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.

Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-7

WARNING
∙ Every person who drives or rides in thisvehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be in the rear seats and in
an appropriate restraint.
WARNING
∙ The seat belt should be properly adjustedto a snug fit. Failure to do so may reduce
the effectiveness of the entire restraint
system and increase the chance or sever-
ity of injury in an accident. Serious injury
or death can occur if the seat belt is not
worn properly.
SSS0134SSS0016
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-17

WARNING
∙ Always route the shoulder belt over yourshoulder and across your chest. Never
put the belt behind your back, under your
arm or across your neck. The belt should
be away from your face and neck, but not
falling off your shoulder.
∙ Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE
WAIST. A lap belt worn too high could
increase the risk of internal injuries in an
accident. ∙ Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely
fastened to the proper buckle.
∙ Do not wear the seat belt inside out or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
∙ Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
∙ Never carry more people in the vehicle than there are seat belts.
∙ If the seat belt warning light glows con- tinuously while the ignition is turned ON
with all doors closed and all seat belts
fastened, it may indicate a malfunction in
the system. Have the system checked. It
is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
∙ No changes should be made to the seat belt system. For example, do not modify
the seat belt, add material, or install de-
vices that may change the seat belt rout-
ing or tension. Doing so may affect the
operation of the seat belt system. Modi-
fying or tampering with the seat belt sys-
tem may result in serious personal injury. ∙ Once seat belt pretensioner(s) have acti-
vated, they cannot be reused and must be
replaced together with the retractor. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
∙ All seat belt assemblies, including retrac- tors and attaching hardware, should be
inspected after any collision. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. INFINITI recom-
mends that all seat belt assemblies in use
during a collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate prop-
erly. Seat belt assemblies not in use dur-
ing a collision should also be inspected
and replaced if either damage or im-
proper operation is noted.
∙ All child restraints and attaching hard- ware should be inspected after any colli-
sion. Always follow the restraint manu-
facturer’s inspection instructions and
replacement recommendations. The child
restraints should be replaced if they are
damaged.

1-18Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
The driver’s front seat is equipped with a seat
belt warning light.
The warning light, located on the instrument
panel, will show the status of the driver’s seat
belt.
For additional information, refer to “Warning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders”
in the “Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.
CHILD SAFETY
WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the seat
belts. Most seating positions are equipped
with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode seat belts. If the seat belt becomes
wrapped around a child’s neck with the ALR
mode activated, the child can be seriously
injured or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if the
vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to
release the child. If the seat belt cannot be
unbuckled or is already unbuckled, release
the child by cutting the seat belt with a
suitable tool (such as a knife or scissors) to
release the seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in this
manual, child safety information is available
from many other sources, including doctors,
teachers, government traffic safety offices,
and community organizations. Every child is
different, so be sure to learn the best way to
transport your child. There are three basic types of child restraint
systems:
∙ Rear-facing child restraint
∙ Front-facing child restraint
∙ Booster seat
The proper restraint depends on the child’s
size. Generally, infants up to about 1 year old
and less than 9 kg (20 lbs.) should be placed in
rear-facing child restraints. Front-facing
child restraints are available for children who
outgrow rear-facing child restraints and are
at least 1 year old. Booster seats are used to
help position a vehicle lap/shoulder belt on a
child who can no longer use a front-facing
child restraint.
WARNING
Infants and children need special protec-
tion. The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit
them properly. The shoulder belt may come
too close to the face or neck. The lap belt
may not fit over their small hip bones. In an
accident, an improperly fitting seat belt
could cause serious or fatal injury. Always
use appropriate child restraints.
