2011 Inﬁniti G COUPE Owner’s Manual

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 — 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 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 yourvehicle toan INFINITIretailer. TheWarranty Information Booklet contents provide complete information about all warranties covering this vehicle, the requirements to keep the warranties in effectas well as the INFINITIRoadside Assistance program.

Additionally, a separate Customer Care and Lemon LawInformation Bookletwill explainhow to resolve any concerns you may have with your vehicle, as well as clarify your rights under your state’s lemon law.

SEATS

● The seatback should not be reclined further than necessary for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seatback is reclined,the risk ofsliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.

● Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. Thiscan be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it andreceive neck orother 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 feetonthe floorand adjustthe seatbelt properly. See “PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE” later in this section.
