3RD ROW SEATS
The 3rd row power folding seat controls are
located behind the 2nd row seat (both the
driver’s and passenger’s side) on the 3rd
row cup holder console
*1. There are also
controls located on the rear quarter trim
panel behind the 3rd row seats (passen-
ger’s side)
*2.
Before operating the 3rd row seats:
. Make sure the 2nd row seatback is not
reclined.
. Lower the 3rd row head restraint to the
full down position. .
Disconnect and secure the center seat
belt and tongues into the retractor
base. See “3rd row center seat belt”
later in this section.
— Always reconnect the center seat
belt when the seat is returned to the
upright position
. Make sure that there are no objects on
the seatback cushion.
SSS1095
Power reclining
Push and hold the rear side of the switch
*1beside the 3rd row cup holders until
the desired seatback angle (up to 20
degrees) is obtained. To move the seatback
forward again, push and hold the front side
of the switch

SSS0896
Shoulder belt height adjustment
(for front seats and 2nd row seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. (See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”earlier in
this section.)
To adjust, push the button
*A, and then
move the shoulder belt anchor to the
desired position, so that the belt passes
over the center of the shoulder. The belt
should be away from your face and neck,
but not falling off of your shoulder. Release
the adjustment button to lock the shoulder
belt anchor into position.
WARNING
. After adjustment, release the adjustment
button and try to move the shoulder belt
anchor up and down to make sure it is
securely fixed in position.
. The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effec-
tiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of
injury in an accident.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fit the lap-
shoulder belt and fasten it, an extender
that is compatible with the installed seat
belts is available that can be purchased.
The extender adds approximately 8 in (200
mm) of length and may be used for either
the driver or front passenger seating
position. See an INFINITI retailer for assis-
tance with purchasing an extender if an
extender is required.
WARNING
.Only INFINITI seat belt extenders, made
by the same company which made the
original equipment seat belts, should be
used with the INFINITI seat belts.
. Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use could
result in serious personal injury in the
event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to install
child restraints. If the child restraint is
not secured properly, the child could be
seriously injured in a collision or a
sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
.To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution
recommended for cleaning upholstery
or carpets. Then, wipe with a cloth and
allow the seat belts to dry in the shade.
Do not allow the seat belts to retract
until they are completely dry.
. If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat

CAUTION
Always carry the mechanical key installed in
the Intelligent Key.
VALET HAND-OFF
When you have to leave a key with a valet,
give them the Intelligent Key itself and
keep the mechanical key with you to
protect your belongings.
To prevent the glove box from being
opened during valet hand-off, follow the
procedures below.
1. Remove the mechanical key from theIntelligent Key.
2. Lock the glove box with the mechanical key.
3. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet, keeping the mechanical key in your
pocket or bag for insertion into the
Intelligent Key when you retrieve your
vehicle.
See “Storage” in the“2. Instruments and
controls” section.
WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally opening
the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.

ing the fuel cap.WARNING
. Do not adjust the steering wheel while
driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and comfort.
The driver’s air bag inflates with great
force. 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 air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back against
the seatback and as far away as practical
from the steering wheel. Always use the
seat belts.

ELECTRIC OPERATION
Tilt or telescopic operation
Move the lever*1to adjust the steering
wheel up or down, forward or rearward to
the desired position.
Entry/Exit function operation:
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up auto-
matically when the driver’s door is opened
with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. This lets the driver get into and
out of the seat more easily.
For more information, see “Automatic drive
TILT/TELESCOPIC STEERING

SPA2756
SET/memory switches
The automatic drive positioner system has
three features:
. Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
. Setting memory function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automati-
cally move when the automatic transmis-
sion shift lever is in the P (Park) position.
This allows the driver to get into and out of
the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the steering wheel will move up when the
driver’s door is opened with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions when the
ignition switch is pushed to the ACC
position.
The driver’s seat will not return to the
previous positions if the seat or steering
adjusting switch is operated when the seat
is at the exit position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit func-
tion
The shift lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory
switches (1 and 2) will blink once when
the function is canceled, and the indicator
lights will blink twice when the function is
activated. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to
a stored memory position. Keep the SET switch pressed for more than 10 seconds
to turn on or off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the
“Lift Steering
Wheel on Exit” key or“Slide Driver Seat
Back on Exit” key is turned to ON or OFF in
the “Comfort” settings. (See “Vehicle
information and settings” in the“4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systems” section.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if
the fuse opens, the entry/exit function will
not work though this function was set on
before. In such a case, after connecting the
battery or replacing with a new fuse, open
and close the driver’s door more than two
times after the ignition switch is turned
from the ON position to the LOCK position.
The entry/exit function will be activated.
