Your INFINITI represents a new way of
thinking about vehicle design. It integrates advanced engineering and superior craftsmanship with a simple, refined
aesthetic sensitivity associated with traditional Japanese 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 your INFINITI to
the fullest, we encourage you to read this
Owner’s Manual immediately. It explains
all of the features, controls and performance characteristics of your INFINITI; it
also provides important instructions and
safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet
can be found in your Owner’s literature
portfolio. The INFINITI Service and Maintenance Guide explains details about maintaining and servicing your vehicle. Always
carry it with you when you take your
INFINITI to an authorized retailer. The
portfolio contents provide complete information about all warranties covering this
vehicle, the periodic maintenance re-
quired to keep 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.
INFINITI is dedicated to providing a satisfying ownership experience for as long as
you own your car. Should you have any

WARNING
ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT (front
seats)
WARNING
O Always adjust the head restraints prop-
erly as specified in the previous section.
Failure to do so can reduce the effectiveness of the active head restraint.
O Active head restraints are designed to
supplement other safety systems. Always wear seat belts. No system can
SEAT BELTS
prevent all injuries in any accident.
O Do not attach anything to the head re-
straint stalks. Doing so could impair active head restraint function.
The active head restraint moves forward
utilizing the force that the seatback receives from the occupant in a rear-end
collision. The movement of the head restraint helps support the occupant’s head
by reducing its backward movement and
helping absorb some of the forces that
may lead to whiplash type injuries.
Active head restraints are effective for collisions at low to medium speeds in which
it is said that whiplash injury occurs
most.
Active head restraints operate only in certain rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head restraints return to their
original positions.
Properly adjust the active head restraints
as described in the previous section.
PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
If you are wearing your seat belt properly
adjusted, and you are sitting upright and
well back in your seat, your chances of
being injured or killed in an accident
and/or the severity of injury may be
greatly reduced. INFINITI strongly encourages you and all of your passengers to
buckle up every time you drive, even if
your seating position includes a supplemental air bag.
Most states, provinces or territories require that seat belts be worn at all times
when a vehicle is being driven.
SSS0186
ARMREST (if so equipped)
Pull the armrest forward until it is horizontal.
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-9
WARNING
O Every person who drives or rides in this
vehicle should use a seat belt at all
times. Children should be properly restrained in the rear seat and, if appropriate, in a child restraint.
O The seat belt should be properly ad-
justed to a snug fit. Failure to do so may
reduce the effectiveness of the entire restraintsystem and increasethe
SSS0136A
chance or severity of injury in an accident. Serious injury or death can occur if
the seat belt is not worn properly.
O Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never
run 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.
O 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.
O Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely
fastened to the proper buckle.
O Do not wear the seat belt inside out or
twisted. Doing so may reduce its effectiveness.
O Do not allow more than one person to
use the same seat belt.
O Never carry more people in the vehicle
than there are seat belts.
O 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
by an INFINITI dealer.
O Once the pre-tensioner seat belt has ac-
tivated, it cannot be reused and must be
replaced together with the retractor. See
an INFINITI dealer.
1-10 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS0134ASSS0016
O Removal and installation of the pre-
tensioner seat belt system components
should be done by an INFINITI dealer.
O All seat belt assemblies, including re-
tractors and attaching hardware, should
be inspected after any collision by an
INFINITI dealer. INFINITI recommends
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
properly. Seat belt assemblies not in
use during a collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damageor
improper operation is noted.
O All child restraints and attaching hard-
ware should be inspected after any collision. Always follow the restraint manufacturer’s inspection instructions and replacement recommendations. The child
restraints should be replaced if they are
damaged.

Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-11
CHILD SAFETY
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:
O Rear-facing child restraint
O Front-facing child restraint
O Booster seat
The proper restraint depends on the
child’s size. Generally, infants (up to
about 1 year and less than 20 lb (9 kg)
should be placed in rear-facing child restraints. Front-facing child restraints are
available for children who outgrow rearfacing 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.
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 US states and provinces of Canada require the use of approved child restraints
for infants and small children. (See “Child
restraints” later in this section.)
Also, there are other types of child restraints available for larger children for
additional protection.
INFINITI recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear seat
if possible. According to accident statistics, 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
system (air bag system) for the front pas-
1-12 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
WARNING
senger. See “Supplemental Restraint
System” later in this section for precautions.
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
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
You should choose a child restraint that
fits your vehicle and always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
Small children
Children that are over 1 year old and
weigh between 20 lb (9 kg) and 40 lb (18
kg) can be placed in a forward facing
child restraint. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for minimum and
maximum weight and height recommendations. INFINITI recommends that small
children be placed in child restraints that
comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards or Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards. You should choose a
child restraint that fits your vehicle and
always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
