Infiniti Qx80 2018 Owner's Manual

2018 OWNER’S MANUAL
AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
For your safety, read carefully and keep in this vehicle.
Foreword
This manual was prepared to help you understand the operation and maintenance of your vehicle so that you may enjoy many miles (kilometers) of driving pleasure. Please read through this manual before operating your vehicle.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet is included in your Owner’s literature port­folio. 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. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for details concern­ing the particular accessories with which
your vehicle is equipped.
READ FIRST — THEN DRIVE SAFELY
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.
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION REMINDERS!
Follow these important driving rules to help ensure a safe and comfortable trip for you and your passengers!
. NEVER drive under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
. ALWAYS observe posted speed lim-
its and never drive too fast for conditions.
. ALWAYS give your full attention to
driving and avoid using vehicle fea­tures or taking other actions that could distract you.
. ALWAYS use your seat belts and
appropriate child restraint systems. Pre-teen children should be seated in
the rear seat.

the proper use of vehicle safety features to all occupants of the vehicle.
. ALWAYS review this Owner’s Man-
ual for important safety information.
ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF­ROAD DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger car because it has a higher center of gravity for off-road use. 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
Installing an aftermarket On-Board Di­agnostic (OBD) plug-in device that uses the port during normal driving, for example remote insurance company monitoring, remote vehicle diagnostics, telematics or engine reprogramming, may cause interference or damage to vehicle systems. We do not recommend or endorse the use of any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices, unless specifically approved by INFINITI. The vehicle war­ranty may not cover damage caused by any aftermarket plug-in device.
WHEN READING THE MANUAL

Features and equipment in your vehicle may vary depending on model, trim level, options selected, order, date of pro­duction, region or availability. Therefore, you may find information about features or equipment that are not included or installed on your vehicle.
All information, specifications and illustra­tions in this manual are those in effect at the time of printing. INFINITI reserves the right to change specifications, performance, de­sign or component suppliers without notice and without obligation.

SEATS
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 upright in the seat with
SSS0133
both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly. See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-18).
. 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 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.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-3
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 positioner” (P.3-39) 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:
Moving the switch will slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position.
Reclining:
Move the recline switch the desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback forward again, move the switch 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 “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-18).) Also, the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the
forward or backward
backward until
SSS1051
vehicle is stopped and the transmission is in the P (Park) position.
1-4 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS1052
Seat lifter:
1. Pull up or push down the adjusting switch to adjust the seat height until the desired position is achieved.
2. Tilt up or down the adjusting switch to adjust the front angle of the seat until the desired position is achieved (for driver’s seat).
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.
