Infiniti QX 2013 User Manual

For your safety, read carefully and keep in this vehicle.
2013 Infiniti QX 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 Owners 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 Owners 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 retailer. 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.
In addition to factory installed options, your vehicle may also be equipped with additional accessories installed by INFINITI or by your INFINITI retailer prior to delivery. It is important that you familiarize yourself with all disclosures, warnings, cautions and instructions concerning proper use of such accessories prior to operating the vehicle and/or accessory. See an INFINITI retailer for details concerning the particu­lar accessories with which your vehicle is equipped.

SEATS
are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
SSS0133
WARNING
. Do 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.
. 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 Pre­cautions on seat belt usagelater in this section.
. After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate switches or controls. Unat­tended children could become involved in serious accidents.
. The seatback should not be reclined any
more than needed for comfort. Seat belts

FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips:
. The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor stops during operation, wait 30 sec­onds, then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch
for a long period of time when the engine is off. This will discharge the battery.
See Automatic drive positionerin the 3. Pre-driving checks and adjustmentssec­tion for the seat position memory function.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to contact any moving parts to avoid possible injuries and/or damages.
Forward and backward:

SSS1053
Lumbar support:
The lumbar support feature provides lower back support to the occupants.
Push the front or back end of the switch to adjust the seatback lumbar area.
2ND ROW SEATS
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 posi­tion. If they are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an acci­dent or sudden stop.
. Properly secure all cargo to help prevent
it from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could cause personal injury.
