ESP INFINITI QX80 2014 Owner's Manual

.Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback 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 in the
seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” later in this
section.

Power folding
Push and hold the front side of the switch
*1located on the passenger side of the
cargo room. The corresponding seatback
(R: right side, L: left side) will be folded
down automatically. Push and hold the rear side of the switch
*2. The seatback will be returned auto-
matically. The seatback will rise up while

CAUTION
When operating the rear power seatback
return, make sure that the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission is in the P
(Park) position.
WARNING
. Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the rear seat when it is in the
fold-down position. Use of these areas
by passengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an
accident or sudden stop.
. When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched posi-

3. Fold the 3rd row seat flat using theswitches located in the cargo area. See
“Power folding ”earlier in this section.
4. Return 3rd row seats to seating posi- tions by raising the 3rd row seatbacks
to an upright position using the
switches. Make sure the seatback is
locked in position. See “Power folding”
earlier in this section.
5. Return the 2nd row seat to a seating position by raising the 2nd row seat-
backs to an upright position. Make sure
the seatback is locked in position.

Booster seats are used to help position a
vehicle lap/shoulder belt on a child who
can no longer use a forward-facing child
restraint.
WARNING
Infants and children need special protection.
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.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved
child restraints for infants and small
children. See“Child restraints” later in
this section.
A child restraint may be secured in the
vehicle by using either the LATCH (Lower
Anchor and Tethers for CHildren) system or
with the vehicle seat belt. See “Child
restraints” later in this section for more
information. INFINITI recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear seat.
Studies show that children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat.
This is especially important because your
vehicle has a supplemental restraint sys-
tem (Air bag system) for the front passen-
ger. See
“Supplemental restraint system ”
later in this section.
INFANTS
Infants up to at least 1 year old should be
placed in a rear-facing child restraint.
INFINITI recommends that infants be placed
in child restraints that comply with Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Cana-
dian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You
should choose a child restraint that fits
your vehicle and always follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and
use.
SMALL CHILDREN
Children that are over 1 year old and weigh
at least 20 lbs (9 kg) should remain in a
rear-facing child restraint as long as
possible up to the height or weight limit
of the child restraint. Children who outgrow
the height or weight limit of the rear-facing child restraint and are at least 1 year old
should be secured in a forward-facing child
restraint with a harness. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for minimum
and maximum weight and height recom-
mendations. INFINITI recommends that
small children be placed in child restraints
that comply with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards or Canadian Motor Vehi-
cle Safety Standards. You should choose a
child restraint that fits your vehicle and
always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation and use.
LARGER CHILDREN
Children should remain in a forward-facing
child restraint with a harness until they
reach the maximum height or weight limit
allowed by the child restraint manufac-
turer.
Once a child outgrows the height or weight
limit of the harness-equipped forward-
facing child restraint, INFINITI recommends
that the child be placed in a commercially
available booster seat to obtain proper
seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly,
the booster seat should raise the child so
that the shoulder belt is properly posi-
tioned across the chest and the top,
middle portion of the shoulder. The

WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-
impact and rollover supplemental air bags:
.The side-impact supplemental air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of
a front impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity side collision. Always
wear your seat belts to help reduce the
risk or severity of injury in various kinds
of accidents.
. The curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a front impact,
rear impact, or lower severity side
collision. Always wear your seat belts
to help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of accidents.
. The seat belts, the side air bags and
curtain and rollover air bags are most
effective when you are sitting well back
and upright in the seat. The side air bags
and curtain and rollover air bags inflate
with great force. Do not allow anyone to
place their hand, leg or face near the
side air bags on the side of the seatback
of the front seat or near the side roof
rails. Do not allow anyone sitting in the
front seats or rear outboard seats to
extend their hand out of the window or
lean against the door. Some examples of
dangerous riding positions are shown in
the previous illustrations.
. When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front seat.
If the side air bags inflates, you may be
seriously injured. Be especially careful
with children, who should always be
properly restrained. Some examples of
dangerous riding positions are shown in
the illustrations.

ROOF RACK
Always distribute the luggage evenly on
the roof rack. Do not load more than 221 lb
(100 kg) on the roof rails. Observe the
maximum load limit shown on the cross-
bars or roof carriers when you attach them
on the roof rails. Contact an INFINITI
retailer for crossbar or other equipment
information.
Be careful that your vehicle does not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR front and rear). The GVWR and
GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.
M.S.S. certification label (located on thedriver’s door pillar). For more information
regarding GVWR and GAWR, see “Vehicle
loading information” in the“9. Technical
and consumer information” section.
WARNING
.Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying
capacity, especially if the significant
portion of that load is carried on the
roof rack.
. Heavy loading of the roof rack has the
potential to affect the vehicle stability
and handling during sudden or unusual
handling maneuvers.
. Roof rack load should be evenly dis-
tributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof rack load
weight capacity.
. Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause personal
injury.
