Infiniti Qx70 2016 Owner's Manual
Information Provided by:
(3,1)
Foreword
Information Provided by:
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
your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer. The
Warranty Information Booklet contents
provide complete information about all
GUID-2A3E000D-12ED-4DE3-A596-A8B7048A6C6C
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.
READ FIRST — THEN DRIVE SAFELY
GUID-052B6E2D-6336-4EC4-9EBE-86A419A6E972
Before driving your vehicle, read your
Owner’s Manual carefully. This will ensure
familiarity with controls and maintenance
requirements, assisting you in the safe
operation of your vehicle.

ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD
DRIVING

differently from an ordinary passenger
car because it has a higher center of
gravity. As with other vehicles with
features of this type, failure to operate
this vehicle correctly may result in loss of
control or an accident. Be sure to read
“On-pavement and off-road driving precautions”, “Avoiding collision and rollover” and “Driving safety precautions” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section of
this manual.
MODIFICATION OF YOUR VEHICLE
This vehicle should not be modified.
Modification could affect its performance,
safety or durability, and may even violate
governmental regulations. In addition,
damage or performance problems resulting from modification will not be covered
under the INFINITI warranties.

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 and
SSS0133
upright in the seat with both feet on the
floor and adjust the seat belt properly.
See “Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-12).
. 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.
. To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-3
vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave
children, people who require the assistance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the temperature inside a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or death
to people and pets.
. The seatback should not be reclined any
more than needed 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 of
sliding under the lap belt and being
injured is increased.

HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS
Information Provided by:
GUID-8F58192F-E0AD-4A79-A263-2FFDBCA36632
WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement the
other vehicle safety systems. They may
provide additional protection against injury
in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable
head restraint/headrest must be adjusted
properly, as specified in this section. Check
the adjustment after someone else uses the
seat. Do not attach anything to the head
restraint/headrest stalks or remove the
head restraint/headrest. Do not use the
seat if the head restraint/headrest has been
removed. If the head restraint/headrest was
removed, reinstall and properly adjust the
head restraint/headrest before an occupant
uses the seating position. Failure to follow
these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of the head restraint/headrest. This
may increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.

Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a head restraint.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a headrest.
+ Indicates the seating position is not
equipped with a head restraint or headrest
(if applicable).
. Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
. Adjustable head restraints/headrests
have multiple notches along the stalks
to lock them in a desired adjustment
position.
. The non-adjustable head restraints/
headrests have a single locking notch
to secure them to the seat frame.
. Proper Adjustment:
— For the adjustable type, align the
head restraint/headrest so the center of your ear is approximately level
with the center of the head restraint/headrest.
— If your ear position is still higher
than the recommended alignment,
place the head restraint/headrest at
the highest position.
. If the head restraint/headrest has been
removed, ensure that it is reinstalled
and locked in place before riding in that
designated seating position.
