FOREWORD
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 Ð from the way it looks and drives to the high level of dealer 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 is included 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 vehicle to an INFINITI dealer. The Warranty Information Booklet contents provide complete information about all warranties covering this vehicle, the requirements 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.

SEATS
SSS0133
WARNING
cDo not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. 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.
cFor 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 ªPRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGEº later in this section.
cAfter adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
cDo not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate switches or controls. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.
1-2 Safety Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips
cThe power seat motor has an auto-reset overload protection circuit. If the motor stops during operation, wait 30 seconds, then reactivate the switch.
cDo not operate the power seat switch for a long period of time when the engine is off. This will discharge the battery.
See ªFRONT SEATSº in the ª3. Pre-driving checks and adjustmentsº section for the seat position memory function.
SSS0682
Forward and backward
Moving the switch s1 forward or backward will slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position.
Reclining
Move the recline switch s2 backward until the desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback forward again, move the switch s2 forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of the seatback for occupants of different sizes for added comfort and to help obtain proper seat belt fit. (See ªPRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGEº later in this section.) Also, the seatback
can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is parked.
SSS0673
Seat lifter
Push the front or rear end of the switch up or down to adjust the angle of the front portion or height of the seat.

FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD
RESTRAINTS
WARNING
cAlways adjust the head restraints properly as specified in the previous section. Failure to do so can reduce the effectiveness of the active head restraint.
cActive head restraints are designed to supplement other safety systems. Always wear seat belts. No system can prevent all injuries in any accident.
cDo not attach anything to the head restraint 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.

SEAT BELTS
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 with both feet on the floor, 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 U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territories specify that seat belts be worn at all times when a vehicle is being driven.
Safety Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-11
SSS0136A
SSS0134A
WARNING
cEvery 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.
cThe seat belt should be properly adjusted to a snug fit. Failure to do so may reduce the effectiveness of the entire restraint system and increase the chance or severity of injury in an accident. Serious injury or death can occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
cAlways 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.
cPosition 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.
cBe sure the seat belt tongue is securely fastened to the proper buckle.
cDo not wear the seat belt inside out or twisted. Doing so may reduce its effectiveness.
