4. Allow the belt to retract. Pull up on the belt
to remove any slack in the belt. 5. Before placing the child in the child re-
straint, use force to tilt the child restraint
from side to side, and tug it forward to make
sure that it is securely held in place. It
should not move more than 1 inch.
6. Check that the retractor is in the automatic
locking mode by trying to pull more belt out
of the retractor. If you cannot pull any more
belt webbing out of the retractor, the belt is
in the automatic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure that the child restraint
is properly secured prior to each use. If the
belt is not locked, repeat steps 3 through 6. After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt is allowed to wind back into the
retractor, the automatic locking mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled; the seat belt only
locks during a sudden stop or impact.

LATCH (LOWER ANCHORS AND
TETHER FOR CHILDREN)
SYSTEM
WARNINGO Attach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown. If a child restraint is not se-
cured properly, your child could be
seriously injured or killed in an
accident. O Do not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using the
child restraint lower anchors. The
child restraint will not be secured
properly.
O The LATCH system anchors are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstance are
they to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
Some child restraints include two rigid or
webbing-mounted attachments that can be connected to two anchors located at certain
seating positions in your vehicle. This system
is known as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and
Tether for Children) system. This system may
also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX
compatible system. With this system, you do
not have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure
the child restraint. Your vehicle is equipped
with special anchor points that are used with
LATCH system compatible child restraints.
Check your child restraint for a label stating
that it is compatible with the LATCH system.
This information may also be in the child
restraint owner's manual. If you have such a
child restraint, refer to the illustration for the
rear seating positions equipped with LATCH
system anchors which can be used to secure
the child restraint.
The LATCH system anchors are located at the
rear of the seat cushion near the seatback. A
label is attached to the seatback to help you
locate the LATCH system anchors.
Some child restraints may also require the use
of a top tether strap. See ªTop tether strap
child restraintº later in this section for installa-
tion instructions.
When installing a child restraint, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this manual and
those supplied with the child restraint.SSS0191A SSS0223

When you install a LATCH system compatible
child restraint to the lower anchor attachments
in the rear seat, follow these steps.
WARNINGInspect the lower anchors by inserting
your fingers into the lower anchor area
and feeling to make sure there are no
obstructions over the LATCH system
anchors, such as seat belt webbing or
seat cushion material. The child re-
straint will not be secured properly if the
LATCH system anchors are obstructed.
1. To install the LATCH system compatible
child restraint, adjust the height of the child
restraint LATCH system anchor attach-
ments to the anchor points on the rear seat.
2. Insert the anchor attachments into the an-
chor points. If the child restraint is equipped
with a top tether, see ªTop tether strap child
restraintº later in this section for installation
instructions.
3. After attaching the child restraint and before
placing the child in it, use force to tilt the
child restraint from side to side and tug it
forward to make sure that the child restraint is securely held in place. It should not move
more than 1 inch.
4. Check to make sure that the child restraint
is properly secured prior to each use.
TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD
RESTRAINT
WARNING O The child restraint anchor point is
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stance is it to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses. SSS0192A

O After removing a rear seat head re-
straint for top tether installation,
store it securely to prevent it from
causing injury to passengers or dam-
age to the vehicle in case of sudden
braking or an accident. Always re-
place it and adjust properly when top
tether is no longer in use. If your child restraint has a top tether strap, it
must be secured to the anchor point provided
behind its position.
First, adjust the seat back so that it is upright.
Remove the anchor cover from the anchor
point as illustrated. Keep the removed cover in
a secure place to prevent loss or damage.
Then secure the child restraint with the top
seat belt or the LATCH system (outboard
position) as applicable.
Remove the head restraint from the seat back
if equipped with an adjustable rear head re-
straint. Store it in a secure place. Position the
top tether strap over the top of the seat back
and secure it to the tether anchor bracket that
provides the straightest installation. Tighten
the tether strap according to the manufactur-
er's instruction to remove any slack.
For best child restraint fit, see the child re-
straint installation instructions in this section
and the child restraint manufacturer's instruc-
tions. Anchor point locations Anchor points are located on the rear parcel
shelf finisher.
If you have any questions when installing a
top strap child restraint on the rear seat,
consult your INFINITI retailer for details.SSS0224

INSTALLATION ON FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT
WARNINGO Never install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat.
Supplemental air bags inflate with
great force. A rear facing child re-
straint could be struck by the supple-
mental air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child. O INFINITI recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a front
facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger
seat to the rearmost position.
O A child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.
O The three-point belt in your vehicle is
equipped with a locking mode retrac-
tor which must be used when install- ing a child restraint.
O Failure to use the retractor's locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The child
restraint could tip over or otherwise
be unsecured and cause injury to the
child in a sudden stop or collision. SSS0129
