive
models, anAWDmark is placed at the beginning
of the applicable sections/items.
As with other vehicles with features for
off-road use, failure to operate all-wheel
drive models correctly may result in loss of
control or an accident. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Driving safety precau-
tions” in the “Starting and driving” section
of this manual.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIV-
ING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver
differently from an ordinary passenger
car because it has a higher center of
gravity for off-road use. As with other
vehicles with features of this type, fail-
ure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or an accident.
For additional information, refer to “On-
pavement and off-road driving
precautions”, “Avoiding collision and
rollover” and “Driving safety precau-
tions” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.

This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification could affect its
performance, safety or durability and may
even violate governmental regulations. In
addition, damage or performance prob-
lems resulting from modifications may
not be covered under INFINITI warranties.
WARNING
Installing an aftermarket On-Board Diag-
nostic (OBD) plug-in device that uses the
port during normal driving, for example
remote insurance company monitoring,
remote vehicle diagnostics, telematics or
engine reprogramming, may cause inter-
ference or damage to vehicle systems. We
do not recommend or endorse the use of
any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices, un-
less specifically approved by INFINITI. The
vehicle warranty may not cover damage
caused by any aftermarket plug-in device. This manual includes information for all features
and equipment available on this model. Features
and equipment in your vehicle may vary depend-
ing on model, trim level, options selected, order,
date of production, region or availability. There-
fore, you may find information about features or
equipment that are not included or installed on
your vehicle.
All information, specifications and illustrations in
this manual are those in effect at the time of

nent suppliers without notice and without obliga-
tion. From time to time, INFINITI may update or

most accurate information currently available.

all revision updates sent to you by INFINITI to
ensure you have access to accurate and up-to-
date information regarding your vehicle. Current

WARNING
●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 properly. For
additional information, refer to “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” in this
section.
● After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked. ●
Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls or make the
vehicle move. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents.
● 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 assis-
tance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture 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 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 con-
trol of the vehicle.
● The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort. Seat
belts are most effective when the pas-
senger sits well back and straight up in
the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.

SEATS
1-2Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

The recline feature allows adjustment of the seat-
back for occupants of different sizes for added
comfort and to help obtain proper seat belt fit. For
additional information, refer to “Precautions on
seat belt usage” in this section. Also, the seat-
back can be reclined to allow occupants to rest
when the vehicle is stopped and the shift lever is
in P (Park) .
WARNING
●After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
● 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 and adjust the seat
belt properly. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Precautions on seat belt
usage” in this section.
One touch walk-in function
The 3rd row can be accessed from outside the
vehicle by using the seatback release lever lo-
cated on the upper outboard side of the seatback
on the 2nd row bench seat. If a child safety seat is
installed on the passenger’s side of the 2nd row
seat, the 3rd row can be accessed without re-
moving the child safety seat. Multi-mode
WARNING
When returning the seat to its original
position, confirm that the seat and seat-
back are locked properly.
CAUTION
●
Be careful not to pinch your hand or foot
or bump your head when operating the
walk-in seat.
● Do not drive with the 2nd row seat
tipped up.
● Be careful not to allow the 2nd row seat
to pinch, hit any part of your body or
other people when operating the 2nd
row seat. Make sure the seat path is
clear of all objects before moving the
seat.
To enter the 3rd row from outside the vehicle, lift
up on the seatback lever located on the upper
outboard side of the seatback on the 2nd row
bench seat. This will release the back of the seat
and fold up the seat cushion. This will also re-
lease the seat tracks so you will be able to slide
the seat forward or backward.
Slide the entire seat forward for access to the 3rd
row.
