Control arm INFINITI QX60 2018 Owner's Manual

An INFINITI represents a new way of think-
ing about vehicle design. It integrates ad-
vanced engineering and superior craftsman-
ship with a simple, refined aesthetic
sensitivity associated with traditional Japa-
nese 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 Own-
er’s Manual immediately. It explains all of the
features, controls and performance charac-
teristics of an INFINITI; it also provides im-
portant instructions and safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet is
included in your Owner’s literature portfo-
lio. The “Maintenance and schedules” sec-
tion of this manual explains details about
maintaining and servicing your vehicle. Al-
ways carry it with you when you take your
vehicle to an INFINITI retailer. The War-
ranty Information Booklet contents provide
complete information about all warranties
covering this vehicle, the requirements tokeep the warranties in effect as well as the
INFINITI Roadside Assistance 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
vehicle may also be equipped with additional
accessories installed prior to delivery. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for details concerning the particular ac-
cessories with which your vehicle is equipped.
It is important that you familiarize yourself
with all disclosures, warnings, cautions and
instructions concerning proper use of such
accessories prior to operating the vehicle
and/or accessory. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for details con-
cerning the particular accessories with which
your vehicle is equipped.
Before driving your vehicle, please read this
Owner’s Manual carefully. This will ensure
familiarity with controls and maintenance re-
quirements, assisting you in the safe opera-
tion of your vehicle.
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
REMINDERS!
Follow these important driving rules to help
ensure a safe and comfortable trip for you
and your passengers!
∙ NEVER drive under the influence of alco-
hol or drugs.
∙ ALWAYS observe posted speed limits and never drive too fast for conditions.
∙
ALWAYS give your full attention to driv-
ing and avoid using vehicle features or tak-
ing other actions that could distract you.
∙ ALWAYS use your seat belts and appro- priate child restraint systems. Pre-teen
children should be seated in the rear seat.
∙ ALWAYS provide information about the proper use of vehicle safety features to
all occupants of the vehicle.
∙ ALWAYS review this Owner’s Manual for important safety information.
FOREWORD READ FIRST—THEN DRIVE SAFELY

WARNING
∙ Do not ride in a moving vehicle when theseatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. 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 “Precautions 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 acti-
vate switches or controls or make the ve-
hicle move. Unattended children could
become involved in serious accidents. ∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle 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 driv- ing so full attention may be given to ve-
hicle operation. The seat may move sud-
denly and could cause loss of control of
the vehicle.
∙ 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 seatback is reclined, the risk of slid-
ing under the lap belt and being injured is
increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure
not to contact any moving parts to avoid
possible injuries and/or damage.

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

The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System
monitors information from the crash zone
sensor, the Air bag Control Unit (ACU), seat
belt buckle sensor and occupant classifica-
tion sensor (weight sensor). Inflator opera-
tion is based on the severity of a collision and
seat belt usage for the driver. For the front
passenger, the occupant classification sensor
is also monitored. Based on information from
the sensor, only one front air bag may inflate
in a crash, depending on the crash severity
and whether the front occupants are belted
or unbelted. Additionally, the front passenger
air bag may be automatically turned off un-
der some conditions, depending on the
weight detected on the passenger seat and
how the seat belt is used. If the front passen-
ger air bag is OFF, the front passenger air
bag status light will be illuminated. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Front passenger
air bag and status light” in this section. One
front air bag inflating does not indicate im-
proper performance of the system.
If you have any questions about your air bag
system, it is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer to obtain information about
the system. If you are considering modifica-
tion of your vehicle due to a disability, you
may also contact INFINITI. Contact informa-
tion is contained in the front of this Owner’s
Manual.When a front air bag inflates, a fairly loud
noise may be heard, followed by the release
of smoke. This smoke is not harmful and does
not indicate a fire. Care should be taken to
not inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breathing
condition should get fresh air promptly.
Front air bags, along with the use of seat
belts, help to cushion the impact force on the
face and chest of the front occupants. They
can help save lives and reduce serious injuries.
However, an inflating front air bag may cause
facial abrasions or other injuries. Front air
bags do not provide restraint to the lower
body.
Even with INFINITI Advanced Air Bags, seat
belts should be correctly worn and the driver
and passenger seated upright as far as prac-
tical away from the steering wheel or instru-
ment panel. The front air bags inflate quickly
in order to help protect the front occupants.
Because of this, the force of the front air bag
inflating can increase the risk of injury if the
occupant is too close to, or is against, the
front air bag module during inflation.
The front air bags deflate quickly after a col-
lision.
The front air bags operate only when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational.

SECURITY SYSTEMS
2-32Instruments and controls

The system helps deter vehicle theft but can-
not prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of
interior or exterior vehicle components in all
situations. Always secure your vehicle even if
parking for a brief period. Never leave your
Intelligent Key in the vehicle, and always lock
the vehicle when unattended. Be aware of
your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit
areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification
markers, and tracking systems, are available
at auto supply stores and specialty shops. An
INFINITI retailer may also offer such equip-
ment. Check with your insurance company to
see if you may be eligible for discounts for
various theft protection features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows and the moonroof.The system can be armed even if the
windows and moonroof are open.
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the ve- hicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock
all doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch or power door lock switch.
Key fob operation:
4. Confirm that the
indicator light
comes on. The
indicator stays illu-
minated for a period of time indicating
that the system is in the pre-armed
phase.
The
indicator light will blink every
3 seconds once the security system is
armed.
If during the pre-armed phase one of the
following occurs, the system will not
arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the me- chanical key
∙ A door is opened with the release but- ton with the Intelligent Key on your
person
∙ The doors are unlocked using the un- lock button on the Intelligent Key
∙ The ignition switch is placed in the ACC or ON position ∙
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate when all the doors, hood and lift-
gate are locked with the ignition switch
placed in the LOCK position. When plac-
ing the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position, the system will be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the fol-
lowing alarm:
∙ The turn signals blink and the horn sounds intermittently.
∙ The alarm automatically turns off after a period of time. However, the alarm reac-
tivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by un-
locking the driver’s door or liftgate with
the key, or by pressing the
button
on the Intelligent Key.
The alarm is activated by:
∙ opening the door or liftgate without us- ing the key or Intelligent Key (even if the
door is unlocked by releasing the door
inside lock switch).
Instruments and controls2-33

How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s
door or the liftgate with the key, pressing
the
button on the Intelligent Key, or
pressing the request switch on the driver’s or
passenger’s door with the Intelligent Key in
range of the door handle.
INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System will
not allow the engine to start without the use
of a registered INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer
System key.
If the engine fails to start using a registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System key (for
example, when interference is caused by an-
other INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key, an automated toll road device or auto-
matic payment device on the key ring), restart
the engine using the following procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON po- sition for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately
10 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2. 4. Restart the engine while holding the de-
vice (which may have caused the inter-
ference) separate from the registered
INFINITI Vehicle Immobilizer System
key.
If the no start condition re-occurs, INFINITI
recommends placing the registered INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System key on a separate
key ring to avoid interference from other de-
vices.
