WARNING
• Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder 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 or chime continues while the
ignition is turned on with all doors closed
and all seat belts fastened, it may indi-
cate 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
system may result in serious personal
injury.
• Once the seat belt pretensioner(s) have
activated, they cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the re-
tractor. 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.

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
AND CHIME
Both the driver's and passenger's front seats
are equipped with a seat belt warning light
and chime. The warning light, located on the
instrument panel, will show the status of the
driver and passenger seat belt.
NOTE:
The front passenger seat belt warning light
will not light up if the seat is not occupied.
The 2nd and 3rd row seats may also be
equipped with a seat belt reminder.For additional information, see “Warning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders”
(P. 2-12).
PREGNANT WOMEN
INFINITI recommends that pregnant women
use seat belts. The seat belt should be worn
snug and always position the lap belt as low as
possible around the hips, not the waist. Place
the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across
your chest. Never run the lap/shoulder belt
over your abdominal area. Contact your doctor
for specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
INFINITI recommends that injured persons
use seat belts. Check with your doctor for
specific recommendations.
PRE-CRASH SEAT BELTS WITH
COMFORT FUNCTION (front
seats) (if so equipped)
The pre-crash seat belt tightens the seat belt
with a motor to help restrain front seat occu-
pants. This helps reduce the risk of injury in a
collision.
The motor retracts the seat belt under the
following emergency conditions:
• During emergency braking.
• During sudden steering maneuvers.
• Activation of the Forward Emergency
Braking (FEB) with Pedestrian Detection
system (if so equipped). For additional in-
formation, see “Forward Emergency Brak-
ing (FEB) with Pedestrian Detection sys-
tem” (P. 5-128).
• In the event of certain types of rollover collisions.
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active
when:
• The seat belt is not fastened.
•
The vehicle speed is under 10 mph (15 km/h)
during emergency braking.
•The vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h)
during sudden steering maneuvers.
The pre-crash seat belt will not be active
when the brake pedal is not depressed except
when sudden steering maneuvers occur and
the Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) with
Pedestrian Detection system (if so equipped)
activates.

2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retrac-tor and insert the tongue into the buckle
OAuntil you hear and feel the latch
engage.
• The retractor is designed to lock during
a sudden stop or on impact. A slow pull-
ing motion permits the seat belt to
move and allows you some freedom of
movement in the seat.
• If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its
fully retracted position, firmly pull the
belt and release it. Then smoothly pull
the belt out of the retractor. 3. Position the lap belt portion
low and snug
on the hipsOBas shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack
OC. Be sure
the shoulder belt is routed over your
shoulder and across your chest.
The front passenger seat and the rear seating
positions three-point seat belts have two
modes of operation:
• Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
• Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) The ELR mode allows the seat belt to extend
and retract to allow the driver and passen-
gers some freedom of movement in the seat.
The ELR locks the seat belt when the vehicle
slows down rapidly or during certain impacts.
The ALR mode (child restraint mode) locks
the seat belt for child restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated, the seat
belt cannot be extended again until the seat
belt tongue is detached from the buckle and
fully retracted. The seat belt returns to the
ELR mode after the seat belt fully retracts.
For additional information, see “Child re-
straints” (P. 1-28).
The ALR mode should be used only for child
restraint installation. During normal seat
belt use by an occupant, the ALR mode
should not be activated. If it is activated, it
may cause uncomfortable seat belt tension.
It can also change the operation of the front
passenger air bag. For additional informa-
tion, see “Front passenger air bag and status
light” (P. 1-65).

WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used to attach
adult seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The child re-
straint will not be properly installed using
the damaged anchorage, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) must be used
when installing a child restraint. Failure to
use the ALR mode will result in the child
restraint not being properly secured. The
restraint could tip over or be loose and
cause injury to a child in a sudden stop or
collision. Also, it can change the operation
of the front passenger air bag. For addi-
tional information, see “Front passenger
air bag and status light” (P. 1-65).

(P. 1-65).
PRECAUTIONS ON SRS
This SRS section contains important infor-
mation concerning the following systems:
• Driver and front passenger supplemental front-impact air bag (INFINITI Advanced
Air Bag System)
• Front seat-mounted side-impact supple- mental air bag
• 2nd row outboard seat-mounted side- impact supplemental air bag
• Front central seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bag (if so equipped)
• Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air bag
• Driver and front passenger supplemental knee air bag
• Seat belt with pretensioner(s) (front and 2nd row outboard seats)
Supplemental front-impact air bag system
The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System can
help cushion the impact force to the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger in
certain frontal collisions.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
1-54Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the chest area of the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact collisions.
The side air bags are designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
2nd row outboard seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the chest area of the 2nd row out-
board seat passengers in certain side-impact
collisions. The side air bags are designed to
inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Front central seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag (if so equipped)
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the head area of the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact and rollover
collisions. In a side-impact, this air bag is de-
signed to inflate during a vehicle impact from
either side.Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the head of occupants in front and
rear outboard seating positions in certain
side-impact or rollover collisions. In a side
impact, the curtain air bags are designed to
inflate on the side where the vehicle is im-
pacted. In a rollover, both curtain air bags are
designed to inflate and remain inflated for a
short time.
Driver and front passenger supplemental
knee air bags
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the driver’s and front passenger’s
knees in certain collisions.
The SRS is designed to
supplementthe crash
protection provided by the seat belts and is
not a substitute for them. Seat belts should
always be correctly worn and the occupant
seated a suitable distance away from the
steering wheel, instrument panel and door
finishers. For additional information, see
“Seat belts” (P. 1-17). The supplemental 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.
Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-55

WARNING
• The front air bags ordinarily will not in-
flate in the event of a side impact, rear
impact, rollover, or lower severity fron-
tal collision. Always wear your seat belts
to help reduce the risk or severity of in-
jury in various kinds of accidents.
• The front passenger air bag and front
passenger supplemental knee air bag will
not inflate if the passenger air bag status
light is lit. For additional information,
see “Front passenger air bag and status
light” (P. 1-65). •
The seat belts and the front air bags are
most effective when you are sitting well
back and upright in the seat. The front air
bags inflate with great force. Even with
the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System,
if you are unrestrained, leaning forward,
sitting sideways or out of position in any
way, you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also receive
serious or fatal injuries from the front air
bag if you are up against it when it in-
flates. Always sit back against the seat-
back and as far away as practical from
the steering wheel or instrument panel.
Always properly use the seat belts. •
The driver and front passenger seat belt
buckles are equipped with sensors that
detect if the seat belts are fastened. The
INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System
monitors the severity of a collision and
seat belt usage then inflates the air bags
as needed. Failure to properly wear seat
belts can increase the risk or severity of
injury in an accident.
• The front passenger seat is equipped
with an occupant classification sensor
(weight sensor) that turns the front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag OFF under
some conditions. This sensor is only used
in this seat. Failure to be properly seated
and wearing the seat belt can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an acci-
dent. For additional information, see
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” (P. 1-65).
• Keep hands on the outside of the steer-
ing wheel. Placing them inside the steer-
ing wheel rim could increase the risk that
they are injured when the front air bag
inflates.

WARNING
To ensure proper operation of the passen-
ger’s INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System,
please observe the following items.
• Do not allow a passenger in the rear seat
to push or pull on the seatback pocket.
• Do not place heavy loads heavier than
9.1 lbs. (4 kg) on the seatback, head
restraint/headrest or in the seatback
pocket.
• Make sure that there is nothing pressing
against the rear of the seatback, such as
a child restraint installed in the rear seat
or an object stored on the floor.
• Make sure that there is no object placed
under the front passenger seat.
• Make sure that there is no object placed
between the seat cushion and the center
console or between the seat cushion and
the door. •
If a forward-facing child restraint is in-
stalled in the front passenger seat, do
not position the front passenger seat so
the child restraint contacts the instru-
ment panel. If the child restraint does
contact the instrument panel, the sys-
tem may determine the seat is occupied
and the front passenger air bag and front
passenger supplemental knee air bag
may deploy in a collision. Also the front
passenger air bag status light may not
illuminate. For additional information,
see “Child restraints” (P. 1-28).
• Confirm the operating condition with
the front passenger air bag status light.
• If you notice that the front passenger air
bag status light is not operating as de-
scribed in this section, get the occupant
classification system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
• Until you have confirmed with a retailer
that your passenger seat occupant clas-
sification system is working properly,
position the occupants in the rear seat-
ing positions. •
Do not position the front passenger seat
so it contacts the rear seat. If the front
seat does contact the rear seat, the air
bag system may determine a sensor mal-
function has occurred and the front pas-
senger air bag status light may illuminate
and the supplemental air bag warning
light may flash.
This vehicle is equipped with the INFINITI
Advanced Air Bag System for the driver and
front passenger seats. This system is de-
signed to meet certification requirements un-
der U.S. regulations. It is also permitted in
Canada. All of the information, cautions and
warnings in this manual still apply and must
be followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air bag
is located in the center of the steering wheel.
The front passenger supplemental front-
impact air bag is mounted in the dashboard
above the glove box. The front air bags are
designed to inflate in higher severity frontal
collisions, although they may inflate if the
forces in another type of collision are similar
to those of a higher severity frontal impact.
They may not inflate in certain frontal colli-
sions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not
always an indication of proper front air bag
system operation.
